She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life.
Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men. When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room. Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch. They were together for years-before he broke her heart. I went off to college, and he got the girl. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits. Growing up, the three of us were friends.ĭeep down, I only ever wanted her. It’s a killer book! One I’m so, so happy I read!įrom New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new, sexy standalone novel. Gentleman Nine is a best seller for a reason. Once I started I was all in and that’s from the pure beauty of Penelope’s writing skills. The overall set up of this novel is actually genius in the way that despite us getting a larger insight into this book from the blurb, Penelope manages to throw in curveballs and never once did I find it predictable or obvious. I think a few times, my butterflies got butterflies! No joke! The swoon was off the charts in Gentleman Nine. My grin at times actually hurt my face but I was so invested in the happiness and ease of these characters that I didn’t care. I loved that Amber and Channing had a comedic value to their banter. I would say this book was one of Penelope’s lighter books, as in not as angsty as some of her previous ones, but I still gobbled up every word and loved every second of it.
Nothing ever feels forced or rushed and it makes me appreciate her stories and characters so much more. Channing and Amber are such an amazing couple, Penelope has a way of weaving her characters together so seamlessly and effortlessly. Penelope Ward does it again with another breathtaking novel of lost love and second chances!įrom the very beginning of this novel I was swept off my feet with an instant, believable connection that built slowly and so intensely.
