Don’t Come Around Here: A Bad Boy Next Door Romance by Eva Luxe, Juliana Conners

  A Second Chance At Love?

This is the newest in the “Don’t” series by Eva Luxe and Juliana Conners.  I have enjoyed reading books written by this pairing of terrific authors before and I enjoy their writing styles that complement one another and make for flowing stories that transport you to the worlds of the characters in the book and their descriptions are so well defined that I can almost ‘picture’ what they look like and their personalities within the books.  In this one, we meet Brad and Carly. who were high school sweethearts and very much in love until her father went ballistic and dragged Carly form Brad and his mum’s home. I’m just surprised that they didn’t call the police on the man as he wasn’t behaving rationally. Anyway, because of her father’s threats they have to keep away from each other.  he goes off and becomes has a very successful sporting career which is what he wanted and Carly goes to college.  Six years go by and they both happen to be in town at the same time. As soon as they see each other, they realise that their feelings haven’t changed and they are now mature enough to ‘fight’ for their love. But to make their romance easier they keep it low key. However, the press find out that Brad is home and they camp outside his home.  What’s now going to happen to their possible HEA?  I did like how Brad wasn’t just a womanising jock and he took responsibility for himself and his actions and was ready to prove to Carly how deep his love for her is and how he will do anything to give them a chance at happiness. There is plenty of hot sizzling intimate scenes that you will need to have your fans at the ready to switch to maximum force as they are STEAMING!  I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.  However, as I loved the story so much, I bought my own copy and am now enjoying the bonus material included!  So get yourself a copy of this and enjoy reading their journey to a possible HEA!

DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED
