Trust Me by Candace Hutton
Brooke Anderson never pictured herself as a divorcee at twenty-eight. But when she mentions getting a post-nup to her husband Garrett after one deliciously sex-filled year, he promptly serves her with divorce papers. Admittedly, she could’ve told him about how her father left her and her mother homeless when she was young, and how she’s never been wired to trust anyone. Especially those closest to her. Now, all she wants to do is avoid anywhere he might be so she won’t have to face him again.
But she’s not the only one who can’t seem to trust.
Garrett Call grew up with parents who married for money and wants no part of a life that puts material possessions above love. He reinvented himself in college, complete with a new last name so he couldn’t be tied to his family’s lucrative business. He never even told Brooke the truth. Admittedly, he could’ve handled the issue of a post-nup better with his ex-wife. Maybe he didn’t count on how much he was going to miss having her in his life.
When their best friends’ wedding forces the exes to see each other again, a dangerous man from Garrett’s world threatens Brooke’s life. And they realize the only way to save themselves is to finally learn to trust each other.
A
misunderstanding leads to a divorce… what happens next when both
are parties are scheduled to attend their friends' wedding?
Brook
Anderson is reeling after a personal request to her husband backfired
and the fallout resulted in a divorce. Now, she's single and settled
in her new apartment… happy? That's what she's telling herself, but
is it true?
Newly
divorced, Garrett Call's convinced he made the right decision by
ending his marriage. After all, the last thing he needed was his
ex-wife finding out his real identity. Only, her presence left a void
in his life he can't shake off...
Two
people with conflicting issues neither had bothered to share with
each other. Both had valid reasons, only they omitted to tell each
other the truth for their reasoning. However, the divorce didn't get
rid of the feelings they still have for each other!
This
is a sizzling and sexy novella about two people who realise the
chemistry they once shared, never burned out. It is, however, more
potent than before. Ms Hutton has written a smouldering second chance
romance where both protagonists' struggle with trust issues and
finally overcome their differences.
I
enjoyed the twist which added a little intrigue and suspense to the
narrative but disappointed it didn't have a conclusion...yet!! Time
will tell if it's resolved in any of of the subsequent Manhattan
Marriage novellas.
Overall
a fun and sexy novella with a storyline which kept me
entertained.
