After reading Loved You Once, which you definitely need to read if you haven't, I knew I'd absolutely have to read Henry and Sophia's book. And if you can get through the first in the series without knowing these two would be paired up, then you seriously missed something. A Moment Like You is an enemies to lovers romance done perfectly, and it's positively unputdownable. I love getting beneath the surface of a bossy alpha male, and Henry is all that and more. Then we have Sophia, who is exactly what he needs in his life. Of course, they have to get out of their own way, and there's a bit of angst, but this is one of those couples that just belong together - even when they're dealing with that angst. This second Baker’s Creek Billionaire Brothers romance is everything I've come to expect from Claudia Burgoa and is one more favorite story in a list of favorites by this author. It's funny, it's sweet, it's sexy - the only bad thing is I want more of it. Thankfully, there are still some Alderidge brothers left who need some romance in this must-read series.

This is book two in The Bakers Creek Billionaire Brothers series, this is Sophia and Henry's story. I loved this story as much as the first.

After the reading of Henry's father's will stating that he and his brothers have to stay in Bakers Creek for 18 months, Sophia thinks that she has her life to herself working for him from their office in New York, little did she know she was wrong, he wanted her there in Bakers Creek too.

Henry is arrogant and is all business, never having time for himself or fun, but he has always been attracted to Sophia but never did anything about it, the more time they spend together the closer they get.

Follow their story in this book, and see how human Henry becomes.

I completely adored Claudia Burgoa's "A Moment Like You." Main characters Henry and Sophia were both incredibly likeable and well-developed, and it was easy for me to root for them to overcome all of the obstacles keeping them apart.

When the book began, it seemed like it was going to be a fairly straightforward enemies-to-lovers romance, but Henry and Sophia's relationship turned out to be so much more complex than that. They had both been hiding feelings for each other for some time, but didn't act on them for a number of valid reasons. Things finally started to change between them when Henry forced Sophia to move to Baker's Creek with him. As Henry began to open up to his brothers and work through some of his childhood trauma, he also opened up to Sophia, who started to see that there was more to him than the arrogant workaholic she had come to know so well.

The growth of Henry's relationship with his brothers was another highlight of this book. They seemed to grow so much closer over the course of the story and even started to treat each other as friends in a lot of ways. They were certainly more supportive of each other by the end, and I loved that they were comfortable enough to tease each other (lovingly, of course!).

Overall, "A Moment Like You" was a sweet, funny, and touching story that I highly recommend for all fans of contemporary romance and romantic comedy. It was the first book I've ever read by Claudia Burgoa, but it certainly won't be the last. I look forward to the next book in this series!

Have you met the Aldridge brother's yet? Each book is essentially a stand-alone, but book 1 ([b:Loved You Once|51008009|Loved You Once (The Baker’s Creek Billionaire Brothers, #1)|Claudia Y. Burgoa|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1586779202l/51008009._SY75_.jpg|75857465]) introduces you to the brothers.

So this book is Henry's romance, in away it's his redemption. He learns to be human and follow his heart, instead of just doing what his grandfather has set before him. He learns that not everything in life is a business transaction.

"She unravels me. But the moment I touched her, I became undone."-Henry Aldridge.

Sophia is Henry's #1 assistant. She feels over looked, held back, and underappreciated in her job. She wants to hate her boss, but she is attracted to him. She wants to quit her job, but she would never find another one that compensates her the way her current one does. Henry forces her to move to Baker's Creek when his father's will requires it of him and his brothers. She develops a friendship with the other women in the Aldridge brother's lives. Sophia is a female character that women will love. She is strong, sassy, and is devoted to her family.

I love watching these brother's grow. I can not wait for the next book or the rest of the series for that matter.

A Moment Like You is Henry and Sophia’s story and is emotional read. This is the second book in the series, however I read it as a standalone.
The connection between Henry and Sophia wonderful. They have a great rhythm with their banter and humor. Henry is a tenacious man, but Sophia gives as good as she gets. Henry’s character is one of those that grows on you and by the end of the book you just adore him. Sophie has been working for Henry for a while, but once they are forced out of their normal habitat and land in Baker's Creek that feelings are discovered.
As much as the story focuses on Henry and Sophie's romance, this is a story of brotherhood and family coming together. Some of my favorite moments are when the brothers are on the pages.
Claudia writes fun, unique stories. She has a magical way of creating these characters that you aren’t sure you can like but by the end you love. There is a little bit of angst at times. It is such a well written story. This is a refreshing twist on the enemies to lovers trope. You are so engaged from page one you don’t always see what is coming next. There are several “Oh what?” moments in the story that keep it unique and engaging. This was a 4/5 read for me. You should add this to you TBR Pile.
