Long-lost love, a hostile corporate takeover, and the death of her beloved husband turn attorney Molly Parr’s life into a tailspin that threatens to ruin everything she has worked for. Molly’s all-consuming job is to take over other companies, but when her first love, a man who she feels betrayed her, appears out of nowhere to try and acquire her business, long-hidden passions and secrets are exposed. Can Molly trust the man who broke her…

This book was actually nothing like what I expected, but in a good way. I was expecting a little more tough corporate arguments and a lot more animosity between the two main characters. I guess I was expecting a little more enemies to lovers than second chance.

All that being said, Molly and Tam’s story was really sweet and while I understand the precipitating events that split them up all those years ago, I wonder at the reality of Tam waiting so long to seek Molly out. That part does not make sense to me at all.

I also felt they just dove right back into their relationship after clearing up the misunderstanding, which is great. But after 17 years, shouldn’t they take at least a little time to get to know each other again?

Outside of those questions, this was a lovely book. The friendship between Molly and Tunney was everything that I could hope for (but seriously, why didn’t he seek Molly out either??). And I liked both Gerri and Cissy a lot, their characters added a little more fun and humor to the book.

All in all I enjoyed this one.
