Noah By: Elizabeth Reyes


(N) This is the first book in the 5th Street Book series and was yet another book that I got for free on Amazon and by now I've noticed a pattern with free books from Amazon. I either hate the book and don't even try to finish it or I love the book and then have to contemplate on if I should get the next book in the series and continue on from there. In the case of this book Noah it was the latter, although there were times when I skimmed through a few pages for the most part I read the whole thing and enjoyed it.
       Veronica Cruz, a.k.a Roni to all her friends has been through more than her fair share of sorrows. Roni's been away from the world for two years taking care of her dying mother she now's unemployed single, after he boyfriend left her not being able to deal with all that's going on in her life,  overweight, and feeling older than her twenty-eight years. When her best friend Nellie get two tickets for a weeks worth of free training she coaxes Roni to come along with her to get her out of her depression and make Roni start feeling better about herself. There she meets Noah her assigned trainer and someone who supports and motivates Roni to become better. Noah is everything Roni as every wanted in a guy he's respectful, good looking, loyal, and close to his friends and extended family. There is just one problem, Noah's eight years younger than Roni and the last thing she expected was that he would fall in love with her.
       Noah Quintanilla has his eye on a boxing title but due to an injury he's been out for a few months and he's finally getting the opportunity to train someone something he's been waiting for for a long time. The problem is his trainee is an out of shape woman with a free pass for a week. Noah's job is to get her to want to come back after her free week is up and then he can become a full-time trainer at the gym. Somewhere along the way Noah stumbles into one of the closest friendships that he's ever had and before he knows what to do he's fallen in love. But Roni wants nothing to do with having an intimate relationship with Noah not when the age difference between them is so big. But being friends with Roni means watching other guys put the move on her and not being able to speak up about it, something that is driving him crazy. Noah sets out to prove to Roni that age isn't anything but just a number and that he is who she should be with.
