Things We Never Got Over
Summary
Bearded, bad-boy barber Knox prefers to live his life the way he takes his coffee: Alone. Unless you count his basset hound, Waylon.
Knox doesn’t tolerate drama, even when it comes in the form of a stranded runaway bride.
Naomi wasn’t just running away from her wedding. She was riding to the rescue of her estranged twin to Knockemout, Virginia, a rough-around-the-edges town where disputes are settled the old-fashioned way…with fists and beer. Usually in that order.
Too bad for Naomi her evil twin hasn’t changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi’s car and cash, Tina leaves her with something unexpected. The niece Naomi didn’t know she had. Now she’s stuck in town with no car, no job, no plan, and no home with an 11-year-old going on thirty to take care of.
There’s a reason Knox doesn’t do complications or high-maintenance women, especially not the romantic ones. But since Naomi’s life imploded right in front of him, the least he can do is help her out of her jam. And just as soon as she stops getting into new trouble he can leave her alone and get back to his peaceful, solitary life.
At least, that’s the plan until the trouble turns to real danger.
Review
I can’t stop thinking about this book after I finished! It was so good! Taking place in a small town is always the best set up for a romance in my opinion! There are also identical twins (😉) which plays a role right as the book starts because there is a good twin/bad twin thing going on. I loved how we also got a little grumpy/sunshine in this one. Knox is my fav. I always like a tough guy who softens enough for the woman he loves. You know I love a good suspense/thrill and we even get a few suspenseful moments toward the end. This is a long one but I still think it was a pretty quick read. The second book in this series comes out on February 21st and it is called Things We Hide from the Light. Both books are included with Kindle Unlimited, too!
