Synopsis:
"Meet....
.....Working single mother Isabel Chambers. She's not a size 12 or as you've probably guessed, a virgin either. She's lived her life, maybe not to the fullest, but now feels it is her time to re-discover herself.
.....Marc Sanders an attractive, successful Harvard Professor of Medicine visiting Cambridge. He has a secret past that has been well hidden until now.
An Acute Attraction is a heart warming, exciting and compelling story of love and romance, full of seductive, sensual and tantalising emotions and images, sexual exploration and passion.
Isabel Chambers is an ordinary, working, single mother of two, who needs some “me” time, so, kids sorted, she books herself into a hotel for a week of rest and relaxation.
Marc Sanders is an American professor at Harvard University and is in England to present research results to Cambridge University.
Two people, out for adventure and excitement, meet and begin a journey of fun, thrills, lust and desire. But, is Mark all he seems to be? What is he hiding?"
My review:
This is Amandas debut novel and I can honestly say I would have never had believed it. I loved Her writing and I absolutely loved this book, this is one fantastic heartwarming story of romance and Love with a twist of mystery too that takes you on a journey of emotions and feelings.
39 year old Isabel Chambers is a fantastic character I really did like her she has the curves and the imperfections and has a history which you pick up parts of this throughout the book.
Isabel is a single mum of two boys her eldest is old enough to stop at home on his own her youngest is on holidays with his grandparents so Isabel takes this perfect opportunity (encouraged by her best friend Jackie) to make the most of her child free week and spend a week away in Cambridge.
Isabel books herself a nice hotel and is enjoying relaxing, it is on the first night she spots the Gorgeous Marc Sanders whilst participating in her forth favourite hobby people watching!! The first time Isabel meets Marc, I was like Hellooooo Mr Sanders!!!!
I don't want to say any more as I don't want to spoil anything for anyone but I can't recommend this book enough. There is a cliffhanger ending I know but honestly I can't wait for more on Marc and Isabel's story.

Marc is a gorgeous American professor of medicine from Harvard, He is vising Cambridge to present some medical research. He may look perfect on the outside but Marc has a past, he has secrets he will do anything to keep to protect his family.Standing at least 6ft tall, he pushes his glasses back up the bridge of his nose as he leans over the desk. Although his dark brown hair isn't especially long , the front strands flop deliciously over his face, I envisage running my fingers through it as he looks longingly into my olive green eyes, What tops off his look though is how damn hot he looks in the blue 3-piece suite he's wearing.
Isobel has her own past too which she is trying to forget, but we begin to understand why and what she is trying to forget as the story goes on.
I loved how Isabel's humor comes through when she talks direct to you the reader
'I apologise, if you hadn't grasped by now, my thought just wonder. They go off on a totally different tangent to everything else and I do often wonder if they will drop off the ends of the earth at some pont. If there were ends of course, considering the earth is round; for goodness sake stop it Chambers, concentrate'
These two lovely characters begin to feel more for each other as the week goes on
"What am I going to do when this week is over Isabel? How am I going to let you go when I feel the emotions I do for you?"
*sigh* Being a lover of romance books can you see why I loved this book?
I don't want to say any more as I don't want to spoil anything for anyone but I can't recommend this book enough. There is a cliffhanger ending I know but honestly I can't wait for more on Marc and Isabel's story.
