There was no enmity, rather a reluctant attraction and fascination from the hero and a confused attitude from the heroine.
But the hero doesn’t even remember her when they meet in present day. So the synopsis gave me the idea that both of these characters share a bitterness towards each other from their childhood. I also found it weird how easily they admit the cause of their friendship to the hero, even though he knew the boyfriend. And this acknowledgement does very little in making it any less odd. Naomi acknowledges quite a few times throughout the book that their friendship is odd. There she meets the wife AND the mistress. But she still decides to grace his funeral. Naomi has already found out from his obituary that he had a wife she had no idea about. The books starts with a funeral of the heroine’s boyfriend. I can always count on her to provide a cute romance.
I’d been looking forward to this book for a long time. Now they find themselves engaged in a battle-of-wills that will either consume or destroy them…įilled with charm and heart and plenty of sex and snark, this entertaining series will hook you from the very first page. Oliver used to torment Naomi when they were children, and as a ridiculously attractive adult, he’s tormenting her in entirely different ways. The worst offender is her new neighbor, Oliver Cunningham-the grown son of the very family Naomi’s mother used to work for. Now, as the strongminded, sassy CEO of one of the biggest jewelry empires in the country, Naomi finally has exactly what she wants-but it’s going to take more than just the right address to make Manhattan’s upper class stop treating her like an outsider.
For as long as she can remember, Bronx-born Naomi Powell has had one goal: to prove her worth among the Upper East Side elite-the same people for which her mom worked as a housekeeper.
