Heirs of Hansol, Book 2.
Review of Heirs of Hansol, Book 1
Heat Factor: Pretty steamy.
Character Chemistry: Since it started in childhood it’s had a long time to build.
Plot: Adelaide is desperate to regain her family’s respect, in no small part because she’s driven to work for the family company. To regain their respect, she ropes her brother’s best friend, Michael, into helping her pull off an event that will put her back on the map. But then…stuff happens.
Overall: This was a steamy, fun read but I definitely think it needs to be read as a series.
