Second Best by Noelle Adams


Ashley is used to people seeing 'through' her. She thinks she's ordinary with nothing special going for her. She dresses in accordance to that. Very plain, nothing eye catching. I would even consider it dowdy.

Ashley and Sean become aquinted through business. After a business meeting Sean has an unusual proposition for Ashley.

They now have a contract. In the terms of the contract they meet every other Wednesday, at a hotel to have a no strings attached sexual encounters. This works out very well for both of them. Ashley is in love with one of the partners in firm she works for and Sean has no desire to go down the relationship path again after the loss of his fiance. As time goes on they start having dinner together during their meets and conversation seems to develop naturally between them, which wavers at crossing the terms of their contract.

Ashley starts to develop self confidence in her worth as a person. Sean has always 'seen' Ashley. She now has to decide if she can continue with the terms of their contract or live without Sean and Sean has to decide if he can risk opening up his heart again or live without Ashley.

I love how this story was written. Ashley and Sean's meetings start off as just intense sexual encounters and slowly develops into what I would consider a friendship. With the chemistry these two have it was just a matter of time till feelings are involved. I think the feelings came as a suprise to both of them. Their arrangement work very well for both of them for quite a long time and now it no longer does.

This is one of those stories that I will re-read several times because of how the book drew me and and left me with a good feeling at the end.
