It’s against the rules to feel the way I do about him, but I can’t help myself.

This is one of the most beautiful love stories that I have read. Now, that, of course, does not mean that everything is roses and rainbows through the whole book. It is a very emotional book. I have to say that I shed lots of tears, but it was worth every tear that I shed. Andrew is a billionaire, but not your usual one that is in most books. He is the single father of a 17 year old girl. Her mother, and his wife, had been killed in a car accident, when she was young. He has not been in a relationship since. Then, he meets Lanie, who is his daughter’s guidance counselor. There is a 17 year age difference between them, but that does not matter to either of them. There are lots of ups and down, but with these, comes some of the best writing that I have read. Ali Parker pulls you into this story, and keeps you there, not letting you go, and you do not want to go. I do not just highly recommend this book, I think it is a must read
Lanie is 28 years old and starts a new job as a high school counselor. Andrew is a widower who tragically lost his wife years earlier. He’s raising his daughter but he works too much. His daughter, Raven has been acting out in school. He gets a phone call to meet the counselor at her school. Despite Lanie being young, he finds himself instantly attracted to her. She tells him that he should take his daughter to a local art gallery and he agrees hoping to see her again. Soon they find themselves unable to stop thinking about each other. Everything is going good until she finds out that Andrew is one of her dad’s best friends.
Loved this book. Fell on love with Andrew.
Loved the storyline.
Lanie had went back to school and will be a counselor at a high school. What she wanted wasn’t a better job a bigger apartment or a man with money. All she wanted was a man to fall in love with. When she had to meet with a students patent she would not have dreamed what a gorgeous man he was. Andrew was about to change her life just as much as she changes Andrews and his daughter. Until the thing her mom ropes her into for her dad. Will this put distance between the two or will it matter.
Wow
This is a great story. Lanie is starting a new job as a high school counselor. He runs a large company. His daughter is having problems in school which brings them together. There is a lot going on.
WOW!!! I think this might be my favorite book I have read thus far from Ali Parker. It was so well written and just a really touching story. It is instant attraction with an older man and younger women. It was a captivating book that keeps you hooked but entertained. It has it fair share of drama but very fantastic story-line. I highly recommend this book. The characters are great!

I really liked this book. Andrew and Lanie seem good together. It took a while to find out that her father and Andrew were friends, but the shock of them discovering it was worth the wait. There were a lot of ups and downs but I am glad Andrew finally pulled his head out of his butt in time to save the relationship.
I received an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.
Ali Parker has definitely written a wonderfully emotional book with plenty of ups and downs and a few twists . The storyline is well thought out with some amazing characters.

WOW!!!
A well written, easy to follow, gut wretching, heart warming tale of loving relationships. Strong bonds and feeling for the characters that grow and seem so real you’d sware you can just reach out and touch. Emitions all over the place. I couldn’t put it down until the very last word. Its just one story that captures your attention that Ali is becoming to show more of her talents. Great job.
This is not your typical older man, younger woman love story. Andrew and Lanie’s story transcends any preconceived notions you have. Lanie is a new high school counselor who is challenged to help a teen with anger issues who keeps getting in trouble at school. Enter Andrew, as he is the single father of this teen. The sparks fly between the two at their first parent conference. They struggle with their attraction, with becoming a family, and then with the knowledge that Andrew and Lanie’s father have been friends for years. There are twists and turns, laughter, steamy sex, and a HEA in this book that you will not want to miss. I received an advanced readers copy of this book and am gladly leaving a review.
Simply amazing is all I can say. It gave us the feeling that hope is always there. You just have to believe that things will come true. In life there are always ups and downs but if it meant to be, it will be. This book is worth the read and I give it 5 stars. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book as an Advanced Reader’s Copy.

I enjoyed Lanie getting her HEA even with a much older man. Age is just a number and yet they have many hurdles to overcome….but they do it! Nice job with this story and the level of steaminess!
