Running from an abusive relationship, Sonja Milton finds a job as an assistant to best-selling author, Trent Logan. A delay in construction has her temporarily living with him. While attracted to Trent’s good looks, it’s his gentle and giving manner that truly captures her attention. But her past is not easily forgotten. Even with Trent’s slow, sensual seduction, is she ready to begin a new relationship?

Trent’s new assistant is a surprise. The smart, sexy woman so effortlessly fits into his life, he wonders what he did before she was hired. But he wants more than an assistant. Can he convince her that they’re perfect for each other regardless of the differences in their pasts and backgrounds?

The Promise of Forever is a story that warms your heart. Sonja’s past is painful and even a bit frightening, yet she’s strong and won’t allow it to destroy her future. Although the timing of their encounter isn’t perfect for Sonja, she can’t resist Trent for long. He’s the man she’s always hoped for and while a little wary, she soon realizes she deserves happiness. I enjoyed the growth of these characters and while I wish Trent’s character had been developed more, overall I enjoyed their relationship and the growth of their love.
