WILL HER FLING BECOME HIS FOREVER?

Leia Scott has sworn off love. Fresh from a messy, public divorce from her hockey player ex, the twenty-six-year-old fashion designer temporarily trades New York for London to heal and embrace her freedom. Her vow? To protect her heart, steer clear of relationships, and say yes to flings without strings. She throws herself into designing upcycled dresses and exploring London with her sister. But Leia’s carefully curated plan encounters a flirty complication with an irresistible British accent.

Wealthy, charming, and devastatingly attractive, Tarquin Balfour istired of meaningless hookups and dates that go nowhere. For years, he has played the bon viveur with reckless abandon, throwing decadent parties, sleeping with a parade of women, and diving into extreme sports around the globe. But now the young property developer wants more. He craves love and commitment, to prove his kind heart matters more than the abundance of zeroes attached to his bank balance. Struggling with undiagnosed depression, Tarquin worries he’ll never find The One…until he meets his princess, a fashion designer named Leia.

Afraid of falling in love and fearful of being alone, Leia and Tarquin enter into an entanglement that threatens to hurt them both.

From the award-winning author of UNTIL THE LAST STAR FADES, comes a sexy story of love, second chances, gratitude, and finding beauty in the broken and the forgotten.



This is the first book that I have read by this author and it won’t be my last. I didn’t know that this was part of a series. They can be read as a standalone though.
Leia is a newly divorced and spending the holidays with her dad and sister in London. (I’ve always wanted to go, reading this book helped with that.) The book also takes place in New York. When Leia gets to London, she has some last-minute shopping to do. While running errands she happens to bump into Tarquin. If he didn’t give her his business card before they had parted ways, I would have been mad. The story of them having to find one another would have been interesting too though.
The chemistry that these too have is undeniable it felt real. You just want the best for them. I just wanted the book to keep going.
