He was a nameless guy in a bar–a man Grace couldn’t get out of her head…A week later, she came home to find him sweaty and shirtless with a tape measure in hand, remodeling her loft. As a Parker-King, she’s not allowed to want someone like Noah Dalton. She’s sick of her life, though. Sick of the rules of being a Parker-King. She wants something more, even if it isn’t forever. Finding comfort … forever. Finding comfort in the arms of a former SEAL is easy, not falling for one . . . not so much.
Noah left the military and moved to New York for one reason: his daughter. Not for some uptight businesswoman–a Manhattan elitist. So when Grace offers him the kind of relationship that no hot-blooded man can turn down, he should say no. And when her seemingly put-together life spins out of control, and his instincts to protect and save kick in, he should turn away. But he doesn’t.
Can two people from different worlds really live in the moment, knowing they’re on borrowed time, or is someone bound to get hurt?
A standalone contemporary military romance.

Love love this book
Oh my gosh. I love, love, love Noah and Grace. Noah’s story broke my heart. Serving our country and as a Navy SEAL to have his wife betray him like she did. And Grace? Broken but strong and resilient. Under the thumb of her controlling father and surviving assault to come out stronger on the other side when she finds Noah. They are each others light and strength. Brittney never fails to amaze me with the stories she writes. They are full of heart, feeling, and heat. Strong men and women who are strong individually but stronger together.
The audiobook version of this story is sinfully wonderful to the ears. Connor Crais with a Southern drawl? Phew. My ears could listen to that all day long. And Ava Lucas portrayed Grace beautifully. We waited awhile for this audiobook and it was worth the wait. On to Book 2!
Super cute story!
I really, really liked this book.
Noah, Grace and Lily story is moving and emotional. Noah and Grace fight back from individual devastation to find love with each other and form a family around Lily. There’s drama, suspense and romance neatly tied in a great reading package.
Boy meets girl, falls in love, and happily ever after follows. At least, that’s what we’d like to believe. Someone Like You is the reality, it’s heartbreak, family drama, and a heaping pile of lust that’s meant to only last a night. Brittney Sahin perfectly describes the feeling that occurs when someone feels so right in your life, but you feel like you have to think with your mind over your heart.
“But it doesn’t matter. We’re from two different worlds, and I’ll never see her again.”
I loved the characters, from beginning to end. They were already complex in the beginning and as the story took shape and developed, so too did Noah and Grace. Grace is from the upper crust, a business woman her family treats like a pawn in the game, while Noah is a former Navy SEAL with a kind heart and a daughter he’d do anything for. Grace and Noah recognize the lust between them, but the readers are treated to the truth, that these two have been waiting for someone like each other for longer than they even realized. Mixed in with their attraction is the expectations from their family and those that they have for themselves. They’re from different worlds, their lives are on different paths, and yet the chemistry between them burns brighter with each passing day.
“The dark scruff around his lips- he has that sexy kind of dangerous look…but I can tell this man is only dangerous because he’s forbidden.”
Brittney Sahin has a knack for writing novels that suck you in; with descriptive prose she paints a story that makes you feel as though you are within the pages of the novel. You will feel the waves of the water, experience the burn of lust, and find yourself becoming emotional alongside the characters. It’s equal parts sweet and sexy, plus it has just a bit of suspense to make it even more interesting. I really appreciated how much attention Brittney Sahin gave to the small details, I could picture every setting and really felt the impact that Grace’s family choices had on her. I too felt deceived by their ability to drag her down and was overjoyed when her friends and Noah helped her realize she didn’t need to be a puppet. I questioned every character’s motives, it made me think about why we put ourselves into boxes, and it absolutely made me believe that love is worth risking it all. Ultimately, the novel centers around Grace and Noah accepting that life isn’t what you expect it to be like and that there is more to gain from seeking happiness than anything else.
“He’s smart enough to know he’s playing with fire, and I’m the flame. I don’t want to burn him though.”
Someone Like You is different than Brittney’s previous romantic suspense releases, but it shines as a contemporary romance. I was so wrapped up in the novel, in fact I will admit I have already read it twice. There were times I thought that the book could never possibly go my way, but the weaving story lines all work together to finally give the perfect outcome. Brittney Sahin’s writing has only improved with each novel and Someone Like You is absolutely her best book yet. Longtime fans and contemporary romance lovers will be enchanted by this new release.
This is the second book I’ve read by Brittney and I just bloody loved it.
Noah.. He’s a sweet and amazing character. But the poor guy has a lot of shit to deal with and I just want to cuddle him and kiss his troubles away
Grace.. I might of thought she was a little bit stuck up. But she wasnt not for long. I felt sorry for her and with how her family are aswell she just needed a break.
I seriously wanted to dick and vagina punch a few people. But one person did rectify themselves lol.
It was truly a great read.
I’ll say it again… BRITTNEY IS AMAZING!!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed. Great characters you drop right into and steamy but still with a good solid storyline. Lots of complicated family dynamics, and am loving the group of SEALs that Brittney has brought to life.
Someone Like You is my first book by Brittney Sahin, hopefully I’ll get to read many more. Ms. Sahin has delivered a well-written book. The characters are outstanding. I love the characters in this book. Noah leaves the SEALs when his wife files for divorce and takes his daughter to NY. Grace is an executive in the family business. Noah and Grace’s story is packed with drama, humor, sizzle and a bit of suspense. I didn’t think I was going to like this book because I’m not a fan of first person, alternating point of view formats but the author made it work in this story. I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from Brittney Sahin in the future. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
I voluntarily read a complimentary copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Wonderful,enjoyable , couldn’t put it down
I really enjoyed this book, it hit several themes. This well-written story that had Noah a former Navy Seal now a carpenter and Grace the rich lady that is a puppet with daddy pulling the strings. Throw in a single parent in a custody battle, a killer on the loose, and PTSD. Lots of drama as well as the touching love story.
