LOVED this book!"*****"Beautiful story of forbidden love between a teacher and student."***** BOOK EXTRACTThe silver box glimmers from the mantelpiece.It's large and thick - the size of a heavy coffee-table book and just as heavy.I've been ignoring it for days now. You have to open it some time, says a little voice. I know. Through the farmhouse windows, I see rose buds on thorny stems. The grass is taller than it's been in a while, and pink and white blossom decorates the fruit trees.Spring.A time of new beginnings.I glance at Ivy, sleeping in her woven basket. She's getting too big for that basket now, but I like to have her with me. As close as possible, wherever I am.Sometimes, life feels so perfect that I can't believe I got so lucky. I'm married to one of Hollywood's greatest actors - my former teacher, and a man I am deeply, obsessively in love with.Marc Blackwell dotes on me, and is the perfect, protective father to our beautiful baby, Ivy.Our luxurious farmhouse is set on five acres of land, and surrounded by flowering, grassy gardens.Some of the bigger fruit trees will be perfect for a rope swing when Ivy grows up. And then of course, there are the horses for her to ride on.Security around the farmhouse is the best there is - no photographer or journalist can get near us.All in all, things should be amazing. And they are. Most of the time. But sometimes I feel like ... oh, it's silly. Everything is perfect. And yet still the silver parcel glimmers.

One night connected them. One decision separated them. One craving tempted them. Ashlyn Hart was done with men, or at least those outside of her books. After stupidly falling for the charms of her cheating ex and having her heart broken yet again, she decided to create a new life. One that involved a career change, a new wardrobe, and the possibility of moving abroad. There was just one hurdle: the confident, stubborn and insanely-tempting Josh Crawford. Josh Crawford hid behind the cliché bachelor lifestyle and a never-ending parade of women. He knew the game and played it well, but the night he tasted perfection four years ago never left him. Back then, he made a spur of the moment decision, one that he has battled with ever since. But beneath the playboy façade was a yearning that wouldn't disappear. A craving for the only woman who could bring him to his knees: Ashlyn Hart. Two weeks changes everything. One night unravels the deepest of desires. A simple taste unleashes memories that can't be tamed. When the girl who dreams of a happily ever after collides with the guy who lives the ultimate cliffhanger, what ending awaits them? Will fear overshadow love? Will the past play hindrance to the future, or will temptation conquer it all?

Through my husband's betrayal, life would lead me on the path to him, Logan Cavanagh? my husband's boss. He's gorgeous, captivating, successful, and also the unlikely hero in my story? a man who would touch my heart so deeply, I knew I'd never be the same again.*** From the moment I laid eyes on Brooke, I wanted her, but there was one problem? she was married to someone else, and I'd never come between a man and his wife.When her life started to unravel, I was there to help pick up the pieces. I knew going in she was never mine to keep, so when she walked away, there was nothing I could do to stop her. I honestly thought it was the end? that I'd never see her again.But months later, fate had us crossing paths again, and her situation had changed. Now the gloves were coming off. I was all in, and there was no way I was letting her go a second time.

Riveting sexual heat... a delicious and definite five star read."Jennifer Sage - Author of The Guardian Archives Series"A fun, often humorous, escapist tale that will have readers blushing, laughing and rooting for its characters." (KIRKUS REVIEW of Breaking Love) MJ Summers is slowly killing me. First she wrote a book about a sexy cowboy and now she's written one about a sexy Frenchman. I loved Breaking Love and it was worth every one of the 5 stars that I gave it.— Karen, A Thousand Lives Book Blog"What other authors so often fail, MJ championed in this book: in many books this long process of will they/won't they is just too long and after some time it loses the whole appeal, but here... it was not flat or boring for a second, it was all the time gripping and had you on the tips of your toes. Altogether, the book has made a fascinating, steamy... quick read. Why quick? Well, because I couldn't put it down, so engrossed was I in Megan and Luc's lives. It is a brilliant love story written with a lot of feeling and understanding.... MJ Summers can really write a hot romance with great characters in it, full of misunderstandings, twist and turns, heartbreaks and hurt but still with a lot of joy and that is a great entertainment. I have really enjoyed this book and will be keeping my eye on MJ Summers in the future."—On My Book Shelf Review Blog"I absolutely loved MJ Summers story writing, she really manages to suck you in and I was actually quite surprised at how engrossing I found Luc and Megan's story...This was an incredibly enjoyable read. It's steamy, it's romantic, it's full of drama and passion. A seriously engrossing, unputdownable read."—Laura's Little Book Blog"...will have readers blushing, laughing and rooting for it's characters."—Kirkus Review of Breaking Love
