The Swift Family baseball dynasty is a Tennessee
institution. But its brothers are known for more than their athletic prowess.
First born Brick is tall, sexy, wealthy and
intelligent. Unfortunately for the women of Memphis, he’s carrying old wounds
that keep even the most remote chance for real love at a distance. As a respected
sports agent, his athletes are the sole recipients of his attention.
January Jordan is at the top of her game.
She recently negotiated the year’s biggest contract for her Memphis Mavericks
client. Independent, funny, and free as a bird, she’s not looking for a man to
fulfill her already satisfying life. There’s no time!
Then fate looks their way. A chance meeting ignites a flash
fire between them that burns every excuse to ashes and makes denial impossible.
Oh, and that tarot card with the dancing figure found lying
on the step of January’s house? Destiny’s greeting.

My Review
⭐⭐⭐
January Jordan and Brick Swift, have quickly formed a friendship. One built on similar jobs and interests. They find a comfort in each others presence. And in a short time, have come to crave the bond between each other. One that they could see growing into more, if only the pain from Brick's past and the short time that January is back in Tennessee wasn't hindering them.
The world, was a quick and sweet book to dive into. I enjoyed the friendship formed between January and Brick. But I wish their was more build up, more passion. I know it was a novella, but the relationship felt so rushed, without any build or heat, I wanted more. It felt like their connection was lacking at times. I wanted more back and forth between them. I missed the feeling of a true connection between them, more then a sweet friendship. It felt very forced. And I couldn't connect with them as a couple, and I found myself loosing interest. I really love friends to lovers romance's, but this book just wasn't that for me. I would have preferred them as just friends and left it to that.
