About the Book
Six
foot three. Dynamic green eyes. Utterly irresistible.
Ethan
Everest stole my breath the first time I saw him. He romanced me with skill,
dazzled me with his charisma, and proceeded to steal my heart right after.
I
might have fallen for his easy going smile the first time we met, but I fell
for him the second time.
Honey-colored
hair. Cherry-kissed lips. Captivatingly gorgeous.
Singer
Davis was the first, and only, woman to ever intimidate me. She spoke to my
heart with her wit, seduced me with her eyes, and became the only thing that
made sense in a world that made none.
I
let her slip through my fingers once. I won’t make that mistake twice.
Secrets
broke us apart. Can a second chance bring us back together?

My Thoughts
In the last couple of years I have spent a lot of time
listening to audio books. They have forced me to slow down and concentrate on
what I am hearing. I find that this has
benefited me when I read books. It might take me longer than previously but I
take my time, lingering on words and thinking about what I read.
Everest is one of those books designed for those of us who like to linger. The book’s slower pace makes it all the more easier savour as you read and digest each line. As tempting as it was to stop and research the book online, I let the story unfold in its own time.

When Ethan and Singer first meet, they choose to let the
opportunity of getting together pass them by. In the year that follows they see
each other on the rare occasion but never try to connect again until Singers
BFF Mel decides to act as matchmaker and arranges a date between them.
As they spend time together, I really enjoyed learning about
both Ethan and Singer. They both live in NYC but their lives are very
different. Ethan might have money but
this wealth comes with betrayals and people wanting to use him. Singer definitely
has no money and with her dream-job looking more and more like an unachievable fantasy,
she is suffering a crisis of conscience.
As the story unfolds, Ethan and Singer’s discoveries about
each other only leave them wanting more. Sadly, Ethan’s power and wealth have
made him and those close to him targets and tragic events threaten to tear
Ethan and Singer apart.
It’s not all doom and gloom. There are plenty of humorous
and romantic moments throughout the book that lighten what could have
(thankfully not) delved into a real angsty read.
I relished this book. I highlighted so many passages that it’s
a wonder there are any unmarked pages left in my eBook. You could feel the love
Ethan and Singer had for each other. And even though their material circumstances
were worlds apart, they were both strong enough to override any doubts they had
about each other over this.
This book is definitely headed to my keeper shelf to be
filed under slow-burn.
