Shelby Jefferson can’t wait to get out of the city, and back to her country roots. She moved to Atlanta for a guy who promptly left her, and the last thing she wants is to fall for another man who might make her want to stay. But Eric is nothing if not persistent, and before long she’s inside his arms, in his bed, and falling for him. Hard. But when history repeats itself, she’s left having to choose between a man and herself…again.
MY REVIEW:
Very cute book. I really enjoyed the transformation of the relationship between Shelby Jefferson and Eric Hamilton.
It was cute how they lived in the same apartment building and worked at the same courthouse from time to time. Not to mention Shelby had many a lustful dream about Eric. Yet, he never knew she existed until opposing counsel was late to court as was she.
Shelby was a few steps ahead of Brian the other lawyer Eric was to argue against. When she walked in he lost his breath and maybe even forgot to breathe. He thought she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen and couldn’t figure out why he had never seen her before. Especially, when she went to the stenographer’s seat.
He had to be asked by the judge twice if he was ready. So, once he cleared his head of her, thinking only of his client, he decided he would make a point to talk to her later after court. He went on to win the case. By the time, he talked to his client and Brian he turned to talk to her and she was gone.
He arrives home after being driven in an Atlanta rain storm he makes it to the elevator thankfully. When he enters, he notices a soaking wet woman and it’s her. He engages her in conversation which he isn’t going well at creating. He gives her his coat since she is wearing a white blouse which is see through now. It makes their conversation a little smoother but she points out that they already know each other because they have lived in the same building for over a year or so and he never noticed her or even said hello. Not to mention, why would she want to get involved with him when he has been with a different woman every Friday and Saturday night yet never has she seen one return again.
He doesn’t apologize, he just states he doesn’t do relationships he doesn’t have the time and he likes to relax. See how and what they do with the new-found info about each other. This is about the Hamilton family and how they interact as siblings too. I give this: 5 stars. Provided by netgalley.com.
