Book Synopsis
My best friend's brother.
That's all Manuel Zabana has ever been to me.
And yes, he is also the Co-CEO of Zabana Enterprises and a hot millionaire, but to me-Cara Thompson, special education teacher and sunshine girl-he has always been my best friend's sweet, kind, funny, and incredibly hot little brother.
It wouldn't be an issue, but the opportunity arises for me to move back home. I've been living a double life for ten years spending my summers in Baker Oaks and my school years elsewhere, but it's time to go home. The catch? I need to take my girlie pink van with me, and I hate driving on the highway.
One night, over a game of truth and dare, my best friend dares Manuel to drive me back home, and like the gentleman he is, he keeps his promise. Even if it means being stuck on a road trip with me for three weeks. At the beginning, it's all fun and games, but it quickly turns into heated glances, longing touches, and a few very steamy situations.
Maybe I'd believe him when he tells me I'm worthy of love, but he has to be sweet to me or his sister will come for his head. My heart has been broken before, and I don't think three weeks is enough to mend it. Even if he looks like a god and acts like one, too... in an alley, in bed, and in a bathroom.
He says he's loved me for years. He says I deserve it all. But will I ever believe him?
Review Quotes
✨️Ambar does it again! I absolutely loved this book! This is my 2nd book I've read by Ambar, and both have been 5 star reads for me. I love her characters, especially the top tier MMCs that she writes. I love the storylines
Ambar kills me with how well she writes all of her characters with such unique and relatable personalities and perspectives. She makes you FEEL (and it's not for the faint of heart).
This book is the perfect blend of romance and self-discovery, with the central theme of embracing your worth shining through on every page. It's a feel-good story that sticks with you long after you've turned the last page.
