The
last sizzling novel in Kristen Proby's Romancing Manhattan series finds a
widower falling deeply in love again with a woman who has scars of her own.
After
All by USA Today, New
York Times, & Wall Street Journal bestseller,
Kristen Proby, is now live!
When Carter Shaw’s wife died five years ago, he was left to pick up
the pieces not only of his own broken heart but also that of his devastated
eight-year-old daughter, Gabby—leaving him with no time for anything else, let
alone dating. But recently, Carter has noticed women again and soon even begins
dating. No one has stuck around for long, mostly thanks to one very angry
Gabby.
Nora Hayes has worked as Carter’s assistant for years. Recently
divorced herself, Nora spends many hours at the office and helping Carter with
his daughter whom she adores. Despite loving her job and being wrapped up in
the Shaw family, Nora’s never given her handsome, kind workaholic boss a second
thought, especially in the romance department.
But then the snowstorm of the century hits, and Nora finds herself
stranded at work with Carter overnight. And suddenly, she sees Carter in a
whole new, sexy light. The sadness that’s lived in his eyes for so long has now
been replaced with pure, unadulterated lust—and Nora isn’t quite sure what to
do about it. For after the pain of her divorce, she never thought she would
give love a second chance.
Carter and Nora have always believed in never combining business with
pleasure. But how can they possibly deny the all-consuming chemistry between
them...?

The characters had great backstories and depth. He was finally ready to move on after he lost his wife to cancer. She was finally realizing how attractive he was after her divorce. Both had strained relationships with their parents. His daughter’s reaction to both of them moving on was as realistic as I have seen in a long time.
Chemistry was abundant and undeniable. The connection between not only Carter and Nora, but Nora and the rest of his family was wonderful to see. I especially liked the letters as they gave an insight into one character that was pivotal.
Family isn’t always the one you were born into, but those you choose to have in your life. If I had any complaints about this book it would be that his reactions to some of the issues presented got to be a little ridiculous, but the way he apologized was good. Nora could also be a little quick to react and shut down communication from time to time.
Overall, I really liked this book. So much so that I read it in one day. I highly recommend this book. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest, voluntary review.
About Kristen:
Kristen was born and raised in a small resort
town in her beloved Montana. In her mid-twenties, she decided to stretch her
wings and move to the Pacific Northwest, where she made her home for more than
a dozen years.
During that time, Kristen wrote many romance
novels and joined organizations such as RWA and other small writing groups. She
spent countless hours in workshops, and more mornings than she can count up
before the dawn so she could write before going to work. She submitted many
manuscripts to agents and editors alike, but was always told no. In the summer
of 2012, the self-publishing scene was new and thriving, and Kristen had one
goal: to publish just one book. It was something she longed to cross off of her
bucket list.
Not only did she publish one book, she’s since
published close to thirty titles, many of which have hit the USA Today, New
York Times and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists. She continues to self
publish, best known for her With Me In Seattle and Boudreaux series, and is also
proud to work with William Morrow, a division of HarperCollins, with the Fusion
Series.
Kristen and her husband, John, make their home in
her hometown of Whitefish, Montana with their two pugs and two cats.
