The third book in The Law of Opposites Attract series, this is Owen’s book, a fun, sweet, sexy and surprising romance when a couple unexpectedly fall for each other after a one-night stand.

Owen is one of five best friends that grew up together. When one tragically died, the remaining four took the inheritance he left them and bought an apartment building in New York which they live in and manage together. But he gets the shock of his life when he’s about to evict one of his tenants, only to discover Devyn, the woman with who he shared a blistering one night stand with.

Devyn is from LA and is in New York temporarily to look after her younger siblings (previously known as “Frick and Frack”, two trouble-causing teens who have wreaked havoc on the building in previous books). Their mother has taken off and they don’t know where she is or when she’s returning, so Devyn has stepped in to care for the kids until they can track her down. She’s frazzled by the situation, and dealing with a tricky break up back home, and she spent one night out on her own to blow off some steam. How awkward that the man who rocked her world is her new landlord.

It’s a fun set-up, and being the good guy that he is, Owen steps in to help Devyn with her situation. Though they’re both admittedly attracted to each other, Devyn is not in a position to start a relationship, so they agree to be friends, but Owen is with Devyn every step of the way as she tries to find her mother while wrangling her siblings. It’s entertaining, and Owen stole my heart with his dedication to be there for Devyn.

The chemistry is there from the very beginning, and the more time they spend together, they grow closer and closer, and the sexual tension builds until they can’t resist anymore. They agree to a no-strings friends-with-benefits arrangement which is hot and steamy, and just the beginning for them, because despite their best intentions, they’re falling wildly for each other.

There are a number of twists in Owen and Devyn’s story, and I was hooked as it all played out. I was right there with both of them as they deal with the challenges of their complex situation, and felt so much for them. Through it all, Owen is a dream, holding nothing back from Devyn, letting her know how he feels and committing himself completely, and I fell so hard for him!

Characters from the previous books all appear, and I loved watching them all rally around to support both Owen and Devyn as they figure everything out. The dynamics between the group are gorgeous – lots of teasing and banter between the boys, and the girls are fabulously fun and supportive.

It’s a gorgeous story, and I loved watching Owen and Devyn get their HEA.

4 stars.
