~~~~~~~~~~Dee's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~~

Kenzie is a beautiful, smart-mouthed, college graduate challenged by two weaknesses: singing in front of an audience and standing up to her mother. Colby is her brother's best friend and one she has secretly crushed on since a little girl. Colby has a nasty reputation as a man whore and party animal, one who avoids responsibilities and commitments. He drove me nuts when Kenzie tried to seduce him on multiple occasions and he would always back away, referring to her as his best friend's baby sister. Because he was ashamed of his past, he felt unworthy of someone as pure and sweet as Kenzie. Plus, he cringed at what his brother and her brother would do if they found out he had an interest in her more than just being a friend. Obviously, Kenzie & Colby needed to be together but it took forever for them to even take the first step to get closer. Written mostly in Kenzie's point of view, we see and feel her longing, frustration and hopes for Colby to see her as a grown woman and not just a little girl. Their journey to love is filled with potholes, challenges from past decisions, regret, fears and complicated with personal weaknesses. The ups and downs, the progress and the setbacks, the laughter and the tears will entertain a lover of romantic stories with lovable hero & heroine, victory over crippled hearts and passionate scenes so hot to set the pages aflame. Excellent story and well written.
