Bound To You Volume One is the first book in a three part novella series by Vanessa Brooke. A chance meeting on a plane between sexy playboy Nicholas and Rebecca sets off a series of events in which fate keeps bringing them together. Rebecca is recovering from a breakup with her ex fiancee and Nicholas is everything on her "run like hell" list of qualities but life has other plans. She has come to New York to find herself and her dream job but will she find something more?I knew I was going to like Rebecca from the very first page, she is immediately shown to be feisty and strong which are two of my favorite qualities in a female character. She has her moments of insecurity like most women but she knows what she deserves and stands up for herself. This is a short novella so I didn't really get a good feel for Nicholas's character yet but so far he comes off like an arrogant playboy who feels as though he can just take whatever he wants. While the plot feels like a few novels I've read before and is sort of predictable it is still very well done.I feel that Rebecca's character is strong enough to make this plot stand out against other similar stories. I can't say too much without giving a spoiler but the last interaction between Rebecca and Nicholas in this volume was priceless, I laughed out loud while tempted to yell "you go girl". I'm excited to see how their relationship is going to develop with their white hot chemistry considering there is a huge obstacle between them. It's obvious that once they get together the sex is going to be scorching and I can't wait, I just hope Rebecca's character stays strong and true to herself!REVIEWED BY JAYMEE O'NEIL PINDAR FOR SUMMER'S BOOK BLOG
