Catherine's long-lost love is found.
Catherine Barrington is a rich girl. Chris Cartwright is a poor boy.

On the trading floor he became the man he knew he could be. Now, it’s time to return.
Rich girl.
Poor boy.
She didn’t care about his money, but he didn’t believe her. Soon after he left, all the money was gone.
Her life is hell.
Now he’s back, and he’s different. Pristine. Gorgeous. Rich.
Rich boy.
Poor girl.
Money was never the barrier, until now.

About the Author
CD Reiss is a New York Times bestseller. She still has to chop wood and carry water, which was buried in the fine print. Her lawyer is working it out with God but in the meantime, if you call and she doesn't pick up she's at the well hauling buckets.
Born in New York City, she moved to Hollywood, California to get her master's degree in screenwriting from USC. In case you want to know, that went nowhere but it did give her a big enough ego to write novels.
She's frequently referred to as the Shakespeare of Smut which is flattering but hasn't ever gotten her out of chopping that cord of wood.
If you meet her in person, you should call her Christine.

What just happened ? The book was so short ? WTH christine?!
I can't stop reading A Reiss book, the sheer joy of my eyes going over the words, my heart conforming to the bumps and dips of emotions..gaahh!! I want this story to go on forever !!!!!
This story is about a society divided by a fence that runs right through these young hearts . Catherine Barrington is practically Royalty and Christopher Carmichael a minion like boy who mows lawns and does end jobs.
The instant their eyes meet, it's like a force field forms around them, it's palpable energy too magnetic to keep away from
It felt as though two planets that had been on separate trajectories for light years had finally collided and melded.
Catharine is a victim of "Older Child Syndrome", in my opinion, ones who go from childhood to straight adulthood with no fun times in between. They're burdened with added responsibilities of younger siblings, split parent tensions and taking care of the house, in this case the town. It's a boulder of onus around the neck of Rin, pulling her down. So she puts her feelings & happiness on the back burner and dives headlong into Salvage & rescue mission for her town, her people .her day is full, but her nights are her own time to cry. It's so sad that tears have to flow before dreams can take their place in her eyes.
I was a grown Woman
I don't know what Christine's intent or sounding board was for this book, because I haven't read a tear-jerker from her before, but my tears couldn't stop running. I'm still choked up thinking about the story I finished last night!!
So, Catherine sells her heart to her parents and nails the doors to her heart shut tight.
I didn’t apologize to the Chris of today or even five years before, but to the sixteen-year-old boy who’d loved me. I’d let him go. I hadn’t chased him. Hadn’t fought for him. Hadn’t looked for him or asked his mother what happened to him. And now I was releasing him with regret. But I was releasing him.
(Omg I'm tearing up again)ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
It's a second chance romance with enough angst to eclipse the earth. It's Bröntésque in its appeal and feel, a veritable cauldron of boiling, hissing emotions singeing your skin. You'll scarred for days after, that I can assure you.
I've always looked forward to a reiss book and never been disappointed. A writer who can create Joanthan Drazen/Monica can create Chris/Catharine, with same ethos and sincerity is a testament to her range and vision of the craft. The Man:Woman in her stories are treated with rawest and most basic form of passion. It's a one to one connection. The scene where Chris tries to settle the conflict in Catharine' s mind is so powerful. It's like watching the birth of Adam & Eve . He redefines their roles as Man & a Woman by stripping it down to the basics.
“This is me with nothing. I came in this way, and I’ll go out this way. This body? It has needs. I need food, water, and sleep, okay? That’s how it stays alive. I have a brain. It comes with the package. It needs to work and to figure things out. If I’m not doing that, I’m dead, because it’s here, in the skin. And I have a heart. When I’m naked and all the other shit is gone, it’s part of me.
It needs you.
You.”
This scene itself commands standing ovation. I reread this 3 times...just so I could memorize that I'm reading something profound, something life changing !
I could babble and babble, but I have to stop. I loved the book, which you can deduce by my ramblings. My only peeve, the end came like suddenly... It's like you opened the door to a room and find yourself on the street, no way of going back in!!. Huh! . It's over!!
Secondly Chris's worklife was a bit covert, I'd have liked to see his assurances backed with concrete explanations. The end tied up hastily. And it is a novella length 🤔
But Hey! A Reiss book is a bible for emotions at the end of the day. Not Even The Flying Monkeys could keep me away from devouring, lapping, savouring, soaking EVERY WORD written by her . It's eternal love connection . My heart ❤ her words !
