Description

"Christie Ridgway captures the true magic of falling in love."--#1 New York Times bestselling author Robyn Carr

A brooding hero escapes to a mountain hideaway, but a cheery neighbor with her own secrets won’t let him stay alone for long in this steamy, full-length series starter.

“A sizzling combination of heat and heart.” #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Barbara Freethy

Poppy Walker dreams big. Right now she’s determined to turn her family’s dilapidated mountain cabins into a successful resort, no matter what anyone says, and no matter how long it’s taking. So, when a devastatingly handsome stranger arrives on site, wads of cash in hand and asking for a month of privacy, she’s tempted to take him as her first guest…and then she’s tempted to take him on as something so much more.

Ryan Hamilton just wants a place to hole up with his dark memories for a few weeks. But a sunny beauty with a spring in her step keeps luring him out of his cave and makes him smile, laugh, kiss. She’s irrepressible, their attraction’s combustible, and it turns out that an affair with Poppy Walker is just plain…irresistible.

When Ryan finds out that the bright-eyed optimist in his arms has hurts of her own, can he find a way to make them both happy?

Get the whole series!

    It was a good book from start to finish. I could have done without the addition of Linus's screen play writing interspersed within the story, but I really enjoyed the story overall.

    I totally enjoyed reading One Look by Christie Ridgway, book 1 in her new series One and Only. This is actually a revised version of her book Take My Breath away with extra scenes added. Poppy Walker is determined to restore her family’s hillside cabins with almost no budget, the help of her young son, and against the advice of her siblings. Ryan wants to rent one of these cabins before they are ready. She tries to say no but he offers her a sum she just can’t turn down. Little does she know that Ryan is actually a celebrity in hiding from himself, his brother, and the world. He can’t believe he has encountered someone who doesn’t know who he is, Ryan Hamilton. Ms Ridgway once again wrote a wonderful story that draws you into the story from the page one. As with many of her books, there are funny scenes, unexpected drama, and definitely chemistry between Ryan and Poppy. The addition of Poppy’s son, Mason, adds another layer to this story. I highly recommend this book to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
