Moving into the new year, Chelle Howard is offered a long-term position in Mazatlan, Mexico, to assist with the opening of Design-Build Houzz. She's been on a long road to recovery and believes this position will provide her with a much-needed solace to face her past transgressions.
However, when she realizes she's not going to be alone, Chelle is perturbed but decides to make the best with her unexpected guest, Zentavio Basir.
Knowing Zentavio is a dishonest and resentful man from uncovered truths, trusting him with her heart is her biggest worry to date. If he could change one thing, it would be writing down his secret…
Zentavio Basir jumps at the opportunity of a lifetime to work abroad and spend time with a woman that intrigues him—Chelle Howard. Unfortunately for Zentavio, he didn't act fast enough with the pure intention of burying his secret. And after Chelle discovers what he wanted to keep hidden, Zentavio finds himself troubled and overwhelmed but desperate to show Chelle that he is worth redemption.
***Chelle and Zen are spinoff characters from the Mergers & Acquisitions Series. Can be read as a standalone HEA***
Growing up in a toxic environment and moving from one unhealthy relationship to another taught me that life was far from a fairytale. But books gave me solace and hope. Among the turmoil, I found refuge in reading. Engaging in stories allowed me to experience different worlds, feel deeply without judgment, and escape my reality.
This sparked my passion for fiction writing. Combining my own experiences with those of others, I create stories filled with emotion and depth that readers can relate to and escape within when necessary. My goal is to ensure everyone feels seen and heard, no matter their background, by weaving universal struggles into purposeful story arcs. I aim to show readers what resilience looks like and that there is always light ahead if you hold onto your courage.
Join me on a journey of personal truth and fictional adventures that offer comfort during tough times.

"Wait For Tonight" by Amber Ghe
My Assessment:
Chelle Howard had a lot going on in her life as 'she's been on a long road to recovery.' But it seems like things are looking up for her as she is 'offered a long-term position in Mazatlan, Mexico, to assist with the opening of Design-Build Houzz.' Everything seems great until Chelle finds out who will be accompanying her on the trip...Zentavio Basir.
What had happened in Basir's life that he kept to himself, and what will happen when Chelle finds out about his secret as she goes snooping around?
How will this work out for them [Chelle and Basir] when everything comes out? Will they be able to deal with it? Also, what all had gone on in Chelle's life that she had overcome? So this is where I say you must pick up this story, and possibly since these characters are from the spinoff from the Merger & Acquisitions Series, maybe take a look at those series to help fully understand this story entirely.
This book started out pretty slow to me, but got kind of interesting toward the end. Zen and Chelle both had pretty hard lives, but they seemed to be good for each other.
Beautiful story. I hope Zen gets to heal from his past. He needs to speak his truth. His life was so messed up because he took the fall for his coach. Great Read!
