Brody
Minton has loved Scarlett Harris for years. But she’s his best friend’s wife,
so he’s worked hard to keep his distance. Hearing the marriage is over
shouldn’t change anything. Only an ass would make a move on a friend’s ex…
Except Scarlett wants help getting back in the dating game, and Brody’s torn.
If he helps her out, he can keep an eye on her and guard her vulnerable heart.
But having the woman he’s longed for years in arms’ reach is hell on a man’s
restraint, no matter how iron strong his will.
But
loving Scarlett is only half the fight.
All
Scarlett Harris wants is to get away for a while and rethink her life after
filing for divorce from her lying, cheating bastard of a husband. The gorgeous
Bahamas sounds like the perfect escape, except she’s booked in very resort
Brody “The Iron” Minton is staying at for his sister’s wedding. Now her ex’s
best friend is dogging her every move, and is a witness to her first pathetic
attempts at flirting in years. If Brody isn’t going to leave her alone, then
she’ll just recruit him to help get her reacquainted with her single self.
I found myself really loving Brody secret love for Scarlett but
since she is/was his best friend’s wife, he has backed off. This doesn’t mean that he hasn’t remained
friends with her throughout the eight years of marriage. When he sees her out and about, flirting with
other men, he puts at stop to it. Once
he finds out that Scarlett is in the middle of divorcing his best friend, and
he finds out the reason why she is divorcing him, he decides that he can’t let
her get back out there by herself and offers his services. So it really is a friend to lover kind of
story and we all know how much I love those kinds of romances.
Brody brought out the side of Scarlett that her soon to be ex
destroyed and made her realize what it was like to be in a relationship with a
man who sees you as the entire package. It
was cute and sweet and had some very nice sexy times. Brody teaches Scarlett how to enjoy herself
as a woman again while Scarlett gives Brody the encouragement that the needs to
keep his career afloat. The one thing
that I will say is that I hated Brody’s meddling sister, who should have kept
her nose in her own business.
During Brody and Scarlett’s story, we get to get a glimpse of
the next book’s characters. I am looking
forward to see how their story goes and what crazy fun they can have.
