About this ebook

Can I risk my future for a widower with a tool belt, a body to die for, and a heart that’s completely off limits?

First I turned down a marriage proposal, then I moved to Annapolis to open a law firm. I thought my world couldn't change any more...

Until Cade stepped into my office, smelling of sawdust with his company’s T-shirt stretched taut over his chest and biceps. Everything about him was sexy-as-sin and completely off-limits.

But I can’t risk the business I sunk my savings into by dating a client, and he won’t risk his heart.

The more we spend time together, the more I want him. Even if a relationship between us was possible, how can he give me all of him?

5 Star Review Only With You (Annapolis Harbor #1) by Lea Coll Lea Coll is a new author to me and how I have not come across her before I have absolutely no idea. However after reading Only With You I will be seeking out other books when time permits. If Only With You is any indication then this series is going to be great. From the first chapter to the last I was fully invested in Hadley Winters and Cade Morrison’s story. The writing was strong, descriptive and I could easily see myself in Annapolis Harbor, Maryland. Hadley is such a strong character who I admire and Cade was swoon worthy, a man grieving for the loss of his wife and the family he would never have. Both have emotional baggage and the family drama that Hadley has to deal with brought drama and some angst to the story line. This is a story that shows how love can conquer all and I was cheering loudly for Hadley and Cade to get their happily ever after. It was refreshing to read as Cade freely admitted he was still in the healing process and I loved how Hadley supported him. In fact their mutual support of one another really added an additional layer to the story. I am excited to read more in this series.

This is the first book I have read by Lea Coll but it certainly won’t be the last, after reading Only with You I’m struggling to understand why she hasn’t crossed my radar before now. This is book one in the new Annapolis Harbor Series and what a great start, if this book is any indication to go by this is going to be a hit series. I was captivated from the first page and there was no putting down until I had read the final line, I was engrossed in Cade Morrison and Hadley Winters story. This author has a way with words she describes the town of Annapolis Harbor so well that I felt I was there, I felt like I knew this town and it’s residents and that’s a sure sign of a great read. This romance features a couple with some emotional baggage as well as drama in their life’s but this story has the perfect mix of angst and love with characters I adored. I loved how supportive Hadley was and I loved how Cade was honest as he freely admitted he wasn’t in a position for a new love because he was still healing from his last. This is a romance about learning to move on without forgetting the past, it has wonderful characters and a great storyline and I’m really looking forward to book 2.

What a fantastic start to Lea Coll’s new series. I absolutely loved this story about Hadley and Cade. Cade lost his wife to cancer and has thrown himself into his work. Hadley comes to Annapolis to get away from her father, so she invests in a new law firm, that her friend Taylor told her about. Hadley’s first client is Cade and they have amazing chemistry. This is where the story gets good. I won’t leave any spoilers, but I will say, I loved all of these characters and I can’t wait to read the books about Avery and Dylan, Hadley’s partners in their law firm. I received an advanced reader copy of this book and this is my voluntary and honest review.
