This Montgomery Has a Head for Business.

Working for Zach Montgomery is challenging on many levels-coming from a wealthy and powerful family, he lives by his own rules and doesn’t answer to anyone. But Gabriella Martine has no intention of backing down. She’s used to handling stubborn men, and it doesn’t hurt that Zach is smart, charismatic…and gorgeous.

And a Heart for Adventure
Zach’s perfect world is turned upside down when a climbing accident leaves him broken, angry, and maddeningly dependent. In his slow quest for recovery, Gabriella is always there to help…but as Zach comes to see his beautiful assistant in a new light, he is forced to re-evaluate what it really means to be a man worthy of Gabriella’s love.

tina thoughts a review for youAre you looking for a sweet, classic contemporary romance? Why not take a chance on I’LL BE THERE, the sixth in Samantha Chase’s Montgomery Brothers Series. This book has the perfect formula for a contemporary love story that will make you want to cuddle up and fall in love. This is the first of the series I have read, so you can read it without the previous books in the story. This book has so much going on and it all revolves around Zach and Gabriella. We jump right into the story, after Zach has had a terrible accident that has left his body and spirit broken. It is obvious that he is a man of action and strength. In this book, he is struggling to find his balance and those around him are at a loss of what to do. Gabriella has been his assistant for years and after an awkward encounter years ago, their relationship has never been quite the same. The chemistry between these two is well balanced. You can tell from this story that there is something brewing between them and there is hesitancy and confusion over the moment when things shifted. When all the drama and frustration comes to a breaking point, these two have to decide what they want and how to achieve that.

I enjoyed seeing these two admit their feelings and see where the chips fall. They are undoubtedly compatible but they both carry baggage that has the capacity to ruin everything. There are moments of high stress and moments of peace. Their struggle to find their footing individually and as a couple is heartfelt and at times emotional. I loved watching these two allow what could be grow into something that makes perfect sense. This story has all the things you expect from a contemporary romance novel. We see incredible secondary characters, some who meddle and some who support, giving this book a supported main couple. These other people allow for a fun and family environment in the story. Zach and Gabriella are both well rounded characters that bring depth to the story. The romance is passionate and sweet, giving the reader a story to swoon over. The conflict is appropriate and the story flows well. I have not read any others in this series but seeing the secondary characters makes me want to read more about this family. I would love to see glimpses of Zach and Gabriella before the accident and to see the brothers and read their stories of true love.

excerpt alertReaching across the table, Zach took one of Gabriella’s hands in his and just marveled at how soft it was. He always wondered what her skin felt like and now that he knew, he wanted to feel more. “Don’t leave me. Please.”

Her blue eyes filled with tears and she used her free hand to quickly wipe them away before they fell and then studied their hands on the table. “Zach,” she said softly, “we’ve been over this.”

“I know, I know,” he replied just as softly. “I need another chance, Gabriella. I need a chance to make things right.” He looked up, his gaze meeting hers. “I need you.”

Deciding to be bold, he turned her hand over and twined their fingers together and gently squeezed. He was surprised she didn’t pull away and thought maybe—just maybe—they were making progress. “I know I can’t erase the things I’ve said and done, but if you’ll give me one more chance, Gabs, I promise not to screw up. If I do anything to upset you, you can walk away. Hell, you can slap me in the face, kick me in the shin or throw something heavy at me and I’ll take it. I just…I can’t do this without you.”

Her eyes never left their joined hands.

“I don’t want to do this without you,” he said quietly.

“I’m afraid to…believe you.” He barely heard her words, they were uttered so softly.

Everything inside of him clenched with pain. His always confident, ever-efficient assistant was now distrusting and uncertain—because of him. “I don’t know what to say to make you believe me. Tell me. Tell me what I need to do. Anything. Anything you need from me to gain your confidence, and I’ll do it.”

She looked up at him. “It’s not that easy. Every day I walked into the office, I gave you another chance. Every time you berated me or made me feel like I screwed up and I came back, I gave you another chance. From my standpoint, you’ve had two years’ worth of second chances. I think I’ve been more than generous.”

His other hand reached out to cup her hand in both of his. “I know you have and you have no idea how much I appreciated it.” She looked at him with disbelief. “It’s true! I know I never said it but every morning you were there, I was thankful. Every time you walked into my office, I was thankful. Please. I’m begging here, Gabs.”

ABOUT THE AUTHORNew York Times and USA Today Bestseller/contemporary romance writer Samantha Chase released her debut novel, Jordan’s Return, in November 2011. Although she waited until she was in her 40’s to publish for the first time, writing has been a lifelong passion. Her motivation to take that step was her students: teaching creative writing to elementary age students all the way up through high school and encouraging those students to follow their writing dreams gave Samantha the confidence to take that step as well.
When she’s not working on a new story, she spends her time reading contemporary romances, playing way too many games of Scrabble or Solitaire on Facebook and spending time with her husband of 25 years and their two sons in North Carolina.
