Jenn's Review
One to Hold was a fast paced romance that in my opinion did
not drag or slow down once. Tia threw in some shockers that had my stomach
dropping like I’m on a roller coaster! I really enjoyed this story about
Melissa and Derek.
Melissa’s best friend, Elaine, decides she needs to take a
trip. On this trip, she will begin her new life. She will do what she wants to do. She can even decide
what she wants to drink. She is getting away from a life where her decisions
were made for her. Melissa has filed for divorce from an abusive and cheating
husband. Not to mention just downright sleazy! Wait until you hear all about
what he’s been up to!
Melissa meets Derek while sitting at the bar, sipping on a
drink that tastes disgusting. But, she’s drinking it because she got to order
it. There is an immediate attraction between them and what happens shortly
after meeting is flat out HOT! Melissa has surprised herself but at the same
time she isn’t sure if she can face Derek again. So when he asks if she will
meet him the next night, she can’t bring herself to go. But what can you do
when all your thoughts end up back to this man? Well, you let go of what’s
holding you back and give in to the desire!! It’s only a week, right?
Melissa comes home a different woman. She faces her fears
and tells her soon to be ex that she isn’t changing her mind. She wants nothing
of his, just his signature. And it certainly helps that she finds information
on him. Let’s just say it’ll push him to sign on the dotted line. But she also
found something else and she certainly wasn’t prepared for or expecting it.
Hell, I wasn’t expecting it!
All this leads to her new beginning. She had to leave; there
was no choice in the matter. But what happens when people just don’t want to
let go? Well, it gave me a story that made me anxious, swoon and needing a fan
on high! I only wish that I had more on Derek. He remains a bit of a mystery to me but, hopefully we can get to know him more in the future. *wink wink
