Lordy this book... the last few chapters brought tears to my eyes. Not the best representation of myself as I was in a cafe having lunch, but teary nonetheless.I love Mary Ann Rivers's style of writing, and while her first book in this series, Live, I found here prose got a bit heavy handed, this one was perfection. I loved how real Sam and Nina felt. How honest their characterizations were. As a person with ADD, it is so easy to feel overwhelmed by the day to day of living, but when given a serious task that you're interested in, can have a pinpoint focus to get the job done well. This was what I adore about Rivers. She actually makes her characters have honest feelings, emotions and intellectual issues. Are her characters Billionares who are going to sweep the heroine off her feet and give her everything she wants. NO and that is what she does to perfection. She breaks this silly new trend in romance novels and does it seemingly effortlessly.I have all the feels for this man and Nina for her struggles. Just a fantastic read and I can't wait for the next in the Burnside family series. (I am crossing my fingers for it to finally be PJ's turn, cause his adoration for Lacey is breaking my heart a little bit.)A full & proper review to come, but I wanted to capture my first thoughts at the end of reading this lovely book.
