Renowned rail designer, Tykira Lowery, has not set foot in Seattle since she left home for college years ago - all due to her painful breakup with Quaysar Ramsey. Out of the blue, the Ramsey Group contacts her with a challenging job offer that she can't refuse. Completing this major, multi-dollar task would make her already successful business skyrocket to a whole new level. Not about to allow a grand opportunity to pass her by, Ty decides to return to Seattle with her business team. She vows to maintain tight control over her emotions and uphold a professional relationship with Quay, or better yet, steer clear of him as much as possible. But, Ty quickly finds out it is much easier said than done to stay out of Quay's arms.

Quaysar Ramsey has been in love with Ty for a very long time; but, he has always been determined to keep her at a distance. Dangerous threats have been made against all the woman in his past and he is not about to endanger Ty's life. For years, Quay was able to stay away from Ty; however, when she returns to Seattle at the request of his twin brother, Quest, Quay finds it difficult to deny his raging desire to claim Ty as his own. Will the hardship from their devastating breakup continue to be a major obstacle between them? And, more so, if by a miracle Quay and Ty are able to reunite as a couple, will the demon from Quay's past resurface and cause major havoc, possibly ending Ty's life?

AlTonya Washington is back again with her sequel novel in the Ramsey family saga. A Lover's Pretense was just as hot and intense as its prelude. All I can say is WOW! I loved A Lover's Pretense! It seems as if each new segment in the Ramsey family series just keeps getting better and more exciting. Ms. Washington has mastered the act of teasing and torturing the reader until you find yourself rapidly flipping page after page, eager to see what will happen next. Even though the main feature in the phenomenal A Lover's Pretense was Ty and Quay's love story; it also revealed the person behind the murder mystery that carried over from the first novel; touched on up on Mick and Quest's life after marriage; taunted about the future love interests of more Ramsey men and developed another secret that stemmed from the original anonymity. Whew! Readers, if you admire a cocky, dominate, suave, compassionate, sexy-as-hell type of man - then Quay is THE man. Ty had a lot on her plate in her dealings with Quay, yet, she handled herself and Quay with class and style. Although Ms. Washington did an excellent job of giving great background information, I would suggest reading A Lover's Dream before tackling A Lover's Pretense because of the continuation of the suspenseful murder mystery and, more importantly, to experience the satisfaction of Mick and Quest's union. A Lover's Pretense is positively a Joyfully Reviewed Recommended Read!

I'm not a fan of romance novels, but that all changed once I read "A Lover's Dream" and I love the sequel even more. I enjoyed Quay's story and I'm glad we got some closure about what happened in the first novel. I can't wait to read about the other Ramsey men in upcoming sequels.

I'm totally hooked on these Ramsey's. The stories just keep wetting better and better, and Quay and Ty did not disappoint. I love that the story is just not only about these two, but we get to keep up with the entire family. The mystery is finally solved which is shocking and unexpected, but what a great twist. Can't wait to read about the bleach sheep Fernando....should be a good read.

I enjoyed this story about Quaysar and Ty...I look forward to reading the others in the Ramseys series...This was a page turner...

I would have given 5 stars but didnt like being left hanging. When the brothers confronted Marcus, the mother felt faint and one of the brothers left the room quickly as if a lightbulb had gone off but the story never picked back up. Did I miss something?

I purchased this book thru my kindle thinking that due to the fact that it possessed numerous five star ratings It had to be a fantastic read... Wait for it........ Ok boy was I wrong this book did not live up to the ratings.. I was disappointed.

OK, you know if I love the dad and twin I just have to love Quaysar, that guy has some temper, don't mess with his Tykira. I said it once, twice and now again I love this series so much drama and these Ramseys know how to love. The sex is hot. Again you won't be disappointed. 5 stars people lol

Ordered this for my daughter, after she complained about the book not being available anywhere.
Timely delivery and in great condition.

OMG!! Can't say enough, won't say enough about this book and her entire Ramsey Series! What an awesome creative mind! Well Done Ms. Washington!!!!

That book was not all that in my opinion, the story kept on dragging and at one point i just wanted them to hook up and get it over with.
