The Naked Fisherman by Jewel E. Ann
4.0

Tropes: Forbidden, mom's friend, age gap, forced proximity, boss/employee, ANGST

Reese is officially 18 years old and is on her way to finally reunite with her mother after her release from jail. Once she arrives, her mom tells her that she has to head out on a business trip leaving Reese to stay in the basement she is renting from a friend. A friend who is 10 years older than Reese and living upstairs.

I definitely agree that I think this is one you should go into blind. This book was forbiddennnn. He's 10 years older than her, her mom's friend, AND her boss. Reese was bought up in a VERY Christian household, and after meeting Fisher and feeling an immediate attraction to him, she struggles with her faith. This book really was a journey. It was so much more than Fisher and Reese's love story. We really get to stand by and watch Reese battle with what she was taught to believe and who she really is. This book is a rollercoaster and may have you cringing at some parts and ripping your hair out at others. This one is deff for the angsty girls out there.
