Oh, did I mention he's also my new client... and fake boyfriend?
The commission from working with him is a key to my new life -- it's worth putting up with the cocky athlete. The problem is that my past is dark, and when Kyle sees the bruises, he thinks he can save me.
Fake-dating each other was supposed to be for my safety.
But I can't help thinking my heart is more at risk now than ever before.

In Ponderosa Springs, this version of Romeo and Juliet isn’t a tragedy. It’s war. Jude Sinclair is West Trinity Falls’ favorite exiled loner. Cocky. Insufferably hot. Family foe. Raised across the tracks in a rival town, he reeks of trouble. Which is the one thing I’ve always had a problem avoiding and now that he’s just down the hall, it’s harder to resist the pull. My father made one rule when Jude moved in, never trust a Sinclair. The last thing I need is for my new foster brother to make me question my loyalty with his filthy smirks and poet tongue.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

I had an early morning and the season was starting soon. But when she threatened me with boy band karaoke, I couldn't help myself. I went. The stars aligned. I have never felt more alive or wanted anyone more than I want her.

Still married. Those words change everything. Now my should-be ex-husband, Ramsey Stockton, the former pro football star turned felon and hero who left this town—and me—behind years ago, is at my door offering me a deal with the devil. If I let him stay and play his wife again for ninety days, he’ll give me a quiet divorce and his family ranch—the one my inn is on. When I scoff at the idea, he offers a million-dollar bonus to help my business float through this rough patch, but only if I’m his.

Story2
Daughter of Rosebrook Falls' most powerful household Juliette Calloway falls in impossible love with the heir to the empire of her family's sworn enemy, Roman Montgomery.
Written by: Emily McIntire
It always blows my mind when the MMCs completely take you by surprise by exposing their history or trauma and show you the real person behind the mask/public persona. That's exactly what we get from Kyle in the fifth installment of the Red Zone Rivals.
THIS MAN IS OBSESSED. and as a result, so am I.
This book reads a little insta-lovey, BUT I will almost always give that a pass when it's a second chance romance. You know they've had feelings for one another before, so it's easier to believe they would fall back into that quickly.
I really loved this book and thought it was a great way to round out this series.
*spoilers ahead*
I'm not an accidental pregnancy girlie, but oh my god I did not mind that this was accidental pregnancy at all! I think it's because they were both genuinely so excited to be parents, the fact that she is a single mom and therefore has a child already, and that this is second chance. ESPECIALLY given how devastated Kyle is to find out the truth about their past. ughhhhhh it was just very good. very very good. I hate when the unexpected child becomes a point of conflict and there isn't even a flicker of doubt in either of them.
kyle? is that you?
