One Hot Summer Book 2
It’s rare I choose the bad girl in the group.
This time I got lucky.
A spunky New Yorker with a beautiful body and interesting personality.
I need a break from life in general and this girl is the perfect distraction.
Her being in a different state might perfect for the fling I’m searching for.
Having just graduated from college with a Fine Arts degree, my billionaire father forces me into the banking industry.
Not willing to let anything get me down, I go after this new life with a vigor that says I was made for it.
But truth be known, the more I work at being something I’m not, the more I crave someone to remind me of who I am.
My pretty girl would be perfect for the job of loving me, but she’s pretty damn stubborn.
No marriage. No babies. No future.
Time to convince her otherwise. I’m good at just about everything, but at making her mine?
I’m going to figure out how to be great.

My Review:
I am shocked by how much I liked Valerie in this book. After the first one, I expected to find her the same selfish spoiled brat I saw her as in that book. (Though the whole cutting off her nose to spite her face business at the end made me question that thought.) She and Fulton seem like such opposites on the surface; the poor waitress struggling to make ends meet and the rich banking mogul with the world at his feet. Yet their passionate artistic natures are sometimes too similar for their comfort. This means they have lots of explosive, emotional encounters, because both of them are pretty attached to being right. I really enjoyed watching them fall for one another and then seeing what it took to put everything to rights in the end. The epilogue was utterly adorable.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
