Ahhh I liked this one. It was my first time reading Yeko and she kept me very entertained, turning the pages and ignoring the housework much longer than I should have.A Man to Trust was the perfect combination of an exciting suspense and a steamy romance as Jake tries to keep Angela safe from those out to stop her testimony in a drug case. One of the things I really liked was that the story starts somewhat in the middle of things with the big event that sparked the story already having happened and the two having encountered each other months earlier because of it.  It was a different start to a story but never felt confusing and really just worked.The attraction and chemistry between Jake and Angela was fantastic and the sex scenes were pretty delicious. I love when you can really feel the energy zinging between two characters and that happened quite often between these two.As much as I liked them as a couple, though, I really enjoyed all of the things standing in their way. There's some definite drama going on since, you know, he thinks she's a prime suspect in her husband's drug business and she's hiding certain things about her past from him. It was fun watching them each deal with that aspect of the relationship versus their undeniable attractions and seeing how they'd react to certain things that came up.Even with an"oh my god you A**!" moment on his part and a slightly "too stupid to live" one on Angela's these two were just great characters and had me on their sides the whole time. I loved all of their interactions from the sweet and sexy to the tension filled ones that popped up because of his suspicions about her to the heartbreaking ones as Angela confides in him about her past. They're just likable characters that fit well together and you want to see happy.Overall, I really had a good time with A Man to Trust. The writing flowed easily and so many of the characters won me over. I really liked that even though there was an ongoing danger the romance between Jake and Angela played a very prominent part that I thought felt natural. Things did get a little too "perfect" for me in the happily ever after department towards the very end but even with that I'm very excited about trying out another of Yeko's books in the future.
