I wont lie that I bought this Novella purely for the cover! I mean the cover and the title "Try Me" well who could resist I obliged and gave him it a try!I so was NOT disappointed!What happens in Vegas.....can lead to romance.It took one wild night for Sergeant Jeremy Addison to realize that Vegas? Was a bad idea.Bloody. Bruised. Dehydrated. Abandoned in the desert, and left to stagger down the road. The only way this leave could get worse was if his savior was his ex-best friend's sister...and the girl he'd loved since childhood.Best friend's little sister, high school sweetheart,best friends turned enemies... this combo makes this the perfect story.Jeremy, a U.S. Marine, who's wounded in more ways than one, inside and out.He is the perfect wounded hero. Jeremy is back on leave, having a not so grand a time. He picks the wrong fight and wakes up eating dust in the outskirts of Vegas. Remember The Hangover? Well, the bad news for him is he's got no one else but himself, no car, no water, no phone, and it's freaking hot. Out of nowhere a good samaritan stops by to help. Surprise, surprise, the good samaritan is no other than Erica. Erica! Of all people.Erica is just as stunned as Jeremy is. What are the chances of finding one's high school sweetheart, still single, smoking hot,after so many years have passed?The last person Erica expected to find on the roadside was her high school crush. She hadn't seen Jeremy in seven years--ever since the night he said he loved her, and she ran away.Erica is wounded the same as Jeremy, inside and out. She's got a secret, and hell will freeze over before she even lets Jeremy in, or anyone for that matter, but especially not Jeremy. Losing him then had been a mistake, but wanting him now could be catastrophic if he discovered the secret that chased every other man from her life. Can Erica resist his advance or will she surrender and give love a try?It takes one night, a kiss, untold truths, to realize the love they feel for each other is twice as strong as before. They lead very different lives, and must make the right choice.For a Novella I did not expect so much story in such a short read! It was so sweet yet heart breaking at the same time and sexy!LOVED it looking forward to reading many many more from Diane Alberts!
