Just Can't Get Enough
Both down-home sweet and seductive, Cheris Hodges's new novel is about breaking the rules, going back home...and finding more than your heart's desire... Celina Hart had security, a steady job, a predictable fiance...and nothing that was making her truly happy. She gave it all up to gamble on her talent, and found success she'd never imagined as one of New York's hottest painters. But when she returns to her South Carolina hometown to care for her ailing father, she gets an even bigger surprise. That "bow-legged" neighbor's boy she used to play with has grown up into Darius McRae, a lawyer who gave up the D.C. fast-lane to get back to his roots. Now, Darius' dark-chocolate build and slow, easy smile are proving to be just as tempting as any city lights...
The last thing Darius was looking for was a relationship. He'd been burned by too many women who put finance over romance--including his conniving ex-girlfriend Cortina. But Celina's sense of humor and unpretentious ways are igniting more than his passions. And when Cortina starts stirring up a mess of trouble, Darius will do whatever it takes to show Celina a home-grown love is a dream worth everything..."

This book I just could not put down. I wanted to know crazy Tiffany's every move. I had no prblems visualizing the characters... especially Darius!
Storyline was great. It was intense and sensual.

I am a big fan of Cheris Hodges books, however, I didn't find this book as interesting. Darius and Celina had a good storyline, however, the storyline with Tiffany seemed unrealistic. I thought that it was superficial. Maybe if readers were given a little more background information about Tiffany, I would have been able to connect more with her character in the book.

Celina Hart and Darius McRae have both been burned by past relationships. I loved the connection and chemistry between this couple and the obstacles they faced. Another great read from Cheris Hodges. I absolutely love her books.
