Blurb
TO: The guy
who dumped me because of my career
FROM: The
woman hired to save yours
RE: I am
150,000% over you.
Alastair,
I’m on the 11:14
train out of London, so I’ll be there by 3:00. To make this as painless as
possible, I thought it would help to establish key ground rules:
1. No
rehashing our past relationship. Yes, we were engaged, but it’s been twelve
years and I’m over you.
2. I’m
very good at my job and that job is to help you shed the “reclusive” part of
the whole “reclusive rock star” vibe you’ve got going on. Brace yourself.
3. My
plan is to have this wrapped up by Friday, so save your smoldering looks until
I’m gone, please. (I assume you still smolder?) I’m immune now. See item #1.
4. My
cousin is getting married and guess who's a bridesmaid? Funny, huh? Almost as
funny as the fiancée you dumped because you thought she was married to her job
now saving yours.
Always a bridesmaid,
never a bride. Except almost. That one time.
Remi
P.S. Have I
mentioned I’m totally, completely 150,000% over you?

Author Bio
Brenda is a displaced New Yorker living in the English
countryside. She’s lived in the UK long enough to gain dual citizenship, but
still doesn’t understand Celsius. However, she has learned the appropriate use
of the word “pants”. And how to order a proper bacon bap/barm/buttie. Because,
well, bacon.
Brenda writes contemporary romance to make you giggle and
swoon. When she’s not writing, she enjoys hiking, running and reading. In
theory, she also enjoys cooking, but it’s more that she enjoys eating and, try
as she might, she can’t live on Doritos alone.

This is a story of second chances. Remi Cooper, 34, is one serious workaholic PR publicist from America who moved to London for her job. Alastair Wells, 32, is a songwriter and is also on the verge of music stardom as a budding rocker in the UK. These two used to be lovers and almost married. Something occurred years prior which broke them apart. Now Remi is back in Alastair's orbit, for her PR firm is hired to work with Alastair which means Remi is assigned to him. Spending time with her ex-fiancé isn’t at all high on her to do list but she’s a professional and she’ll do what is needed to be done. Her work has been her life up until it isn’t anymore.
This is a very slow burn romance with low impact steam appeal read. I’
admit I was disappointed that it wasn’t at all steamer or sexier as it could have been for it would have definitely helped enhance the main characters chemistry and connection. I will say i do appreciate that it avoided the other romance genres which would have sent this story tumbling into a deeper freefall. The writing is good, and the plot had good potential. It just needed more pizzazz and steam to make this story go from good to amazing for the story to pop otherwise this is just a solid meh in my opinion.
My Rating: 3.5 stars *****
