I will be honest with you, this book is like finding a treasure in the middle of a garage sale.  When I first started reading it, I was expecting a funny love story, what I got was intense feelings and two new characters that I adore.  While there are a lot of references regarding the Fifty Shades series in the book and to be honest, I found myself having the same feelings for this book as I did Fifty Shades, don't be tricked into thinking this is an attempt to be a knock off of that series.  This series is strong enough to stand on its own merits and I for one am so thankful I found this book.Becca is a single mom, raising her daughter Morgan, living at the B&B; she owns and runs.  She is content with her life, although she knows she needs to spend more mommy time with Morgan, she is good.  After her abusive marriage to her ex husband came to an end when he went missing during war, she moved on to establish herself as a strong woman who could take care of the needs her and her daughter had.  She created a family with her employees. There was nothing she wouldn't do for any of those in her life.Grayson, the nephew to one of the employees named Hazel, came for a visit.  Hazel had never had children and raised Grayson from an early age after he was left orphaned.  He is an Englishman who has the ego and no sugar coating policy.  He is also a successful businessman who prides himself on going after what he wants with persistence and stubbornness.........and he wants Becca the minute he sees her.  So I am sure you can guess that as the book goes on, his nickname becomes Gray and believe me it fits him.Not going to give you any spoilers, believe me the story itself deserves to be read with a fresh pair of eyes so you can absorb every single detail, but I will say this was a relationship that moves FAST.  It is like they cram ten years of living into two days.  The ups and downs, the fights and make up sessions, all just fit those two characters.  I laughed at them, especially when you could tell he wanted to say make a reference to what his palms were feeling when he was getting frustrated with her, to her comments about the multiple personalities of Becca/Sybil that were flowing through her head.I LOVE this book and I had mixed emotions at the end.  It wasn't a huge cliff hanger thank God, and I was thrilled to know there would be more of these characters coming my way, but I want to know what happen to Stace, I want to know where George is, I want to know what is going on with Ray.  Will Hazel find happiness, where is Melissa?  So many questions that will have to wait till the next book, but I am happy to wait if it means I get another book by this author with this family of characters.  It felt like I had my warm Fifty Shade blanket around me once again and I could just lose myself in the domineering male and the strong willed, fire cracker female.  I could just sit back and watch the fireworks and enjoy the show.  I HIGHLY recommend this book to you readers.  It is beyond five stars for me.Reviewed by Tbird for Crystal’s Many Reviewers*Copy provided for honest review*
