All she can think about is getting him naked, but she knows that can never happen. Because, Erica has a secret.Jeremy is still in love with Erica, but when she denies him again he leaves. He returns to Las Vegas determined to get her off his mind. But, he ends up running into her brother. Who just happens to be his ex best friend. He tells Jeremy some things about Erica that shakes Jeremy's world.You will have to read the book to learn what happens from there. I will tell you that they get a very sweet HEA.Try Me is a novella, and I rarely give novella's 4 stars. I just don't feel like you can get a full story with less than 200 pages, but Ms. Albert's proved me wrong.She did not try to stuff a full novel into just a few pages. She wrote a short story. She filled it with just enough information to give us what we needed to know. It was a great read, and I really liked it.Would I have liked to have had more. Yes, and I hope that she gives us their full story at a later date.Would I recommend this book? Yes
