About the book
Brooke Anderson never pictured herself as a divorcee at twenty-eight. But when she mentions getting a post-nup to her husband Garrett after one deliciously sex-filled year, he promptly serves her with divorce papers. Admittedly, she could’ve told him about how her father left her and her mother homeless when she was young, and how she’s never been wired to trust anyone. Especially those closest to her. Now, all she wants to do is avoid anywhere he might be so she won’t have to face him again.
But she’s not the only one who can’t seem to trust.
Garrett Call grew up with parents who married for money and wants no part of a life that puts material possessions above love. He reinvented himself in college, complete with a new last name so he couldn’t be tied to his family’s lucrative business. He never even told Brooke the truth. Admittedly, he could’ve handled the issue of a post-nup better with his ex-wife. Maybe he didn’t count on how much he was going to miss having her in his life.
When their best friends’ wedding forces the exes to see each other again, a dangerous man from Garrett’s world threatens Brooke’s life. And they realize the only way to save themselves is to finally learn to trust each other.
Review
Brooke, and let's just be clear on one thing before we get started - she is often a maths problem short of any logic when it comes to her love life, has huge trust issues. Abandoned by her parent as a child and forced to watch her mother struggle to survive with her in tow, it's fair to say she has some mega baggage.
Her whirlwind marriage seemed to be going so well, especially in the bedroom department, until she started letting doubts creep in. What if Garrett leaves, what if she is left pregnant and alone, what if she ends up like her mother?
Doubts become certainty and she pushes him away after he refuses to get a post-nup, which means divorce asap. The only problem is she finds it difficult to forget about him and the attraction she feels for him. Every time she sees him she gets hot under the collar and the words one last time become an often used phrase.
This is a novella length read. A read that may get pulses beating and encourage the steamy side of word consumption. It's a complicated romance a la Mills/Boon Dare.
