Your Trainer Says Hi!
Best friend extraordinaire, Nadine Garrison, is back for book two, but she’s got her own problems this time.
Sure, in retrospect, going into business with some guy I’d only been dating for six months sounds impulsive.
Okay, it was impulsive, but it was a good opportunity, and Heath put in as much money as I did. We were equal partners. Until he made an unauthorized withdrawal.
It’s not like he absconded to another country with the money. No, he sunk every dime into a foolproof investment. In my defense, I was vulnerable when we met, and Heath was only supposed to be my rebound guy. I never dreamed I’d have to financially rebound from him.
So now, while he’s busy hawking snake oil, trying to grow his downline, I’m out here just trying to maintain my sanity, stay on top of my game for my sales job, and keep our juice bar afloat.
But there’s always time for vengeance. Heath stole my money; I’ll take his beloved personal trainer. It’s a start.
Wick puts my body through the wringer, in the gym and out, but he’s so not my type. His storm-cloud eyes might see right through me, and his filthy mouth definitely takes my mind off my troubles for a while, but there is not a more arrogant man in the world. Like I said, so not my type. So, why do I keep seeing him?

Your Trainer Says Hi! started out pretty good but quickly fell flat for me. I was looking forward to Nadine's story because I really liked her in Your Boss Says Hi! but unfortunately her story wasn't as good. If we based our stars on characters I would give this one 5 stars for Wick, I loved him. He was such as great character and he made the story worth it. Nadine was annoying and an idiot and I couldn't wait to be done with this story. Overall, I didn't like this one but I like this author and I would read another book.

I love a book with a message
”Say NO to MLMs” 🙏
How do I end up loving each and every book?! It doesn’t seem possible but I swear, Indie Sparks has that magic touch when it comes to her writing that I adore!
First, as a Texan, one who has lived in Dallas and Houston, this book hit literally so close to home with the scenes about the traffic or the yet again stolen monkeys from the Dallas Zoo. They were so funny and relatable it hurt 🤣🤣.
The humor was non-stop. I’m extremely jealous that people can be naturally this funny 💅. Imma need to be bffs with this author but I’ll settle for reading everything she ever publishes 🥰.
Nadine (FMC) was just as amazing in this as I expected her to be from when she was introduced in Your Boss Says Hi! (10/10 recommend). I don’t throw amazing out lightly; she was strong, intelligent, assertive, sexy, and firm in her boundaries. I love being able to look up to FMCs in books and go, yes, I want to, or continue to, be like her. She’s powerful.
Wick (MMC) was arrogant but we loved him! We couldn’t not because he pushed Nadine to be the best person she could be while respecting her boundaries and teaching her to respect his! Ugh 😍. They were such a team, even though it might not be seen like that on the surface.
The steam is steamin’ y’all 🥵. We got hot tub shenanigans galore with some kink thrown in here and there 😏. ‘Twas perfection. Sigh, I’m reminiscing and now I wanna reread.
This lived up to and surpassed all my expectations and I cannot wait to read what’s to come! 🤩

Note: I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Triggers: financial fraud of sorts, pranks, sports injuries.
This was an interesting novel. Up to a certain point.
At first, I was full on applauding the heroine's badassery even if she makes too many terrible decisions, her friendship with Oakley, and then her eventual relationship with her trainer.
But I think her relationship with her trainer, and her handling of her financial mistakes..irked me to no end at times.
Like who owns a business in six months with someone they barely know? It's always a bad business move, even if someone isn't in business to know that.
Secondly, she should've registered a restraining order against her financial fraud of a partner. But she never does.
I guess canoodling with the trainer can make you forget things.
But I did love the trainer, he was too much of a sweetheart for the heroine, and at the end, I honestly they deserved other people, rather than each other. Specially the trainer.
Either way, it was a reasonable attempt in this romantic scene. Still an interesting way for me to pass time I suppose.
Until the next read,
TMR

I’ve enjoyed quite of few of Indie’s books and this one was a very cute and funny story. It threw me off a little that I felt like this wasn’t her usual story telling style. Once I wrapped my head around it I got more into the story.
Nadine has been metaphorically sucker punched by her boyfriend going behind her back with an MLM (I love an anti MLM story) and without giving too much away she ends up in close proximity with Wick, her now ex’s trainer.
“Boss bitch. Bad bitch. Head bitch in charge. The bitch who kicked your sorry ass to the curb!”
What I thought would be a hot romp story ended up being sexy but a lot more about the experience of a healthy relationship and a stable grown up man.
However two of those sexy scenes involved some fun a fresh ideas of mutual masturbation competitions and hide and screw games. I loved how playful the characters were and the ending was a sweet as cake 😉🥳🎂
My only gripe was the harassment from the ex, there were times I felt like he was escalating and becoming abusive/threatening without any consequences however I guess that’s the issue in reality. It’s not against the law until they actually physically hurt you.
HEA
No cheating
Funny
Slight daddy kink
No physical abuse or attack

4.5 ⭐ Spice: 3.5/5 Strong Language: 3/5. Characters: 4.5/5 Plot: 4.5/5 Witty Banter: 5/5
Triggers: Mental Health, K!nk, Mental Manipulation by Secondary Character, Body Image Struggles, Extremely Annoying Ex (sometimes these guys deserve a label)
Your Trainer Says Hi is a standalone romantic comedy. It is book two in the Vengeful Vixens series. These books may be read in any order but the characters do crossover (thank you!) and follow a timeline.
Nadine, our ride or d!e bestie from Your Boss Says Hi, gets her own well deserved book here. Her life is seemingly going great until she receives a shocking phone call. Her now very EX boyfriend and business partner has betrayed her and their future. Not one to take anything sitting down, Nadine goes about handling her shizz and picking up the pieces.
Step One: Break Her Ex..I mean break up with her ex. Yeah, that's it.
Step Two: Rescue The Business.
Step Three: Revenge Screw The Trainer He's Obsessed With
Step Four: Repeat Step Three just to make sure you do it correctly. For science.
Wick is a personal trainer by day and Daddy Arrogant A$$ by night. Of course, I loved him. He was shockingly NICE and clean cut but ticked ALL the alpha, book boyfriend boxes. The man can deliver with witty banter and has stamina. Swoon.
Nadine and Wick must traverse the struggles of a new relationship while dealing with the constant irritation of her swindling ex. We get reappearances by my favorite characters from book one. Oakley and Nadine's friendship is chef's kiss and more female stories should be written with this. Marlise is amazing and I am in complete love with Garth (definitely deserves his own book).
This was a fun, flirty read. I can't recommend Indie Sparks or her books enough. Do yourself a favor and start reading one today.

A totally unexpected read in the best way! I was expecting a cocky, arrogant MMC, but instead we got a total cinnamon roll! Yeah, he could be hawt as heck and dirty as all get up, but you just had to love him!
Great character development, an amusing plot and steamy as all getup! This Smüt Glütton is one satisfied camper!
Thanks to Indie for the early copy for review.

Your Trainer Says Hi! is Book Two in the Vengeful Vixens Series. The story centers around Nadine who has recently opened up a juice bar with her boyfriend of six months, Heath. When Heath withdraws all of the money from their business account to invest in a sure-fire MLM scam, Nadine is both devastated and furious. She tells Heath that he is to pay all of the money back but in the meantime, she figures that she will take over his pre-paid personal training sessions as partial revenge for his treacherous act. Nadine refuses to allow her ex to break her and decides that she needs to bounce back on her feet right away.
Nadine’s only intention when going to see Heath’s personal trainer is to take away his beloved trainer from him. However, when she sees Wick her body betrays her with other intentions. Trying to shrug off the attraction she tells herself that she is only there for the workouts. It seems that not only does Wick notice that Nadine is attracted to him, but he enjoys the affect he has on Nadine. The two of them exchange sexy banter back and forth as Wick puts Nadine’s body through the wringer in the gym. When he invites her back to his place to soak and relax her muscles in his hot tub the sexual tension builds and before long Wick is putting Nadine’s body through the wringer again.
I loved this book and was hooked from the first few pages. I could not stop laughing out loud at the witty banter and jokes between Nadine and her BFF Oakley. I laughed so hard that the tears started when I read the scene where Nadine confronts her ex, Heath, about the MLM scam he invested in. My husband actually looked at me and asked me what was so funny, so I read a few pages to him. The scenes were so vividly described that I felt as though I was watching a movie as the scenes leaped off the pages.
The characters were relatable and lovable. Seriously, the friendship between Nadine and Oakley was epic. The jokes they cracked kept me in stitches. Oakley was there to act as a calming agent for Nadine when she needed it and help her pick up the pieces of a broken relationship. Heath was a character that you loved to hate because he was such a dimbulb and showed no remorse over his actions. Wick seemed like an arrogant jerk but ended up being a sweetheart. Nadine was smart, feisty, and unstoppable no matter what life threw at her. This book had wise-cracking friends, witty banter, revenge plots, betrayal, sexual tension, passion, unexpected romance, BFFs, and manipulation.

Your Trainer Says Hi! is the second book in the Vengeful Vixens series by Indie Sparks. Ms. Sparks is a new-to-me author, so I really didn’t know what to expect from one of her stories. But, I love a fun read and this looked like it could deliver all that and more.
It proved to be a very entertaining RomCom with so much to keep me entertain from beginning to end. This is a humorous contemporary romance with a revenge plot, finding love unexpectedly, opposites attract, chemistry, spice, dirty talk, self-doubts/self-esteem issues, banter, antics, friendship, ex issues, alpha-male type MC, and sizzling encounters. The book has got some serious themes running through the storyline that may prove to be a trigger for some, such as: mental health issues, manipulation, body image concerns, and self-esteem issues.
When Nade is betrayed and her life is turned upside down, she decides the best course of action is one of REVENGE. And so the fun begins….
I need to go back and read Book #1 now, as we get to meet Oakley who is Nadine’s BFF and apparently Oakley is the mc in “Your Boss Says Hi!- Book #1- so I just have to read what happened there. These two crack me up, and their friendship and antics are epic! I loved that even though this story focuses on Nadine and Wick, we get to meet/catch up with the mc’s from book one, too. But I digress-…. OMG- Heath, what a douchecanoe!! Like really!!! I sooo wanted to throttle him for Nadine lol. Wick on the other hand- one word…. SWOON!
Can’t get enough of this series… I’m off to devour the first book but also need the next instalment- STAT!
Happy Reading…
Thank you, Indie Sparks!

I knew Nadine would be amazing and this one was Perfection!! If you love laughs and a whole lot of spicy naughty moments, then this is A Must Read!!!
This author is my one click for laughs and spice because she never fails to bring them both, and I never fail to smile after reading her books. If you read Your Boss Says Hi, then you met Nadine briefly before. Now if you haven't read that book I definitely suggest you read it because it's amazing also, and you get a feel not just for Nadine, but the special friendship her Oakley have, and you can appreciate it in all its glory this time around also. With a line like this you know you have a to read it now:
"𝙃𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙘𝙠 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧 𝙞𝙣 𝙢𝙮 𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙡𝙖𝙪𝙣𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙙 𝙢𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛**𝙠-𝙢𝙚-𝙙𝙖𝙙𝙙𝙮 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙤𝙨𝙥𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚."
Nadine and Wick are the perfect opposites attract couple. Nadine is a go getter with a takes no prisoner attitude with her work. She is seen as the wise and rational person not so much of a risk taker, but she ends up in a business partnership with her soon to be ex once she finds him taking money to invest in a pyramid scheme. She does what every sane person would do she takes steps to figure out how to handle the finances, and gives her ex a verbal beating and might also take his training sessions with his personal trainer as a bit of revenge. One thing Nadine didn't count on was Wick being more than some meathead jock at the gym. He's domineering, sweet, and has a filthy mouth that will set your panties ablaze.
Wick has fast become one of my favorite male characters by this author. I loved him from the start with his cocky demeanor and sweetheart moments, but his dirty mouth sealed the deal!! He's more than just this hot personal trainer, and he brings out a side of Nadine she didn't know she had and challenged her to let him love her. Yeah, he's completely swoony and brings all the good lines that make need to rehydrate as you read.
So if you want a book that has amazing characters with explosive chemistry that heats up your kindle but can make you laugh in between, this is a definite must read! This book has the best friends you love see root for one another and these hot amazing men that can dirty talk like no other. It's a perfect read that gives you all the feels and tingles you need! Highly recommend this book and this author!

I loved it! Nadine is me… lol Feisty, independent, stubborn, hates handouts, confrontational. Her character is why I enjoyed Your Trainer Says Hi so much. The author wrote a strong female character that everyone could relate to. I certainly did, the spicy scenes that happen throughout ate just bonus. I will also say there were a few moments that I laughed out loud as well.
Nadine has her own job, but is also a partner in a juice bar location as well. Unfortunately though she found out that her partner and soon to be ex-boyfriend Heath drained the accounts to put money towards a pyramid scheme. She’s ready to steamroll whoever gets in her way. Instead she takes Heath’s personal trainer instead, for now.
Wick has admired Nadine from afar, never expecting her to be someone he's training. When she takes over Heath’s contract, he knows now is his shot. Heath wants her, he doesn’t want to let go, however she has so many walls he needs to dismantle to do so. Is it even worth it?
What happens between these two is entertaining. It carries spicy encounters, encouragement of one another, respect, and some laughs. So what do you have to lose?
A revenge romance that will have you wanting more. It will also make you not want to put the book down. So go on, jump in. It doesn’t hurt… lol

This was a great story of lust and revenge. It is a romcom and I really loved the characters of Nadine and Wick. Both of these characters are bad ass in their own way and it's this confidence and arrogance that makes the sparks fly between them.
The story starts with Nadine realising that her now ex boyfriend took money from their joint business to fund a new venture(which is a scam). Furious that he has risked her dream and also the betrayal of just taking the money she ends the relationship and takes revenge but taking his personal trainer.
When Nadine and Wick met they clash. Wick is an arragone ass and he winds Nadine up constantly but it doesn't take long for that hate to turn into sexual tension and when Nadine gets a glimpse of the dominant side of Wick she can't help but want more.
But things won't be plain sailing as Nadine and Wick still have to endure her ex getting involved in their lives.
This is a great steamy romcom. There are laughs and the banter between the characters really brought the story to life.
One thing I really liked is how Nadine sets out to get revenge by sleeping with the trainer her ex idolises but what she ends up with is more than she could ever imagine.

This book is book two of the series. It can be read as a standalone but there are some crossover characters so if you want to understand who’s who, read book one first. Both are good so you won’t be mad.
Nadine is doing well! She’s got her juice bar, her job, and her best friend. Everything is great! Until she receives a phone call that sends everything into a tailspin. Now, she has to confront soon to be EX boyfriend, Heath, and figure out how to keep the juice bar afloat. As payback, or to start, Nadine is stealing Heath’s personal trainer. She is sure Wick is not her type so she’s just going to get a couple months of sessions as reimbursement. That is until she finds herself in his hot tub and it all changes from there. Wick is honestly just what Nadine needs. Someone to be nice to her but also not so nice (when it counts).
Wick wasn’t at all what I was expecting but man is he everything! He was surprisingly nice (and that was important to him) but super alpha which is great! Nadine is strong and independent. She has a hard time letting Wick be nice but she comes around. These two have intense chemistry! This book was so good!

Who goes into business with someone they’ve only been dating for six months?
Nadine Garrison realized too late that a good opportunity isn’t always the best opportunity…when she and Heath both put in the same amount, she thought it’d be okay, but now Heath has made a huge, unauthorized withdrawal. From the business. For what?
Heath is determined to make money in every way possible, but his current “instant money maker” is a HUGE red flag. Now Nadine has to cover the business at her own expense.
In order to start getting back the money he stole, Nadine takes over Heath’s personal training sessions.
Wick is a no nonsense gym trainer determined to push Nadine to her limits…in multiple ways. He’s arrogant and it drives her mad, but they can’t seem to keep their hands off of each other.
This was a fast, upbeat read with a whole lot of laughs. Heath’s character comes off as 100% the jerk he is, and definitely leaves you wondering how she ended up with him in the first place. Wick is infuriating and sexy with all the fun things in between.
I enjoyed this spicy, sweet, and fun romance. Might have to go back and read book 1.

This had me laughing throughout the book.
I love their banter. She was a little hard on him, but it seems he liked it.
I like that the story, although similar to the first, wasn't the same. I really enjoyed their story. It's a single point of view telling.
I had been wondering what happened to her boyfriend from book 1. I believe when I read the summary for book 2 when I first finished book 1 I was like WHO is Heath?!? Cause she was with Jace at that point. If I remember correctly. This story is taking place 2 years after book 1 (I believe) so Jace is gone. We do get to find out what happened with him... at least somewhat. I feel like I'm missing something Maybe a novella or something that comes between book 1 and 2 because even Heath and Nadine's story picks up right in the middle as well as the telling about what happened with Jace. It feels like maybe I missed something some where.
I think these characters were well written. They were so compatible with one another and I loved how they both had their quick and witty comebacks. <3

Your Trainer Will ABSOLUTELY do!
Nadine and Wick might just be my new favorite couple from Indie’s catalogue of smutty perfection.
As the second book in Vengeful Vixens, I had high hopes for this going in, but holy mother of gravity defying hotness! This was slap your mama levels of good, the spice was enough that I’m pretty sure I broke a sweat, and the revenge is absolutely a dish best served with wine and a hot tub.
Wick can absolutely light my candle any day of the week, and Nadine is such a strong willed and confident FMC- even when she’s struggling with major setbacks. Absolutely an inspiration and anyone looking for a little courage to stop letting themselves get screwed over should immediately pick this up.
Returning cast members from book one, a delicious bit of power exchange, a hero I would never throw out of bed ( but might throw a pillow or two at from time to time- arrogant, delicious man), humor, and heart make this a 5* read I’m going to be shouting out to anyone looking for recs.
I have no idea what I’m going to read next, this book is THAT good.

Good storyline. There is quick smart banter between all the characters. I enjoyed the dissension between Nadine and her business partner but the relationship that grew between Wick and Nadine was fascinating to watch. Despite the graphic and sometime kinky sex it went from spark to the ending everyone wishes with fun and flirty thrown in. I think Wick is a softie and liked Nadine since the beginning but did not want to step on anyones toes. Nadine is very smart and quick witted. She likes control and loses it a bit reluctantly at times but others she gives it away willingly.
Overall I did not see a lot of growth in Nadine or other characters but it was still a good solid story. It flows well and has a what will happen next theme that keeps the pages turning. I liked the grand gesture at the end and how they both had something they did not want to lose.
This is a first time author for me. This is the second in the series and I did not read the first. It was easy to fall into the story and the characters with no trouble.

Your Trainer Says Hi! The second book in the Vengeful Vixens series is my type of humour. I love a good refreshing Rom Com and Indie is a new author to me but she does it in spades. How have I not stumbled across this author before? Somehow, I missed the first book, and I must go back and read it now.
I laughed out loud with the witty and funny banter. This is one of my favourite reads of the year so far. I wish the story was longer because it is an easy read and I had so much fun.
Betrayal with a capital B. Revenge is sweet for Nadine especially when she gets down and dirty with Wick. Erotic spicy scenes. Ooh la la! That man knows his way around a woman.
Sexy and steamy encounters, lots of angst, amazing characters, fun, and definitely hot and flirty.
I love that these Vixens are sassy, relatable, and raw and know what they want even if they are a mess at times.
I can't wait for the next book.

Your Trainer Says Hi! (Vengeful Vixens Book 2) by Indie Sparks. This is such a fun series and every book I've read I've loved. This is Nadine's story and she seems to be doing great. She has her own juice bar and life is good until she realizes that her soon to be ex Nathan has stolen all of her money to put into a hair brained scheme. Her best friend tells her she should seek revenge but Nadine has no idea what to do. Wick is Nathan's personal trainer so she decides she will steal him. He's hot, he's handsome and he's full of himself. He thinks so highly of himself that Nadine and he butt heads 100% of the time. The tension between them is off the charts but some of that may be sexual tension. The more time she spends with him the more she wants him. Once Nathan finds out that they are involved he makes Nadine's life even more difficult! Will Nadine's business survive her ex and will she and Wick make a go of their relationship. Read this fun filled romance to find out!

We meet Nadine in a previous book and now she gets her story. She decided to go into business with her boyfriend Heath when they had only dated for a few months. Big mistake on her part he stole money from their juice bar to invested in a scam company. This is how wick comes into the picture he was Heaths trainer and part of her payback was to take his sessions. The chemistry between them from day one is nothing short of hot! Wick brings out a lot of things Nadine never knew she would be interested in. Things aren’t going well with the business she is trying to get out of her partnership with Heath but he starts acting out once he finds out she is seeing Wick. Tension runs high and Heath and Wick have a run in which makes Nadine feel like her boundaries have been violated. Luckily Wick convinced her to give him a chance again.

This book was out of the normal for me to read, but im super happy I did. This book was super funny, with a little steamy romance, plus who can’t resist the hottie of a trainer? Nadine is an incredible person, she is feisty, independent and smart. When she finds out that her so called friend and business partner starts doing stuff that’s a big no no, she takes it in her own hands for a little bit of revenge. The stuff her and her friends get into and do really makes me think of how me and my friends would be if we were in that situation. There are some things that should be trigger warning like mental health issues, body image shaming, manipulation and some self-esteem issues, but this book was an all-around fun thing to read. I did not read the first book, which didn’t matter I was able to understand and follow along, it Is a great stand along book.

I don’t know where Indie Sparks has been all my life, but they just wrapped me up in a MARVELOUS read! I was hooked from the get-go (trust me, you will be too) and I couldn’t read fast enough. Now I didn’t realize this was book two, so I’ve already ordered the first in the series because I cannot stop thinking about it! Nadine decided to go into business with Heath, a guy that she’s been dating for six months, which can only be a good thing…or so she thought. Things go awry and Nade decides she wants to get revenge. What could be better than stealing Heath’s personal trainer, Wick? What no one saw coming was how much chemistry Nade and Wick would have together. There is plenty of personal training in and out of the bedroom! You’ll enjoy this spicy, romantic comedy, just don’t forget about the first book, “Your Boss Says Hi!”

So I am typically someone who reads dark romances 95% of the time . But lately I have been trying to change it up a little bit .And Your Trainer Says Hi was just the change I was looking for . Especially since I’m a sucker for a great best friends to lovers relationship. Your Trainer Says Hi was the perfect blend of all the things a great romance should entail . It’s filled with some of the most wonderfully written likable and relatable characters you’ll ever want to meet , it’s fun and sexy and emotionally charged , there angst , witty banter , humor , family , friendships, unexpected surprises, heartbreaking and heartwarming moments . You’ll smile , you’ll cry , you’ll laugh so hard and you’ll be on the edge of your seat form start to finish . In short it’s a must read

We met Nadine in book one and now she has her story! I absolutely love the whirlwind that is named Nadine (and that she has her own huricane namesake) and love that she kicks butt and takes names in a male dominated industry. The chemistry that she and Wick have is very hot and spicy. Tempers flare when Nadine thinks Wick crossed several boundaries, but luckily, she gives him a second chance. This can be read as a standalone, but several characters from book 1 appear in book 2, so you may prefer to read book 1 first. I absolutely would recommend this series! It definitely pulls you in and you'll be attached to the character's very quickly. I really hope that we'll get to see more characters having their own books in the future!

Nadine is a woman with goals she works hard and runs a rapidly growing franchise with (unfortunately) her ex.
And what an ex he is. Dumb, gullible, totally gonnnneeeee in the head.
She needs to cut ties and get back what she can but at the moment all she can get is her ex's gym membership.....
Enter Wick gorgeous and full on. He understands Nadine, thinks the ex is a fruitcake and ta dah match made in heaven or a coffee shop either or. He's full on 0 to 100 when it comes to Nadine and she's not going to to say no to a delicious helping of Wick.
The banter is funny, sweet, naughty. The romps hot and wet. These two steam up the outdoor blinds really well.
I was given this book as an ARC.

I had not read the first book in the series, but I will be remedying this immediately as book two was amazing. The author did a great job of sharing details from the first book, but not so much that I feel the story was spoiled. Nadine was an amazing heroine and her chemistry with Wicks was electric and the steamy factor was off the charts. He was such an amazing lead male who was sweet and sexy. He was such a supportive and caring guy which threw me, because I was expecting such a cocky guy, but he was just such a sweetheart. Nadine had such a rough go with her now ex and seeing her get such a fabulous guy, made it such an amazing story. I loved the title of the book, it cracked me up. I can’t wait to read the other books in the series and by the author.

This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up. One of the things I enjoy most about this author’s books is her writing skills and attention to details. This book is no different. This is a story about what happens when your heart is struggling not to like someone but it keeps pulling you back to that someone. I enjoyed how the characters made the story pop. They made the story come to life on every page. I enjoyed watching their growth and their chemistry is off the charts. This is a fast paced romance story that you don’t want to miss. It is engaging and I enjoyed the entertainment value. An easy story to read that will have you coming back for more. I really enjoyed reading this book. I highly recommend this book and this author.

This was a cute short and fun read.
Nadine has been backstabbed by her boyfriend who went behind her back and took money out of their payroll fund to an “amazing opportunity”. *queue eye roll*. Nadine is MAD and decided as part of her payback she is going to take his personal training sessions. This is where she meets Wick, who puts her body through the wringer. ;) Nadine is a strong independent woman who don’t need a man, but Wick just wants to make her happy and help her de-stress her life. Wick is a total cinnamon roll who has a naughty side and pulls out all the stops to win her over.
If you like a slight daddy kink, a sexy cinnamon roll, a strong woman, and a hot tub.. you will enjoy!

Soo.. I was really surprised by this book and while it does have some of your typical romance tropes I felt that it was a pretty original story that I really had a great time reading. I didn’t get so much a vengeful vixen but a seriously wronged girlfriend trying to lash out in anyway for very good reason beings that her boyfriend literally steals from their business and continually tries to undermine her to build his own business. I really liked Wick from the first time he is introduced and once he is involved the book becomes super steamy with lots of hot tub action. I’m glad that she finally let him in at the end for good and I really loved Oakleys wedding scene at the end. If your looking for a fun, quick, entertaining read look no further!

Let me just say I needed this book. Sometimes you just need a really good rom com to brighten your day and lighten your mood!!
I absolutely enjoyed getting to know Nadine. She is a strong female character. While she makes mistakes, like initially trusting the wrong man, she isn’t afraid of a little spicy adventure or revenge.
Wick is all i expect in a rom com male character. He is perfect for revenge against the ex (Heath). Of course there all sorts of twists and turns along the way. Lots of steam and spice added in for good measure as well.
It was a perfect read to make you smile, laugh and just feel good. It also leaves you longing for a little Wick time!
