I received an ARC copy for an honest reviewI have to say this is totally different from Braxton's novella's. Don't get me wrong I still loved it.This is some what of a story about 2 people from different sides of the tracks. That being said it doesn't stop them from getting what they want.Jake and Clover knew each other from when Jake started going to his Aunt Tammy's house for the summer. Clover and her brother R.J where Tammy's neighbors. Each summer would bring different adventures for the trio. With each summer they got older and with getting older Jake became aware of Clover. Clover being the typical teenager didn't see Jake how Jake saw Clover. Well not until this last summer. Clover's car broke down. Her and R.J had to walk it. Along comes Jake who Clover didn't recognize until he told her who he was. He grew up, he was toned, tanned and sexy. That day their friendship blossomed into something great.They took things slow, didn't rush, they talked about their feelings for one another. Jake was a man and stood up for Clover when she needed him. All this time with Jake made Clover realize that she loved him from when they were kids.I loved this story. How they had history of growing up together granted it was just the summers. But they saw how each other grew through the years. Jake became a man. Clover a woman with determination. Like I said in the beginning of my review this is totally different from Braxton's novellas. There is romance just not erotic. I love romance though. I did have tears form a few times and I laughed a few times. Jake and Clovers story seemed like I was watching it play out in front of me. The situations they were in and the outcome from them. The ending was great I just wished Braxton didn't end it like that LOL!! How did she end it? You have read Clover and find out for yourself.
