EXCERPT 1:
“Thank you so much.” She was beginning to feel like a broken record. She saw him glance around the parking lot and followed his gaze to the coffee shop in the corner.
“Why don’t you thank me by having coffee with me? We could go over to the shop next door. Sounds like you’ve been having a pretty cruddy day. Maybe I can cheer you up?” And then he gave her that killer smile. Okay, so… not gay?
Must do it for other girls, but Sara wasn’t swayed. He probably went from grocery store to grocery store, looking for helpless females to help out, guilting them into going for coffee with him. Yep, that was it. He was a serial charmer.
EXCERPT 2:
Sara felt her breath catch in her throat for the second time in two days, and he looked away. Since the light was going down and the sun was to his back, she couldn’t see what color his eyes were, but she already knew that intense gaze was a deep green. She felt his eyes on her once more and the familiar tingles tickled their way up and down her spine.
The man from the gas station.
This was completely incredible. What were the odds of Sara running into not one, but both of Lisa’s brothers in the same day? Both coming to her rescue with two very different scenarios playing out and with her having two totally different reactions to the men. There’s no way I’m going to be able to pull this off! Live with this man? They would completely drive each other insane. This cannot be happening!
EXCERPT 3:
A thought occurred to Sara. “Nick, did you know my Mom was there?” He shook his head no, rubbing his forehead against hers. “So you weren’t putting on a show with the kiss?” He shook his head once more.
“Then…what was…” she trailed off helplessly.
He leaned back against the wall, but still holding her hand, quirked an eyebrow. He didn’t give her time to ask any more questions but instead leaned in again, and Sara closed her eyes, bracing herself for another kiss. Her eyes popped opened in surprise when she felt him kiss the tip of her nose. He turned and headed to the garage, pulling her along behind him.
I really enjoyed this book. It was a light-hearted story. It was a quick read for me, and I would have read it all in one sitting if it weren’t for reality. 🙂 The writing was smooth and drew me in right away. I had trouble putting it down, and when I was away from it, all I could think about was getting back to it. I loved the characters. They were very well developed.
Sarah has had her share of bad relationships. So much so, that her well-meaning mother worries about her. Sarah thought she had finally met “the one”, The one she had moved in with and the one she thought she would marry. Boy was she wrong. After finding out he was a cheating snake, she leaves him. Where will she live? Her friend, Lisa, has a solution. Sarah would move into her brother,Nick’s house. Along the way she meets two men who have helped her out in a couple of funny mishaps. One funny and charming and shows an interest, the other a bit rude and rough around the edges. When she arrives to look at the house, she discovers that both are Lisa’s Brothers and the man that was so rude, would be her new roommate! But wait! The situation gets worse, her mother calls to say she’s in town, leaving Sarah in a panic. After all she had just told her mom what a wonderful guy she had. Soon, she is caught in a situation pretending that Nick is her fiance.
This book left me wanting more. It was charming and funny. Can’t wait to see what else is in store for the Moreno’s. I want more! 5 stars from me!
