Which probably isn't even a secret now that I'm working at Hanson Media. Believe me, Evan, I didn't plan this when I took the job. All I know is twelve years ago you left town without so much as a kiss goodbye. Now you're back and when I'm with you I feel like the years apart never happened. But I promised myself not to fall in love again...especially with you. If only you'd stop looking at me that way! How are we supposed to work together and save your family business when all I can think about is dancing to that romantic song again? Soon you'll even have me believing in second chances....

Promising beginning. Good set up. Nice flashbacks. Then everything went downhill.
I actually don’t know who I despised more, the man who had sex with her, then proposed to her, then left her on prom night and promptly dropped off the face of the earth or the woman who has no qualms about getting racy feelings for the man who did all those aforementioned things.
No, wait. I decided. I dislike her for “becoming a powerful woman” then immediately behaving like a teenage girl whenever he comes near her.

In order to write something i had to give a star. I reached half way and felt no chemistry no plot and just stopped. Disappointed.

3 Stars! ~ Evan has returned to Chicago after 12 years away, only because the family has demanded his presence for the reading of his father's will. Much to everyone's shock, except for his, Evan's name is not mentioned at all. His stepmother stops him from leaving and pleads with him to help her and the family get Hanson Media back on track. Evan having nothing to lose, agrees. Evan left 12 years before because he didn't want any part in his father's manipulations, esp. when they involved the girl he loved and her family. Leaving had seemed the only way to not betray any of them. Meredith has always wondered why Evan disappeared, and now taking the job in the PR Dept. that Helen has recruited her for, puts her in daily contact with Evan. Their reunion is jeopardized when Evan discovers Meredith has deceptions of her own.

This was an okay read. The best parts of this book were more about Hanson Media, Helen and the Meredith duplicity. I liked Evan's character very much, but he lacked development. Meredith's character was kind of flat. I did enjoy this read, though mostly because of it's place in the series.
