I Can Make You Love Me

by Karen White-Owens

Book Overview

For Wynn Evans, her first marriage proposal was little more than a childhood crush. 25 years later, Adam Carlyle has grown up to be handsome, smart and successful.

But as she's about to discover, Adam is a man who won't take no for an answer.

Customer Reviews

Enjoyable & Engaging...

A pleasant mix of a SPICY May/December romance, with plenty drama and a bit of suspense...the issues between Adam and Wynn are quite BELIEVABLE...it's also nice to catch up with Brennan and Krista Thomas from her previous novel The Way You Aren't (which I thought was an okay read)...this is an ENJOYABLE and ENGAGING read.

Age? Just a Number

When Wynn Evans was babysitting Adam Carlyle, never would she have guessed that he would turn into the man she would fall for. Even if he did tell her he was going to marry her when he got older. Although, thirteen years her junior, Adam showed more maturity than Wynn when it came to their relationship. Wynn spent most of her time worrying about their age difference especially when her ex refers to him as "that boy". Adam wants to marry Wynn and help raise her two sons, but she fears what his friends and family will say. When Adam steps in to help her boys out of a bad situation, Wynn needs no more convincing that Adam is the man. An enjoyable read even if the 13 year age difference was hard for me to grasp since Adam seemed to come off much older.

"Cougar" Story - Tastefully Done!

This story has an old theme - older woman with younger man but I love this story because of the modern issues Ms. White-Owens has added as well as the level of maturity she brings to the story. The beginning and ending are also so very charming and flows well. I enjoyed this story because of the believeable and realsitc characters. Hot passion and realism makes this story very good!

Good Story

Wynn Evans runs into to Adam Carlyle while having lunch. Adam recognizes her immediately, but for Wynn it takes a little longer. She never would have imagined that the cute little five year old boy she use to babysit is this extremely handsome man standing in front of her. Adam is immediately attracted to Wynn and decides right then and there that he wants to get to know her better. Wynn can't wrap her mind around the idea that a young man as handsome and successful as Adam would want to pursue a serious relationship with her. She's a 43 years old divorcee with two young sons to raise and Adam is 13 years her junior. Despite all her misgivings, she can't resist the feeling he provokes in her and she agrees to see him. Wynn thinks they are having a fun affair that will eventually end, but Adam has something more permanent in store for them. Wynn's fears get the best of her when Adam proposes marriage and Adam's feeling are hurt. Just when Wynn and Adam agree that they love each other and want to make their relationship work, Wynn's ex-husband Jim does the unthinkable. Adam steps up and proves he is all the man Wynn will ever need. Although I've never been attracted to younger men, I can see why Wynn fell so hard for Adam. This was a nice read. I don't think its a must read, but you won't be disappointed either.
