Synopsis 

Somehow, he knows my embarrassing secret and I’m pretty sure I was the target in some juvenile bet of his. I will not be caught in his web.

Zane Elkton is a hot A-list celebrity.
I’m a plain-Jane professional organizer who’s twelve years older than him.
We couldn’t be more different.

He’s everything you’d expect of a Hollywood movie star: devastatingly gorgeous, perfect body, wealthy, classy…and has skeletons in his closet. The very skeletons that have consumed most of the men in my life and I’m not willing to let myself get wrapped up in him, even if my ridiculous heart has other plans.


With access to any woman he could want, his relentless pursuit of me makes no sense.


Did I mention the man knows how to swoon and is unbelievably romantic? With money, access, and connections, he wants to help me check off items on my Life List. You know, the things – some that are completely unattainable – that you want to do while you’re still alive.


My attempts at keeping him at a distance are failing miserably because he’s sneaking into my heart. And his skills in the bedroom are exactly what you’d imagine — electrifying — which doesn’t help matters.


But when I find out he knows my secret and suspect I’ve been made a laughingstock in his bet, I leave as fast as I can…sending him into a downward spiral that has him fighting his inner demons.


Love is supposed to conquer all, isn’t it?
In our case, I’m not sure that’s possible.


Untouchable Zane is a standalone romance book. You can follow it with my Wounded Hearts series that starts with Someone Exactly Like Me.

(This book contains steamy scenes, alcoholism, mention of parental suicide, mention of body image sensitivity, and some explicit language. Suitable for 18+ only.)


Review


Zane has been dreaming about a beautiful redhead for half his life never expecting to see her till the day she walks into his life in the parking lot of his gym. Instantly he knows he needs to get to know Desiree whatever it takes he can't let her slip through his fingers. He sets her and her friend up with a pass at the gym so that he has a chance to see her again. What started out as a chance encounter blossoms into friendship. Desiree is older and doesn't think a relationship with Zane is a option he's untouchable as a celebrity. The more time she spends with him the harder it is to deny the connection. 

 Zane is amazing he's the opposite of everything I expected from a leading celebrity who is known for his beautiful body. He's is such a cinnamon roll boy next door guy who you just can't help falling for. He's relationship with his family is just so sweet and pure, I love his grandpa. Desiree is such a great character I really felt that I was able to connect with her because while she's had a tragic past she doesn't let it define her. I just truly think they are meant to be together and it was fate. 

I picked this one up a while back but it ended up lost on my kindle for a while but after having a lovely chat with the author I had to give it a chance and I'm so glad that I did. I can't believe I waited so long because I truly loved everything about the book. I finished in just two sessions because real life forced me to stop otherwise I would have devoured it in just one afternoon. 

This is my first book by the author but I'm hooked on her writing style it flows along so smoothly it's easy to get lost in the story and lose all track of time. I've always been a huge fan of romance that balance story and spicy so that it feels more authentic. Untouchable Zane is a beautiful romance that captures the heart as well as the imagination. I can't wait to explore her other stories I ready have the first in her series ready to go. I highly recommend if you are a fan of sweet romance.
