Let Me Hold You by Alexandria HouseMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book is #2 of the McClain series. Leland and Kimberly meet when Leland McClain, a professional NBA player is volunteering at the community center where Kimberly Hampton is the Director. Kim has some series relationship issues from her past; a track record of abusive relationships, that not only affected her, but also her son Armand as well. Armand, which is also a professional NBA player has a problem with his mom getting involved with any man, because of the abuse she dealt with in her past. Armand feels he must protect her, but he takes it to the extreme. When Armand and Leland were on the same team, Armand cause all type of havoc with Leland when he caught him looking at his mom.
At first, Leland and Kimberly relationship starts off a bit slow, because of Kim’s fear and out of guilt from what her son had to endure, with consideration that he was the one that had to save her from the abuse. She felt that she owed it to herself and Armand not to get involved with anyone seriously. Kim had her son when she was fifteen years old, so with Leland being a few years younger than her and a few years older than her son, made it another excuse for not getting involved with Leland. However, after many intimate moments, Kim cannot resist Leland. The take back is that Kim has a problem telling her son she is in a committed relationship with Leland and when he does find out, he raises all kinds of hell, but Leland is not going to allow Armand to come in-between the love he has for Kim. I understood Armand being protective over his mother, but he was out of control. However, she had to let go of the guilt, put her foot down and take control of her life and happiness.
The chemistry between Kimberly and Leland was passionate, enduring and erotic. A lot was going on which kept me engaged in the story. I will say that Alexandria House did not disappoint. This book was good. I give it a 5 out of 5 stars rating. Excellent read.
