\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I was a forever-bachelor kind of guy.
\nI never planned on settling down.
\nI never wanted a family of my own.
\nUntil a phone call came, the one woman I\u2019d secretly loved my entire life needed my help.
\nI went from bars and hook-ups to late nights on the couch.
\nWhen her daughter is born, I find myself captivated by both of them, and falling deeper in love.
\nWhat happened to my forever-bachelor life, and is that the life I want?<\/p>\n

Review by Twinsie Angie<\/p>\n

I purchased this audio book.<\/p>\n

I love most books I read by Samantha.\u00a0 The characters are relatable and fun to cheer on or scream at when they are getting in their own way.\u00a0 This book was another great read.\u00a0 I will say the story of Kendra\u2019s abuse.\u00a0 I will say I think there should have been a trigger warning before the book.\u00a0 I say that because it seemed that Kendra\u2019s ex beat her up but then later in the story, she says there were 3 men involved in her assault.\u00a0 I don\u2019t have issues or triggers but that could affect some people since it seemed just domestic and then turned out to be a bit more.\u00a0 They don\u2019t elaborate on it but just give a warning.<\/p>\n

Kendra has always had a crush on Tristan but he was her brothers bestie and way older then her so why would he pay her any attention.\u00a0 Tristan looked at Kendra but knew his best friend would not be thrilled by the hook up, so he stayed away.\u00a0 However, when Kendra needs a safe place to go, he jumps to help his \u201cfamily\u201d.<\/p>\n

I will say I loved how Kendra and Tristan co-existed in the same space.\u00a0 I loved how encouraging he was to her and helping her get her footing BUT I wish I would have seen more scenes with them falling in love???\u00a0 I don\u2019t know.\u00a0 There were few good scenes like when they are on the couch hanging out and he is rubbing her feet but that\u2019s about it.\u00a0 I guess I wanted to see more from them.\u00a0 But I did enjoy the story, and I love how it all came to be in the end with their marriage of convenience.<\/p>\n
