In Lau’s (
Donut Fall in Love) fourth “Cider Bar Sisters” story, Sierra Wu has been dating billionaire Colton Sanders for over a year, and she feels like things are going well…but one night, when they’re out to dinner together, they run into Colton’s former lawyer, Jake Tong. Jake immediately cautions Sierra that Colton isn’t what he seems, romantically or professionally. She’s initially skeptical, but Jake is persistent and his warnings do pan out. Once she’s decided to end things with Colton, Sierra knows Jake will be good for a quick rebound. Will they be able to turn that rebound into more? Well-developed dynamics among Sierra’s and Jake’s families and friends bring depth and reflection. The romantic plot is fueled by Jake’s immediate conviction that Sierra is the woman he will marry, and his pursuit includes both intentional and coincidental run-ins to plead his case at restaurants, events, and her workplace. Readers do know that Sierra is intrigued, and she’s the one to initiate a relationship with Jake after Colton has cheated.
VERDICT A strong choice for readers who are skeptical about the ethics and logistics of dating a billionaire, but still interested in assertive heroes who get what they want.
