I ate this up!!!!
There is a 12 year age gap between Nova and Lila. They met when she was 5, and his family moved into her neighborhood. Lila came from a violent family. Nova was always there to protect her, and he became her best friend. At a very young age, Lila knew she loved Nova. He had been known as Casanova and all the ladies flocked to him. Lila hoped that Nova would see her as a woman, and love her back. Nova has a lot of self doubts, but something happens where he realizes that she isn’t the little girl he grew up with anymore.
There is soooo much angst in this. I felt a little bad for Lila when she kept getting rejected by him. The way their friendship to relationship bloomed was SO beautiful. I loved his realizations, and how he couldn’t resist. The spice is some of the hottest I’ve read, and I think it just has to do with the insane amount of built up chemistry. I loved all the flower references, his artwork on her, and the hidden messages. *sigh* Nova is such a good man.
