Release date: 16th Feb 2021

My rating: 💋💋💋💋

I’ve signed numerous players to my family’s agency—I assumed winning over my next client would be just as easy.

The last thing I expected was to run into the boy who took my first kiss and broke my heart: only now Drew Bowman is all grown up.

Sexy. Scandal-tainted. Second-string. The crush I never got over.

I tell myself work is the reason I can’t get him out of my head. I tell him his talent far outweighs his position, and I know I can help. I lie and lie, because admitting that I want a second chance at my first love is impossible.

Some lines cannot be crossed, and ours was drawn in the sand years ago.

***

I’m supposed to hate her.

I’ve been told so time and again for ten years - her father ruined our family, smeared my name before my career even began.

But that’s not what I’m feeling now.

Brexton Kincade just strode out of my memories and onto my field.

Driven. Determined. Grown up. The Capulet to my Montague.

Being with her would be an unforgivable sin against my father, but I can’t resist the pull between us. Even if it means hiding what we have. Even if it means confronting the secrets I’ve always feared were lies.

Overall Opinion :
Admirably , this book started off real good. But then it sort of changed. There was no angst. I mean there wasn't a lot of angst. After reading the blurb I expected an enemies to lovers type of romance , but what I got was more of a friends to lovers one. It was a good contemporary romance and I think that all contemporary romance lovers will definitely love it but it just wasn't for me.

I completed the book because the author kept me hooked with the suspense of the history of the main characters and it was a good one time read for me!! A Definite recommendation to all the contemporary romance lovers out there!
