This is a short novella. It does have triggers of being held captive, and PTSD references.
Shelby McBride is a 26 year old Medical Quality Assurance Professional and sometimes working 90 hours a week isn’t enough to keep her occupied.
Devin Bridges, a 27 year old Police Officer who picks up every extra shift available, often working 7 days a week.
Devin hears cries of help one night while he is on duty. He goes to investigate. He finds Shelby being accosted by a man while she was walking alone to the subway station.
Shelby doesn’t do well after she was attacked. She can’t sleep, she’s always super jumpy. Nothing seems to help. Although she has seen Devin around, and being around him, she realizes that he helps calm her. She’s not sure if it is his demeanor, or if it’s because he is a police officer.
Devin and Shelby go out and realize they hit it off, and he can’t stop thinking of her, and she can’t stop thinking of him. Even though they are both workaholic’s they want to try to be together.
I did receive a free ARC copy of this book. I am freely leaving an honest review.
Up Against the Wall

Shelby& Devin
Are two workaholics, and Circumstances happen that they Meet, there romance lit up the page. This is a nice quick afternoon read. I really enjoyed reading about these two and how their lives came to enter twine with each other, overall this book was spicy and I would recommend this quick romance to anyone.
I voluntarily read an advance reader copy and my opinion are my own.
A quick and steamy read with off the chart chemistry. I loved it. Even though it was short, it packed a punch. Great read!!
When Shelby and Devin are brought together thanks to a terrible incident she suffered, it’s the beginning of an erotic wakening for the two of them. What follows is sensual and sweet. There’s not a ton of depth here, but lots of heat, and Devin is a sweetheart. So if you are looking for a full-rounded and developed love story, look elsewhere. If you are looking for something short, hot and sexy, this is just the novella for you.
Up Against The Wall was a hot, steamy, sexy, very enjoyable story! I loved Shelby and Devon! They had amazing chemistry and a wonderful connection. I love how great they were together! If you like a great, hot and sexy romance, Up Against The Wall is for you!
This is a short, over-the-top read about two people married to their jobs and find something unexpected with each other. It’s steamy and the length is perfect for just a quick read to relax.
This was a very fast paced novella about two workaholics, who meet under less than romantic circumstances. The spark of interest is apparent from the outset and only becomes stronger the more they see each other. This was a hot, sexy story and a very quick read.
Devin, a police officer, comes to Shelby’s aid when he hears her scream when she’s attacked by a mugger. I love how caring and protective Devin is of Shelby. I love how drawn they both are to each other. It’s a wonderfully written novella, with likable characters that have great chemistry. I loved everything about this story and definitely recommend it.
This is a great book for all the workaholics out there! Yeah, I know, you’re working, when do you have time to read? Well, this is a novella! You can read it in one sitting! And, it will help you realize; there’s more to life than just work!
Ms. Clara Fox is a new author for me.
This was a strong 3 low 4 story.
I received an advanced reader copy, and this is my honest and voluntary review.
I really liked this book it was really sexy and engaging, I read it in one sitting!
It’s a short erotica (romance, sortish?) novella so if you’re looking for depth, an actual plot, and interesting characters don’t get your hopes up. It was a quick, easy read and overall meh.
Up Against the Wall is a hot quick read. I love the chemistry between Shelby and Devin. You feel for Shelby for what she goes through. You will love how protective Devin is of Shelby from the very beginning. I love how Devin saves Shelby. Devin is so caring. I love the instant love that forms. Shelby and Devin are so hot together. I loved every moment of this one.
