This was my first book by this author and I can guarantee you it won't be my last. As this was book 3,  I'm off to read the first 2 books in the Maverick Montana series, then no doubt  re-read this book for the full experience. But that said, it can be read as a stand alone book.I admit to nearly inhaling this book. The only thing that stopped me was I had to work. It was such a fun, sexy read and was a story that captured me from the start. I loved Colton and Melanie. The friends to more is one of my favourite tropes and the author does this with flair.Throw in Colton's brothers, some wonderful townspeople, a town bet with a mystery person running it and one of the best mothers I've read in a while and you have a story that will suck you in and won't let go till you are done.When Colton comes home from his studies, he finds his best friend Melanie working 3 jobs and running herself into the ground. He doesn't understand why she won't ask for help.What he doesn't know and Melanie doesn't want him to know is that she is fighting her body and is in a race to have a baby. It doesn't come cheap and this is why she's working extra jobs. Anything so she can fulfil her dreams.But when the long standing friendly bickering between the two friends take a surprising turn, Colt finds himself seeing his long time friend in a new light. Then when Colt finds out about Melanie's problem, he steps in and offers to help. This leads to many funny situations and some very hot times.The problems both are facing, Colt with his business dealings and Melanie with her health issues and dramas with their other best friend Hawk are sure to strain what could be a blossoming relationship, but how these two deal with it is heartwarming. Especially the heart to hearts they have with their loved ones, who can see they are perfect for each other, even if they can't.What happens when friends fall in love and do so in front of the whole town who is betting on when it happens?This is the type of book you want to read if are looking for something to out you in a good mood. It had some laugh out loud moments, lots of warmth and characters you want to be real.This author has a new fan in me and I am crossing my fingers for a book for Hawk in the near future. We need his story.This book was supplied by the publisher for an honest review.
