About the book: Abigail Spencer loved her job. She was a marine biologist who maintained some of Miami’s most spectacular ponds and aquariums. She had the opportunity to travel around the city, meeting new people and working in beautiful locations. So, even though it was just another day at the office when she suddenly met the man of her dreams, she wasn’t in an office at all.
Every girl imagines meeting her prince charming. It’s doubtful, however, that any of these fantasies include it happening when they’re soaked with sweat and knee-deep in pond scum.
Fate can be funny that way.
“Oh, thank goodness!” Tori said when I walked into the office that morning.
She was holding the phone to her ear, but she was talking to me as I approached her U-shaped reception desk. She stared at me from over her reading glasses, and she waved me forward like she had been anxiously awaiting my arrival. I was twenty minutes early, so I had no idea why she was so relieved.
“Abigail’s here now,” she said to the person on the phone. “She just walked in. I’m looking at her right now. Okay, I’ll tell her. Bye.”
I stood in front of Tori’s desk and watched as she hung up the phone before looking at me with a relieved smile.
“I’m so glad you’re here.”
“I’m always here,” I said cautiously.
“I mean, I’m glad you’re early. I was gonna call you and tell you to hurry. That was Lance. We have to rearrange your schedule today. He needs you to head out on a pond job… like right now. It’s a priority.”
This was definitely another winner! Loved Ash and Abigail and how their relationship grew. Brooke’s books are always an instant click for me, I don’t even have to read the blurb of what its about. I appreciate that she writes clean books and would recommend them highly. I’ve read everything she’s written and can’t wait for the next!!
What a great book! The main characters’ backgrounds are refreshingly original. So many romances are formulaic or copycats of other books out there. Additionally, the chemistry between Ash and Abigail is so strong it’s practically tangible. This book is the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. Read it!
I loved this book- when are the rest coming out?!?!?! I truly relate to Abigail as I am in a profession where I am usually more dirty than clean. I appreciate the religious aspect of the book without it being pushed hard, it’s just part of the characters life. Thank you Brooke for amazing books and keeping them at a price that buying the entire series doesn’t break my bank account!
