About the Book

"You'll fall in love with these rugged Marines and their Reckless Hearts!" —Kelly Gendron, USA Today bestselling author of the Breaking the Declan Brothers series

I'm in love with a woman I can't have, and there's absolutely nothing I can do to stop myself from falling. 

The problem? Her brother's my best friend.

I shouldn't want her this much. Not when it goes against the bro code. Not when I've never been able to commit to a woman for longer than a night.

But one look into her eyes and I'm a mess for her. She's my everything. And I have to walk away with nothing.

My Review

Rating: ★★★★

Hand me a tissue because this book gives you all sorts of feels! 

A heartwarming tale of two people in love finding their way to each other. Max and Lia's story is guaranteed to have you grinning from ear to ear and blushing from head to toe with their electrifying chemistry. Jam packed with humor, romance, family drama and an awfully adorable baby - the author created just the right kind of mix for a perfect contemporary romance to satisfy your romance cravings. 

I especially loved it when the author portrayed Lia as a strong and independent woman who works hard towards her goal and wouldn't let any man, even Max, to sway her from achieving her dreams. I also loved that Max isn't all caveman-like and goes Neatherdal on Lia by controlling her life, but is mature enough to step back and gives her the space she needs to find herself. Despite the player reputation Max has built himself around, he is absolutely mouthwatering  a gentleman as a reformed player! 

The only reason I gave the rating short of five stars is that I was actually curious about Lia's past but did not find it to be fully explained in the story. Then again, I did not read the first book in the series and from the timeline it may have happened in Collin and Addie's story, so I'm definitely checking out the rest of the series! Speaking of, I need Gavin's story right now. 

P.S. I'd love to have a bro-squad like Gavin, Collin and Max. They are hilariously charming! (well, except for Gav's occasional grumpy a**, hehe).

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book provided by the author via Netgalley. Thank you for the reviewing opportunity!
