Now Flora Ferrari is renowned for her insta love stories but this is REALLY fast and I would have loved it to be a bit longer [but I did love the epilogues]! ED lets his best friend, Travis, from Delta Force, and 20 years fellow comrade in arms who has saved his life stay in his guest cottage when he retires. Now Travis is damaged as he describes himself but is determined to work through them. He’s bought himself a horse that’s beautiful but it’s not what he really, really needs. What he really needs is Ed’s young daughter, Maria. Maria is a beautiful; young woman who is preparing to start studying to be a vet but she also knows what she wants and it isn’t some pimply young man. Oh no! For Maria, she wants a worldly older man with experience who will protect, support and love her. Travis fits the bill and then some – he’s huge and she feels so tiny next to him and so protected plus she thinks he is so s@xy too and she wants to give him her all. But how will her Dad react?? The steam heat rating on this story has to be hitting the ceiling – particularly in the kitchen. So ensure that your fans/ac are in fully functioning order and set to max cool as you’re going to need it. Another great story that I fully support. I received a reader’s copy of this book and voluntarily leave my honest opinion of it here. Definitely recommended
