Sometimes the universe works with you, other times against you.
This time it was working with me because I just finished Rushed (book #1) and just so happened to have this baby on the kindle (big mahalos to the publisher & NG) AND had the time to dive in to it and OMG…it was just as good, if not better, than the first. And believe me, I wasn’t expecting that all considering…but it was…it was SOOO good!
So why was it good? Blake, Everly and Sampson. I wasn’t a fan of Blake’s in Rushed. There were too many moments where I wanted to Gibbs smack him, but I figured I needed to give him a chance and lemme tell you…this man…total book boyfriend goodness. Everly is a force. Sweet, sassy, not afraid to tell it like it is and an amazing mama. This woman isn’t afraid to ask for help when she needs it, but she can also stand on her own two feet when necessary.
Blake and Everly’s journey to their HEA was really a lot of fun, and yes, Sampson played a huge part in it since his interactions with both of them showed each other, and us the readers, just what made them tick and how golden their hearts really are. I loved watching them all get to know each other and become friends, lovers and then family.
This was a great addition to the series. It is all that I loved about Rushed and a little more aka Sampson to make it a little different, but still have that same vibe that had me smiling the entire time. While the angst is low, there is a good dose of drama that kept things interesting. I loved Everly and Blake’s parents and getting to hang out with Tanner, Cybil, Mason & Margaret was a lot of fun. Now for Mav to get his HEA!

Everly never expected to move back in with her parents, and she definitely didn’t expect to do so as a single mother. But with the father of her son suddenly out of the picture, she’s had to make some adjustments to her plans.
Now Everly has one priority: to make a life for herself and her boy. And Blake, her sometimes infuriating but admittedly handsome employer at Live Life Adventures, doesn’t factor into her future as anything more than her boss.
But it seems the guy who’s about as friendly as a grizzly bear has a soft spot for her and her son…and the more time she spends with him, the more difficult it is to remember why giving in to the chemistry between them is a bad idea.
Now, with their future on the line, they’ll have to decide if love is a risk worth taking.
