If I Only Knew (Second Time Around #4)

After reading Not Until You, I was pretty sure Milo couldnt be redeemed. He seemed to be so completely obsessed with himself and his own happiness, with little to no regard to anyone else. After what Danielle had gone through, I couldnt begin to see how he could be a good match for her. Corinne completely redeemed Milo in If I Only Knew, more than I thought possible. Milo and his straightforward personality were exactly what Danielle needed at a point in her life when she felt like nothing would ever be okay again. If I Only Knew was a witty, emotional office romance, with a dash of enemies-to-lovers thrown in.

I loved that Danielle refused to back down to Milo from the first moment they met. It set a precedent I was impressed by, Danielle was no shrinking violet, and Im not sure she would have had the appeal to Milo or me if she didnt display that spine of steel when confronted. Danni had more than her share of struggles to face, and thats definitely where her strength came from, but she also needed someone solid and more removed from the situation than her friends were to support her. Milo fit that role excellently. I loved how effortlessly they fell into a relationship neither of them were expecting.

Milo surprised me at every turn. From the reasons hed always acted the way he did, to his unwavering devotion to Danielle and her kids, to his acceptance of taking on any responsibility thrown his way, he was incredible. He had grown so much from his first appearance in Not Until You and through If I Only Knew, his arc was phenomenal and made this story outstanding in a way I hadnt anticipated. Coupling his growth arc with Danielles (and Avas, if Im being completely honest) healing arc, I couldnt have asked for a more satisfying way to conclude this series.

If I Only Knew is the final book in an unnamed series of standalones by Corinne Michaels. The series is about a tribe of four women who are closer and more important to one another than some families. Each book is about a different woman and can definitely be read without reading any of the others. I dont think its possible to read one without wanting to read the others, though, because each of the women is so phenomenal. If I Only Knew is written in dual first-person perspective, narrated by Danielle and Milo.

This 5 star read will claim a permanent piece of your heart.
Milo is the book boyfriend that will keep you turning the pages and panting for more!

All the sighs! This book was everything that a romance book should be. It was a wonderful escape from everyday life and problems. The characters, plot, build up and flow were spot on! I felt for the characters….ALL.THE.FEELS!!! The story didnt go heavy on heat, heartbreak, angst or romance. It sprinkled different elements throughout the story to keep you hooked to the book. I can always rely on Author Corinne Michaels to take me to my happy place…immersed in a book that becomes my favorite escape from lifes woes. I love being swept away by her stories.

Tragedy turned to triumph. Danielle and Peters life together ends in tragedy. She is forced to pick up the pieces and learn how raising her children on her own is now her new normal. With her squad of friends she is never truly alone. No one in this tribe walks alone. They are a fierce, loving and protective friend group.

Working at Dovetail Enterprises, in walks Milo, quite literally (hot British accent and all). He isnt what he seems or what she expected and neither is she to him. My heart smiled along with my face. l love them together and he is the epitome of perfect book boyfriend.

This is the fourth book in a standalone series. None of the books are to be missed! If you are looking for the perfect book to immerse yourself in, fall in love with and live in your heart, then this is the book for you to read next.

I want to be someone worthy of her. Someone she can rely on and its driving me mad.

After the sudden and devastating loss of her husband, Danielle is forced back into the work force. She’s now a single mom of two, and reeling with the change in responsibilities. Her best friends husband offered her a job but now she’s competing with his brother for the position.

Milo Huxley is an eternal bachelor. Always striving to prove himself to his family, he’s found himself living place to place, not taking life too seriously. He finds Danielle and knows that there’s no one else like her.

This book is a true page turner. With humor and heart on every page, you can’t help but feel for Danielle and fall for Milo. I swear, Corinne Michaels writes heroes and heroines you cant help but root for and fall in love with. Each book is better than the last, and the friendship thats written is only something you can hope for. Believe the hype, yall. If I Only Knew blew me away and left me wanting to move to England.

When unexpectedly, English Milo Huxley is commanded by his CEO brother to become assistant to American Danielle Louise Bergen sparks are expected to fly. Milo is wealthy, arrogant, irresponsible handsome, sexy and use to doing whatever he likes. He’s come to America to get his job back. He objects to her being his boss. But why?

Danielle is now a widow and was made Vice President of Dovetail Enterprises because of the quality of her work. But she must work, so she can support and look after her two children after her husband was murdered at work. She has close friends, yet she feels lonely.

As an assistant Milo is actually more experienced than Danielle in the work they are doing. And instead of letting her fail, he has purposely helped her out of some sticky situations. He has never looked for love or sort meaningful intimacy with any woman but the longer he works for Danielle, the more smitten he becomes. He has fallen for her.

When Danielle has to go to the court trial for her dead husband, Milo is there for her. And when Milo has to go back to London to look after his sick mother and be the Vice-president there, crucial decisions have to made. Will Danielle and Milo’s new relationship flounder. Who will move country? Read and find out.

I’m never the most eloquent reviewer. The right words never seem to flow from my brain to my fingers.

If I was face to face with you I would be gushing and practically shoving Amazon under your nose to one-click this book right now.

Milo has stolen my heart. And I willingly gave it to him.

Danielle has been through more than most experience in their lifetime and Milo’s surprise visit, with his attempted takeover of her job, and her husband’s murderer’s trial all at the same time, it pushed her over the edge.

And who was there to catch her as she fell?

Yep. Milo.

*sigh*

Milo.

Honestly. He’s a PITA. But he gets knocked on his own butt before long.

Told you I wasn’t good with words.

Just AAAHHHHH BUY THIS BOOK! Fall in lust and love and swoon along with me. You won’t regret it.

AND, get the audio too. I mean who doesn’t love to HEAR a British accent too?!
