First
up I need to say that I am not a fan of rockstar romance, it's just not my
thing. I actively avoid them except for a few exceptions. I also don't go out
of my way to read second chance romance. Add in an alcoholic and the unholy
trifecta is complete. So, I went into this initially not knowing who's book it
was. Once I knew it was Beaumont's I knew we were getting two of those three,
but I persevered.
Meeting
Hutton, and realising her history with Beaumont I was bummed. And I actually
struggled a little to read the book. But I'm no quitter so I fought through. I
liked Hutton. I didn't like Beaumont. He was a selfish acehole and I don't feel
like he ever really deserved Hutton. It was all circumstantial and all about
him and his needs. Which sucked because after the last two books and how
amazing those guys were, I wanted him to be the guy who walked through fire for
his second chance, and he just didn't.
But
thankfully we now have Louis who is awesome and Ford who I am already a little
in like with. So, I am going to grab them on KU and hope they wash the angry
I'm feeling from Beaumont out of me.
After
waiting forever to read convict I'm completely hooked on this series. Generally,
I steer away from dark or emotional books because I'm a bit of a wuss. I find
it really hard not to let it affect my mood and being a miserable bitch with a
house full of kids is impossible. But every now and then I can't get enough of
them because they keep me so engrossed in all the feels.
Being
a Hayley Faiman virgin going into that last book I have to say she's been added
to my TBR. And I had this on my kindle within minutes of putting down Convict.
But I needed a night to get my head out of their story and into this one. And I
picked this one up thinking it was Beaumont's story. Discovering it was Wyatt's
wasn't a disappointment and I was happy to see Exeter was his heroine.
Wyatt
was such a complete hero in the last book I just knew I was going to love him.
Especially after our introduction to Exeter and hearing very briefly what
skeletons were in her closet. I knew he was the right man for her, and I had to
know how they knew each other. I was a little disappointed with Wyatt's past.
Or maybe disappointed is the wrong word. I guess I expected more from him than
his history with Sammi.
But
this book was as well written as the last. And it could be read as a standalone
but the characters are awesome, and the first book was great and they are on KU
so you know, binge read. I don't know who's story we are getting next but I'm
off to grab it now. After I read the short story for Emily because that girl
deserves a well hung, prince.
It's
funny how many times I have wanted to read this book and put it down because I
was worried it would be too sad or dark for my mood. And now that I've read it
I wish I had pulled up my big girl panties earlier. It definitely had moments
where I teared up a little bit but for the most part the story was just
beautiful.
Rylan
and Channing had both been through such a terrible upbringing and sadly Rylan
had chosen to follow in his parents’ path. Channing had worked hard not to be
her mother but after making some naive choices found herself in a compromised
position. From the first time they laid eyes on each other they had an instant
connection that I felt through the pages.
Both
Rylan and Channing had beautiful hearts and I loved how hard they were both prepared
to work to make the best of things. And to be the best possible version of
themselves for each other but especially for the innocent life they were
committed to from the start. Honestly through everything I couldn’t have loved
them or their actions more. Even when everything was against them, they just
held their heads up and worked to make things better.
They
had some awesome secondary characters around them who I’m really looking
forward to getting to know better when they each get their own stories. They
also had some truly horrible people who thankfully got some of what they deserved,
and I loved that the author wrapped up most of the strings from Rylan and
Channing’s story. There wasn’t any miracle or fairy god mother making things
magically amazing there was just real life and a continuation of them working
their arses off.
Finley Jacobson was obsessed with finding Mr. Right. But now, she’s too busy to date. She’s trying to figure out her life. After an adventurous youth, she’s been in her small hometown for a solid decade. She’s starting to wonder if it’s where she belongs.
There’s definitely one thing she knows for sure…she loathes her best friend’s older brother. And guess who’s been back in town lately? Yep. You guessed it, that irritating man who she has to be cordial with for the sake of her friendship.
Colter Landon’s marketing company has earned him a fancy penthouse in New York City, but the client he really wants to land is back home near the small town where he grew up. He’s spent fifteen years trying to stay away from the little town he once called home. And he has zero desire to associate with his sister’s friends while he is there. They were annoying when they were kids, and they are just as infuriating now.
These two enemies are doing just fine at staying away from each other, until Colter needs help making a
Valentine’s Day float for the art museum he wants as his next client. When his sister publicly suggests Finley would be the best person to assist him, the two are forced to work together or admit they can’t play nice after all these years.
Will several weeks of forced proximity get them more than just a winning float and a client? Or will these two enemies miss landing the one?
