Although I thought Max Bowen's story would be the next book from this author, it appears she decided to write about Mike (who featured in Cole's story) and this is a new series about the OGs (Original Grandmas!). However, Max does feature.When Kyra was 16, she began a relationship with her friend Mike. Mike was 20, he had been waiting for Kyra to grow up before dating her but still felt he was too old for her. However, they fell in love and dated for 5 years, living together for 3 of those. When Kyra was 21 she wanted to further her career as a dancer and go and live on a Cruise Ship for 10 months. Not wanting to lose her Mike proposed but Kyra turned him down.Fast forward 7 years and a lot has happened. Kyra has been married and divorced and has an adorable six year old daughter called Sam. Due to financial difficulties she has had to move back to her hometown of Alden but that means seeing Mike again. They have managed to avoid each other for a month or so, that is until the OGs interfere and conspire to bring these two together. We then learn of all the upset and misunderstandings that went on between Mike and Kyra. Once this is resolved, they begin a sort of relationship (f buddies so to speak!) because Kyra is concerned about her daughter growing close to Mike when Kyra does not foresee staying in Alden.The sex scenes are hot and steamy as usual from this author but also very descriptive! Be warned that if you don't like the thought of sex during a menstrual cycle then this happens between Kyra and Mike. I'm not a prude, but I did find myself cringing a bit and some of it was a bit TMi for my tastes! Anal sex is also a feature. This author knows her stuff and there is a lot of sex between this couple!I loved Mike and Kyra. Mike is an alpha male. He is demanding in the bedroom but very caring towards Kyra and her daughter. However, due to the past, he feels vulnerable and doesn't want to lose control around Kyra. Their relationship becomes public and they grow closer. They go through some minor ups and downs but it's clear theirs is a true love story and I enjoyed reading it. I actually preferred this book to the two previous Bowen Brothers books.The OGs are amusing (the text messages!) and I look forward to the next book and their next 'victim'!
