Few words for now; just have to say how much I loved this story. I have to say, it played out like a movie in my head, and it was exactly what I was promised ... fun, flirty, irresistible. I love the cover too, I can just picture the sunset or the garden scenes happening or ending up with the two of them just laying down together. :D
I fell in love with the heroine, simply because of who she is. I wish the titles would reflect the story better because for me, it wasn't even about George getting over her ex, but more of discovering herself and finding out how to be all right with that. How to be accepting and forgiving. Which is exactly what Zander needed to do as well. I could appreciate his position, before and after his life gets shaken up with George's arrival. I felt for him, his loneliness and the emptiness and the exhaustion from trying to control his life so as not to get hurt. (I have read a lot of HQ Presents, and I have to say that Zander's type of rich, alpha male is more my style.) There's just something about this man that spoke to me, genuine and affecting me deeply. It felt natural that Zander and George would gravitate towards each other. I enjoyed the amusing lessons and loved every bit of conversation they had together. The grand gesture at the end had me grinning from ear to ear. :D
