Rising Assets

by: Rebecca Zanetti

Synopsis:

Friends with benefits was never the plan…

Melanie Jacobs is in trouble. With three jobs—including running her ranch—and dwindling funds, she’s exhausted. Not to mention desperately trying to hide a secret. Unfortunately, her best friend Colton Freeze knows all too well that’s something is going on, and he won’t give up until he knows exactly what he needs to fix.

Then Colton learns the truth—that Melanie’s future happiness rests in the fickle hands of fate, and her chances for having a family are shrinking with every passing day. Her only comfort is Colton, but when a heated argument between them turns into an even hotter kiss, the boundaries of their friendship are erased, leaving only a scorching-hot hunger for more.

Every kiss—every touch—is a stolen pleasure. But will their new friends-with-sexy-benefits arrangement bring them closer together, or destroy everything they once shared?

My Review:

I really, really enjoyed this awesome romance. I love the friends to lovers theme and Rebecca Zanetti wrote a fantastic story with just that theme here. Melanie and Colton have been friends for years when they finally realize that they are very attracted to each other. Melanie is working so hard to save her ranch and dealing with a devastating secret, she is a strong woman who cares deeply for her friends and neighbors. Colton is trying to prove himself to his family and the last thing he wants or needs is a relationship, especially a problematic one, with one of his best friends, Melanie. Both are afraid of losing their friendship but find that once they start a "friends with benefits" arrangement that they are also afraid of losing more. This tale is filled with hot chemistry, humorous family and friends and a secret or two! I am looking forward to more stories by this fabulous author and highly recommend romance lovers check out Rising Assets! ~ Booklover Sue
