This review is from: Depths Of Desire (Mass Market Paperback)

Naomi Chambers has always had a crush on her best friend's brother, Joshua. She always felt he thought of her as a little girl, so she never revealed her feelings to him or her best friend, Patrice. When she relocates back home to New York from DC, Patrice offers her Joshua's apartment to stay in while she gets on her feet. Naomi accepts the invitation because she thinks Joshua is aware of the setup and since he is away on business for an extended period of time. Naomi is in for the shock of her life when Joshua comes home unexpectedly and finds her in his bathtub. He has no idea what she is doing at his home and Naomi is not only embarrassed at being caught in such a vulnerable state, but also enraged that Patrice set her up. Joshua being the man he is, agrees to allow Naomi to stay with him as a roommate until she finds a place of her own. The arrangement works out for a short period of time before the feelings they both have for one another begin to surface.

DEPTHS OF DESIRE is a fast-paced, enlightening read that deals with feelings past, present and future. The characters were relatable and the story was believable. Shaw did a great job with the writing and had me reminiscing about childhood crushes I may have had. This was my first Sophia Shaw read, but it won't be my last.

Naomi Chambers has it all: beauty, brains, and the job of a lifetime in her hometown of New York City. She is eager to return home and when her best friend Pat asks her to house-sit for her brother Joshua while, he's away on business, she jumps at the chance. What Pat doesn't know is that Naomi has had an crush on Josuha on years and while complications kept them apart, she still has strong feeling for him. Imagine her shock and surprise when Joshua arrives home unexpectedly after his job has been cut short. Joshua is now ready to settle down and upon his return, reconnects with his ex Jacqueline. But after spending time with Naomi, he realizes his heart belongs to her and breaks it off with Jacqueline but she refuses to let go. Soon, Joshua and Naomi, who despite their best efforts to ignore their attraction to each other, give in to their feelings and embark on a relationship. Of course, problems begin to arise as someone has it in for Naomi and she soon finds herself in danger and in a life or death situation that builds to a shocking and unexpected climax. Depths of Desire is the perfect blend of romance, suspense,and drama. I give this book 4 stars. Reviewed by Shay C of PeoplewholoveGoodBooks

This review is from: Depths Of Desire (Mass Market Paperback)

In The Depths of Desire, Naomi Chambers has had a crush on her best friend's brother, Joshua, since she was a teenager when she felt that he thought of her as a little girl. Consequently, she never revealed her feelings to her best friend, Patrice, or Joshua. Now that Naomi is all grown up, she has a successful life: beauty, brains and the job of a lifetime in New York City. She is eager to return to her hometown and when her best friend asks her to housesit for Joshua, while he's out of the country on business. She jumps at the chance to save money and get a glimpse of Joshua's life without his knowing. While complications have kept them apart for years, Naomi still has strong feelings for Joshua. Imagine her shock when he arrives home after his job has been cut short and they unexpectedly become roommates. Joshua and Naomi find it hard to be roommates and ignore their feelings for each other. Joshua wants to settle down and begin a more mature life, but...it doesn't include his ex-fiancé Jacqueline--and she is livid. When he and Naomi finally get serious about each other, problems begin to arise. Naomi's life is threatened, and she can't figure out if Jacqueline is really behind it all. Sophia Shaw creates a suspenseful romance story that keeps the reader on edge!
