I enjoyed reading Michelle Conder's second book. I like her writing style, how she builds the tension. I like the back and forth between Leo and Lexi, the witty banter sprinkled with humour. And I like the characters development.
Leo is a fascinating hero. He has a dark past and loads of secrets. He lives with an ever present guilt and shuts himself down emotionally. For fear of being like his abusive father, he refuses to have anything to do with his son Ty - a son conceived on purpose by a one ...more

Well, this is Michelle Conder's second book and it is fabulous. Really great characters, great storyline, really enjoyable.
Lexi, the heroine is simply wonderful. Leo the hero, is a hunk of a man with many secrets. Slowly, Lexi unravels them one by one.
The chemistry between H/h is great and the lovin' is even better !! Five stars for me! ...more

Way better than the newer ones I've read today. I like that the hero was such a stick in the mud because it was beautiful watching him change for the heroine. The heroine was such a rich and funny blend, she was the exact opposite of the hero and it made the story work really well. Especially her sass.

Una piccola perla. Romanzo costruito sui personaggi. Lui è un russo che si è fatto da sé, con un passato cupo che vuole tenere ben nascosto. Lei una direttrice d’asilo che incrocia la sua strada grazie a un bambino che lui ha avuto da una donna senza scrupoli. Anche lei ha un passato tormentato e un profondo senso di inadeguatezza nei confronti di se stessa. Dialoghi intelligenti, tensione mozzafiato, verosimiglianza nelle situazioni e me lo sono letto di corsa. Proprio piacevole. Cercherò altro

His Last Chance At Redemption by Michelle Conder is a very passionate and emotional story.
Lexi Somers is the co-owner of the day-care center where Ty Weston has been taken care of since he was 1 year old. She has a big connection to Ty, even though she knows that she should not have favorites in the center.

I wanted to like this one more but the hero was a struggle for me. Michelle Conders writing style saved it from being difficult to finish, she has an extremely engaging way of telling a story. She's certainly one of my favourite Presents voices so I hope the next one clicks a little better for me. On the whole this was a decent read though and readers should not be swayed by my personal tastes.

I didn't loved this one so much, the writing style was perfect for a new author, and it was done perfectly, but all in all was an ok novel.
