Teasing Destiny
Teasing Destiny is the first book in the Wishing Well, Texas series. The book stars Destiny Rose Porter and Jefferson James Griggs. Destiny always had a crush on JJ, and one night, years ago, she finally gave to her desires. While this remains the best night of her life, it also caused her first break. Four years later, Destiny has healed, and she is more careful with her heart. JJ knew that he couldn’t complete whatever he started on that night. How could he even consider having a relationship with a girl six years her junior? While he promised to be back, JJ left Destiny with a shattered heart, and, sadly, he did not do anything to help the situation.
Despite her misfortunes with love, Destiny was determined to see her dream come true. The ambitious girl knows that she will set up her bakery and settle down with a good man. Life is also great thanks to her friends Cara and Harmony. Everything is going great until JJ comes home to Wishing Well to heal from a baseball injury. JJ is Harmony’s elder brother, so the two will inevitably meet. While Destiny is sure that she still has feelings for JJ, she plans to keep away from him or at least give him trouble if he tries to start something with her. This is one promise Destiny will not be able to keep as she is powerless to fight JJ’s charm.
As memories of their night of passion come flooding, Destiny and JJ will find themselves fighting deep feelings again. JJ is determined to win her back, retire from baseball, and start a life with the woman he loves. However, he is not much of a communicator, and this brings a lot of friction between him and Destiny. In the end, his intentions come clear, and the two lovebirds make the best of their deep connection. Aside from the main characters, you will get to meet Destiny’s grandma, who is such a delight, her mum, who is a master in patience, and the rest of JJ’s family.
Teasing Destiny is a story of first romances, second chances, and family. Destiny and JJ go through a rough patch, but it is sweet that they figure out everything in the end. JJ’s inability to communicate his feelings will make you feel like shaking him to reality, but he is lucky to find a way out. Melanie Shawn’s writing style turns this into an exciting story, and it is great that everything flows perfectly. The book doesn’t end with a cliffhanger, and in the author’s style, the ending brings nothing but good news for the lovebirds.
