Hooked On You (A finalist for the EPIC Award 2011)
Katie Edwards is 28, single, and living the life - or so she thinks. After leaving a groping boss, who enjoyed putting the personal in personal assistant, Katie lands a job as an assistant for Liam Kennedy, a sports freak.
She hates sports, and not only is Liam a sports fanatic, but he's good at everything. The last thing Katie expects is to fall in love. But he’s simply sex on wheels. And the longer they're working together, the more she wants him.
Working for a sexy man sounded fabulous, but she should have been careful what she wished for, because gorgeous employers are a hazard to the heart. Now, Katie’s in lust and he thinks she’s a dizzy chick who only knows how to party. How can she be professional when all she wants is to hop into his bed? Will he ever take her seriously enough to see how perfect they'd be for each other? Or is she doomed to be hooked on him forever?

    Audrey Pearson’s life changed dramatically when WWII broke out and her large home, Twelve Pines on the East Yorkshire coast, became a convalescence home for wounded soldiers. Her life is no longer lavish with entertainment, beautiful clothes and surrounded by a loving family. Soldiers, physically and mentally wounded now fill her home. The smell of disinfectant replaces her mother’s perfume and gone are the friends and acquaintances - instead nurses roam the hallways.
    Captain Jake Harding, a doctor training in psychiatry arrives at Twelve Pines. Audrey immediately finds herself attracted to the Captain, but he is remote towards her. Puzzled by his cold behaviour, Audrey tries to learn more about the handsome Captain. He reveals that he’s lost a wife and baby in childbirth and refuses to ever remarry. However, despite this, Audrey believes she can change his mind and make him aware he doesn’t have to spend his life alone.
    The ice around Jake’s heart begins to melt. For years he has rejected the possibility of finding love again because of the pain it caused him before, but the beautiful Audrey shows him her love and she needs someone to love her in return.
    Could he honestly walk away from her, from the love that could be his?

    Review
    Rating: 4 Hearts
    Anne Whitfield has written a very poignant story of two people from opposite ends of the earth, with opposite goals in their lives who fall in love and have to work out their differences to be able to stay together. The reader will certainly be carried up in this story and will read with pleasure as their love tenderly enfolds. On one side they are afraid of the future will bring, on the other the attraction is so strong that they both take the plunge. The reader will be almost holding her breath until the end, wondering how on earth they can resolve their long distance problem. The love scenes are romantic and sensual. There are no boring moments in this captivating story and the reader will sigh at its satisfying ending. This reviewer would love to read more from Anne Whitfield. ~ Valerie, Love Romance
