About this ebook

From the author behind the Hilary Duff film, Beauty & The Briefcase comes a sexy, angsty, and heartfelt second-chance, holiday romance that asks the question: Can you ever be friends with an ex?


Michael

I did the right thing convincing Emma to sever her small-town tie to the island

that would only drag her back.

And for years, I’d convinced myself I was the hero in all this,

until I couldn’t convince myself any longer.


I won’t make the same mistake twice.

She thinks she can keep me in the friend zone?

Well, we’ll see about that.

I need Emma, body and soul.

And despite her elaborate attempt to conceal the truth,

I know she feels the same.

This time, I’m not leaving the island without her.


Emma

I’ve never had much luck resisting Michael Kavanagh.

That’s why I locked my heart up long ago, and threw away the key.

But ever since Michael re-emerged, I can’t stop thinking about him.

Which is pretty bad luck, since I’ve spent the last ten years forgetting him.


Suddenly, my cozy, satisfying life feels like a sham.

And before I know it, every rule I’d made to uphold it gets broken.

I know I’m destined for heartbreak if I let him in again,

And yet, It’s impossible to ignore the effect he has on me

from that very first whiff of his cologne.


Terrifyingly, every attempt I make to pretend I’m immune falls flat,

because it soon becomes clear he not only melts me with a single glance,

but knows me better than anyone.


But that doesn’t mean we can’t keep this platonic.

Even if the mere sight of his shoulder blade beneath his shirt makes me melt.

Right?

I am sure it is a good read but I had to stop at page 78. too much inner dialogue for me to enjoy the story. Get on with it!

I couldn't even make it to page 78. So boring.

About the author

Daniella Brodsky is the bestselling author of a dozen contemporary romance novels--one of which has been adapted by Disney as the film, Beauty & The Briefcase, starring Hilary Duff. (I know, right?!)

She writes sexy, swoony romance with hot alphas, which often takes readers into far-off destinations. This is because she's lived all over the world, from New York to London to Sydney and Honolulu. She lives in Australia, and lots of her alpha males are Australian because let's face it: they're hot. And the accent doesn't hurt either. That's why she married one.
