Noah Parks is the ridiculously gorgeous, motorcycle-riding, cage-match-fighting equivalent of kryptonite for Lindsay Harper. And she's going to need every last ounce of her strength now that she's the legal guardian of her brother's five orphaned children. For the sake of her new family, it's time to give up her carefree single ways. Stop being the cool aunt and become a parent. And fight this crazy attraction to Noah. Sure, there's a side of him she can't help falling for…the one who volunteers as a firefighter and helps at-risk youth. The irresistibly kind and caring side. But she is a nurse, after all. She can't love an MMA fighter, a man she regularly has to scan for physical trauma… Can she?
*I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review via Red Moon Book Tours*
Women's fiction is something I read, but not something I usually choose. I know, it's odd. I guess I just prefer violence to romance. But whenever I come across good women's fiction here at KSR, I like to make sure that my readers get wind of it!
This story is a bit unusual. I haven't seen a story where a woman all of a sudden becomes the guardian of five kids at once! Lindsay is a strong woman who gives up her life to be a mom to her nieces and nephews. Not many women would do that, and her selfless actions make her one of my favorite female leads.
Then you have Noah. I have a thing for fighters, *cough* Dean Ambrose *cough*, and Noah is one Hell of an appealing leading man! He's tough and determined, with quite a sweet core. He's kind of cliché, but I like it. Sometimes you need cliché in certain stories and with Lindsay being so unusual (in a good way), Noah is comfortable.
The story runs a typical romantic course, but it is pleasant to read. I liked curling up in bed with this book, feeling warm within the cushion a story like this has. While it's not usually my thing, I really liked it!
4/5--sweet and sexy!
