Secretly crushing
Crushed by a tragedy
Charlee May’s been crushing on Dexter Hollingworth since she was fifteen. Five years later, a horrific skiing disaster at Mason’s Ski Lift Resort leaves her millionaire dad critically injured and her mom dead at the hands of Dexter operating the lifts. Charlee is suddenly the sole caretaker for her little brother while their world falls apart.
Dexter couldn’t be more different from Charlee. He’s tattooed, avoids exclusive relationships and his Dad has a fair share of illegal dealings. With Dexter’s reputation, almost everyone believes he planned the Mason’s skiing disaster.
And after all these years he’s still crushing on Charlee May, the girl who’s too good for him.
When this cruel twist of fate ties Charlee’s family and Dexter’s reputation together, Charlee and Dexter wonder if their feelings are reciprocated, while Dexter discovers his dad is trying to steal the May’s millionaire fortune.
But like an addiction, one look, one touch, one taste—they’re hooked no matter the consequences.
My Review
5 of 5 Drowning In You
Drowning In You is a MUST READ for 2013! You will get lost in this book so much so that you will drown in it until you are finished and struggle to the top for air. This book made me laugh and cry and scream all at the same time. This is one of those stories that stays with you long after you have read it. It captures your heart right from the first page to the end.
Charlee May has loved Dexter Hollingworth since she was 15 years old. She has secretly and sometimes not so secretly crushed on Dexter but she would never act on her feelings because he is older and a bad boy in every way. So she will crush on him from afar that is until her parents are in a horrible ski accident that takes the life of Charlee's mother and injures her father. This accident has taken so much from Charlee because she has just become the sole provider and parent to her younger brother Darcy. Oh and the accident was at the hands of the ski lift operator Dexter Hollingworth. Yes you read right Dex was at the controls and now Charlee went from loving him and crushing on him to hating him. But as the accident is investigated Charlee finds out some things that just might change her feelings towards Dex and help them come together once and for all.
