Our Review:

“Growing up, 5 stars”

Sebastian didn’t realize he had a problem until he was faced with it. When he finds out his family has been keeping things from him because of how he handles his personal life it makes him take a step back and access what he’s been up to. Then Ashley, the girl he once had feelings for comes back into his life and finds out he wronged her as well. Will he be able to grow and show her and his family that he can handle everything they throw at him?

Ashley was abandoned by the people who should have been her family except for one person, Ethan. When Ethan needs her, she goes back to the scene of the crime where her life changed. She has to face old ghosts from her past like Sebastian. Sebastian is the only one who has ever gotten under her skin, but he burned her. Ashley accepts the part she played in her past, but he took it too far. Will she be able to let go of her hurt and give him a chance?

I didn’t want to like Sebastian to start with, but I knew if I stuck with it I would like him and I did. It was like he grew up overnight and it wasn’t just for Ashley. He realized people didn’t take him seriously and he didn’t like being looked at as just the playboy. Ashley was forgiving yet cautious, I loved it. Watching these two who had never had a serious relationship before coming together was awesome and I cannot wait to see what Phillips does with the rest of the Knight family.

Excerpt:

Though she and Sebastian had been sharing a suite in California, the fact was, they lived in separate apartments in New York. No matter what she felt for him, London, her job, and her life awaited her. The sooner they got used to being apart the better.

“I’m tired,” she said. “I didn’t rest much on the flight, and we have to be up early tomorrow to meet with Ethan.”

His grin turned into a frown. “Why do I get the feeling you’re pulling away?”

She rubbed her hands over her arms and turned away, not wanting to face him. It was one thing to pull back, another to look him in the eye while doing it. Not when all she really wanted to do was throw herself into his arms. But she lived in reality. So here they were.

“Hey.” He grasped her and turned her around. “I have a question for you.”

“Okay…” she said warily.

“Why are you still here?”

“What?” She hadn’t anticipated that question.

“Why are you still here, in New York? You said you came for Ethan, but when he sent you away, you came with me. And now we’ve wrapped things up. We’re talking to Ethan in the morning. Is your flight home booked?” As he spoke, his hands on her forearms felt like a brand, a reminder that she belonged here, with him.

And she couldn’t let that sway her. Although she’d put work out of her mind, she had checked in with her bosses while she was away, assured them she was returning. She’d bought herself another week, that was it. They understood her leave of absence but wanted her back as soon as possible.

“I’ll take your silence to be a no,” Sebastian said, releasing her arms. “Which brings me back to why? Do you still want to be here? Or are you avoiding Mr. Perfectly Nice?”

She didn’t want to talk about any of this. She still had a week left, and in that time, Ethan would need her once he found out about Mandy’s cheating. Or was that just an excuse? Because she wasn’t ready to leave Sebastian, her conscience asked her.

She glared at him. “Why are you pushing me so hard just because I said I was tired?” she asked, more annoyed with herself but taking it out on him.

“Because of what we shared in California. Because of what we feel for each other, even if you’re not ready to admit it. And because I want to know.”
