The Handshake Agreement (Book 1) by A. Akinosho – Review by Lorralei Hoerner

The Handshake Agreement by A. Akinosho
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3 1/2 Stars

The Handshake Agreement is a second chance with age gap romance filled with drama, power, greed, romance with definite heat. This was a good story, but I was very torn how I felt about Declan…he was just a bit over the top…controlling…at times a bit much of the being possessive. Overall this was a good story with lots of ups and down, a bit of a rollercoaster of emotions.

Declan is looking for money and power…being on top after graduation his father sets his eyes on Declan becoming like him with the company empire that is built. All Declan wants is to become highly successful and being single not looking for love. When Declan meets one of his sister’s friends, Anne, there is instant spark that was undeniable. Anne is new to town and becomes best friends with Sara, Declan’s sister. Anne knows she is definitely not looking for love of any sort, but once she meets Declan, the spark is instant. The attraction between Declan and Anne is fierce.. very consuming…..to the point of minutes of being married…but when Declan’s dad calls an upon him on an agreement that is made long ago… Declan must break Anne’s heart that he promised he would not do. The agreement shakes Declan to the core, but leaving Anne was an ultimate betrayal.

When things start to come to the surface of greed and blackmail…will Declan win back Anne’s trust and love….
