She ran from her wedding—
and fell into her ex’s arms!
Supermodel Eliot Gamble has been jilted mere minutes before her wedding and it’s sent her into a tailspin—just as her career in couture fashion is ending. For a lifelong people pleaser, it’s the ultimate nightmare. In steps champion swimmer and former lover Soren Grantham. Soren sweeps Eliot away from the paparazzi to his family’s estate. And as Eliot discovers what she really wants, her old flame may just become a wildfire…
Sensual and satisfying! The first book in the Dynasties: Calcott Manor series from Joss Wood sets up the series by introducing us to a group of cousins/siblings and the grandmother who helped raise them. The setting is endearing as they reconnect on home base and the set up of things to come leaves a generous desire for the series to continue.
Eliot is relatable and easy to like. I would have liked to have seen some resolution on the family front for her, but overall found her satisfying.
Soren was on the verge of wishy washy, but he had a good heart. Watching him evolve into the man that Eliot deserved was heartwarming.
I recommend this book to anyone that likes a close knit group of siblings with family drama all around them as each one stumbles upon their true love.
