Startled eyes turn to face me, and my mind confirms what my heart already knows. I would recognize those gentle green eyes, dark eyebrows, the strong chin covered in sexy scruff and shaggy mane anywhere. Isaac's back in town. He is just as beautiful to me now as he was all those years ago. If anything, time has improved him. Last I heard, he started a nonprofit to build schools in Africa. Why has he finally come back after all this time? 

We are locked in a stare that seems to transport us to another place and time, until at last, his gaze breaks away.

Things quickly become complicated when the business mentor assigned to her turns out to be her exfiance. Loosely based Jane Austen's story, "Restless Hope" is a modern Persuasion meets Shark Tank.

With a peaceful look, eyes full of tears and a broken heart I kissed his forehead "you were, are and will be the best thing that ever happened to me" Then it was silent, all trace of laughter, happiness and love, disappeared and along with it, went the love of my life "Christian would have want you to live" Just as we parted ways the last time, I walked out without a word, without a single sound or mutter, only a single tear sliding down my cheek as I left him there, to die. Yet his soft rumbling voice whispered in the back of my mind, a phantom hand upon my shoulder "I love you" I realized our story wasn't a happy ending, because happy endings? Those never existed A few glimpses of the last chapter of book 1 to give you the ideaa. The new book brings even more trouble-intensity but most of all, even more love!

Preview ******** "Don't provoke me Amy" He groaned, his eyes darting towards my lips. "ugh? Wha? - what did I do now?" I almost crocked as I wet my lips again. "This" He swooped down to capture my lips. It was not a gentle kiss. It was hard and passionate and I couldn't do anything but be melted. My core throbbed as my hands went around his neck to clench his hair. His heat engulfed me and just when I thought my knees will give away, suddenly everything went cold. "Wha-t huh?" A moment before we couldn't have enough of each other and now, he was standing away, near his huge window, staring at me. "Please leave Ms. Wilson" his voice was tart. I couldn't believe we were back to the last name basis. "How dare you?" I was furious. "Tone, Ms. Wilson" His lips were a thin line. "Then behave, Mr. Holden" I straightened my dress and hair and turned on my heel. *************************************************************************** Greetings, Thank you for giving this book a chance :) Please read, comment and hit the Star :) --Cover pic credit to squammie.wordpress.com/
