What are two besties willing to risk for something more? The New York Times bestselling author of This Is Love has the answer in this fun, sexy, and emotional romance about friendship, family, and giving love a chance.
Something is off in Piper Dalton’s life, and she has a feeling it might just be her. All her siblings are blissfully settled with their forever loves. But while her sisters were dreaming of white weddings, Piper was left heartbroken and commitment phobic by her first love, her best friend’s younger brother. As a woman dominating the male-driven construction industry, Piper has no interest in turning in her hammer for an apron—even if hot and hilarious Harley thinks otherwise.
Burly bar owner Harley Dutch has a bum ankle and two preteen nieces to take care of, and having his best friend, tough-as-nails and sexy-as-sin Piper Dalton, come to his rescue is just the remedy he needs. Piper is her snarky self, and she kind of sucks at caregiving, but she’s owned his heart for years, she’s got a way with the girls, and Harley would sure like to have his way with her…
As things heat up between Piper and Harley, she warns him not to fall in love with her because she’ll only break his heart. Harley is the right man for that challenge—until he makes the biggest mistake of his life, and they begin to wonder if true love really can conquer all.
This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. Thank you to Melissa and Lisa for letting me review this book.
This book is all about Harley and Piper. If you have read the other Harmony Pointe books then you would have met both of these characters before but you can read it as a standalone. I have been waiting for Piper's book for a long time and I was very excited to read it.
Piper doesn't see herself as everyone else does. Piper is one of the most caring people out there but her tough exterior lets her believe that she's not good enough. In the past, guys have tried to change Piper to be more 'girly'. My heart breaks for Piper that she has been through that. No one should have to change who they are for someone else. I love Piper's tough exterior as much as I love her mushy, sappy heart.
It might seem like Piper has friend-zoned Harley but I think she just had a few too many walls up to realise that she felt a lot more than for him. Harley Dutch is an easy character to fall for. He has a big heart. He is protective of his friends and family and is really just an all-round good guy.
I really enjoyed this book and I loved catching up with all the other characters from Harmony Pointe. Melissa really does capture your heart with each and every one of her characters and I love seeing how they are all doing.
