To Trust

Great characters, great plot and a very sexy tale. Two characters who have sworn off love and relationships and think that they can have the smouldering looks and the sex and touching but nothing more. Fate throws them a few curve balls and they have to decide what they mean to each other. Morgan’s family is excellent, full of sarcasm, wit and care for the couple.

I think this new-to-me-author did an excellent job keeping me enthralled and immersed in this story. I enjoyed the maturity of the characters, the comical elements, the truly supportive circle of family and friends and how these two practical, resolved and determined characters find themselves caught in the power of love. Loved it from beginning to end!

Oh this one got me! I lovvvvved it! From the beginning to the end and please tell me there will be followups of the siblings!!! I want more of their stories… it cannot end here. Perfect amount of everything: spice, drama, laughter, pain, happiness. What a great book! I want to say so much more but don’t want to spoil any of the plot. Can’t wait to read other books by Rasha!

Quick Summary: A 0 to 100 love story that was practically perfect in every way

My Review: To Trust by Rasha Selim was a stellar romance. I absolutely loved it!!! This book deserves a standing ovation.

About the Couple: Morgan and Ann Marie were so similar. They each had a tough exterior. They only allowed a few people into their lives, and even then, it was at a controlled distance. Those closest to their hearts, however, were loved fiercely. From the beginning, it was evident that they were protecting their hearts from the other. Still, they were drawn together by powerful feelings. Their attraction was combustible. Their relationship was inevitable.

About the Family: The Andersons were wonderful. Their strong sense of family was so evident. I loved how they were present for every members challenges and triumphs. The fact that they rallied around Morgan and Ann Marie when they faced the unknown was beautiful.

About the Conflict: There were a lot of moving parts, in terms of conflict. Both main characters had their own individual conflict points. They struggled with their pasts. They struggled with themselves, in terms of wants. They also struggled with revealing who they really were. In addition to the aforementioned, they also experienced difficulty with the relationship they shared. What they said they wanted differed from what they were creating together.

About the Humor: Oh my word, this book was so funny. I was laughing the entire time (except at the more serious moments, of course). I, particularly, loved when Morgan, Ann Marie, Susan, and Pax got together. They were three hoots and a chuckle. Additionally, the T-shirts that Dustin wore were insane (especially the last one mentioned...lol).

About the Big Reveal: Yes! (Sniff, sniff)

My Final Say: This book was such a satisfying read. It was incredibly sweet, it was totally believable, and it was amazingly complete. It was a full circle forever love story.

* A Goodreads review has been posted.

Sexy, Sexy romance story, both Ann Marie and Morgan have trouble opening up their heart after tragic incidents that effected them when they were young. However, after there first introductions they couldn't keep their hands off each other or keep their hearts closed to each other and that alone just made me happy and made me blush. I love the support they had for each other and the support they received from both their friends and family. The support from the friends and family was not only kind and loving but they are funny, supportive and all deserve their own story. No matter what problem came up there was a brother, friend or parent right there with them to help them. It was just a lovely story that will make you happy and wish you were part of the family and story.

I want to thank The Wild Rose Press and NetGalley for a wonderful romantic story.

First of all, I should say that I got a copy of this from NetGalley.

🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶/5

First of all I instantly feel in love with Ann Marie. Her personality really made me like her I don’t know why but her putting up a front and showing she is an independent women that doesn’t need a man I understand but she also shows a side of her that accepts the help Morgan offers her and she starts to see the glimpse of what being loved feels like.

Morgan’s hard exterior is understandable but he push down his feelings for Ann Marie for way to long. I understand she did the same but he could have (what Caden likes to say) ‘dig deeper’.
Overall the chemistry between the go characters is phenomenal and the sexual tension is fucking jaw dropping.

The plot of the story drew me in and made this book and interesting and engaging read that will keep you entertained and a little bit surprised, not in a bad way.
