As an accomplished interior designer in San Francisco’s Bay Area, Zoë Jenkins is used to transforming empty spaces into masterpieces. She leaves little square footage in her personal life for anything outside of her thriving business and a renewed relationship with her twin brother. After a decade spent ripped apart by circumstance and an entire ocean’s distance, she depends on no one but him. Until a sexy surgeon walks into her life.
Although Zoë can’t deny her attraction to the charming and benevolent Morgan Drake, he’s on her mental list of everything she should avoid. Past experience taught Zoë that dating clients compromises business. Add a not-yet-dissolved marriage to the mix and Doctor Hottie is definitely Doctor Off-limits.
Dr. Morgan Drake is surprised at the undeniable chemistry he feels when he’s in the same room as Zoë. The strikingly beautiful and solitary designer he hired to fill his new-start, new-city home makes it abundantly clear there will never be anything between them. But twelve years of medical school breeds persistence. He sets out to persuade the pants off Zoë Jenkins and show her what her empty spaces are missing.
Intense passion and amazing sex have a way of masking secrets-secrets that unravel a dangerous web of fraud, corruption and conspiracy that turn Zoë’s quiet spaces into a world where nothing is as it seems. With her life on the line, the good doctor responsible for her fiercest betrayal might just be the only one worthy of her finest interior masterpiece-this time, of her heart.

I was asked to read and review this book.
Two main characters, the sexy, dedicated,
sensitive Doctor Drake & the effervescent, sassy, beautiful but determined
Zoe.
Dr
Drake is a humanitarian Doctor who not only helps people in San Francisco but
all over the world and loves the job he does.
The way he is described in this book makes a very good image in my head;
I could honestly picture what he would look like just by reading about him in
the book.
Zoe
is a sassy, determined but very sexy interior decorator who is asked by her
friend to look over Dr Drake’s new home and to re-decorate it.
From
the moment these two meet they are instantly attracted but Zoe has a rule “No
dating clients”. Although she makes this
clear to Dr Drake, he also has a rule “I always get what I want”. So here we have two very determined people
both wanting each other but only one making the moves to get the other.
What
I noticed about this book was that there were issues with each of these people;
they have both been hurt in the past, both guarding their hearts.
Dr
Drake has been hurt before but believes that if he keeps going then his heart
will heal soon, but you can’t help feel for him and you do start to wonder if
Dr Drake can heal his heart with Zoe?
Zoe
knows only too well how people can hurt you, she was hurt by an ex client who
turned out to be her boyfriend, he in turn hurt Zoe so badly she brought the
rule up about no dating clients but even she cannot hide that she has feelings
for Dr Drake.
The journey these two have is so up and down, you cry & laugh and gasp
waiting to know what will next happen you also go through the pain these two go
through and feel and it is very poignant and comforting to know that these
people go through what most of us have been through.
It
is a good read, although, I did feel it went a bit quickly for me, the instant
attraction was too quick for me, however, I do feel it was a good book to read.
