From the moment I started this series I was intrigued by Mac Draper and
what his story would be. While it was a tad predictable it was still
incredibly enjoyable!!
Mac Draper has exactly the life he wants. A carefree bachelor living the good life in New York City, any woman he wants with no commitment. The successful man that no longer resembles that abused little boy from a horribly dysfunctional family in a small town in Michigan. But that is all about to change!
In the previous story we met Lily St. Clare, who comes from an equally dysfunctional, albeit very wealthy family. She exploded on the scene in Crystal Lake as Jake Edwards friend who had lost her brother in the same war as the boys lost Jesse Edwards. They bonded instantly but just as friends. Now at the end of Jake's story Mac and Lily shared a cab on New Years Eve and likely a lot more but that was left as assumption. Knowing that neither of these two are looking for anything but a good night we find out at the beginning of this story that a wonderful one night stand was had by Lily & Mac and apparently Lily split before Mac even woke the next morning.
Only problem here is Lily is now living in Crystal Lake and guess who came home for a visit? You got it! Let the fun begin!
Mac decides to spend the summer in Crystal Lake helping Jake on a project he has going and figures he and Lily, who he affectionately refers to as 'Boston' can enjoy each other while he's there. Problem is of course that they fall in love!
This was a fun, sexy read with some real emotion thrown in to make some parts rather angsty! Overall a great story and great addition to the series!
