Review: Promising start...unsatisfying ending

This story started interesting enough with the instant attraction between Yolanda and Lawrence but somewhere in the middle it took a turn into another direction.In the beginning the author did a good job of building up the attraction and sexual tension between the two main characters such as making excuses for Lawrence to be at her house (replace her roof, fix her cabinet, etc.) and the possiblity of other love interests but then she began rushing the story as if she wanted to get it over with or didn't know how to make the transition between them being friends to lovers. Possible story lines were introduced and then forgotten while the stories main concerns were gone over again and again.Granted, Yolanda's concern with their age difference (she's 43 and he's 30), how it would effect her relationship with his aunt (her BFF) and how others would see their relationship since she'd known him since he was 15 years old were all valid concerns but OMG the author CONSTANTLY mentioned it either through Yolanda or Lawrence.  It kind of felt like I was experiencing groundhogs day.  Trust me Ms. Williams...WE GOT IT!So much more could have been done with this book if she'd left out the reminders and built the story a bit more.Overall, not a favorite.
