Struggling with the recent discontent with his life made Mitch Burnett wish he hadn’t promised his neighbor he’d look in on her niece while she was housesitting for the summer. An Amish widow, he was sure she was going to be a prudish, bible thumbing pain in the ass. Much to his surprise, Hannah Hershberger was nothing like his preconceived notions made her out to be. His immediate response to the full curves her plain clothing couldn’t hide as well as to the innocent surprise and interest reflected on her pretty face took him off guard, especially since the pure, wholesome girl next door type was not for a man as sexually dominant as he. Determined to keep his lust in check, he swore he’d keep his distance from Hannah unless she needed some neighborly help. But Mitch wasn’t prepared for Hannah’s determination to meet her challenges head on, which included her attraction to him. Hannah was looking forward to spending the summer tackling the challenges of immersing herself into the modern world, but none of those challenges had included her body’s response to her neighbor. The closeness of his tall, thickly muscled body brought about sensations she had only felt when making love with her husband. After discovering her responses weren’t a fluke, she brazenly asks Mitch to have sex with her, thinking a one-night stand would put an end to those irritating, stimulating feelings. Unable to resist, Mitch tables his more dominant urges to spend a night with Hannah. What started out as a one-time thing soon turned into an affair when she realizes how much had been missing from her marriage bed. Each time Hannah embraces something new, Mitch discovers he wants more until he finally introduces her to his more dominate practices at his club. It took an assault on Hannah and a terrible loss to make her question how far she was willing to stray from her moral beliefs for the sake of pleasure and sends her running back to her roots to find the answers.
Mitch Burnett’s life seems to be up in arms, after he agreed to look after his neighbors’ niece. Matt has a set of expectation for Hannah that Hannah quickly dispenses. Mitch is also a Dom. He tries to keep is lust for Hannah in check, but Hannah’s forward nature takes him for a run for his money.
Hannah Hershberger is staying at her Aunt’s house while she is away. She is thinking over her life and where she wants to go from here after the death of her husband. Hannah struggles with her faith and the modern world. She is not sure which way she will go but she wants to expand her horizons. Hannah is very forward person, asking for what she wants is not what I expected from an Amish woman.
The connection between Hannah and Mitch is intense. I loved that Hannah was forward and direct than I expected. The only thing I was thrown by was how she adapted to modern conveniences so quickly. I expected Hannah to have more problems than she did. I enjoyed how once Mitch got to know her, he tried to help her more and more. The sex scenes were scorching.
I found this book well written with a unique plot. The main characters and the secondary characters were fascinating. While the ending was a little predictable, I enjoyed the twists and turns that kept this book interesting. I had a hard time putting this book down. Overall, this was a very entrancing book and I hope to see these characters again in the future.
