I absolutely loved this book! S.L. Siwik is a great story teller, the characters were well written and the timeline was believable. The heroine is independent, fiesty and tough yet there is a vulnerability to her that she tries to hide. The hero is your typical Hot Alpha male that you can't resist. Audrey is a 25 year old workin 2 dead-end jobs, six days a week, struggling to make ends meet. She decides she doesn't have time for a relationship but contemplates a friends with benefits situation. She places a personal add on-line where she eventually meets Mike. Mike is a former marine and cop. He can be rude, demanding and overbearing, but he is also fiercely protective, sweet and romantic. When they meet for the first time Mike screws up big time, he apologizes but the damage is done. Mike starts showing up at the diner where she works to try and earn her forgiveness. Eventually Audrey breaks down and tells him they can be friends, but just friends and nothing more. As time goes by and their relationship builds Audrey learns why Mike acted the way he did when they first met. She learns more about his past and she reveals more about hers. She decides she wants more than just friendship, she wants the benefits now also. Now I don't want to give away any spoilers so lets just say that after family problems, problem with ex's and a life and death situation Audrey finally comes to her senses and they get their HEA. I'm sure Audrey and Mike still have many more obstacles to overcome and I cannot wait for the sequel.
