"If it feels too good to be true, it probably is."

Five years of obsessing over her career pays off when Melanie Gordon gets a promotion that could make or break her. But the new job takes her back to her hometown to face the family she's distanced herself from, and forces her to leave behind sexy, mysterious philanthropist Raine Mason, who just might be the man of her dreams.

By the time Raine makes his move with Melanie, her one-way ticket to Cleveland is booked. He convinces her to take a chance on him long-distance, but can't yet trust her with the whole truth about himself.

Raine and Melanie slowly peel back each other's layers (starting with his bicep-hugging sweater). She is finally ready to give her heart to him...until she learns the dark secret of his past. He'll have to prove to her that love is worth the risk.

very drawn out story

This was a difficult book to get through the weird sounding voices for narration made it hard to focus. The story itself is boring and took too long to get to the plot. The characters are boring and the way it was written is very middle schoolish.

Holding on to the past almost got her stuck

Ambitious to please her father while he lived & also after he died almost had her stuck in a job she really didn't like, pine for a man who showed her no respect, trying to fulfill unreal goals of a dead father's pressure under the pedestal of her own imagine design. A life lesson she had to realize to move forward in life.

Excellent storyline & an excellent narrator. I enjoyed the story immensely.

Such a sweet story!

I’m new to the Reese Ryan fan club and I’m enjoying every journey so far. This was a great friend to lover story that had just the right amount of everything. I really liked The heroine as she was her own woman. Can’t wait to dig in for the next one.

Annoying

Mel was annoying as heck. Narrator was good. A lot of inconsistencies in the storyline.
