![]() ![]() ![]() Saint's and Braxton's first encounter was unveiled during the first book's last chapter and it got me hooked. I really like the opposites attract trope and if we mix it with the enemies to lovers, even if as light as it is here, then it becomes just perfect. I liked this one better than the previous one, because I found the romance to be more natural and satisfying, but it still has some cons that let me down a little bit. But when my own insecurities about my self-worth threaten everything we could have, I’ll need to find a way to move past them … or I’ll lose the best thing to ever happen to me. Saint fits in with my family, my step-father loves him, and the chemistry between us shows no signs of stopping. We’re total opposites … can we really make it work for more than a night of pleasure?Īt first it seems perfect. I’ve spent my whole life working towards this moment, and I can’t let myself fall for his good looks, no matter how much I crave him.īut long hours and close quarters are a combination neither of us can resist, and soon heat at the office turns into a wicked night in bed. But there’s more to the man than a showy Porsche and killer smile. ![]() Unlike me, he’s never had to struggle for anything a day in his life … or so I think. One arrogant, materialistic, flashy problem: Saint Caldwell. ![]() Becoming a partner at Caldwell and Holton will be the crowning achievement in my hard fought career. ![]()
