The King family is well known in the world of business. Matthias, being the oldest, is being groomed to take over soon. Ava is the daughter of Mr. King’s driver and has had the privilege of growing up alongside the King boys with Theo being her best friend. She carries a torch for Matthias, but he always treats her as if she is not good enough to step foot in his family’s home. Little does she know that Matthias returns her feeling but has been trying to fight them as he doesn’t feel like he is worthy of her. When a snowstorm moves through these two are stuck together. The hate turns to passion as they can no longer fight their attraction. When everyone returns her father decides to send her to her aunt’s home and she asks Theo, who is supposed to be her best friend but secretly in love with her, to pass the message along to his brother, but he conveniently forgets. Five long years have passed, and she is now back at the King estate. The have to potential to be together and happy but there is someone that stands in the way. Will they get their happily ever after? This was a quick, easy read and very hard to put down. The growth of the characters was great, and they were well rounded. It was a wonderfully written story and I do hope that this is the beginning of a series about this family. I would love to read stories about the other King brothers. As a first-time reader of this author, I enjoyed her writing style and look forward to reading more of her work.
