When cosmetics entrepreneur Sabrina Kelly waited until she was thirty-eight to marry, she never thought she’d be widowed by forty. Now, two years later, she’s ready for a dip in the dating pool. And Michael, the merciless flirt who lives down the hall, seems like a fun way to get wet. He has “player” written all over him, but Sabrina’s not looking for a love connection. Her heart can’t take more than a fling.
Wall Street mogul Michael Wright has ignored his mom’s pressure to marry for years. But it’s not until he has a health scare that he finally takes stock of his life. If he’s going to settle down, only one woman comes to mind… his gorgeous, whip-smart neighbour, Sabrina. Their chemistry is off the charts. The banter? So. Hot. But while he’s working overtime to woo her, she’s holding back. Can two people running at different speeds get to happily-ever-after together?'
This is book 3 in the 'Never too Late', now although this is technically part of a series it is also a stand alone book. Enough information is provided that you don't feel like you have missed anything but at the same time, it might leave you hungry wanting to read the other books in the series.
This book is all about Sabrina and Michael, their story is told over the course of 22 Chapters and an Epilogue. Now although that doesn't sound like a long book, it sure is packed with enough content and sizzling attraction to keep the reader interested.
As you can tell from the blurb Sabrina is a widow who is questioning the word 'ready' and what it means in her life. Michael on the other hand is harbouring some lustful feelings for Sabrina. Right from the beginning of this book, the banter between these main characters is funny and sexy.
Thorough out the book the point of view switches back and forth (by chapter) between Michael and Sabrina. This is brilliant as it means that readers get to see just how each interaction is making them both feel. Whether the interaction was good or suspenseful.
As Sabrina is a widow there are aspects of this book that take serious turn. However the Author has done it in a way that still keeps it light but doesn't diminish what is being spoke about.
The descriptors through out this book really make it easy for the reader to picture the scenery as well as the characters. In particular the way Sabrina describes Michael at the beginning of the book really lets the reader picture every sexy inch of him.
Now let me tell you about the Author Karen Booth, who is a midwestern girl transplanted into the South. She was raised on 80s music and repeated readings of 'Forever' by Judy Blume. A writer of contemporary romance and women's fiction, which almost always about the dreamy guy you never thought you would get. The stories are full of breathless kisses, tearjerker moments, family dynamics and more than a few things she is glad her grandmother never read.
Overall this book was easy to get stuck into and enjoy. The banter between the main characters is friendly but also flirty. This makes some excellent chemistry for these two characters to navigate through. You can get your copy HERE
Until Next Time
