Scoring Mr. Romeo (The Mr. Wrong, #3)

by A. M. Madden and Joanne Schwehm

Here’s a tip: never underestimate romance.



Falling in love was the furthest thing from my mind. I’m a single mother raising a strong little boy, and he is my one and only priority.



The universe felt otherwise, sending me—actually, my son’s soccer ball—hurdling toward a stunningly handsome, perfect man, who said all the right things. He made it hard to ignore how much I missed romance.



In the past, when I met a man, they ran as soon as they heard I was a widow with a child. Not this guy. No, he fell in love with my son, and in turn my son fell in love with him. But, it was hard to believe he felt the same about me. My job was to be the strong one—to protect our hearts from sweet dreams that never lasted.

Women told me I was a master of romance. They were right. I knew how to sweep a woman off her feet, to make her feel special, and good in all the right places. I wasn’t a saint. I’ve had my share of one-night stands. They served their purpose, giving me a steady diet of romance without the hassle of commitment.



Then one day at the park, a soccer ball came careening toward my head, and my life changed in an instant. I never imagined that true love would come in the form of a five-year-old little boy. And then I got to know his mother: She was strong, independent, drop-dead gorgeous, and someone I desired - I just needed to prove it to her.



She called me Mr. Romeo, and that was fine with me.



Lesson learned: Love always trumps everything.

Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Social Butterfly PR in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.I haven't read this writing duo before, but I'm so glad I did.  This romance was fun, sexy and everything I look for in a romance book.

Luca, the uber hot, insanely sexy but he also has the soft squishy center that makes him absolutely irresistible.  Add in how wonderful he is to a little boy in need of a father figure and you have a book that you can't put down.

It was easy to get behind Luca and Sabrina.  From the moment they meet, Luca goes all in, but you had to wonder if Sabrina was going to be able to get behind that.  It was fun watching Luca break down the walls Sabrina had built around her, while at the same building a relationship with her son.  Sabrina didn't make things easy, especially when she made Luca pay for her previous relationship, but it as rewarding seeing her understand what was important to not only herself but also her son.

SCORING MR. ROMEO is an awesome read.  As soon as I was done I immediately picked up the other books in the Mr. Wrong series.  Definitely one of the top reads of 2018.
