Little did each of them know they have been the stars in each others erotic fantasies since the day they met.
I grabbed this book off Amazon for free when I knew that I would be seeing this author at an author signing.
I love novella’s because they give you a feeling for an author and their series. If I like a novella for a series I am more inclined to read a whole book in the series. Well this book gave me a great bit of insight to this authors writing. I gotta tell ya, I am super excited to read more!
So this short but sweet story does end in kinda a cliffhanger but not really a cliff hanger?? Does that make sense?? In a way this book is set up for as a serial, IMO, then a novella…does that kinda clarify my comments about it being cliff hangery???
Annabelle and Jackson have had it bad for each other for a long time. When they both end up staying at Annabelle’s family cabin at the same time and don’t know it….wow baby does it get steamy.
I loved that we, the reader, knew both the characters were at the house together but it took a few chapters for the characters to discover it and WHAT A WAY TO DISCOVER IT!!!
This is a super quick, steamy read but one I can’t wait to finish!
