Weights of Wrath, an all-new surprise pregnancy romantic comedy from M.E. Carter, is LIVE EARLY on AppleBooks, Nook, Kobo, and GooglePlay! 

Rosalind Palmer was blessed with the perfect stage name. Or so she’s been told. There are just a few problems with it:

1) Her family doesn’t know she’s a stripper

2) She’d like to keep it that way

3) She got over the nickname somewhere around seventh grade.

Unfortunately—because she likes her job and she really likes her independence—her unexpected pregnancy means Rosalind’s days on a pole are numbered. Even so, she’s determined to make this co-parenting thing work.

Joey Marshall never thought much about having kids until he got the text announcing his impending fatherhood. Now it’s all he can think about. But there are a few concerns:

1) He doesn’t know anything about babies.

2) Adulting usually leads to disaster.

3) It’s his best friend’s cousin he knocked up.

First things first, making sure his baby’s mama is in this for the long haul. Because now he’s got baby on the brain, he can’t wait to make this co-parenting thing into so much more.

Now all he has to do is convince Rosalind, which shouldn’t be too hard . . . right?

Join us at Weight Expectations. You never know what to expect.

‘Weights of Wrath’ is a full-length contemporary romance, and can be read as a standalone. Book #4 in the Cipher Office series, Seduction in the City World, Penny Reid Book Universe.

About M.E. Carter

My name is M.E. Carter and I have no idea how I ended up writing books. I’m more of a story teller (the more exaggerated the better) and I happen to know people who helped me get those stories on paper. I love reading (read almost 200 books last year), hate working out (but I do it anyway because my trainer makes me), love food (but hate what it does to my butt) and love traveling to non-touristy places most people never see. I live in Houston with my four kids, Mary, Elizabeth, Carter and Bug, who was just a twinkle in my eye when I came up with my pen name. Yeah, I’ll probably have to pay for his therapy someday for being left out.

My Review...

I needed a story like this! I absolutely loved this hilarious and swoony story from Ms. Carter!

This is the story of Joey and Rosalind. 

Rosalind goes by a couple of names in this book and for good reason! I so loved this character! I understood her standoffish nature and I so admired her lack of shame in her profession! It was total woman power player right there! I admired her strength, she was almost too strong for her own good.

Joey, you goofy, swoony fella! You can’t help but fall in love with him. He goes through life with a devil may care attitude until he sees a goal and then he fights tooth and nail to be successful at it.

I really enjoyed the fact that the first time that Joey and Rosalind “meet” it’s not hearts and flowers. In fact it was a little lackluster according to Rosalind and that bit of spin makes this story even better.

I also enjoyed seeing past characters making an appearance and I loved how this story blends so well in the Smartypants Romance world.

Well done on a fantastic read!

My Review...

I was so excited to see Eros’s story come to life in this newest story by the talented Claudia Burgoa!

We finally get to see the elusive Eros and where he really disappearing to in the previous books in this series. Now don’t get discouraged by that last sentence! This story, along with all the others can be read as a standalone. So if this is your first foray into the Brassard world, welcome and get ready to fall in love with the characters.

Olivia is the reason for Eros’s disappearances! A chance meeting and then serendipity and fate take the wheel in their relationship.

Olivia’s upbringing is a bit chaotic, but full of love.  But it still leaves some lingering issues in the heart for her. She is young when her and Eros meet for the first time, but she truly is an old soul.

The pace and flow of this story was phenomenal! Even as the years pass in this story, I was still invested in what was going on. It was lovely to “see” past characters make an appearance, they didn’t distract from the main story, but they sure did bring more to it!

I am always amazed by the stories that Ms. Burgoa gives to the readers, and this story is no exception!

Marriage and Murder, an-all new quirky and witty cozy mystery and the second book in the Solving for Pie: Cletus and Jenn Mysteries from New York Times bestselling author Penny Reid is available now!

The Devil is in the details . . .
Cletus Byron Winston wishes to marry Jennifer Anne Donner-Sylvester (aka The Banana Cake Queen) posthaste! He’s spent the last year wanting nothing more than for the celebrations to be brief, libations flowing, and BYOB (bring your own blueberries). His future mother-in-law has other plans, plans his intended has been willing to indulge, much to Cletus’s chagrin. Therefore, so must he. To a point. But truth be told, he wouldn’t mind if the meddlesome matriarch disappeared, at least until the nuptials are over.

On the night of Cletus and Jenn’s long-awaited engagement party, just when the surly schemer is of a mind to take matters into his own hands, a shocking event upends everyone’s best laid plans and sends the small hamlet of Green Valley into complete disarray. The final months leading up to Cletus and Jenn’s matrimonial bliss are plagued with chaos and uncertainty. Will Cletus and Jenn finally make it to the altar? Or will murder and mayhem derail their happily-ever-after?
And most importantly, who done it?

‘Marriage and Murder’ is the second book in the cozy mystery series Solving for Pie: Cletus and Jenn Mysteries. It is best read after Winston Brothers #3, ‘Beard Science’ (which can be read as a standalone) and Solving for Pie: Cletus and Jenn Mysteries #1, ‘Engagement and Espionage.’

Excerpt

“Here.” Cletus suddenly appeared, looking devilishly handsome in the dim light and seemingly all put back together—like we’d been in here holding hands instead of. . . ANYWAY.

He held out my underwear. His eyes were bright even in shadow, and I could see they were half-lidded as they lazily trailed over me. He looked at me like he was hungry, and I was dinner. Despite all the encore orgasms I’d just had, the effect hit me right between my legs. 

I wondered what he was thinking, watching as he licked his bottom lip and drew it into his mouth. Was he just as insatiable for me? And if so, was he okay with that?

Tearing my eyes away, I pulled on the lace and fixed my skirt, telling my body to settle down. We were getting married for hootenanny’s sake! 

Cletus cocked his head to the side while I smoothed my hands down the red fabric, working to get a hold of all this raging want always coursing through my veins whenever he was near. Maybe it was because he was my first, and I guess, my only. Was that why I felt so crazed for him all the time? 

“Miraculous,” he said.

I surmised he meant the dress. “Right? The wrinkles are hidden, if there are any. It’s ’cause they ruched the outer fabric at the seams, see?” I turned to the side to show him the seam, and he stepped forward as though he were going to investigate.

Instead, his hands cupped my face and tilted my chin back. He stared at me with a vibrant intensity I felt all the way to my fingertips. “No, Jenn. Not the dress. You.” Cletus gave me a soft kiss, ending it by gently nipping my bottom lip. “You are my miracle.”

I sighed. And I smiled. And I felt like I was walking on a cloud instead of in four-inch heels, which was also probably something of a miracle. “You say the sweetest things.”

“I think you mean, I say the truest things.”

 I laughed, and he kissed my forehead. He held me there, in the dark with his lips pressed to my forehead. “I love you so completely, with every cell in my body. I wonder sometimes if I’d cease to exist—just evaporate or disappear—if anything ever happened to you.”

“No.” I anchored my hands to his wrists and squeezed. “Don’t think like that. We’ve got our whole lives in front of us. There’s nothing anyone can—”

Three bangs in quick succession pierced the quiet moment, and not a second later Cletus had me on the ground beneath him, covering my back with his body.

“Gunshots,” he whispered in my ear. “From the parking lot. Don’t move.”

My Review...

I so love this spin off series about Cletus and Jenn. This is a couple that is so underestimated by most folks has a love that outshines everything!

This story picks up with Cletus and Jenn finally celebrating their engagement. And what a party it is. Mayhem ensues and a new mystery needs to be solved.

Cletus has got to be one of the most fascinating characters I have ever read. His quirkiness, and his love for Jenn is just inspiring and the talent of Ms. Reid to be able to create such a unique hero is just a testament to her writing talent.

I love how past characters make appearances, but they don’t overshine the main plot of the story, they just add to it. 

This story is full of mystery, love, charm and swoons. Oh and as the title says, marriage! But I am not going to spoil it for you.

Another stellar story from the great mind of Penny Reid, get your hands on it!

BLURB:

USA Today bestselling author Meghan Quinn’s latest bauble is the charming story of a crafting queen battling a jaded divorce lawyer on a wedding reality show.

Luna Rossi is a veritable crafting genius—she can bedazzle and bead so hard her Etsy site is one of the hottest in the world. So it’s only natural that Luna would convince her brother and his husband-to-be to compete on The Wedding Game, a “do-it-yourself” TV show, for the title of Top DIY Wedding Expert.

As a jaded divorce lawyer, Alec Baxter scoffs at weddings and romance. But when his recently engaged brother begs him to participate in The Wedding Game, Alec grudgingly picks up a glue gun and prepares for some family bonding.

Both fierce competitors, Luna and Alec clash on national TV as harsh words and glitter fly with abandon. But as they bicker over color swatches and mood boards, they find themselves fighting something else: their growing mutual attraction. While Luna is torn between family loyalty and her own feelings, Alec wonders if he might have been wrong about love and marriage all along…

EXCERPT:

“Are you ready?” Farrah says, coming from behind me and massaging my shoulders. I move my head side to side while we both hop up and down. “Did you do those finger exercises I told you about?”

I flex my fingers and nod. “Yup, all warmed up.”

“Do you have your game face on?” Farrah spins me around and grips my shoulders as I mean mug it at her. “Ooo, you’ve been practicing in the mirror. I can tell.”

“When I brush my teeth. I really feel like I’ve mastered the scowl.”

“Honey, you mastered the scowl years ago. Now you’re just coming into your own with it.” She holds up her hands, and I start boxing into them as we leap around the apartment. “Quick on your feet, quick on your feet.” Farrah swings her hand at me, and I duck. “Focus, hone your attention.”

“Focused.”

“Tell me, who’s going to kill it today?”

“I am.” I bob back and forth and then give Farrah a one-two punch to her hands.

“Who’s going to do anything necessary, even sit on someone’s face if you need to, in order to win today’s challenge?”

“I am. Show no mercy. My ass is coming for your face.”

Farrah pauses, winces. “I’m not sure I like that.”

“Just go with it.”

“Okay, Luna’s ass is coming for your face.” She shrugs. “Next week let’s work on your trash talk.”

“Might be necessary.”

Circling again, I box at Farrah’s hands, feeling light on my feet and ready for anything that comes my way. “You’re going to ignore all conversations from Mr. Snobby Shoes.”

“I don’t even know he exists.”

“Your eyes are on the prize. And what is that prize?”

“Giving Cohen and Declan the best wedding possible.”

“Exactly.” She lowers her palms. “Quick, flash me your hands.”

I lift my hands, and she inspects them carefully.

“You lotioned—good. Nails are clipped to a perfect length, and those fingers are stretched and strong. Rotate your wrists for me.” She lowers her ear to my wrists as I circle them around. “Perfect, no cracking, no tension.” She points to the ground. “Fast feet.”

My feet start bouncing up and down, like in those football movies, and I hold my hands at my hips, ready for the call . . .

“Draw!” Farrah shouts.

I pull my glue gun from my hip and point it at her. “You’ve been glued.”

Farrah claps her hands. “Reaction time was spot on. You’re ready.”

“Yeah?”

She nods. “You got this, girl. This competition is yours for the taking. And remember what we talked about: don’t focus on what you think will win . . .”

“Focus on what will bring Cohen and Declan joy.”

My Review...

You are in for a treat with this funny, sweet and swoony story from Meghan Quinn.

This story is going to pull you in like a macrame rope and make your heart explode with goodness like a well planned glitter bomb!

This is the story of Alec and Luna. This is the story of rivalries and stiff competition. This is also a story of family dynamics and mending fences. 

Luna is a crafting queen, she is the epitome of a #Procraftinator and she decided to enter her brother and his fiance into the newest DIY show The Wedding Game. She is in it to win it for him.  I loved Luna and Cohen’s relationship! A true brother/sister bond and Luna will fight tooth and glue gun to get her brother the wedding of their dreams. (Or is it her dreams?)

Alec has closed himself off from his dysfunctional parents and has slowly drifted away from his brother.  I absolutely loved Thad’s dramatics and how he pulls Alec in to participate with him on the show.

The chemistry between Alec and Luna was wicked hot and it was so swoony to read their interactions and how they tried to separate their budding relationship from the show was so finely written it seemed so real. I admired how Ms. Quinn was able to tap into Alec’s feelings and make him even more of a hero.

If you are looking for a quintessential story from Ms. Meghan Quinn, look no further!

My Review...

Boston Hawks Hockey

Whew!! This story is hotter than Satan’s mixtape! I fell hard for Easton Scotch when he was introduced to us in the first book in this series. Don’t worry this can totally be read as a stand alone but do yourself a favor and read both!

This is Easton and Claire’s story. An forever crush and a best friend’s younger sister are the premises for this newest book in the Boston Hawks series.

Fresh from rehab, Easton is struggling to get back to a new normal. Hockey has been the only constant in his life and he has to fight for his spot back. 

Claire has loved Easton for as long as she can remember and she becomes the light to Easton’s darkness. 

This book is about co-dependency and the effect it has on relationships. Claire and Easton’s relationship was insta-love and I could empathize with both of them on managing the bumps and setbacks in their relationship. I applaud how they both fixed each other and themselves.

This series has just been getting better and better! I can’t wait for the next story and maybe more! There’s a couple of players I have my eye on!

See My Review Below!!!

From New York Times Bestselling author Corinne Michaels comes a new second chance standalone love story.

At eighteen, I walked away from Willow Creek Valley for good.

I was young, scared, and stupid, and it cost me the love of my life—Grayson Parkerson.

Fourteen years later, a crash sends me back home to recover.

Back to where we met, fell in love, and planned a future.

The one he’s now living as a single dad to his daughter.

Working at The Park Inn together gives us a chance to reconnect, and seeing him with his little girl makes me long for the days when he was mine. One look in his gorgeous blue-green eyes, and it’s like I never left. One kiss, and my world is upside down. One night together, and I know without a doubt, in his arms is where I belong.

I’m not the girl I was—intimidated by his wealthy family and desperate to escape our small town. I can imagine a new life for us here.

But he’s learned to guard his heart, and trust won’t come easily.

How can I convince him to give first love a second chance?

Pregnant at forty-two? Back the cow up…

Harland Bull Eaton has lost many things—his first wife, his beloved mother, those three women he proposed to . . . Oh, and there was that time he almost lost the family dairy farm due to a scandal. He’s losing faith in just about everything, especially love.

But one night, his friends give him a dare. No commitments. No heartbreak. Just buy that gorgeous redhead a drink. The big-city bombshell he’s set his eyes on swirls him into a tailspin that lands them in bed for a one-night stand he’s pretty sure he’ll never forget. But this time, he swears, he won’t let his heart ride herd on his common sense.

Recently separated and newly unemployed, Scarlett Russell is at a crossroads. With no other plan than visiting a friend in Vermont, the last thing she expects is a hunky, silver fox offering to buy her a drink. Even less expected is when she raises that offer to “take me to bed, cowboy.” She just wants one night to forget everything gone wrong.

Turns out once won’t be nearly enough. Won’t ever be enough, feeling the way she does. But secrets and an unexpected surprise are a lot to handle . . . unless these two can break a trail to an unexpected happily ever after.

My Review...

The queen of over 40 romance has struck again!  This story is another jewel in her crown.

This is the story of Bull and Scarlett. Both older but not necessarily wiser. A one-night stand that has lasting repercussions.

Scarlett has been dealt a crappy hand in life. She decides to start a new life in a new town.

Bull is a true cowboy, in every sense of the word. He too has been dealt some not-so-stellar cards in the love and romance department.

The settings described were beautiful. The swoons were aplenty and I fell hard for Bull. Their chemistry was hotter than hot and they were what they both needed in life.

I admired how Ms. Dunbar is able to navigate through the world of “geriatric pregnancies” I too hate that medical term! No matter what your age, surprises come in all shapes and sizes.

I am new to the True North series, and this glimpse into this lovely world has made me want to read more! Ms. Dunbar can write no wrong in my eyes and this newest story confirms it!

I’m a city girl—born and raised.
My plans for the future include a towering high-rise that overlooks the hustle and bustle.
Living in farm country? That possibility never had a place on my bucket list.

Until now.

Enter Reeve Colton—local bachelor and shameless flirt.
Bumping into him on my introductory stroll down Main Street is a delicious housewarming treat.
The small-town charm of Bampton Valley begins sinking in that afternoon.
Maybe this temporary relocation is a blessing in disguise.

It turns out Reeve and I have more in common than our mutual appreciation for good barbecue.
Don’t even get me started on his magnetic personality and ridiculous good looks.
Striking a bargain with him is a no-brainer.

What starts as a bit of fun becomes complicated in a hurry.
But that won’t change the inevitable.
When my contract is done, I’ll be leaving him—and Bampton Valley—behind.

My Review...

I am a huge Harloe Rae fan and this new story from her is swoontastic!

This is the story of Audria and Reeve. A city girl and a farmer boy. This is a total opposites attract kinda romance and I was hooked from the get go!

As a Minnesota gal myself, I love that Ms. Rae uses our region as the back drop to her story and the small town of Bampton Valley is beautifully written and honestly real! Living in a small town is no joke and when Audria moves there she has a bit of culture shock.

Reeve is the epitome of a country/farmer man. He was born and bred in Bampton and his series of never-ever dates even swayed me into loving small town life.

Their chemistry and I am going to quote the author here, “could reverse the windchill in January”! I love this quote so much it may be used in future reviews (I will totally give Ms. Rae credit of course!) I was shaking my head at the audacity at the rules they created for their “not” relationship. You knew those rules were meant to be broken!

I hope this isn’t the last we see of the people of Bampton Valley, there are so many characters that need their own stories too!

Bet the Farm is LIVE and available from your favorite online book retailer! This heartfelt, flirty story of opposites attract from Staci Hart is just what you need. Happy reading! 💕

Amazon | AppleBooks | Kobo | B&N | Goodreads

Olivia Brent has one summer to save the dairy farm she just inherited.

But there’s one problem, and it’s not her lactose intolerance.

Jake Milovic.

The brooding farmhand has inherited exactly fifty percent of Brent Farm, and he’s so convinced the city girl can’t work the land, he bets she can’t save it in a summer. 

Determined to prove him wrong, Olivia accepts what might be the dumbest wager of her life.

His strategy to win seems simple: follow her around, shirtlessly distracting her between bouts of relentless taunting. And it’s effective—if his dark eyes and rare smiles aren’t enough to sidetrack her, the sweaty, rolling topography of the manbeast’s body would do the trick.

What they don’t know: they’ll have to weather more than each other. 

Mysterious circumstances throw the farm into disarray, and with the dairy farm in danger, Olivia and Jake have to work together. But when they do, there’s more to fear than either of them imagined.

Because now their hearts are on the line, and the farm won’t be the only casualty if they fail.

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life — a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can’t forget that. She’s also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She’s been a wife, though she’s certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She’s also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she’s been drinking whiskey. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.

My Review...

Oh how I love a lady who embraces pink! It’s my signature color, from my luggage to my motorcycle.

This story of Olivia and Jake is going to give you all the feels! Set on a dairy farm, this story is going to make you laugh and cry, swoon and get mad, written in the magical way that only Ms. Hart can.

A devastating loss brings Olivia home. She is heartbroken, yet strong in her convictions to make her family farm stronger. She has some amazing, fresh ideas on just how to do it. Then she runs into the brick wall named Jake.

Jake has made the farm home since he was taken in by Olivia’s grandpa. He became family and when the farm becomes in debt, he feels he is to blame and does what he needs to to keep the farm afloat.

Sparks fly when Olivia and Jake are forced together to make the farm profitable again. Against crazy odds and stubbornness on both their parts they try to work together. A thin line between love and hate is the focal point in their relationship and it was riveting to read how their relationship plays out.

If you are looking for a fantastic story, set on a magical farm, look no further!

Call Me Crazy, an all-new enemies to lovers standalone romance from USA Today bestselling author Melanie Harlow is available now!

It was the perfect plan.
I needed a wife–temporarily–in order to inherit the family business.
And she needed a favor–the kind that takes nine months to deliver.

We had it all worked out, from the no-touching policy on our wedding night (her rule) to the no-falling-in-love decree (mine). She’d marry me, I’d give her the means to have the baby she’d always wanted, and one year later we’d amicably part ways with no hassle, no demands, and certainly no regrets.

After all, Bianca DeRossi and I are experts at infuriating one another–we’ve been doing it since we were kids. Trouble is, she grew up gorgeous and feisty, and she still knows exactly how to get under my skin.

And that wedding night? Well, it doesn’t exactly go down hands-free.

Then she moves in with me, and I really start to lose my mind. From her sexy little pout to her wicked sense of humor to those meatball sandwiches she makes just because she knows they’re my favorite . . . I find myself wanting to break every rule we put in place.

Our story was never supposed to end with happily ever after.
But call me crazy, I just might be in love with my wife.

Excerpt

“So how’s your ego tonight? A little bruised, huh?”

“It’s fine,” I said, tightening the knot in my tie. “Reina obviously wasn’t the right choice for a wife. I’m glad she said no.”

Bianca started to choke on her olive. “Wait a minute.” She fanned her face and managed to swallow. “You proposed to—to—what was the little girl’s name?”

“Reina. And you’ve got no room to call someone little, Tiny.”

As I’d hoped, the old nickname drew a brief scowl from her. “We’re talking about you right now. Did you actually propose tonight? Like with a ring?” 

I exhaled, regretting I’d mentioned it. “Yeah. I did.”

Her eyes lit up. “Let me see it.”

“No.”

“Why not?”

“Because you just want to rub salt in my wound.”

“For fuck’s sake, Enzo. You’re not wounded. You don’t even love this girl, you just needed to put a ring on her finger so your dad would put your name on the company letterhead.” She held out her hand. “Now give it here.”

Something told me I was going to be sorry, but I reached into my jacket and pulled out the ring box. 

She took it from me and opened it up. “It’s pretty,” she said with grudging admiration. Then she squinted at it, pushing her glasses up her nose. “Did you have it engraved?”

I picked up my bourbon and took a hefty swallow. “No.”

“But it says  .  .  .” She set the box down and pulled the ring from the velvet to examine it closer. Then she started laughing. “‘Love Always, Ricky?’”

“Give me that.” Leaning forward, I tried to swipe the ring from her hand, but she held it out of my reach. 

“Just a second! I want to try it on.”

I thumped against the back of the booth, picking up my drink again and tossing back the rest of it. Could this night get any worse? 

Bianca slipped the ring on her finger—it fit—and held out her hand, studying it. “So what did you say?”

“I proposed.”

“But how? Like, did you say, ‘You’re the love of my life and I want to be with you forever’ kind of thing?

”“Uh, not exactly. I didn’t want to lie to her. I just, you know, gave her the ring.” I made a grand, sweeping gesture with one hand. 

“But you must have said something.”

“What difference does it make?” I asked irritably. 

“Look, I’m only trying to help you. You obviously blew it tonight, and by your own admission, you need to find a Lucy for your Ricky sooner rather than later, right?” 

I looked around for Lara. I needed another drink. And then a ride home. 

“Right?” Bianca prodded me with her foot under the table again. “So let me help you.”

“The only way you could help me is to marry me,” I grumbled, waving Lara over. “And since that’s out of the question, this discussion is over.”

“Well, wait a minute. Who said it’s out of the question?”

I stared at her like she’d sprouted horns. “Huh?”

Bianca continued to study the ring on her finger. “I’m just thinking out loud here. But it seems to me we each have a goal, and they could both be accomplished with one simple—fake—relationship.”

I shook my head, as if to clear it, but the fog remained. “I know I’m drunk, but what the hell are you talking about?”

She sighed and picked up her martini for a sip. “I’m talking about the fact that you need a wife to get what you want. I’m willing to be that wife—temporarily, and under the strictest of conditions—if you’ll agree to give me what I want.”

I shook my head. “Oh, no. No fucking way. I see what you’re doing here. I’m not paying you to fake being my wife.”

Bianca rolled her eyes. “Give me a break, Enzo. I don’t want your money. Nor do I need it.”

“Then I don’t understand, ”I said, feeling—once again—completely baffled by a woman. “What could you possibly want that I could give you?”

The smile that crept over those hellfire lips should have been a warning. “A baby.”

My Review…

Bellamy Creek Series…

I love this series! I am in love with the town and it’s residents! Each story brings more depth and a more vested interest in the town.

This is the story of Enzo and Bianca and what a story it is! These two have know each other and their families for years. They didn’t get on very much when they were younger, in fact the animosity grew every time their families tried to push them together.

A thin line between love and hate is the definition of this relationship. I loved the push and pull dynamic. Like Enzo, I loved Bianca’s moxie. She stands up for what she wants, and when her an Enzo strike a deal to benefit them both, she sticks to it….welllll until.

Enzo grew up with a dysfunctional view of marriage and relationships. So he was allergic to the thought of marriage…until time catches up and he has to do something drastic to secure his future.

You are going to get all the feels with this story, I was sympathetic with Bianca’s plight. She handled it with dignity and poise, but sometimes needed a soft place to fall into her feelings. Enzo became that for her.

It was terrific to “see” past characters make appearances. It was a lovely reunion and time to catch up without distraction from the main story.

I cannot wait for the next story from this series!
