1/2
After years of struggling, Cynthia Blaine is finally getting recognition from Seattle galleries and buyers for her designer jewelry. Her life seems to be on an even keel. Her professional life, that is. Her personal life is less exciting than a cloistered nun’s. After a messy breakup with a man who decided he needed a woman who could help his career more than a mere artist could, she’s steered clear of anyone who could hurt her like that again.
Then Marius Hernandez comes into a gallery where she was working. He’s a successful coffee broker; he’s to-die-for handsome; he’s sexy and charming. And he’s very, very interested in her.
Marius woos her on a sailing trip through the beautiful San Juan Islands during which their romance lights up the summer nights. Soon after they return to Seattle, he leaves on a six-week business trip to Central America, vowing he’ll return to her. But just before he’s due back, Cynthia gets a shock. And when she goes to Portland to pour out her heart to her best friend, she has another shock. Marius is in Portland, not where he said he would be. And he’s with another woman.
It’ll take more than a good cup of coffee to get Cynthia and Marius to their happily-ever-after.

Review
****This book was part of a blog tour I received an ARC for my honest review****
Cynthia has already been in one bad relationship with a rich
playboy and she is not about to be played again, when she meets Marius she is
wants. The two of them go on a sailing trip and Cynthia starts thinking the two
of them might have a chance, when she sees him with another woman everything
changes and Marius has to work hard to convince Cynthia that she is really the
one he wants. This was a good quick read for me with lots of sexy scenes and
some serious romancing, but there were a few things that bugged me. Cynthia
while it was great that she was outspoken and didn't hide how she was feeling,
I think she overreacted to things a little too much. It would have been nice to
have a little more back story on how bad her old relationship really was because after
awhile her hang ups and insecurities started to get a little bit annoying.
Marius had the patients of a saint; he worked really hard to show Cynthia he
really cared about her. Overall Trusting Again is a fast hot read and definitely
something romance readers should check out.
