Blurb:

Can he convince her to forgive him while avoiding falling in love with her?

Bella Cotton didn’t rescuing. She was fine with being the family disappointment, the knot-like-the others bridesmaid, fine with them all forgetting her birthday… But when the impossibly hot dude at the bar dared her to take him as her fake date to her sister’s wedding the next day? Well yeah, she was tempted to do for more than have him at her side tomorrow – she’d have him every which way tonight!

But next morning he’d gone – had all he wanted and ditched her before the fake date bit!

Now she’s collided with him again in the most humiliating circumstance and it turns out he isn’t an every day klutz like her. He’s some sort of billionaire genius and he wants to ‘rescue’ her all over again?

Tech titan Owen Hughes didn’t mean to hide his identity fro the gorgeous woman he met that night on Waiheke island. He also didn’t mean to leave her so soon. But business always comes first for him. It has to.

Still, letting her down had left him with a bad feeling. Now the sweetheart seems to be in another spot of bother and he’s only too happy to help out. That’s if she’ll let him. And this time he’ll make his position clear: Pleasure? Yes. Permanent? Never.

At least that’s what he thinks…

One click for a badluck butterfingers heroine, comfort food, steamy banter, a hero fighting hard to hide his heart, wine spillage, a car named Bubbles, seriously hot bathroom stuff, a plush soft toy tiger, and an ending that will make your heart soar.

Fans of Jill Shalvis, Lucy Score and Megan Quinn will love this happily ever after from USA Today Bestselling author Natalie Anderson.

Steamy romance that’ll make you smile, and sigh.

My Review:

It’s a truly hot steamy romance that melted me from the beginning. Bella and Owen’s first encounter is in the bar where Bella’s big family stays for her sister’s wedding. She has low self esteem because of her perfect family’s propositions. She thinks that she is a failure in the family but she has a great fondness for being an entertainer as a fairy in children’s party. When Owen sees Bella steps in the bar, he is sexually intrigued and can’t let her go and so they start flirting, bantering and entertaining one another until they have one-night stand.

Despite the no string relation and their strong mutual desire, both misinterpret the next morning situation until Bella decisively takes over her life to be independent and relies on no one. Well I loved how their relation works contrarily, Owen tenderly cares for Bella and is willing to help whatever she needs yet Bella is determined to be independent and will not, let anyone even Owen, help her. After denial and resistance, they succumb finally to their hot-temporary-relation.

It’s a splendidly entertaining romance which has strong sizzling sexual tension from the beginning then I was truly impressed with wonderful and uplifting characters at the end, and indeed with its ending! Thank you, Natalie Anderson, for this ARC which I voluntary reviewed.
