I got a copy, looked at the blurb, and thoughtthat there was no way I would like story. I thought Connor tooblatant and unfeeling in the blurb and Faith’s character seemed a bitfragile. Imagine my surprise and complete joy when I discovered thatI was wrong. And I was SO wrong. Yes, Connor wanted control of Faithin the bedroom with no questions asked. Yes, Connor wanted to be CEOof a company and Faith was his means to an end. But in his achievinghis goal, he realized that he found so much more than he thought hewanted and he never once lied to Faith. Not one time did he give her afalsehood and for that reason alone, I fell in love with ConnorKingston. His ability to bring out the best in Faith, while fallingin love with her, was uncanny in its realism. Faith was an open bookto me and I could undeniably relate to her. She was self consciousabout her looks, which Connor found utterly enchanting. Her confidencein Connor was unconditional and while I worried about her giving hertrust to him as soon as she did, he proved to me and to Faith that hewas an outstanding choice.If you have not read The Fortune Hunter by Jasmine Haynes, might Isuggest running as quickly as possible to the nearest bookstore andobtaining it?
