My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the story of Mason Adams and Gabi Turner, he makes handmade wooden furniture and has his own business doing it and she is an interior designer in business with her best friend, they have just landed a contract to work on a Victorian house for a very exacting customer, so when they need exclusively designed furniture, Gabi’s best friend knows just who to turn to, so they end up and Mason’s furniture workshop and showroom, but when they meet there for the first time, it is unforgettable.

When the first design has been shared, they agree to work together on it and this is just the start of their partnership and although she didn’t show the slightest sign that there was a connection there, Mason is determined to remedy that as soon as he can. Later on as the ladies gossip over wine and chocolate, Gabi cannot deny that she has the hots for him, especially when her skin flushes every time she thinks of him, but knowing that nothing would ever happen after the last guy she married and escaped from three years before.

As the renovations progress, Gabi finally gets the go ahead for one of her design boards and she is over the moon, the table is the thing that sealed the deal and when the client meets the man making it, she decides that she wants all the furnishings done by him, that means that Mason and Gabi have to work together a lot more. However, the high from the meeting doesn’t last when she receives a text from an unknown number and Gabi knows exactly who it is and it is the last thing she wanted or needed right now. The next day Gabi goes to the house to start work on the swatches and thinking that she will be on her own, she is completely surprised and horrified at the same time when she turns round to see Mason is in the house as well, this just amuses him and irritates her to now end, but when he becomes more flirtatious with her, it takes all her self control to stay that way, but unbeknownst to her, Mason is using all his self control to stay away from her, but he is determined to bide his time and work on her slowly.

This he does and Gabi is not as immune to his charms as she may think and it doesn’t help when her best friend is like a dog with a bone and is either encouraging him or her, or leaving them both in situations where flirting is a definite consequence, but will Gabi be able to keep her developing feelings for Mason under wraps, or will she stop him from capturing her heart like he has started to do with her body? This is a steamy romance which is as passionate as it is full of character which keeps you guessing until the very end!
