Description
David's been in my heart since the moment we met.

But he's always been off-limits. A close friend of the family, and way too old for me.

That doesn't stop me from wanting him. Even his leaving town hasn't changed my feelings.

Now that I've graduated college, I'm moving closer to him — right next door.

But that's still not as close as I want to be.

Even though years have passed, I still know he's the only man for me.

And this time, I'm not letting him get away without a fight.


If you’re in the mood for a quick read, this is the book for you! No cliffhangers or cheating here. Just romance, steam, a dash of instalove, and a guaranteed happy ending!

A May/December romance. First Loves Duet, Book 1 of 2.

First things first; I really like the cover of this book!
Only his is book one in the first loves duet series. This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. Emily has had a crush on her father’s best friend for years. Over the years she did her best to get his attention until he moved away. Years later and Emily is trying to get her man to notice her but will it work?
The chemistry between Emily and David is clear to see and I loved them as a couple. I just wish that there were a few more scenes of them officially together.
I really liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Another brilliant story by Mia Madison.
David was Emily's father's best friend. Emily has had a crush on him since the first time they met. But then David takes a new job and moves away.
Years later Emily is a nurse and takes a job in the town that David lives in. She also moves in right next door to him.
David fights it but soon realised that it's a fight he can't win.
A brilliantly written story with excellent characters and a happy ending guaranteed.

A Long Wait

Emily felt the sting of a teenage crush with her father's best friend, David. Her heart felt it was more but time was not on her side. But as she grew older, opportunity was on her side. And she was going after the man she loved.

Love Will Not Stop

Emily is struck with something deep the moment she sees her father's friend David. She knows he is the man for her but how can she get him to notice her? Will he let her love him or will her father never let them be together?

Emily has always been attracted to David, and despite their age difference, she's determined to make him notice her.

With just a bit of drama, Emily & David's romance is tender & sweet.

It was a nice quick read and I liked how she acknowledged her behaviour as a teenager was wrong. I'd have liked more reaction from her Dad but it was a quick read so wouldn't really for
