When tragedy ruins her life, Amalie Aagaard cuts ties with her family and moves to Boston, leaving her past behind. Even in another city, far away from the man who loves her, memories plague her mind.

Then, one night at a club, her life takes a turn during a sensual encounter with a stranger. Jarrod Harrison is determined to discover more about Amalie, but she wears a mask, shielding herself from him. With a bit of persistence, eventually, Jarrod dominates his way into her heart. Amalie lets go a little at a time, on her way to finding happiness with this man.

When the past rears its ugly head, can their newfound relationship survive? Or will it shatter their future together?

    Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2015

    For the love of baseball! This a great read! The cover made me buy the book. Amalie and Jarrod’s sweet hot romance keep me up past bedtime to finish it.
    Amalie is a 6th feet tall ultrasound technician living with her best friend and roommate Jo. One night, she meets a tall, sexy guy in the VIP room at a local club. Then she leaves the club before she learns anything about him. But she doesn’t forget the “mystery” guy who made her feel feminine and vulnerable, especially while being sensitive about her height and curves. So, to capitalize on that hot duo, she indulges in a “hobby” as a pinup model.
    A few days later, he calls her out of the blue and takes her out on a date. The next thing you know she is dating “mystery” man with the red Ferrari and NYC penthouse apartments. He introduces her to his “colleagues” and takes her to work with him. Who takes the girl you dating to work with you? She wonders. Turns out Mr. Mystery Man, Jarrod, is a professional baseball player. Amalie does not follow sports and has no idea what a big deal Jarrod is in the sports world.
    The story is very romantic; the sex is very HOT! Everything Jarrod throws, in and out of the bedroom, has a lot of heat behind it. He is a guy who wants to introduce her to his friends and family. He is the perfect guy to protect and love her. The romance is very beautiful with elements of suspense. I hope to see more Boys of Summer romances from this new author.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Finally an adult relationship that was fun to read
    Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    I liked this book, especially Amalie, the female protagonist of this book. She was smart and confident in herself and her decisions in her life despite experiencing a heinous moment in her young life. It was made worse when she received blame and no support from her immediate family and best friend. The contrast in Amalie's family to Jarrod's, the male protagonist and romantic interest, were astonishing. I admired the strong characters of both of our protagonists which led to an intense chemistry and attraction between the two. Their physical relationship was inevitable from the instant lust when they first met, but both of them waited several weeks after getting to know one another before they decided to take it to the next level. It was great to read about an adult relationship where they communicated freely with one another. They always attacked their hardships together, which was refreshing. I did find Amalie's lack of baseball knowledge odd since she lived in one of the biggest baseball cities, Boston, for 7 years, but this is minor. There were a lot of racy intimate encounters that could of set fire to your e-reader. At times, it was overwhelming and I did get tired of Jarrod asking who Amalie belonged to, but overall I did like the story and recommend this book wholeheartedly.

    We meet Amalie, an ultrasound technician and her roommate, Jo who live in Boston. They go out to a club where Amalie meets Jarrod. As her side job, Amalie is also a pin up model for magazines.. They meet up after one of her photo shoots and head to a close by diner for their first real date. Jared and Amalie continue to date long distance style with meet ups in between.

    Jarrod & Amalie go out to lunch with Jarrod’s teammates & their wives then head back to relax before Amalie has to meet with her brother, Niklas. Eric, Amalie’s former boyfriend used to beat and sexually abuse so Amalie had had enough & moved to Boston with Jo to start college courses.

    I loved how Jarrod’s & Amalie’s relationship blossomed. Ii love everything about this book especially all the twists & turns. Can’t wait to dive into book 2

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, Sexy Read!!
    Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    After reading the first chapter my first thought was "this girl is funny and..... and an Amazon!!" She's SIX FEET TALL!! Followed by "How is that gonna work?" I like when a man can pick up a woman and toss her onto the bed. Well, enter mystery man! Amalie may be a tall drink of water.... but it turns out that Jarrod (Mystery Man) is just a delicious, tall, hunk of a man! A hunk who easily tosses Amalie around because he is so strong and ALL alpha male. He carries her "like she weighs no more than ten pounds."

    And he may be all alpha male.... but he is also sweet, and romantic and caring. Jarrod is also HOT. The sex scenes..... OH MY GOD!! So hot. If you are squeamish about sex scenes - this book may not be for you. For me, the author weaves their love story so intricately that the sex scenes are just an extension of the love that is building between them.

    This book has it all. I laughed. I choked up. I lost my mind over the beautifully erotic sex scenes and then I laughed again. And I could not put it down. I literally read this book in a day (and most of a night!) I read voraciously and it doesn't happen very often that a book comes along that I just CANNOT put down!! I highly recommend this fun, sexy book. I cannot wait to see what this new author comes out with next!

    Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2016

    I absolutely loved this book! I was drawn in from the first page and was never bored. Amalie and Jarrod are an awesome couple. Amalie's past is realistic and her struggles after her past experience with a man were easy too feel. I enjoyed the way Jarrod and Amalie met and how he immediately was protective of her. Amalie remained her own woman throughout the book. She models and Jarrod isn't necessarily a huge fan, but he supports her and she does it because it makes her happy. Unlike a lot of romance books, Amalie and Jarrod have separate lives that come together. They support one another and do not make the other chose between their dreams and each other. Their love story spoke to me. It was believable and strong. I love that Amalie isn't a size zero, and that Jarrod loves her just the way she is.
