Book Blurb:

Summer in the city...

Kurt

She’s smart, hot, and funny. My dream girl.

There’s just one problem. She’s also my best bud’s little sister.

The sparks have always been there, but law school had to come first. Now, we’re all back in the city and the same sparks fly every time I run into her.

She needs a job and I need an assistant at the law firm. What could go wrong?

I don’t know if I can hide my feelings any longer.

I know I shouldn’t go there, but I can’t help it.

Corina

My brother's back in town, and I offer to share my awesome apartment. Imagine my surprise when his best friend Kurt walks in.

He’s still tall, dark, and handsome, and I can’t deny the pull.

Working together only complicates things. Long days and nights in the office can be dangerous.

When we’re not at the office, he’s always hanging around my apartment. To see my brother. Yeah, right.

All I know is, summer in the city is about to get a lot hotter.

After all, 425 Madison is the perfect place to fall in love.

Each story is a complete standalone.

“I’m here for Corina Davies in 1205,” I respond, my nerves rattling even louder than five minutes ago when I was seized with the instinct to see her.

“Is she expecting you?” he asks, resting his hand on the phone.

I shake my head. The guy must think I’m a weirdo for just showing up like this. He’s going to call her for sure.

Sure enough, he picks up the phone. “Ms. Davies, you have a visitor,” he says, and then looks back at me. “Your name?”

I almost turn around to walk back out into the night, but I stay rooted to the spot. “Kurt. Kurt Owens.”

“Kurt Owens. Thanks.” He turns to me again and nods. “Go ahead. Have a good evening.”

I head for the elevator, and my heart rate rises with each step. She’s gonna think I’m fucking nuts for showing up like this at midnight. And why am I doing this again? What do I hope to achieve by interrupting whatever relaxing activity she’s enjoying at this time of night? I don’t know, but the thought of seeing her makes my palms sweat. I remember that skirt she wore, and how soft her legs looked. My cock twitches at the memory of her silky-smooth legs. Fuck. Down, boy. We’re not here for that.

I step into the elevator and before I know it, I’m standing in front of her door, my hand in the air. What am I going to tell her? What’s my excuse for showing up here so late? At the very least, I have to admit it to myself—I just want to see her. I have to see her. There’s no denying the spark that flew between us the other night. All those years hadn’t done a damn thing to kill our chemistry.

It sure is ballsy to just show up here. Maybe I’ve had a bit much to drink, but I’m not drunk. I’m not slurring or falling over myself. She won’t notice.

Finally, I knock. She’s expecting me, because she opens up right away. Seeing her knocks the wind out of me. Her hair rests over her shoulders in this sexy, yet natural way; she has a hint of makeup, but not much. She doesn’t need any. She’s still a natural beauty, just like she was all those years ago.

A light pink, silk robe clings to her body and ends just above the knees. She ties up the belt, very tight, as if afraid it might slip off any minute. Or that I might see what’s underneath. I try to push the thought from my head.

“Hi,” I say, hoping I don’t look as awkward as I feel. I’m standing in her doorway, without any good reason whatsoever, like a doofus. She’d be perfectly justified in turning me away with some excuse about going to sleep or whatever. But, she doesn’t.

She stands back to let me in.

“Hi, Kurt.”

I love the way my name sounds on her lips. Her lush, rosy lips. So smooth and kissable.

-------------------------------------------------- My Review:

4 Out Of 5 Stars

Genre: Romance--

Corina has always had a little crush on her older brother Liam's best friend Kurt, and at one time they almost seemed to have a moment, but that was years ago. But now fate has pushed them back together again. Kurt needs an assistant and Corina needs a job, the perfect helpful situation- but can they resist their feelings for each other this time around?

I really loved this cute little HEA story! Back For More was a fast, sweet adult contemporary read that I read in a single afternoon. I am such a sucker for the best friend/older brother's best friend trope, with the hint of the forbidden thrown in for fun. The story was roughly 150 pages making this a perfect quick getaway read with the best kind of result. And I did previously used the words sweet and cute, but for all you romance fans over there, there were some fun steamy, fun encounters too! Let me just take a minute here to mention that Kurt was the most wonderful of men- thoughtful, helpful, sexy, smart, adoring...did I mention sexy? Yep, he was a keeper for sure.

I loved getting the chance to meet Corina and Kurt, there story is totally worth reading. I would love to have a follow-up book about Liam the brother- I would love for him to be more developed and get his own HEA. I have read multiple books now in the 425 Madison Series and I am so glad that I got the opportunity to visit the hotel and meet all the random tenants. I love that all the books are standalone stories with couples finding romance in all kinds of ways, with complications and angst all their own.

I reviewed a complimentary copy of this title.
