The Slider
by A.M. Williams
Zoe has had a rough few years and she's doing her best to raise her nephew & figure out what she wants to do with her life. Overall, she's doing quite well. Then a night out has her meeting Jacob in a bar and even though nothing comes of it then fate will keep bringing them together.
Jacob is fresh off a difficult divorce and not looking for anything during a night out with friends. He saves Zoe from a troublesome drunk because it is the right thing to do, not knowing that it will mean he won't be able to forget her. Luckily he runs into her again a few months later ... only to stick his foot in his mouth. It's time to salvage his reputation, prove that he's a better man than she thinks, and maybe discover a new love.
I will say there are a few issues. The sex scenes weren't as smooth as they could have been and they felt a little awkward compared to the way the rest of the book was written. There are also quite a few times when things don't match - people who have met before don't react like it or conversations are held but a few pages later it's like it never happened. The copy I read was due for at least one more edit and I'm hoping they caught some of these. But I would definitely say that the love story is more than worth it even if these things aren't fixed.
The romance between Jacob and Zoe is sweet and I enjoyed watching them move past some early stumbles, get to know each other, and fall in love. Jacob is awesome with both Zoe and her nephew Jacob. Together they grow into a wonderful, supportive family unit.
