I never imagined my new roommate would be the man I’d actually fall for. Though I don’t get close to the people I sleep with, he’s been my exception. Archer acts emotionally unavailable while he focuses on starting over, but our connection is too strong to ignore.
He’s rugged on the outside and sweet on the inside—the opposite of my usual type. I see the way his eyes gaze up and down my body, making it harder to keep my feelings in check. Knocking down his walls is no easy task, especially with my brother interfering, but I refuse to give up.
When lines are crossed and emotions bubble over, trouble finds us. We both have pasts that have leaked into our present—now I’m scared it’ll destroy the one secret we’ve been keeping.
⭐️ 5 Stars ⭐️
Wanting You Close started right where the previous book abruptly ended. I was really eager to get some answers and this sequel didn't disapoint in the least!
The romance between Everleigh and Archer was even more stunning with a deep connection I could feel across the pages. This couple was so in sync in everything and so perfectly balanced. It was magnificent to watch their every interactions between humor, sass, passion and support! Those two shared some pretty steamy moments as well as more profound ones.
"𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒉𝒂𝒔 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒉𝒐𝒘 𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒐𝒇 𝒚𝒐𝒖."
I liked how Archer was more open and embraced his new life with his woman. He was so protective, thoughtful and sweet, and an alpha in the bedroom. He certainly didn't shy away from declaring his love to Everleigh time and time again. I enjoyed how Everleigh was also changed by their relationship. She was still lively and a little over the top at time, but she also knew Archer was her future and hold tighly to him.
This second installment of their duet was high on suspense with an intrigue that kept putting obstacles in the way of their happily ever after. It was a twist after another and kept me glued to my kindle. Kennedy Fox concluded the Lawton Ridge Series on a bang with this fantastic novel. I'll certainly miss all these amazing characters that made the series so addictive!
