This is more of a second chance romance which starts on Halloween and then 10 years later repeats itself with a HEA. Quinn is working at a Halloween party during her college days and during her break she gets away to find some peace and quiet, only to be interrupted by this gorgeous guy in which she gives him her virginity after denying she was one. They leave their masks on, so they don’t know each other. Years pass, and Eli, the gorgeous guy is now married, and his wife passes away giving birth, well he firmly believes that it is his fault that she dies, so he doesn’t want anything to do with his daughter. Year pass again and Eli and his daughter are forced to move to the country where his late wife grew up on and the drama begins. I will leave it at that so that I don’t give out the whole story. I will admit there are some parts to the story that could have been thought out a little better, but overall you get the gist of it. I liked that she kept me intrigued from the very beginning. This is a must read, it involves a lot from losing a loved one, to learning to let go and love again, to be forgiving and understanding.

This is an enjoyable read. A second chance, single dad, holiday romance. Quinn and Elijah’s story begins with an anonymous Halloween party hookup and then picks up years later. There is quite a bit of drama, emotional turmoil, action, suspense and danger in this engaging storyline. This is a very good book that does however, kind of bog down a bit towards the end.

This was just a big messy story. The beginning “meet and sex” was just too farfetched. Eli was a complete jerk (putting it EXTREMELY nicely) to everyone especially his Daughter. And then you throw in Quinn’s family, her son, and those issues.
Also, if it wasn’t for the fact she went to college and they all partied, it mentioned computers, vehicles, airplanes, etc, I would have absolutely NO clue what century this story took place!

I love the way the story came together! They met one Halloween and find each other again years later without even knowing each others name. I love how strong Quinn and Eli are as individuals and how their relationship grows!

The storyline had elements of love, romance, poor decisions, mystery, danger and hot, steamy scenes. Good storyline that flowed well and absolutely held my interest. Quinn and Eli were destined to meet again even if neither realized it at first. Good, strong characters from all involved. Definitely a must read!

Here is a story that has mystery, drama, betrayal, new friendships, first time love, deals with loss and family drama. This story has a nice pace and complex characters that keep the reader turning the pages tI’ll the end. The story keeps the guessing if the characters will get their HEA.

The book started well .. the chemistry and drama are easy to follow .. Timeline is easy to follow, despite a great jump in time. But towards the end it becomes long-winded for me .. all that running away and making good. Thats why I get 3 stars from me.

I wholeheartedly enjoyed this story. Author Ashlee Pice gave the story engaging characters especially Eli, Quinn, and her family. With the appearance of her younger brother Chase, I would like to see a book 2 about him (hint hint). Even the two children, Clive and Marianne were adorable and their behavior age appropriate.
I am recommending this book for your reading pleasure and enjoyment.
When Eli hires Quinn to tutor his daughter, neither realize they already know each other and share a lot more than they know. This was a great read, with lots of surprises and drama. The characters were fun and the story was entertaining. I would recommend this story, you won’t be disappointed!

The first time Eli and Quinn meet was at a Halloween party and their little rendezvous left her with a gift nine months later. The next time they meet Eli is an angry man with the world on his shoulder along with a little girl that he doesn’t know how to cope with. Quinn is asked to home school her and her first encounter with Eli have them at each other’s throat. Surprisingly it reminds him of another time long ago of a feisty woman. The more time they spend around each other have them loosening their guard and with that their hearts when one twist leads Quinn to a discovery. Will She let Eli in on the fact that they have more in common than they expect?

It was funny and sweet. The twist in the story was great. The little steamy scenes was nice. The family dynamics was beautiful. It was an unconventional love story.
