Book Summary
Cottonbloom is the perfect place for starting over, finding your way back home--and falling head over heels. . . Ella Boudreaux has a lot to prove to her family, friends, and foes--and to herself. So when her marriage ends she decides to invest her energy and money into a place that brings back some of Ella's happiest memories: the Abbott brothers' garage. Maybe, if she puts her mind to it, she can teach skeptical, stubborn Mack Abbott how to make the business a true success. Which would be a lot easier if the hunky mechanic didn't make her motor run quite so fast...and hot. Mack was furious when his brother, Ford, sold his share of the business. He's in no rush to team up with a wealthy divorcee who shows up to the garage in stilettos--and the longest, sexiest legs he's seen in forever. But Ella's grit and determination won't quit...and soon Mack can see that she's been down a few rough roads herself. Neither Mack nor Ella can deny the fierce attraction that's revving up between them. Could it be that true love has been in the backseat all along...and they've finally found the key?
My Review
I enjoy reading small-town romances and the Cottonbloom series is just what that is. I've enjoyed reading the Abbot brother's stories and this time it's Mack's turn. When Ella buys a share of the Abbot brothers garage Mack is anything but a happy camper. Ella doesn't exactly like or trust Mack either but who can blame her. Coming out of a non-trustworthy marriage and abusive husband who can blame her for not trusting men or wanting to be involved with them. Mack has a lot of baggage he needs to sort through as well. What starts out for them as physical attraction on both their parts becomes a mutual trust and respect as they get deeper into a relationship. I enjoyed seeing the softer side of Mack as he brought out the best in Ella. I enjoyed seeing the characters in previous books brought back in this book and even the sweet dog, River. Very enjoyable book and I look forward to reading more books in this series. Pub Date 31 Jul 2018 | I was given a complimentary copy of this book from St. Martin's Press through NetGalley.
