ABOUT THE BOOK

Bianca
Handsome husband—check.
Beautiful house—check.
Wonderful life…I could never put a check next to this.
Through it all, I longed for a different life. With a man I had called my best friend. A man who is not my husband.
When the unspeakable happens and I’m left alone, its Mick who is there to pick me up.

Mick
Not everything is meant to be.
Watching the woman who owned my heart start a life with someone else – broke me to the core.
But time goes on and I try too.
Until one phone call changes both our lives.
She could have been taken from me forever. Instead, a tragic accident takes away the only man I thought ever made her happy.
When she starts over again, in my city, in my home; sharing slivers of her story with me it’s then that I learn not everything is as it appears.
None of this matters though, when I’ve been given a second chance to prove we’re meant to be.

After all, 425 Madison is the perfect place to fall in love.

MY REVIEW

After finishing my second Leigh Lennon romance novel I am hooked on her broken and brave heroines and her sexy and honorable heroes.

Bianca and Mick are childhood friends who are in love with each other. Too bad they’re the only ones who don’t know it.

I hadn’t been ready to admit that a future with Bianca will never be written for us in the stars, not at first. After watching B-Rod happy on her wedding day, I finally had to admit I wasn’t the best man for her. And that f***** Trent makes her so happy—even their physical affection is too sickening to watch.

Mick works on Wall Street and lives well in his nice apartment at 425 Madison. He’s got is all, but the woman he loves. She is recently married to a man he can’t stand, but as long as she is happy… When she is an accident that kills her husband, Mick is there for her no matter what it takes so he moves her into his apartment. But why isn’t she grieving for her deceased husband and what is she hiding?

Mick has been in my life since—forever. I can’t remember a time his tall and sexy body has not been a part of my world. And, I chose wrong.

Bianca has been hopelessly in love with Mick for years and when he didn’t stop her from marrying Trent, she tried to make it work. But her dark secrets about her marriage are making her sick and she must tell Mick in order to move on. She needs his positive energy and the vitality he always brings to her life but he loves her as a little sister and not as a grown woman.

Yet another great romance at 425 Madison has come to pass. Though these books can be read as standalones, it is fun to see couples from previous books and how they interact with the new characters.  My favorite character in this book is the funny and wise Erin, Mick’s sister. She doesn’t have a big role in this book, but I’m hoping she will have her own story told soon.

If you like friends-to-lovers romances and strong characters with real problems such as loss, betrayal, and a love that lasts forever, give this one a try.

Thank you to Ms. Lennon for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review.
