Nope.
Turns out she likes arrogant, annoying, ego so big it wouldn’t fit in the ocean Eli Lennox.
Just because he saved her life he thinks it gives him permission to meddle in it. He’s determined to save her from herself.
Problem is she thinks she’s beyond saving.
She’s beautiful, intelligent, and the sexiest woman Eli had ever laid eyes on, and she turns him down flat when he asks her out.
That doesn’t happen to him often.
Or ever.
And it makes him determined to prove to her she’s worth every ounce of effort he’s going to put into winning her heart.
Eli Lennox always gets what he wants.
Caroline's Review
🌟🌟🌟🌟
Great, romantic suspense.
”Cocky alphas were her kryptonite. They had the ability to make her body ignite, her mind flee, and her heart crack.”
Eli Lennox is a man who has everything. Everything except a family. He's jaded enough to know that he's finally ready for more than a quick fling. He never expected it to come in the form of a woman who is completely opposite to his usual tastes and, indeed, to himself. A woman whose life he saves. One look at her face and he’s captivated. The fact that she wants nothing to do with him, in spite of their very palpable chemistry, piques his interest even more and he knows that she’s the one for him.
”He knew one thing for certain. Florence Harris had inserted herself into his heart, and he had no wish to dislodge her.”
Detective Florence Harris is hot on the trail of a serial killer. She can’t afford a distraction in the form of the wealthy Eli. However, he’s annoyingly persistent and the harder he tries, the more he sneaks under her skin, until she finds herself giving in. But, for a man who has lost so much, can he live with the fact that she’s a cop?
”We belong together, Florence, and I don’t care if we’ve known each other for a minute or a decade.”
This story was a nice change of pace for me. I enjoyed the suspense side of the story, as well as the love story - it was a good mix of the two. This story was also pretty much almost insta-love/lust – things happened really quickly between the two characters but I thought it was pretty believably, as Florence really fought against it in the beginning. Eli, for all his wealth and cockiness, was a solid guy. He was most determined to have Florence in his life and he worked hard to win her over. Florence had been through some terrible things in her life and I loved how Eli felt so invested in her and wanted to give her the happiest of lives, even though he had fears of his own. Overall, a really good story with just the right amount of heat, danger and love in the mix.
