Ember Marx lives a pretty boring existence. She lives and works at the cabin rental agency that her mom owns and spends most days cleaning cabins or checking guests in. She dreams of getting out and seeing more of the world than just this small town where nothing ever happens but that would mean finding a way to free herself from her mother’s tight clutches. She thinks that’s impossible. Then she meets Weston.
Weston Xavier is only in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee to meet with a hotel developer. He's an investor and he's used to trusting his gut when it comes to big decisions. Five minutes in this sleepy town and he knows that this trip was a waste of his time. Pigeon Forge doesn't need another hotel, it needs more of a town. He can't wait to get back to his life in New York but then he walks into his rented cabin and finds a red-haired beauty. Suddenly, his predictable life is bursting with colors.
What happens when Weston finally convinces Ember to give him a chance? Fireworks.

Good read. I thought it was a cute story. No drama other than her mom. Safety gang: She was attacked when she was younger by her mother's boyfriend, but it wasn't descriptive and it was interrupted.

Il libro è brevissimo, tutto è estremamente veloce, la trama, i dialoghi, i pochi sviluppi. È davvero difficile entrare nella storia per cui la lettura mi è risultata frustrante: non vengono approfonditi né i personaggi né le loro emozioni, lasciando solo una sensazione di incompletezza. Non c'è il tempo necessario per coinvolgere davvero il lettore, per cui anche i dialoghi e molti passaggi narrativi sono stati imbarazzanti piuttosto che intrattenenti.
Nonostante la difficoltà nell'apprezzare il formato specifico, anche le scelte linguistiche e stilistiche non sono state assolutamente nelle mie corde.
I enjoyed this spicy little treat immensely. Ember’s lonely life became so much more when she meets Weston. They have an instant attraction that leads to a beautiful connection with undeniable chemistry. The only thing I didn’t like about this book is that it ended. Great story!
I really enjoyed reading this story. It was well written and the storyline flowed even tho there were some parts that were, to some, would be a sensitive topic, but it was handled gracefully. I enjoyed the zing of lust at first sight, and how it never dimmed. I enjoyed his emotional support of her, believing in her so she could believe in herself. In the end, it was love that won, with a sweet, loving, perfect for them ending.
This is a great fast-paced and Instagram love quick read. I feel like I had a great plot very nice story line would have been nice if I had more meat to it but it was a great for a little filler read
The perfect holiday read. Weston and Ember are sweet and sexy. What was supposed to be a business trip turns into Weston's forever and the beginning of a new life for Ember.
I loved the first half but the second half just wasn’t it for me and the epilogue kind of unnecessary. Also I felt like it wasn’t enough smut for the way they teased it?!
Ember Marx works with her mom running a cabin rental agency in the small mountain town of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. But most of her life Ember's mother has belittled her and called her horrible names.
Weston Xavier is in Pigeon Forge to see about possibly financing a new hotel in town. Meeting the sweet Ember Marx was turning out to be far more exciting than the hotel. But seeing the relationship between Ember and her mother breaks his heart.
This book had very little plot. Ember is only nineteen and has had an emotionally abusive life, yet we get the impression Weston must be close to forty since he seems to be extremely wealthy - but we never learn much at all about him otherwise.
Plot: Ember works at her mother's "resort" - it's a small collection of cabins in Tennessee that is in danger of shutting down because of a possible big development coming in. She works hard though, doing most of what needs to be done while her mother lazes about and insults her. Then Weston shows up. He's everything she's ever wanted, and the bonus is that he wants to take her away with him.
Commentary: Her mother was awful! I wish there was a better explanation for her behavior, but I guess some people are just horrible human beings. Weston was great because not only did he stand up for her, he stood at her side and gave her the courage to stand up for herself. I think leaving was the only choice for them, and she absolutely deserved to get out into the world with a man who loved her.
Quick and easy read about a business man in town for work and a cute and feisty red headed chamber maid. Ember is a small town girl with the dream of escaping and go explore the world. She soon can resist the hot Weston that promises her everything she ever dreamed of.
"Lei è tutto per me. La prima sera a cena mi ha detto che questo era un viaggio sprecato, ma si sbagliava. Questo viaggio è stato il più bello e significativo che abbia mai fatto in vita mia. Ho trovato la ragazza con cui passerò il resto della mia vita. Qualcuno che riempirà la mia vita di colori, con i fuochi d'artificio che lei ama così tanto."
A child gets attacked and the mother blames the child. How could anything be worse for Ember. Working day in and out ends when she meets Weston. He shows her how bright and beautiful life can be. Another great book with a fabulous man who wants to love and protect his girl.
