Something in the Air by L.H. Cosway
Michaela Olsson has found her soulmate in James Khan. There are just a few teeny, tiny problems…
One, he’s her boss, two, he’s too old for her, and three, well, he happens to be engaged to somebody else.
She’ll take this crush and bury it deep. She’ll take it to her grave. James already belongs to another, so she’ll lock her secret up so tight it’ll be deprived of oxygen, suffocate and die.
Too dark?
Matters are only made worse when James asks her to move into his newly purchased house to supervise the renovations. Working together every day is bad enough, but living in a house he owns is far more intimate than she expected. Then, when James decides to call off his wedding without any explanation whatsoever, Michaela wonders if perhaps her feelings for him aren’t as one-sided as she thought.
While he was engaged James shared a flat with his fiancΓ©e, but now he’s moving into the house that Michaela has been living in by herself. She hadn’t intended for it to happen, but the place has started to feel like home, and with the object of her affections suddenly sharing her living space, things become infinitely more complicated. And heated.
Soon Michaela learns she might’ve had more to do with James calling off his engagement than she could’ve possibly imagined.
Something in the Air is book #2 in the Running on Air Series but can also be read as a standalone.
Caroline's Review
πππππ
This was a sweet and steamy story with two characters with beautiful souls.
"He had no idea of the light he emitted, attracting lonely, emotionally malnourished, forgotten creatures like me from the shadows."
Michaela has had a massive crush on James since the first time she met him. There are a couple of reasons why she'll never act on it. One, he's one of her bosses and, two, he's engaged to his long-term girlfrind. However, as time goes on, they form a firm friendship and spend a lot of time chatting about all sorts of things.
"Her arresting brown eyes were so open and sweet. Their effect on me was unexpected, like a gut punch."
When James suffers a tragic loss, he also makes other life-changing decisions. Decisions that mean that the spark that has always been him and Michaela has a chance to burn into something much brighter.
"I never knew my heart wanted something from her. Something it never had."
Michaela and James were so sweet together. Both were beautiful, gentle souls who had so much to give. I adored their enjoyment of each other's company and the trust they built that was pretty unshakeable. In spite of everything he's going through, I loved that James found solace and peace in Michaela's presence. James was always the quiet, responsible one in their group but he was a sexy beast in the bedroom! Adored this story so much!
