Mackenzie Hernadez is a basic jeans and t-shirt kind of girl, always wearing her hair up in a simple ponytail. She is beautiful but simply does not care about those types of things, preferring instead to concentrate on the job she loves. She is the groundskeeper for the Seattle Lumberjacks, it is up to her to make sure the grass is perfect and the flowers beautiful.Bruce "Bruiser" Mackey is the teams star running back. He is also a successful model and donates all of these earnings anonymously to a children's burn charity. This charity is dear to him because of the guilt he holds about his twin brother dying as a teenager.The Lumberjacks are giving away the annual scholarship to a deserving employee and Mac is hoping that is will be going to her. In order to have a chance she needs to attend a black tie BBQ, to do this she will need both a makeover and a date. Bruiser agrees to take his "friend" to the BBQ and many of the wives get together for the makeover.The only problem is, Mac has had a secret crush on Bruiser for years. However, Bruiser's friend Brett has a crush on Mac. This is getting complicated. To further throw a wrench into anything Mac has to spend all her spare time helping her dad search for her brother who disappeared three years ago. Dad is obsessed with finding out what happened to him.What a transformation in Mac, she is hot, all the guys are noticing her, as well as the company bitch Veronica who unfortunately controls the scholarship. Sparks fly between Mac and Bruiser.  Both of them are holding on to much emotional baggage. Is it possible for the simple girl to get the georgous play boy. Will he let go of his grief and allow himself the chance to love someone, does he even deserve to be happy?The chemistry was hot, the sex scenes were perfect, with just enough kink in them.  This story was an easy read. It also had a good deal of intrigue to keep things interesting and I felt it was a well rounded story. I loved that both of them had real issues that they were dealing with and it was interesting to see them try to determine that they each deserved to be happy. The story surrounding her brother's disappearance was definately heartbreaking and awesomely written. Excellent job.Reviewed by Monica*Free copy provided for honest reviewfor more reviews visit welovekink(dot)com
