Brothers best friend that broke your heart, a common trope, but a hot one. Olivia (Liv) fell for Parker, her brothers best friend 4 years ago, and then he broke her heart and she ran away to Georgia. 4 years later shes at work, when her she runs into her brother… and Parker. And they force her to go back home to Tennessee. But now Parker is engaged and set to get married soon, but can he keep the feelings for Liv that he never lost at bay or will he break a heart again to get what he wants?
Parker is a HOT ASS man. He’s a tattoo artist who is simultaneously a badass. Well used to be before his fiancé Emily came into the picture. But when he sees Liv again while at his bachelor party, he can’t help but let the rush of feelings for her come flooding back and before he knew it he was falling for her again. And let me tell you, the whole “I can’t have you so nobody can” thing, never used to be hot to me. Until Parker entered the picture.
Liv definitely fit my expectations throughout the novel. She didn’t want Parker to break another heart so she kept her distance. But that doesn’t work too well for her. I love how we got a dual perspective (or maybe even a quad perspective if you count the flashbacks) and we got to see how they both went through the process of falling in love and breaking apart. It was heart wrenching, but it built a love for both characters. I loved the smut in the end, it was hot. Liv’s “fuck me like you hate me” was SO FUCKING HOT, I might have to use it 😅👀 but seriously the smut was well written and definitely did what it needed to.
