It seems to have more power over you than you do to fight it. Perseverance is uncomfortable, especially when you’ve given in to that temptation so many times before. It feels too hard spiritually, emotionally, and physically to keep waging war against our flesh.
There are many biblical ways to answer this question, but I want to focus on just one: we give in to temptation because we get tired of fighting the battle. I recommend this to those who like to read about romance, rich-ice-queen-single-mothers, struggling college students who attract everyone, childcare, private schools, estranged family, ski resorts, and video games.Why do we give in to temptation? This question often arises in the context of counseling for repetitive struggles such as pornography use, masturbation, substance abuse, and overeating. Overall, this was a fun story about two women that can’t find a way to deny their mutual attraction, and have an even harder time of denying their growing feelings for one another. I mean… I did read the title and see the cover, after all. There was quite a bit of steamy sex once things got going. Bryant mentioned in her acknowledgement that she was looking to write a flirty novel.
And what is more forbidden than wanting to gain intimate acquaintance of your much younger employee? There was a surprising amount of emotion. I liked how Cassie falls for Brooke’s son before she ever falls for Brooke. There was so much to like about this story, though. Having said all of that, the fact that it wasn’t made a big deal was a huge positive and made it so it didn’t bother me so much. Sure, it was mentioned and there were concerns in there, but nothing truly dramatic enough to make the gap a necessity. And in the grand scheme of things, I don’t think that it enhanced the story in any way as it wasn’t a huge conflict. I feel like it must be a lesbian romance mandate for publishing these days. This is an age gap romance, which I am honestly tired of reading. Brooke is somewhat of an ice queen but shows glimpses of a softer side when she interacts with her son.
Although she was raised with money and privileged, she wasn’t above going out and doing the work to achieve her personal goals.
She knew that she didn’t want to follow in her parent’s medical footsteps and decided to pave her own way despite having to give up their support. Cassie had a lot of chutzpah, likely inherited from her firecracker grandma. She is in need of a full time nanny for her son. Brooke runs her affluent family’s business while her CEO father makes deals hobnobbing on the green. In need of money to fund her graduate studies, she takes on work watching children. I was hooked from the start.Ĭassie decided to go against her parent’s wishes and drop out of medical school.
