Review Blitz | Holding You Close (Ex-Con #4, Noah & Katie #2) by Kennedy Fox → 4 Stars
TITLE: Holding You Close
SERIES: Noah & Katie Duet #2 AUTHOR: Kennedy Fox
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
TROPES: Small Town / Friends to Lovers
RELEASE DATE: March 16th, 2021
After serving a decade long prison sentence for an accident that resulted in my husband’s death, Noah Reid returns. Even if he was my childhood best friend and the first man I secretly loved, I refuse to make it easy for him. But the heart never forgets and those old repressed feelings quickly bubble to the surface.
Loving him is a dangerous game but one I’m willing to play.
Flirting leads to falling between the sheets, and I’m forced to deal with the guilt of what we’re doing. Viciousness towards Noah runs rampant and while revenge trickles through the streets of Lawton Ridge, I realize there’s more on the line than just my heart. While I’m afraid that my son and I will be caught in the crossfire of those who want to hurt Noah, I can’t walk away.
Secrets are revealed and revelations are made, but losing him again isn’t an option—especially since I’m pregnant.
** HOLDING YOU CLOSE is a slow burn, angsty friends to lovers romance with lots of small-town, Southern drama. It's book 2 in the Noah & Katie duet and must be read in order. **
⭐️ 4 "Always Meant To Be" Stars ⭐️
When Holding You Close landed on my kindle, I was so excited to finally get to read the continuation of Noah And Katie’s lovely story! After the tragic conclusion of Pushing You Away, I needed answers and I finally got them and so much more in this second novel.
The relationship between Noah and Katie is still as beautiful and sweet as it was in the first book! Their love is blossoming beautifully with some obstacles in the way of their happily ever after, but they don’t let go of their faith in each other. They trust in their feelings to surpass every bump in the road. It’s quite gorgeous to witness that kind of commitment. I enjoyed every single moment they shared from sweet and humorous, to highly steamy and emotional.
All the gang of Lawton Ridge kept me entertained with their togetherness. They’re a supportive group of friends that can bring the humor too! I loved them!
Kennedy Fox signed another incredible story balancing between adorable, scorching hot and suspenseful moments! This read was engaging from start to finish! Now that another couple got his HEA, I really can’t wait for Everleigh’s duet! I adored the girl since the start of the series and I’m excited at the prospect of seeing her finally fall in love.
