And I Love Her by Marie Force

And I Love Her (Green Mountain Romance, #4) (Green Mountain)

by Marie Force

A Green Mountain Romance from the New York Times bestselling author of I Saw Her Standing There.

As the oldest of the ten Abbott siblings, Hunter prides himself on his ability to solve other people’s problems, but now he has a problem of his own—how to convince the woman of his dreams that his love is for keeps.

As the chief financial officer, Hunter Abbott manages the family’s various business interests while “fixing” things for the people he loves. But the one thing he can’t fix is his undeniable attraction to Megan Kane. Instead, Hunter is prepared to do whatever it takes to show Megan that he’s the man for her.
 
Megan’s sister rocks her with the news that she and her husband are moving overseas, leaving Megan truly alone. With her sister—and her job at the diner—going away, Megan finds herself leaning on the sexy, button-down accountant who isn’t afraid to lay it all on the line for her. But Megan has watched too many people she loves leave her. Can she risk her heart on Hunter?
 
Contains a bonus Green Mountain short story!

One thing I can always count on when picking up a Marie Force book is complete and utter enjoyment.

I'll admit that Megan was difficult to like in the previous books because of her feelings for Will (Hunter's brother) and her treatment of Cameron (Will's GF).  I truly wondered how Ms. Force was going to endear the reader to Megan.  Did she?  Did I like Megan?  I did.  Once Megan understood her feelings about Will, she was able to get out of her own way and realize just how incredible Hunter truly is.

Hunter...ohhhh Hunter.  Hunter is a bit of a workaholic who dearly loves his family.  He's the older sibling, the herder and keeper of everyone else.  He isn't intrusive or annoying, he's just always there, quietly in some way, making sure everyone else is okay.  Ms. Force gives us more of Hunter and Hannah's sibling/twin relationship and I truly loved that.

Once Hunter decided he wanted Megan he stopped at nothing to make her his. Hunter was much more alpha in the bedroom than I anticipated.... I totally did not see that coming!  He even admits to Megan that he likes being the boss...

 
"I'm the oldest of ten kids.  Bossy is my business."

"Are you always like that?"

"Sometimes  more than others."

"Like when?"

"You really want to know?" he asked.

"I wouldn't have asked if I didn't really want to know."

He leaned in close to her. pressing his lips against her ear.  "I'm really bossy in bed."

A tremble went trhough her that he felt becasue he was sitting so close to her.

"Is that right?"

"Uh-huh."

"Bossy how?"

[...]

"I know what I want, and I know how to get it, but only after you get what you want."

 

Uh yeah.  
 

Hunter is all quiet, buttoned-up, fancy pants wearing and totally in control.  With the exception of his feelings for Megan, once he lets them loose, he does not back down where she is concerned. Megan needs someone to tell her she matters and give her encouragement to be who she really wants to be.  Can you imagine being told, "I really like you and I just want you to be you?  I'm not going to put up with the walls you've put up because I want you... no matter what." (In a non-stalkery way, of course)

I adore the family aspect that is prevalent in Ms. Force's novel's and the Abbott family is so completely fascinating.  Elmer and Lincoln play matchmaker once again, I just love those guys.

Who's next?  Ella and Gavin.  Ms. Force always manages to introduce a new couple and make you out of your mind and ready to read them immediately.  She dangles a new couple in front of you like bait on a hook.  Consider me HOOKED.

As always there are so many hilarious moments, Ms. Force never fails to make me laugh and inevitably, swoon.
