Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Social Butterfly PR in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.I really enjoyed Michael and Abby together.  The fact that she had a huge crush on him as a young girl and had that blossom into something more was magical.  But the story felt like I was missing something and that took away from truly enjoying this couple.

Michael pursues Abby while pretending he's not.  He's not as unaffected by Abby as he'd like others (even himself) to believe.  It's not until they're away from the prying eyes of London that Michael finally gives into everything, knowing it was going to change everything with Abby.  But what had me at a loss was how easily Michael was willing to give it up.  He proved to be fiercely protective of Abby, but when both of their families threatened what they had, he was the one to hurt her most.  I couldn't understand why he didn't stand up to his brother and more importantly her mother and brother to put an end to the nonsense.  And despite Abby working for him, her gave her lame excuses about the kind of man he was.  They were ridiculous and took away from the essence of their relationship.
