How would you feel about yourself and life itself, if after loving someone for half your life you were to break up with him? I know exactly how I would feel... lost. Would I be able to love again, immediately after the breakup? That is the issue compelling this story. Can you trust the attraction, love, lust that you feel for someone soon after such a break-up? How do you move on and trust again.Our heroine, Rebecca, is going through a period of self-doubt. Her dream is to have someone love her completely, someone to call her own who responds to her, nurtures and protects her. Julian has made a commitment to his wife and Rebecca wants him to honor it. She could not live with herself if she were to become the other woman and destroy of what remains of that marriage. At the same time, this need to be loved leaves her vulnerable. When an attractive man like Alain comes on to her and makes her feel she is his world, Rebecca finds it irresistible and is hopeful she can begin to have a new life where her dream might come true.It does become a little difficult to suspend disbelief when the timeline in the story is just a matter of hours, days and short weeks. Breaking up, finding someone to love, making a commitment to this new love, losing this love, and having feelings for yet another man, occurring during such a short period of time, is really asking a bit too much. Regardless of this one thing, this is a compelling and erotic story that will have you hooked by the end of book #1. The characters are well defined, while maintaining the aura of mystery and secrets yet to be discovered.I really enjoyed reading this book. The 4 Stars rating is well deserved. I am enthusiastically waiting for the release of book #2 in January 2014 called No Regrets. This is a story with some very sexy alpha males that is worth reading.
