Review
This was a quick read about friends to lovers.
Max Savage and Lucy Dare have had a thing for each other for years but neither one acted on their feelings. When Max decides to marry someone else to try to forget Lucy, she leaves for California to try to mend her broken heart.
At an engagement party they see each other and with the blessing of a couple of the Dare siblings Max decides that is now or never and goes for the woman he always wanted, Lucy.
Both of these characters have their issues from the past that are somehow holding them back. I really liked Max's character, he was very likable and someone lovable, a bit dominant, but it definitely suits him well. Lucy is the one I had a bit of a hard time with, she comes through as insecure, subdued, and while you could feel how much wanted her and his intense desire for her, I didn't feel like she felt the same way for him, something was missing for me. That said, they were memorable moments between Max and Lucy and very sexy scenes as well. All and all a pretty good read.
This is a sweet story that fans of the Dare series are definitely going to enjoy.
