HARD CRUSH is a sizzling standalone romance from
USA TODAY Bestselling author Mira Lyn Kelly.
A jaded billionaire.
The girl who got away.
A second chance has never been so sexy.
ABBY
Technology has it out for me. And I’m not
talking about my ever-ailing phone or the temperamental Smart Board in my
classroom. I’m talking about the internationally hailed “Tech Genius” formerly
known as the boy I used to love.
It was bad enough seeing that cocky smile
staring back at me from my newsfeeds, the gossip sites, and—fine—the
scorchingly hot men’s fitness magazine I bought in a moment of weakness. But
now he’s back home, teasing me with the memories I’ve tried to leave behind,
crowding into my space and taunting me with the kiss I can’t resist. I know
it’s only a matter of time before I lose him again. He’s already told me he
isn’t staying, warned me he’s changed. I know better than to let him get too
close, so why can’t I push him away?
HANK
They call me a visionary. An innovator. Hell,
last week a headline touted me as the billion-dollar geek keeping Silicon
Valley’s panties wet. Try living that down. Strip away the media BS, and I’m
just a tech-minded guy with my eyes on the future and no time for a past I
can't change. So what am I doing following the sweet sound of its laugh back to
the woman who passed on our chance at forever?
I tell myself all I want is to say hello. To
see her smile. Just a few minutes to pretend we’re still the “us” I thought
would never end. But once I've had a taste of the too tempting woman she's
become, a few minutes isn’t enough.
The man I am today is used to getting what he
wants, and I want her.
The problem? She wants the guy I used to be.
Ten years later, all that’s changed is… everything.
Hard Crush is a great second chance romance.
Hank Wagner and Abby Mitchel, agreed to part ways after high
school when opportunities put Hank on a path where he could make the most of
his technical genius. Abby chose to stay closer to home and is happy with her
job and life in the town she calls home. There were no misunderstandings that
led to the split. I don’t blame Abby for staying and I don’t blame Hank for
leaving. It sounds trite to say they needed this time apart, but I believe it.
Ten years later, Hank is back in town for their high school
reunion. In the interim years he’s scaled professional mountains and is
somewhat of a romance book cliché; the tech genius billionaire with a great
body who indulges in motorcycles, expensive sports cars and dates supermodels.
But, heavens, he makes such a good hero. I loved him. His love, appreciation,
attraction and delight in Abby is apparent from the start. He respected Abby’s
decisions ten years ago but now he’s back to get the one woman that he has
never forgotten about.
Abby’s life may not be as exciting but it’s what she needs after a less than stable childhood. Her feelings for Hank have lain dormant but when Hank returns, well, it’s a struggle to contain those feelings. The attraction is sizzling and the sexy times are hot.
I was on a high after finishing this book and what more can you ask for at the end of romance book?
