Amber Laura
Publication date: July 30th 2019
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance
She’s tried for years to convince herself that she isn’t in love with him. If it hasn’t worked, at least she’s managed to convince him of it, anyway.
A tragic love affair from her past had shattered Christina’s illusions of romance—it’d shattered her entire world, left her utterly broken and blamed. She’s fallen once before. She isn’t about to make the same mistake twice!
Jason Gordman is off-limits. Charming, playful, confident—he’s everything dangerous to her defenses. Worse yet, he’s the boss’s son. Hiding behind antagonism and indifference, Christina manages to keep him at a careful distance. That is, until one fateful night when she finds herself snowbound with him in a blizzard and she slips, allows herself one, forbidden kiss…
Struggling to reconcile her feelings, Christina is entirely unprepared for where that one stolen moment will lead her.

Stephanie’s 3 Star Review:
I received a free copy of this book from the author.
Christina is trying to best not to fall for her bosses son. The temptation is too high. She’s so close to his family (her boss and his wife) that if anything happened it would jeopardize everything she’s worked for since moving to MN.
She previously had a horrible experience with her first relationship that has scarred her for life in regards to future relationships. There’s no way she would want to put herself in that position again.
Christina really does have a hard time reconciling what happened in her past verses what’s happening in the present. She keeps a brick wall up between her and Jason so that she can’t get hurt or fall for him.
This is a love story that speaks to real fears and relationships. Christina’s experience was horrible and it shaped her for many years. Showing someone you love them isn’t supposed to hurt or be hurtful. Love bleeds, yes, but it also is kind and uplifting. Jason and his family is determined to show her this different side of love.
I thought the ending was a little abrupt which with how the smooth the rest of the book read, to me, was disappointing. Other than that it was an enjoyable love story with great lessons learned and a HEA.
