Unexpectedly You

Unexpectedly You by Lily Santana

 

I really didn’t know what to think about this blurb, but I decided to give it a try.  I am so glad I did.  Ever heard this phrase I love to hate you?  Well this is the best way I can describe this book.  These two characters hate each other and unexpectedly fall for each other.

I liked this book.  The female, Emma, is like a cougar and is a few years older than the male lead, Mitch.  Emma is also a widow with a teenage daughter who has never really dated.

The banter these two have is great and the chemistry is off the charts. I really liked this one.

Synopsis:

Emma LeFleur’s vintage beach home is close to foreclosure. With a business struggling to take off, she has no choice but to turn to her neighbor, sexy and arrogant real estate investor Mitch McKenna—the man whose reputation she’s spent the past six months pulverizing.

Mitch offers her a deal that will save them both: if she’ll convince her neighbors that she’s 100% behind his controversial condo project he’ll save her home. As a prominent leader in the community, Emma’s the only one who can help him salvage the project and keep his employees from getting laid off.

But the chemistry between Emma and Mitch burns surprisingly hot, complicating their deal in a way neither had anticipated. Mitch unearths the long-buried siren within Emma, who’d forgotten how good it is to feel sexy, alive.

As Emma begins to turn public opinion in Mitch’s favor, she’s drawn to him in a way she can’t deny. And Mitch finds himself wanting to prove to Emma that he’s not the player she thinks he is…
