The Minute I Saw You

Product Information

Sonny'nin iki tane kızı var ve bunu yakın zamanda öğrenmiş, ki kendisi hiçbir zaman uzun ilişki yaşamış biri değilmiş. Çocukken ablasının erkek arkadaşı ona "onu ablasından daha çok sevdiğini" söylermiş, onunla çok zaman geçirirmiş ve sonra da birbirini seven insanların neler yaptığını göstermiş.. Sonny, ablası bu çocuktan ayrıldıktan sonra okulda cinsel eğitim almış ve yaşadığı olayın ciddiyetinin farkına varmış. Pedofili rezaleti bir hayatı daha mahvetmiş anlayacağınız. Öyle işte, Sonny bunu unutamamış, uzun ilişki yaşayamamış. I really liked Hannah and endeared to her immediately. Sonny not as much but as a rare reader of romance, even I have to say the chemistry between them was electrifying and very sensuous and flirtatious to read.

Book Review: The Minute I Saw You by Paige Toon - Culturefly

With majority of the action set in a truly delightful British locale, reminding me of a place I often miss living in Australia, The Minute I Saw You proved to be an engaging read, complete with a satisfying end. I cheered these characters on in their emotionally tough search for personal acceptance, true love, happiness, fulfillment and recovery. The Minute I Saw You is a must read for contemporary fiction and romance readers. Hilarious, compelling, sexy and warm, with characters so vivid you actually miss them when it's over... Highly recommended’ LUCY VINE, author of Hot Mess Chapter 3 If I thought I was going to be able to stop thinking about him, I was wrong. As April melded pleasantly into May, Sonny continued to be a distraction. And not a pleasant distraction, not in the way it was at first. That look in his eyes was so stark, so bleak. He seemed broken. I couldn’t forget it. I confided in Umeko that he seemed upset when he came in to collect his glasses. She replied that she didn’t know his father well enough to call him about personal issues, but promised to ask after Sonny the next time she spoke to his dad about something accounts related. To my knowledge, that hasn’t yet happened. * One late afternoon in mid-May when I’m out at the front dead-heading the roses, I hear the side door to Evelyn’s clinic open. I can’t decipher specific words, but I can hear Evelyn’s serene, musical voice and the low, deep tone of a man’s reply. A minute later, this same man, I’m presuming, appears from the side of the building, wheeling his bicycle down the gravel driveway towards the road. I straighten up with a start. It’s Sonny. My sudden movement catches his eye and he glances my way, giving me a cursory nod. Then he does a double take, puzzlement creasing his brow. ‘Sonny,’ I say. ‘Oh, hi,’ he replies vacantly, coming to a slow stop. ‘Hannah. I work with Umeko,’ I remind him awkwardly as his gaze sweeps over my appearance. ‘I didn’t recognise you,’ he admits. It’s a fair comment. My casual clothes couldn’t be more different from the strait-laced uniform I’m required to wear for work.I bonded with Hannah right away, she seems like such an easy going type of person and someone that it would be easy to chat to and get along with and so I was invested in her right from the start. She has had a tough start in life and her secret heartbreak is always there with her affecting her everyday thoughts and actions. Sonny also wears his heartbreak right out there. He is a complex fellow and I have to admit I was somewhat wary of him to begin with but he is a total cinnamon roll of a man, he has a bit of a tough exterior but is soft and lovely in the muddle. He has a whole host of skeletons in his closet and all of those contribute to his complex past and his own secret heartbreak. With even a short fling now off the cards, Hannah and Sonny settle for being friends. But as summer hots up and their chemistry shows no signs of cooling, they start to question their reasons for shutting each other out.

The Minute I Saw You (Audio Download): Paige Toon, Heather

Paige Toon’s voice is electric, passionate and fresh. I was hooked immediately and really liked how the storyline developed. The book is also very sexy and exciting. Also, the secondary characters added a ton of depth to the story, the writing transported me right to the Cambridge suburbs, and I loved Hannah's profession as an optician/ all that I learned within this field. This story is beautiful in so many ways, it’s a heartfelt romance with lots of sweet compelling moments which really tugged upon my heartstrings. It also is about two people struggling to come to terms with very significant moments in their lives, one loss and another overcoming from abuse. It made for a very powerful read, and I loved Sonny and Hannah together. To me two broken halves definitely healed each other to make them whole again.Some people believe that it’s possible to fall in love simply by gazing into another person’s eyes but Hannah, who spends her working life staring into the eyes of strangers, has never felt anything out of the ordinary for any of her clients. Then she meets Sonny and a spark ignites between.
