Mia is stunned when she receives an email from the elusive billionaire who owns the lingerie company she models for. He tells her he’s intrigued. He’s not the only one.

It seems they’re at an impasse.

****3.5-4 Stars****
I can honestly say I have never been quite so torn and unable to form an opinion on a book. I loved the story but felt something was missing. It had the feel of all the Billionaire greats but lacks the flair that made them what they were. Its a good book and I enjoyed it. Don't get me wrong. I just couldn't say WOW. The writing was done well and was edited well also. I have no complaints about her style and was fully engaged in the story. Its a great summer beach read that has very little drama and conflict.
Sorry I couldn't give you more but I just can't figure out how I feel to relay it to you :)
I hope to read more from Cheryl soon ! :)
When one door closes, another one opens. I closed the door to my business for the last time in 2011, which left me with a decision. What now? Find another location and move my nutrition business, go to work for someone else, or take a chance on my dream? I chose the latter and I’ve never looked back!
I’ve always loved reading and writing, but it wasn’t until I jumped in with both feet and decided writing would be my career, instead of just a hobby, that my muse woke up from her deep slumber. It was like someone flipped a switch inside my head and stories just came pouring out. At the end of the day, I would often look at the keyboard and wonder, ‘Who the heck wrote that? ‘Cause I’m pretty sure it wasn’t me!’
I don’t write books. I tell stories, or rather, I allow my characters to tell their stories through me. I’m not a plotter, never have been, never will be. Why? Because I have no idea how the story will evolve and it’s not my place to manipulate it. My job is to get to know these characters, figure out what makes them tick, then follow their journey wherever it takes me.
When I’m not writing, I’m daydreaming. Thankfully, I have an understanding husband and son who know I’ll re-join the land of the living just as soon as my muse decides it’s quitting time. I don’t work for myself. I work for her. She’s the boss. And I’m okay with that.
