Freddie is trying to honor the promise she made to her mother before she passed away to open a homeless shelter to help single mothers and their children. She has the land picked out and is ready to process when her high school nemesis wants the same piece of land to build a hotel.
Charles is a wealthy businessman with some dubious allies. Although he enjoyed making Freddie’s high school days difficult he is intrigued by the woman she has become. Will they be able to find a compromise when it comes to their battle over the land or will business override their feelings for each other?
The story of Freddie and Charles was ok, they knew of each other in high school where he was mean to her, but they are noe adults and 20 years have past. They are compiting for a spot of land for two different reasons, and they try to trick each other. It is an ok story but the way it is written was not completely to my liking, I thought it need a little more structure, a little more detailes about the people and places, and I did not really feel the chemestry between the main caracters. But it was ok.

This book was awesome. Freddie was focused on seeing her mother’s dream come to fruition but was usurped by her high school tormentor Charles. When Charles realized that the land he acquired was wanted by Freddie he hatched a plan to keep her from having it. Will their plans work or will they backfire and give them what their hearts truly desire?
Great story line which only added to the character development.

Charles Larenski was a bully to Fredericka Jones in high school, making her life miserable when he made up the nick name Freaky Freddie. He still calls her that when he meets her, which I found to be a sign of disrespect. Being the victim of a bullying myself in high school, I didn’t enjoy his continued taunting of her with the name. I thought she had a worthy cause building a home for women and their children to get them off the streets that would help to educate them and find employment for the women. She was stubborn in being fixated on the same piece of land that Charles wanted to build a hotel on even after he gave her the ability financially to build somewhere else. Charles also should have taken it more seriously that his accountant was involved with the mafia. Charles could have faced criminal charges by association like money laundering.
This book was kind of a center of the road read for me. I really liked Freddie. I admired what she was trying to do, the things she had overcome and the love she had for her Mom. Charlie I wanted so badly to truly like. Unfortunately, I could never acheive this desire. I will say he had his moments but, In my opinion he needed better judgement and better friends and associates.
