Publisher Description
Freshly graduated from college and ready for a new start, Effie Jacobs leaves small town Michigan and heads to New York City to work in accounting for a major record label--the last thing she ever thought she'd be doing. She's left a world of drama behind her, eager to confront her new reality head on and make it on her own.
After getting over the initial shock of NYC and her new job, Effie's life starts to become more manageable, calmer, simpler. But all of that changes at once when HE steps into the picture, songwriter/performer/producer, Jack Teller.
He's enigmatic, gorgeous, and wealthy, the glowing product of so many years of hard work and limitless natural talent, a man so fantastic that he can have literally any woman he wants. And after a highly unexpected encounter, Jack wants Effie--and she can't understand why.
Effie's cautious, yet dangerously intrigued by his unremitting advances, his flourishes of passion, worried that she'll find herself in a cat-and-mouse game of steamy emotions. Jack is full of surprises, and she's not ready to give into him--or herself--so easily.
The only problem is, when they're together, it's like perfection.
Even with the challenges...
Even with the secrets...
Even with the hurt...
Can Effie get past her powerful desire for independence and give herself to the one that wants her the most? Maybe what Jack offers is the exactly thing she's been looking for all along...
Excerpt from Haze:
Why is it that we resist our feelings when they become so clear to us? Giving in made me feel warm and loved, while fighting back only dropped me violently back into reality. It was like falling from a plane to the ground without a parachute, yet it was the so-called "logical" and "rational" thing to do.
I just didn't make any sense to myself...

Customer Reviews
Good book
A little drawn out but love the story and the ending.
This book has potential.
The emotional connection is rushed. Another heroine who has no control of her body and gets lost in lust. I couldn’t get a sense of who the male is.
Not Worth the Money!
Just a terrible book all around. The writing was redundant and tried far too hard to be profound. Some her analogies about life lasted pages longer than they should have. There were plenty of grammatical and spelling mistakes. Also, the main characters had no chemistry unless there was a sex scene, but even those were sometimes awkward and underdeveloped. Finally, the book was just boring! The writing was so poor it was hard to read sometimes and nothing really happened! The last quarter of the book was much better than anything else because exciting things were happening. I'm a huge fan of basically any romance novel, but this was just not worth it. Don't waste your money!
