Life for Charlotte (Charlie) Harris couldn’t be any better at this moment in time. She has her dream job, she has the extremely wealthy knight in shining armour and she has the best friends a girl could ever ask for. On paper, the beautiful world unfolding at her feet almost appears too good to be true for a working class girl from Manchester right?
But what happens when you gloss over the statistics and realise that the happy bubble you have been living in for the past fifteen months has all been a twisted, torturous path of lies? What if you realised that the person you loved wasn’t who they claimed to be any longer?
With the once sacred and happy memories now turned into hatred and despair, Charlie must now follow her instincts to either forget her past and move on or force the hand that holds the cards to her life to reshuffle the deck before it leads onto the twisted future that lies in store.
What will she choose?
Can she forgive and forget for the only man her heart has ever loved?
I was given this book by author for honest review. From the outside Charlie and Callum have the perfect relationship until Charlie learns the truth. Can she forgive him? I found Charlie to be young and somewhat innocent in the reasoning that she didn’t catch all the clue/signs from the start. In the end when everything is explained I started liking Callum more than I did in the beginning. Overall a well written story that held my attention.
The apartment’s intercom system
buzzed noisily, jolting Charlie from her thoughts. Jumping up from her position
at the breakfast bar, she hurried towards the intercom phone on the opposite
side of the kitchen.
“Hi John, is he here?” she
practically squealed, bouncing up and down on the balls of her feet.
“Yes, Miss Harris. His electronic
fob has just been used on the underground garage. He should be with you
shortly,” he replied.
“Thanks John,” Charlie said as she
disconnected the call and placed the phone back on to the wall receiver.
Knowing Callum was mere minutes
away, she moved swiftly through the apartment to wait by the private penthouse
lift. Fidgeting nervously with her hands, she watched as the numbers on the
panel steadily increased through the floors of the building. Growing more and
more impatient, she eventually heard the heart stopping ding of the doors
opening and Callum’s smooth and sensual voice as it echoed across the marbled
foyer.
“Damn, Baby,” he growled, running an
appreciative eye over her body as he entered the foyer. “You look absolutely
gorgeous.”
With a little squeal of excitement,
Charlie found herself rushing straight into Callum’s open and waiting arms. His
firm and strong grasp held her body tightly against his as his mouth dipped low
to claim her lips in a ferocious and practically starved kiss.
She felt his hands slowly drift down
the length of her back to cup her bottom, before he squeezed tightly to
encourage her to wrap her legs around his waist. She complied silently, raising
one leg to his hip so that Callum could lift her effortlessly against him.
Sliding her hands to lock around the
nape of his neck for support, Charlie gasped at the feel of his erection
straining against the material of his trousers.
