Investment Banker, Maddie, is having a torrid affair with
June, one of her married work colleagues. She’s tried many times to end the
affair, but always gets sucked right back in again. This time she is really
determined to end it, she knows it can’t go on. Will Maddie be able to keep the
promise she’s made to herself?
Fitness instructor, Alex, is currently single after her
girlfriend Rita cheated on her. She’s still feeling the pain of it all and won’t
let herself get close to any woman again. Alex has moved in to an upmarket
apartment block, The Ivy, to share an apartment with her friend Nat.
Maddie’s friend Isabella persuades her to go to the body
combat class she attends. It’s here that Maddie and Alex meet for the first
time. They both feel the pull of an attraction between them. Imagine their
surprise when they bump into one another again the following morning in the
elevator of the apartment block. Even more of a surprise to find out they both
live in the same building. This surely must be a good omen. But will Maddie be
able to move on from June? Will Alex be able to move on from the pain Rita
caused her?
This is a fast paced story set in Hong Kong. Australian
Maddie, is disillusioned with her love life and is considering moving back home.
When she meets Alex, she decides to give herself one last chance at finding
love. The story hops between Maddie and Alex and leaves nothing to the
imagination, with the red hot mind blowing sex scenes.
Harper Bliss has started off the four book series running. The
story is fast paced and I read it in one sitting. Good job I had the time, I
wouldn’t have wanted to put it down.
The two characters featured, Maddie and Alex, both have hang
ups about relationships. It’s great to watch them working out whether they can
actually be in a relationship with each other. They are backed up by Maddie’s
friend Isabella and Alex’s friend Nat. The story weaves seamlessly through all
their four of their lives until it reaches the end.
All of the characters are easy to get know and interact well
with each other. It was easy for me to visualize the scenery so that I was a
part of the story, not just reading it.
I’m looking forward to the second book in the series asap.
I’ll re-read this one first as it’s a short and enjoyable read.
