Blurb

Wolf Wayburn is the devil in an Armani suit with the body of a Greek god.  He thinks I’m just a small-town girl who he can intimidate—but I never back down from a fight.

The first time we met, he cut me off at a gas station

So, I flashed him the bird and mocked his family jewels.

The second time we met, he tried to get me fired.

He took his shot—and he missed.

At least for now.

Wolf Wayburn was an ex-Navy SEAL with an attitude.

But it would take a lot more than the big, bad Wolf to scare me off.

I had ninety days to win the man over.

To convince him that I was the right person for the job.

But spending endless amounts of time with him proved more challenging than I’d expected.

He was stubborn and broody and charming and sexy—all at the same time.

I despised him as much as I craved him.

We taunted and teased and terrorized one another for weeks.

The first time he dropped to his knees, it was to search me for a weapon.

The second time… it was an altogether different story.

I never planned to fall for the enemy.

Because I knew it was easier to hate Wolf Wayburn than to love him.

Review

“I’m tired of fighting this.”
“I thought you loved to fight?”

5 fierce and passionate stars!

The final book in the Honey Mountain series, this is a sensationally fun and sexy enemies-to-lovers romance with blistering chemistry and banter and a gorgeously swoony love story. I loved it!

Dylan Thomas is the last of five sisters to have a book in this series. She is the loud one, the boisterous, confident, take-no-crap, say-it-like-it-is ballbuster, and she’s been hilarious as a side character in her sister’s stories. Finally getting the chance to get inside of her head and experience her love story was even better than I thought it would be.

As a newly graduated lawyer, Dylan has just scored a job with the local NHL team. It’s the job of a lifetime, but she immediately clashes with her new boss, Wolfgang Wayburn, soon to take over as owner of the team, and a grouchy, arrogant ex-SEAL who gives her 90 days to prove herself or else she’ll lose her job. They are quickly thrown into working very closely together, and it’s clear that their initial interactions are just the tip of the iceberg, these two hate each other, and they hold nothing back in sharing their feelings.

Of course, the man didn’t laugh in a normal way. It was this angry, dismissive laugh – and it pissed me off. “Could you stop with the arrogant laugh. Either laugh correctly or don’t laugh at all. It’s very condescending, and I don’t respond well to that.”

Everything about each other pisses them off, and it’s so entertaining watching them constantly bicker. Making it even better, Dylan is given the team’s apartment to live in – right next door to Wolf. Making it even better again… the more time they spend together, they develop a completely unwanted attraction that makes them even angrier at each other.

She wore no makeup and managed to be completely fucking gorgeous with zero effort. That shit pissed me off because I didn’t want to be attracted to her.

The man oozed BDE.
But he’d met his match.
Because we both had big dick energy.
And I would not back down, even if he was the sexiest man I’d ever laid eyes on.

It’s a fantastic set up absolutely sizzling with sexual tension, and it’s only a matter of time before all of that chemistry leads to the blisteringly hot encounter that we’ve been desperately waiting for.

“Stop fucking talking, Minx.” His face was so close to mine, his warm breath tickled my cheek as anger radiated from his body.
“Don’t tell me what to do, you pompous ass.” I shoved at his chest as he crowded my space.
“I’m your fucking boss,” he growled. His hand moved to my cheek, and he held it there.
… He used the pad of his thumb and traced along my bottom lip. “You’re so fucking aggravating. So far under my skin, I can’t fucking see straight.”

All of that hate translates into steamy and intense sexy time and Wolf and Dylan are on fire together! They continue to fight and antagonise each other, but in private they take out all of that anger on each other, and it’s absolutely sizzling!

The dirty talk. The banter. The arguing. The attraction.
The sex.
I’d never enjoyed hating someone so much.

The unexpected shift from enemies-with-benefits to more is natural and effortless. Things just organically change between them, and I loved watching them fall into something that neither of them wanted or expected. They just go with it, following their feelings and doing what feels right, and I loved every single moment of it!

I love Wolf and Dylan together so much! Their big, loud personalities work so well together, and they are so entertaining together. Funny, bold, confident and almost larger-than-life, everything between them is strong and intense, and it’s a joy to watch as they fall hard for each other.

“We love big. We fight hard. And we just work. I’m not certain about a lot of things in this life, but I’m certain about you. About us.”

But neither of them ever planned on feelings, and when life throws them a curveball, they’ll have to trust each other like never before to get their happy ending.

“I’m not a man who gives my heart away Dylan. And maybe that’s because it always belonged to you, even before I met you. But it’s yours. Love me. Hate me. It doesn’t matter. We belong together.”

This is such a gorgeous story. It’s fun, sexy, full of snark and fantastic banter, and a gorgeous love story that develops beautifully and naturally. Of course, Dylan’s sisters and their partners are all a bit part of the action, and Wolf’s family make a surprising and very welcome addition to the story. There are moments in this book that had me laughing out loud watching Dylan be Dylan around a whole new bunch of people. So much fun!

There’s an epilogue which finishes the story beautifully, and a bonus chapter available which provides great closure for all of the Thomas sisters. I’m so grateful that we’re getting a spin-off series featuring the girls’ cousins, so we’ll get to see a bit more of this crew yet. I’ve loved this series and am not quite ready to let it go just yet.

I loved this book so much – 5 stars!
