The Stranger
A chance meeting on a flight from Paris to New York changes two lives…forever.
A few hours shared between two strangers who happen to sit next to each other on a flight from Paris to New York, suddenly hurl the lives of Michel Atherton, Partner and CEO of an international investment firm and artist Nyah Morrell, toward a future where they discover desire and love in ways that neither had ever expected.
With a single look, a strikingly beautiful young woman instantly captures Michel Atherton’s attention, resulting in an explosion of desire, followed by a growing need to have her in his life. But his past and a former lover complicate things, resurrecting the agonizing specter of old enemies, danger, and death. Nyah Morrell-innocent, emotionally independent, yet shy by nature, senses the unexplained darkness that seems to surround the mysterious, breathtakingly handsome man who is slowly but surely capturing her heart. They begin to explore their budding relationship, however, neither can foresee the forces that threaten them.
This intriguing, international novel crosses an ocean to discover if two people from very different worlds can overcome the bitter memories of old relationships, painful reminders of past betrayals and the very real peril that threatens to overtake their lives as they try to build a future together.

This is one of those vacation reads or a long ride and you got the backseat all to yourself reads. Just a lay back and enjoy the story type of read.
This book was about two strangers that meet on a plane and have that insta attraction to each other. Due to his ex-girlfriend, Michel the big time business man wasn't about that love life. That was until he set his eyes on the sweet and beautiful Artist Nyah.
These two went from nah I'm good to ahhhhh yeaaahhh get it get it real quick. They took me on a ride of the hot and steamy every chance they got together, and you know what? I lusted up every bit of it.
Michel and Nyah's story was sweet and steamy with a lil bit of suspense to keep you wondering whodunit!
I enjoyed reading this and can't wait to read more from Ms. Buena!
Here's my couple

This is my first book by this author. I was gifted a copy of the book which was already published for my honest review.
This is Nyah and Michel's story. Two strangers who meet on a plane and develop a relationship. I like the couple and enjoyed their story.
The book took me a little while to read because it was very descriptive. The book was a long read because of this. This is not a criticism because there are a lot of readers who enjoy their authors describing everything from the furniture, the kind of wood its made from and all of that. Unfortunately, I am not one of those readers. The book for me would have gone at a much quicker pace and made the story feel more riveting without all of that descriptive text. Aside from this issue, for me it was a good read. I would have also like to see the couple dialogue more about the various tensions that were in their relationship.
I would recommend this story as a good read.
