One Rule: No More Men.

Two years ago I walked away from a marriage I thought would last forever and all I got from it was Dick … 

and I don’t mean the one between my stupid ex’s legs. 

I’m talking about the one hundred fifty pound furry dog said ex dropped off at my doorstep.

But I’d take Dick over any man, any day. 

So why did I resemble my dog, panting and drooling, whenever I ran into Hudson West, my sexy new neighbor?

True, the gorgeous veterinarian was hotter than sin.

And my new roommate only made it impossible for me to avoid conversation with a man I didn’t need.

Until tragedy struck and some jerk decided to run Dick down.

It was hotter than sin Hudson who came to his rescue. 

Then it became impossible to ignore him. 

It was only supposed to be a fling, a quickie, a one and done.

We both had reasons to keep it that way … my one rule and his five-year-old son.

Except things didn’t quite work out that way.

One turned into two, then three, annnnd you get the picture.

Before we knew it, he gave me a lot more than puppies and fairy tales.

And that stupid rule?

I should’ve stuck to it because now more than my heart was at risk.

***5 Stars***

That cover was the bait. I mean who can deny that a cover with a half nekkid man and cute puppy doesn’t make them all kinds of melty? And then the synopsis was the hook because I do love me a single dad romance and this one had it all. It was funny, sweet, swoon worthy, adorable, smexy and just enough drama to keep me turning the pages to find out what would happen next and want more when everything was said and done.

I loved Milly and Hudson. Milly is sweet, strong, a little quirky and despite going through something that would shatter anyone, she’s found a way to pick herself up and move forward. And though she has walls surrounding her heart, she hasn’t turned cynical. Hudson is a good man and a great father. His love for Wiley, his son, made me all kinds of melty. He has his faults, which tend to give him ‘insert foot in mouth’ disease, but outside of that, it was hard not to love the man.

Milly and Hudson’s journey was a fun one, despite the demons that plague them. Outside of a few awkward moments, I loved how their relationship evolved as the book progressed. It felt organic as they kept colliding for one reason or another. Dick and Wiley definitely pushed things along with their antics (which were adorable and had me chuckling throughout the story) but they only helped to get the two adults into each other’s orbits and find that there was more than just a physical attraction between them. And as for that huge roadblock in their journey, it was HUGE and heartbreaking. I flip flopped on whose team I was on, and I did fall on one side more than the other, but in the end I loved how it all got resolved and where Milly and Hudson ended up.

I really enjoyed this read, and outside of a few little issues, some heartbreaking moments and that huge roadblock, it was a sweet, fun and adorable read and I will readily admit that Wiley and Dick factored heavily in my rating of the story because they played such huge roles in everything that happened. But outside of those two, I loved both of their families and wouldn’t mind being adopted by either. Catching up with Gray and Marin and their brood was a lot of fun and as for Pearson...well, after that ending, I kinda need his book like...oh...yesterday?? But since that’s impossible I will be keeping an eye out for when it drops!
