After one of her two best friends finds love with the man of her dreams, Sapphire Rhodes realizes just how lonely she is. For months on end she has been secretly admiring the mailman who daily stops by her dental office, but she has never found the nerve to approach him due to her very shy nature. That is until she finds herself sharing a cottage with him days leading up New Year’s Eve. Will Sapphire find the courage to follow her heart’s desire?

Brian Terry wants what his best friend has – to own his own business and to have a very special woman in his life. He is tired of playing late nights with the club scene and working a job that is not fulfilling his potential. At the suggestion of his friend, Brian heads to a cabin to get his thoughts together concerning his future. Brian gains more than he bargains for when, upon arrival, he encounters Sapphire Rhodes.

Following a catastrophic introduction, Brian and Sapphire discover that they have a lot in common and a relationship begins to develop. However, Brian cannot help but feel that Sapphire is out of his league because she is an established doctor while he is undecided about his career path. Will this couple find a happily-ever-after?

I am excited to return to Marie Rochelle’s second installment in her Hunks series. Opposites Attract is just as good as its predecessor. It’s great to see the progress of the two main characters I met in the first novel all while watching the courtship of a new exiting couple. Brian and Sapphire are totally opposites in every way. Where Sapphire has her life planned out to a “T”; Brian is at a crossroad on what he wants out of life and where she is coy; he is very forthright; nevertheless, together, they make a vibrant couple. The sexual tension between them is passionately hot and unavoidable. No matter how hard they try, their desire refuses to be denied. Whew! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed Opposites Attract and I can’t want to dive into the next installment.
