REVIEW:
Going into the third book in this series I was starting to enjoy not knowing anything about the book or what was going to happen. Going by the previous two books I did expect to read a sweet love story that would brighten my day just a little bit.
I didn’t like Chance much from the previous books, the way he treated Landon was not okay. At the same time, I knew that I was going to read his story next, so there had to be some reason or other for his behaviour. And in the end I was probably going to end up liking him.
The verdict? Well, starting out, I still didn’t like Chance, but I expected that. I didn’t really know him, his motivations or what drove him. Getting further along into the book I got to understand him better. Never to the point where his behaviour was ok and could be excused, because it can’t, but to the point I understood why he acted the way he did. The constant rejections and put downs from his family, the team that doesn’t really care about him – other than that he pays for everything they do of course.
Brook needs to atone for past mistakes. He needs to grow up. And all that starts with getting a job so that he can pay the rent and food for him and his grandmother. Lying through his teeth he manages to land himself a job as a PA for Chance – well on a month’s trial basis. He is tasked to plan the most wonderful and perfect rehearsal dinner for Chances brother, and not only that, but he also needs to find a date for Chance that his disapproving father would actually accept – oh and that date must be female.
There were a lot of similarities between Brook and Chance, and it’s one of the things that made them work so well together, They could relate to each other. Add in some really nice sexual tension and Brooks days working as a PA is interesting for sure. And I just have to add that I just love Brooks meddling grandmother, and I kind of hope to see more of her in the books to come.
This series started out a bit rocky with the first book. But the second and third was such sweet stories and I’ve had a wonderful time reading them. I’m looking forward to what else this series will bring in the future, because these novellas are perfect for days you want something short and sweet.
Highly recommended.
