Strong AND Caring. What a man!
Annie & Brett's story was a sweet quick read. A stubborn independent woman (gee I can relate to that) and a strong but caring man, yeah that's a recipe for an interesting forever 😉
I totally swooned over the fact that these two went to HS together and had caught each others eye then and now that circumstances put them back together Brett isn't taking a chance, he's going to find a way to make Annie his.
The fact that Annie needed care and attention rubbed her the wrong way which I totally get; but the chemistry between her and Brett was so strong, she didn't stand a chance. He got to care for her (in ALL ways) and she learned to lean.
My only issue was a continuity issue with a robe, it threw me off the story for a bit having to double check what I'd read. Otherwise it was another great read from Flora!

Brett had a crush on Annie when they were in school together but nothing happened now he is a rich successful has a great business and hes Annie in home help for 24 hours after her surgery.
So i liked this book the premises of it and backstory but hated how he left her after smexy time it was such a D move. I thought she was way to forgiving. And then we had the epilogue i love s good one but the ending wasnt right and it just jumped right in to the epilogue.

A beautiful love story
Brett knew Annie in school but from a distance. She was in the popular group while he kept his distance. He was a loner. Many years later, Annie's ankle surgery brings them back together. Brett owns and runs at health care center. Let me tell you, I've had a lot of experience with home health care providers and not one of them came close to Brett (yes, darn it...lol). Just kidding. Loved how this story flowed. Understand how their emotions overtook professionalism. It's a well written book. Written by Cindy :)

Pretty good book
Annie had surgery on her ankle and her sister can't watch her anymore so she hides a nurse. Brett show up and it's a blast from the past. Annie is a stubborn ding dong. Sorry, well not really sorry. She has to be so independent and it's kind of painful. But the story is good.

So sweet
This was such a sweet short read! Two very independent people who had crushes on each other years back, now have a chance to act on them. Can they figure out if it is worth it or not?

Ok
This wasn’t a bad read, just eh. It was an ok story with likable characters. Just felt that there was something missing.

Love this “more than” a second chance romance. More like high school acquaintances who finally got a chance with their crush.

Better than expected. But naming your characters Cagney and Greta, poor girls.
