Blurb:
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lexi
Blake comes a new story in her Masters and Mercenaries series…
Brian “Boomer” Ward believes in sheltering strays. After all,
the men and women of McKay-Taggart made him family when he had none. So when
the kid next door needs help one night, he thinks nothing of protecting her
until her mom gets home. But when he meets Daphne Carlton, the thoughts hit him
hard. She’s stunning and hardworking and obviously in need of someone to put
her first. It doesn’t hurt that she’s as sweet as the cupcakes she bakes.
Daphne Carlton’s life revolves around two things—her kid and
her business. Daphne’s Delights is her dream—to take the recipes of her
childhood and share them with the world. Her daughter, Lula, is the best kid
she could have hoped for. Lula’s got a genius-level intelligence and a heart of
gold. But she also has two grandparents who control her access to private school
and the fortune her father left behind. They’re impossible to please, and
Daphne worries that one wrong move on her part could cost her daughter the life
she deserves.
As Daphne and Boomer find themselves getting closer, outside
forces put pressure on the new couple. But if they make it through the storm,
love will just be the icing on the cake because family is the real prize.
My review:
I LOVE Boomer! Boomer is not your average alpha book
boyfriend. Sure he’s smokin’ but he feels less than because he is dyslexic and
it takes him a little longer to learn things. He has a heart of gold and a curiosity
for new things.
Daphne has come a long way in finding herself and raising her
daughter. Lula is so smart Boomer could be intimidated but she is a little girl
and he reminds her of that and encourages her to be more than her brain.
I loved this sweet and sexy story.
