Five years ago, Josh Tanner was an up-and-comer on Wall Street, complete with the penthouse and the migraines. But a grim cancer diagnosis made him realize there is more to life than the corner office. If only he could convince his pretty, workaholic neighbor to let loose, too. As Heather lets down her guard, Josh is surprised when he starts falling for the sweet, vulnerable woman hiding beneath those power suits. Soon, it’s Heather’s turn to convince Josh to take the biggest risk of all: love.
MY REVIEW:
We are all born with guarantee that one day we
will parish. But to be in absolute fear
that it will happen at any moment is not living. It is standing at the control booth of our
life with our finger on the pause button.
Which is not living.
Josh Tanner is just finding out he has a
new neighbor in 4C, Heather Fowler.
Although he thinks she is sexy as hell and would love to bed her he
knows his chances are slim to none. The
reason being because their first official meeting is after midnight with her
banging on his door. You see Josh is a
musician and plays in a band. His music
room buts up against her bedroom. She
was not a happy camper.
You see it was a Friday night and being
that Heather is an assistant wedding planner, she is with Wedding Belles one of
the top sought after planners in New York, meaning her Saturdays mornings start
extremely early and go very long for her.
She needed sleep. Josh banging on
his drums in a horrible beat was driving her crazy. So when she couldn’t take it anymore she decided
to give him a piece of her mind.
When Josh answered the door he was
shirtless causing Heather’s mouth to gape at his wonderful six pack. Distracting her for a moment from her
original mission. So when she did look
at his face he had a smirk which pissed her off more for being caught ogling
him. Josh was like, “Ah, 4C.” She laid in to him about the noise to which
he just seemed to laugh.
Without realizing it he had been trying to
abide by what would be helpful to his new neighbor as far as his bands practice
time. On this night though the guys were
pushing it. Even after him asking them
several times. He tried to tell them the
neighbor would not be happy when guess who came pounding. He says, “Oh!” His friend Trevor says, “That bitch from next
door.” Just as Josh opened the door.
Heather played it cool like she didn’t
hear it. Asked Josh if she had to go
through the whole speech? He said
no. When Trevor says, “Hey you want to
come in and have a beer?” Josh registers
jealousy and Heather thinks pay back by saying that she would love to have a
beer. Josh had been talking over her
saying no she has to work and couldn’t.
So imagine his surprise?
Especially when Trevor and the other two circle her and were talking and
laughing with her.
She ends up staying. When Trevor and the guys say the guys say
they want to play a song for her. Josh
wasn’t really into it but what could he do without looking like an ass? So after the mini performance she stays for a
few hours. Until Josh says something to
piss her off. So much it results in her
kissing Trevor making Josh extremely jealous and pissed. Now even though he doesn’t want a girlfriend
and all that goes with it. He can’t stop
thinking about Heather. Something from
his past keeps weighing him down.
Heather has figured that much out for herself.
Until he can be honest with himself he won’t
be able to be honest anyone else.
Especially Heather. Can he do
it? Is she worth it to him? Or is she just another girl on his carrousel.
I enjoyed this book very much. Heather is a spit fire. She does not take anything from Josh. Especially since he lives like a frat boy in
the here and now. No past and no future. I give this 5 stars. Provided by netgalley.com. Follow us at:
