This is the second book in The Cortell Brothers series. It is recommended they are read in order.
Robert
I fell in love with her in high school and I knew then that she would be mine.
But life interfered. She moved halfway across the country and I went to college.
I knew she moved back home. I knew that her mother had died.
But I did nothing.
I was ashamed. I had walked away from her, thinking it was best for both of us. Now, thirteen years later, I can't leave her alone anymore. I need her, but convincing her that we can still be together is going to be difficult. I hurt her bad when I left, but that's just the beginning of our problems.

Anna
I fell in love with him under the stars. He was my savior when everything in my life was crumbling. But then he was gone and I was all alone again.
Thirteen years later, he's back and he wants me. But I'm too angry. The only reason I'm even speaking to him is he helped me get a job...with his brother. Now I've been caught up in some kind of game he and Eric have going, and I'm stuck with him.
I hate him. But I still love him.
It would be so easy to fall back in love with the man he is now. Deep down, he's the same person, just dressed fancier. But that's the crux of our problem. We're different people than we were in high school.
I just can't see this working, and if we keep trying to go down this road, it'll only end in heartache.

MY REVIEW
Anna's determined her boss's brother will not be allowed back in her life. He was her first (only) love and broke her heart into a million pieces years ago. Now suddenly he waltzes back into town in his fancy suits, expensive car, and wants a second chance?!? Not on her life, and she lets him know. MANY, MANY times. But he's adamant, and her heart just may be softening...
OK, first, the good things: Anna. She's strong, sweet, and not afraid to stand up for herself and let Robert know he needs to work his ass off if he wants her back. The secondary characters such as Carter, who I hope will get his own story, and Robert's brother, Eric. The story itself. It's entertaining and Anna made me laugh more than once when she bossed Eric around.
Now the bad things: Robert. My God but the man was a douche! He had no qualms looking down at the people he left behind. Had no qualms looking down on where Anna was living. I mean come on...who is so snooty with a woman he wants a second chance with?! Dumbass. She told him more than once she wanted him gone but he never listened. I know he had to be persistent or there'd be no second chance, but still, the way he conducted himself irritated me and made me take off a half star.
Meet Giulia Lagomarsino
How does one become a romance author?
It all started on a whim after I suggested supporting my family by donating plasma. My husband responded in his thick Slovakian accent, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.”
And my journey began!
I thought about what I like to read, and tapped into my goofy personality. I try to add humor to all of my books, even those of a more serious nature. I seek to create unique characters and hope that each book is different from the last.
Mostly, I just enjoy writing and hope that my readers get a thrill out of the books.
