I’m her brother’s best friend, and for the past ten years, I’ve also been Addison McKenzie’s dirty little secret.
My pro-hockey player lifestyle kept me from her, but I thought we had a good thing going. Burning up the sheets whenever I visited home worked well for us.
Or so I thought.
When a season-ending injury sends me back to Starlight Cove, I find out she thinks of me as nothing more than a mistake.
She’s trying her hardest to ignore my presence, but being snowed in together is making that difficult.
So is sharing a bed.
Old habits die hard, and it’s no surprise we fall right back into each other. Undeniable chemistry was never our problem, though. Making it last in the real world was.
But I’ve been in love with Addison for years. And I have no intention of giving up on us now.
This is one of my favourite books so far this year…. and Chase Lockhart is by far my fave MMC of the series!!!!
The gods… this pair!!! What Addidon McKenzie thought and perceived and what actually happened were polar opposites…. but she was hell bent on not giving her long time ‘partner’ a second in order to find out the truth.
The push and pull, the dogged determination of Chase to get his girl and the stubbornness and determination of Addy to ignore him…..they were perfect for each other, he knew that and just needed her to get on board, and was positive he would, if he could get her to actually talk to him.
Thankfully he got his chance when they get snowed-in. Ok, Addy isn’t over the moon being stuck with the last person she expected to see that day and the one person she wanted to avoid, but truth be told, she never stood a chance, even if they hadn’t ended up stuck together as they did.
The things this man did with her in mind FOR 10 YEARS without her realising.. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 When the truth all came out….. my heart was bursting (in the best of ways!!!!)
So many emotions, the highs, the banter, the ‘gift’ and holy smokes THE HEAT, this book had it all. The scene where their relationship became public knowledge….. it was awesome!!
I love a book with no third act break up so that there was none here added even more to my appreciation of Addy & Chase’s story. Loved catching up with the brothers and their significant others.
I’m sad this series is coming to an end but I’m so very excited for Levi’s story and can’t wait for what Brighton is gonna give us when it comes to him and his girl!!!
5 huge possessive heart shaped stars for this fabulous read!
Meet Brighton Walsh:
Award-winning USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Brighton Walsh spent a decade as a professional photographer before taking her storytelling in a different direction and reconnecting with her first love—writing. She likes her books how she likes her tea—steamy and satisfying—and adores strong-willed heroines and the protective heroes who fall head over heels for them. Brighton lives in the Midwest with her real life hero of a husband, her two kids—both taller than her—and her dog who thinks she’s a queen. Her boy-filled house is the setting for dirty socks galore, frequent dance parties (okay, so it’s mostly her, by herself, while her children look on in horror), and more laughter than she thought possible.
“Books are a uniquely portable magic.”
― Stephen King
My favourite genre is PNR - yep, more than happy to admit that I’m a bit of a #parawhores...... but small town is a very close second!!! In saying that, I’ll read and review a real mix of genres - from the better known authors to new-to-me authors and everything in between.
I hope you enjoy the posts and that they might lead you to some ‘new to you’ authors.
Thanks for stopping by.
