Theater manager Teddy Carbone’s life has gone pretty much according to script… until now.
To his surprise, Teddy finds himself co-owner of the Oasis Theater with Carter Monroe, a corporate shark who’s looking at him like he’s chum in the water. Being in charge of the theater is one thing, but having to deal with Carter and his demands is another. With Carter’s proposed plan to sell the Oasis looming, Teddy must convince Carter the theater is worth saving. When Teddy introduces the bright, bold world of the stage to Carter’s cold, all-business lifestyle, though, he soon comes to recognize that the Oasis might not be the only thing he has a chance to save.
REVIEW:
This one was so stinkin’ cute!!!! It starts off with a fairly sad premise so I thought it was going to go one way but early on you know it’s not going to be how you expect and I really liked that I was surprised.
Teddy Carbone’s life abruptly changed when his boss and friend died unexpectedly. Thinking he couldn’t feel anymore off kilter he learns he not only owns the theater he’s been managing but he shares it with his boss nephew. Knowing they need to meet and get on the same page he’s unprepared for Carter Monroe.
Carter is 150% all about making money. Business is all he knows so he doesn’t get working for passion and not just a bottom line. When he meets his new co-owner he surprised that Teddy is making him see things differently.
The attraction is immediate and volcano hot!!! I really enjoyed watching them develop. Teddy was absolutely adorable and real, loved this character and Carter was so incredibly endearing. Even though he’s this shark like business man you can really get a feel for how his attraction to Teddy is affecting him. I really enjoyed them as a couple.
This is my first book by this author and I have to say that I am a fan. I enjoyed the writing style and even though this is a pretty short story the character development was substantial. I really cared about these two men.
Shout out to the Rocky Horror Picture Show….totally tickled me….!
A great addition to the Heartsville series. Another must read…!!!
