Publisher's summary

Once you find...

Everything in attorney Skye Barclay's life is fitting smoothly into place until she makes the startling discovery that she was adopted. Not only does she learn that her birth mother has died, but now Skye finds out that she has a biological brother: Vincent. Skye wants to track him down, and her parents support her. But her fiancé, Wayne, refuses to accept her decision...and abruptly ends their engagement.

A love that's true...

Skye's search for Vincent leads her to his adoptive parents, Dr. Justin and Lorren Madaris, and, lo and behold, Slade Madaris - Vincent's tall, dark, and sexy cousin. Slade is by far the most compelling man Skye has ever met, but she isn't ready to get involved so soon after Wayne's rejection...not even when Slade offers her a job so she can stay in town and get to know her brother better.

Make it last...forever.

Slade is a shrewd businessman, but hiring Skye is one of the riskiest moves he's ever made. Soon their mutual attraction explodes into a steamy summer affair. When Wayne shows up in town, determined to win Skye back, Slade sets out to prove that he and Skye are meant to be together. Because a Madaris man never walks away from a challenge - especially when true love is on the line....

Really good

Slade and Skye had me at hello. They fell in love the moment they met each other. There was a lot of drama getting them to happily ever after but this was such a good book.

I’m still suspicious? Is it just me?

The main character Sky could’ve been far more developed in my opinion. Very damsel in distress which may be the point but it’s not my favorite persona. But I’d listen to this book 1000x just to hear the narrators voice. He brought the title to life! You hear me! Slowwwww burn. Such a deep, intense and sultry voice you cling to every word. Great job Pete! And Brenda, you have my heart always. I do love your writing style and how the emotions of the characters come to life 👏🏽

review

The story line was very good and the twist was unexpected. Every character came to life and the ending was unexpected as well with Sky's relationship between her parents.
