If you read Love at First Fight and wanted a book for Heather and Campbell, this is it!
Two years ago, he double booked her on their fourth date, and now they're spending the summer living in the same beach house.
This book is spicy, emotional, and the best kind of beach read to kick off the warmer months.
Available in Kindle Unlimited now!
This summer was supposed to be an escape from the city and the demons lurking within it. Too bad the minute I arrive at the beach house I’m sharing with friends, the guy I swore I’d never talk to again in my life walks through the door.
Now I’m not only stuck hiding out from an ex who won’t leave me alone, but with someone who screwed me over before he could even be considered an ex.
That’s right, two years ago Campbell Whitlock double booked me on our fourth date. As in, had a girl show up to the table where he was feeding me off his own fork and barely disguising it as foreplay. Meanwhile, my head and heart had been completely on board to make our relationship more serious.
But a leggy blonde foiled that plan, and I’ve hated him on sight since. The ex-Marine turned millionaire restauranteur didn’t even have the decency to follow me with an apology as I ran out of his own establishment.
It's just my luck that I’m forced to room right next door to my nemesis, who couldn’t be acting more like a saint if he tried. And then the impossible happens; my ex hunts me down to deliver loaded threats and the fear I thought I’d left behind in Manhattan. Who is the only person to witness it? Campbell, of course.
His apology tour apparently extends to offering himself up as my fake boyfriend to scare off my stalker. While the plan is moronic and means having to spend more time with him, the danger I feel is real. Having a hulking, intimidating boyfriend, fake or not, might be exactly what I need.
With every passing day, pretend date, emotional gaze and midnight run-in, our relationship starts to feel less like a deal and more like something very similar to the connection I thought we had years ago. Even though I promised myself I’d never give him a second chance.
But what happens when the person protecting me starts to feel like the one I want to trust forever?
And how will I recover if his favor was done only to gain forgiveness, instead of a chance at falling in love?

My Review
I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review.
This book would have been a five star read for me, but I was really annoyed at how Heather treated Campbell at the beginning of this book. I don't agree with what he did, but I felt that she took "punishing" him way too far.
Having said that, once she got over herself and "forgave" Campbell, I absolutely loved them. The fake dating Starrs because Heather's ex is stalking her and Campbell was more than willing help her out. Campbell regrets how he treated her, so he sees this as the perfect chance to make it up to her.
Heather and Campbell end up spending a lot of time together when no one else is around. When he realized that during the week Heather is at the house by herself, Campbell makes a point of being there as well. Heather's ex is a bit of wild card and they have no idea what he is capable of, he makes the decision to be around more. It's during this time that they really get to know each other and the fake dating becomes very real.
Like most of Carrie's books, this book was both sweet and sexy. I absolutely adored Campbell and loved how protective he was without being an overboard Alpha. But when he and Heather gave in to their attractions...ooh boy!! Sexy times galore!
If you're a Carrie Aarons fan, I definitely recommend this one!
