Chloe Peterson is having a bad night. A really bad night. The large bruise on her cheek can attest to that. And when her car skids off the side of a wet country road straight into a ditch, she's convinced even the gorgeous guy who rescues her in the middle of the rain storm must be too good to be true. Or is he?
As a successful photographer who frequently travels around the world, Chase Sullivan has his pick of beautiful women, and whenever he's home in San Francisco, one of his seven siblings is usually up for causing a little fun trouble. Chase thinks his life is great just as it is--until the night he finds Chloe and her totaled car on the side of the road in Napa Valley. Not only has he never met anyone so lovely, both inside and out, but he quickly realizes she has much bigger problems than her damaged car. Soon, he is willing to move mountains to love--and protect--her, but will she let him?
Chloe vows never to make the mistake of trusting a man again. Only, with every loving look Chase gives her--and every sinfully sweet caress--as the attraction between them sparks and sizzles, she can't help but wonder if she's met the only exception. And although Chase didn't realize his life was going to change forever in an instant, amazingly, he isn't the least bit interested in fighting that change. Instead, he's gearing up for a different fight altogether...for Chloe's heart.
My thoughts:
I read to page 100 and then I had like 100 pages left so I thought why not and finished. But I did start skimming a bit after a while.
Why did it not work?
First Chloe is on the run from an ex. She is all men suck, but then when Chase stops to give her a lift she goes with him. A complete stranger. She then starts thinking about him and pleasures herself in the bath.
Chase meets her and is all wounded woman! I protect! He is all she is so lovely and I am so in love with her! Sure you are, you just met her, you do not know her, but she looks damn lovely and you wanna do her.
So she stays over in a guest cottage. She stays longer and they have sex. Sure, you do. You are only afraid of men and now you jump Chase cos of his washboard abs. And cos he is so pretty.
So they do it a lot. Talk much, nah. They do it and work.
I am sorry but I did not believe these two fell in love. She was scarred. He fell too fast. I am SO over insta love.
Conclusion:
It was only ok, but I could have done without the whole I AM IN LOVE. No you are NOT. You have barely spoken to her! Would I read more by this author? Nope.
