Hot vivid dreams, that was Emma’s life. Everynight for months all she had were dreams about a man she never met. She never understood why. At times she would go to bed early, just so she can dream about him again. It’s not that she was lonely, she had a wonderful boyfriend she has been for a little over a year. A boyfriend who loved and respected her for her choice of waiting to have sex. No matter how much she loved him, she never felt right giving him her virginity. Then that one night came, when her boyfriend Mike acted a little different and distant…she didn’t understand why. Then he acted out his frustration on her, on why she wasn’t sleeping with him and asked her if she ever will. When she admitted to him how that she does love him, but she’s not sure. She didn’t feel like it was the right time. After her confession he lashed out at her and left her. Instead of being heartbroken, she surprisingly wasn’t.

The trip to Cancun couldn’t come at the right time. She had a wonderful week with her friends, he had lots of fun. At the same time she was hoping to meet her handsome stranger. After a few days she actually saw him from a distance in the flesh, but lost him in the crowd. Then on her last night it happened, she got a chance and finally met him. They hit it off and she got to spend a night with the wonderful man she had been dreaming of. Then she never saw him again.

Six months later, she starts her new job in San Francisco and saw a very unexpected person. It was Brandon, as handsome as she remembered him. Neither one acknowledge that they ever knew each other.

Will they get their second chance together? Or will they keep pretending that night never happened?

This was a quick, enjoyable read and I enjoyed how protected Brandon was of Emma. They always had the connection, even when they didn’t want to admit it at first. Brandon was sweet and intelligent and he was just the man Emma needed. As this is the first book in the series, it is left with a cliffhanger and I cannot wait to sink my teeth into the 2nd book.
