 Release Date: September 28 I haven’t seen him in over a decade, but Joshua Luca can still get to me. And I hate it. At twenty-nine, I’m a doctor and I’ve travelled the world, but just the thought of him has me sliding my sweaty palms down my jeans and wishing I could steady my racing heartbeat. Joshua was an almost obsession until, at seventeen, he cost me my future. In one night, I grew up and let go of my silly crush. My infatuation for Joshua is dead and buried. Forever. It doesn’t matter that he’s my new flat mate. Or that he still has that same sexy smile. I barely notice how that, despite his billions, he’s the kindest man I know. Or that when he touches me, a thousand tiny fireworks explode all over my body. I’m completely over Joshua Luca. |

Deal.” Hartford Kent is back in England after spending years abroad with Médecins Sans Frontières. She’s got a new job to go to, although no place to live, until her interfering mother organises for her to stay with an old childhood friend. Well, ‘friend’ is a fairly loose term for the beautiful young man she was obsessed with as a teenager. She’s spent years suppressing her feelings and she’s dreading being back in his orbit. However, she pulls up her big girl’s pants and is determined to keep her ‘forcefield’ in place, but that pesky dimple of his tests her strength. ”I don’t like surprises. But everything about Hartford’s high cheekbones, full pink lips, and very grown-up body had knocked me off my feet.” Joshua Luca was dreading having someone living in his space until he saw Hartford again. No longer the awkward, scowling girl with braces and a massive bun, but an undeniably beautiful and interesting young woman. Alarm bells ring for him from the moment he set eyes on her and, as the days and weeks pass, he was right to be wary, as she evokes feelings in him that he hasn’t felt in a long time. ”The urge to pull the door from its hinges and wrap my arms around her was close to overwhelming. I just wanted hold her.” I adored this story with all the chemistry, cake, and perfect-temperature baths! The attraction between Joshua and Hartford was immediate, even though each privately tried to tamp down their feelings. I loved how genuine and unfiltered Hartford was and, in spite of her crush on Joshua, how comfortable she felt with him. After being burnt by a previous relationship, Joshua was commitment-shy and didn’t trust easily. I adored the friendship they built between them – they had fantastic rapport and fun banter. When they took that first tentative step across the line, wowsers! Gotta say that that first kiss – which wasn’t even on the lips – was titillatingly sexy! I adored Joshua’s friendship with his best friends, and I loved how their partners welcomed Hartford into their group. I love that this author’s novels are generally feel-good and pretty hot, with just enough angst to keep things interesting, without making you dread what’s to come! Loved it!
