Publisher Description
When a player wants to play, he'll make you work for it.
A lot can happen in two weeks. For newly divorced Ashtyn Turner, it includes a little jail time, her ex-husband putting all her valuables in the driveway, and her discovering her cherished grandmother's pearls have been stolen. The last person she wants to call is Neil Caenon, but when he comes to her rescue, the hot lawyer is looking less like a self-centered player and more like…her hero.
Neil has a reputation with women he has well earned. The one woman who has haunted his fantasies for years is now available, and against his better judgment, he's going to break all the rules to turn his fantasy into their reality. No other man will do to her what he will. He'll see to it. But falling in love? Not even a remote possibility. He'd need a heart to do that, and he gave that up a long time ago...
Customer Reviews
Good read!
This one is hard for me to review. Its a good story and well written, I just didn't like the Hero. Unfortunately, that usually makes or breaks a book for me.
Neil is the ultimate playboy. He has a serious job as a lawyer but treats life as one big playground, enjoying woman as long as it never gets serious. While it's not my favorite type of a Hero, it's not the kiss of death for me. What I struggled with, is that we get to 73% of the book and he is admitting that Ashtyn is just a fling and he's not inlove with her. Personally, I just need more. As much as these two struggled to be together, I needed to see him at least be able to admit his feeling by this point. Part of his issues dealt with a dead ex. That just happens to be another dislike of mine. There is no cheating, just lots of denial.
While it wasn't for me, I do think this is a great book for those readers who like to read about this type of Hero. The author introduced a friend of Neil's and Logan (from the first book) and he sounds more like my type of Hero. I will check his book out if that is the direction the author is taking this series.
