Yours to Keep

Rate this book
I built my empire by cutting anything that slows me down.

People. Departments. Entire companies if I have to.

Cold decisions. No apologies.

Then she walks into my hospital like she owns the place… like I didn’t just buy it and put my name on every inch of it.

She challenges me like she’s not afraid of me.

Fights for her patients like she’d go to war for them.

Looks at me like I’m something she’d enjoy tearing apart.

I should put her in her place and remind her exactly who’s in charge.

Instead, I keep thinking about what it would take to break that defiance… and whether she’d like it as much as I would.

Now she’s not just the woman driving me insane.

She’s the one I can’t stay away from, even when wanting her puts everything at her job, my reputation, and the control I don’t give up for anyone.

She was supposed to be a problem I’d solve.

A distraction I’d eliminate.

Instead, she’s the one thing I can’t control.

And maybe that’s the point.

Baby, I’m yours to keep.

Every good girl deserves a bad boy. ~ Weston

Hey there. I'm Weston.

Have we met? No? Well, that's a shame, but let's fix it.

I'm a former firefighter and EMS guy who traded emergency calls for romance novels. These days, I write stories about bad boys, billionaires, military heroes, and the kind of men who occasionally make questionable decisions before finding their way back to what matters most. Love.

I live in Texas with my wife, our three kids, and enough animals to qualify for a small petting zoo. Life is loud, busy, and wonderfully chaotic, which is probably why I enjoy disappearing into stories where love somehow manages to win in the end.

At the heart of every book I write is the same belief: life can be hard, but a great love story reminds us that hope, healing, forgiveness, and second chances are always worth fighting for. And to put your mind at ease, I don't use any AI in my books. They're all fully flawed and done by humans. No way in hell I'd give my job to a machine when it's the reason I get up in the morning. So put that worry to bed.

Instead, grab your favorite drink, find a comfortable spot, and stay a while. The real world will still be there when you're done.

Until then, welcome to mine.

Wow, I'm still reeling from this book. Seriously, the passion and intensity that these felt for one another felt so real and I was living every emotion with them. It reaches in and grabs your soul!!!!
Bree Bennett had just finished getting her Nurse Practitioners license and her dream job working at Saint Raphael's hospital. The same one that her dad was in years earlier where the nurses saved his life and from that point on, Bree knew what her calling was and where she would be working. A dream come true.
A mandatory meeting is called and in walks the very handsome, hot, powerful, too intense Sullivan Crowne, the CEO and owner of Crowne Medical, who has just purchased St. Raphaels. He announces that he is the boss and doesn't give a fuck whether anyone likes him or not or likes the changes that are about to be announced. Things will be run his way. Period.
Bree is not about to let him make changes that will affect patient care and marches in his office to give him a piece of her mind about the new paper gowns that feel like sandpaper and itch like poison ivy. And this is where it starts. The back and forth banter between these two is electric and the sparks that fly are even more intense. This is absolutely one of the best stories I have read in a long time because of the raw emotion between Bree and Sullivan and the hope that they will be able to work through the distrust that she feels toward him which is so strong that she is willing to quit her dream job and leave the hospital she loves. But she can't go on seeing the very man she loves more than anything but does not like. A Great Job Weston!!!! 10 STARS!!!!!

Yours to Keep by Weston Parker was such a fun and addictive enemies-to-lovers romance that completely kept me hooked from beginning to end. Bree Bennett was easy to love as a heroine — compassionate, hardworking, and deeply devoted to both her patients and the hospital that meant so much to her. Watching her stand her ground against Sullivan Crowne made the story even more entertaining.

Sullivan stepped in as the typical cold billionaire focused on budgets, efficiency, and profit, and at first he truly didn’t care who disliked him. The tension between him and Bree was immediate, and their constant clashes created some hilarious and memorable moments throughout the book. The witty banter, dramatic confrontations, and undeniable chemistry made it impossible not to keep turning the pages.

What really stood out to me was the balance between humor, emotional moments, and romance. Beneath all the arguments and attraction, the story also explored the human side of healthcare versus the business side of running a hospital, which added extra depth to the plot. I also loved Sullivan’s character growth — his redemption arc was one of the best parts of the story and made the ending feel even more satisfying.

With steamy chemistry, lovable side characters, laugh-out-loud moments, and a heartfelt happily ever after, this was a romance that was genuinely hard to put down. Definitely one of my favorites from the series.

I received an ARC of this book and am sharing my honest opinion.

Bree Bennett is a nurse practioner at Saint Raphael Hospital, the facility that saved her Dad’s life; however shortly after signing a five-year contract, she, along with the rest of the employees, find out that the hospital has been bought by Sullivan Crowne, owner of Crowne Medical. And, as fate would have it, they, two stubborn professionals, lock horns over scratchy paper gowns that are more economical than soft cloth ones.

While Bree and “Sully,” as she brands him, continue their undeclared war, Bree is befriended by Sully’s sister who becomes a new advocate for softening her grumpy brother. But somewhere along the way the quasi-enemies start to accept the sexual attraction, much to their disgust, and then they take a taste of the forbidden fruit.

Thank you, Weston Parker for a other outstanding Wedding Bells Alpha Novel! Unlike the others, Yours To Keep starts with a first encounter between Sullivan and Bree that hilariously features a cannoli projectile! And it only gets better from there, with blazing romantic encounters set against a backdrop of new, life-saving medical technology and a secondary caste of previous alpha friends and family that add to the success of this wonderful story. Whether you are a current Weston Parker follower or new to his amazing talent, grab a copy, settle into your favorite nook, and enjoy!

Bree who loved helping others and could not wait to be a NP at St Rafael's Hospital. This is the hospital that saved her dad's life after having a heart attack many years ago

Well on day 1 of her starting, she finds out the hospital was sold and is now Crown Medical. Sullivan the new owner is a numbers guy. He is so looking forward to updating the 5th floor and adding new technology. He swears by doing so it will save so many people's lives. Bree is a people person and does not agree with his techniques on how to save by cutting costs. HIs first cost cutting is replacing clothes gowns with paper gowns. The new gowns are very uncomfortable. He also thinks laying people off would be a greater saving. This causes Bree to think about quitting.

Well Bree is not standing for this and each time he comes up with a new idea she stands up to him. Sullivan's sister Liana tries to give Bree pointers on how to get him to listen He is just not listening.

Bree does so many things to try to get him to understand. In the meantime they are both developing feelings for each other.

This is the latest in the Wedding Alpha Belles series, it can be read as a stand alone, although it does involve characters from the other books, for maximum enjoyment I would recommend reading the series in order.
The book features newly qualified Nurse Practitioner who is just starting in her dream role at Saint Raphael’s hospital when it is taken over by new management headed by Sullivan Crowne, who calls all the staff to a meeting where he states he will be making changes and that he doesn’t care what the staff think about him, or his changes.
Bree and Sullivan soon butt heads over some of the changes and she seems to be becoming the proverbial thorn in his side and sparks fly.
A thoroughly enjoyable story with rounded characters.
I received this as an ARC, I have read other books in this series and hope there will be more to come.

Opposites attract

Sullivan Crowne just bought St. Rapheal's hospital and has all these ideas to upgrading with top if the art medical equipment.
But in the process he is alienating everyone at the hospital. He has avrun in with Bree, a nurse practitioner. She loves her job and her patients.
He interrupted a small birthday party with cake for a nurse that has been with the hospital for a long time. He breaks up the party, telling to go back to work.
Bree gets so pissed at him buts up flyers to aggravated him.
But even with everything going on, there is an attraction for both of them. They both work well together one on one.
Great couple from two opposites that can't stop their attraction and try to work through the bumps. Need to read another great story by Weston Parker

Sullivan and Bree were both dedicated to their own jobs but the fun and games started as they clashed.
I loved Bree’s personality, she had worked hard to reach her role in the hospital and came across compassionate and caring with both patients and staff. Unfortunately Sullivan was not a people person and initially wasn’t bothered by this at all. I had to laugh at his introductory speech, he certainly wasn’t out to make friends. His sister though seemed the complete opposite and had no issue in giving Sullivan a few home truths.
Overall it was an easy story to read, I was definitely on Bree’s side throughout. There were some fun moments throughout the book which countered the serious situations. Definitely one I’d recommend to read.

Bree and Sullivan were definitely on opposite sides when they first met but ended up together after learning some valuable things. A bit more spicy than I would like but nevertheless kept me reading. Character development was good especially with Sullivan as a typical businessman who didn’t know how things run smoothly with Bree and Liana pointing out the human factor. It’s not all about the money or the prestige! Weston very sensitively portrayed what happens when big business does a takeover and what the human cost can sometimes is. Sullivan grew as the man he always was underneath it all and Bree never relented on what she believed in. Perhaps one of my favorite stories Weston has written .

The next Wedding Bells Alpha books brings us Bree Bennett who is a nurse practitioner that just signed her first contract with her dream hospital. On her first day the hospital was bought by a medical tech company and the owner comes in like a wrecking ball. Enter Sullivan Crowne. Boy do they clash in all the good ways. Bree becomes friends with his sister Liana, who tries to help Bree see his good side. As they grow closer can she overlook his ways or can he change? Will they find their HEA? This is another must read from Weston Parker. While it is part of a series you can read it on it's own.

Bree is starting her dream job at Saint Raphael Hospital. The first day is also the most challenging day because the hospital has been sold. Sullivan Crown is the new owner. Change is difficult especially in a business that has been run one way for a very long time. The difference in how to improve the hospital, staff responsibilities, and needed improvements in the structure shook up all the staff. Bree and Sullivan are initially oil and water. How this pair get together personally and professionally made the details interesting. I liked that there are some elements that made me angry while others had me swooning.

This review includes my thoughts and opinions about this book.

Wonderful enemies to lovers story between Bree and Sullivan. Bree, a new nurse practitioner, is stunned to hear on her first day of work that the hospital has been sold. Sullivan is a rich man with great technological advanced for medicine, who forgot that these are real people with lives and feelings. These two are oil and water, but once Sullivan realizes that there is more to life than profits, things get really interesting!
Absolutely loved this story! From the outside, the reader knows how this story will end, but the chaos and antics that ensure on this journey are powerful and fun.

Bree Bennett just landed her dream job as a newly minted Nurse Practitioner at her favorite hospital in NYC, only to have it bought by a butthead billionaire, Sullivan Crowne, who won't listen.  Naturally, they clash immediately; however, they both feel an attraction between themselves that they both try, and fail, to ignore.  This is a great story with a lot of insight into the inner workings of hospitals.  The human factor is always difficult for corporate types to quantify in their spreadsheets and budgets.  Bree and Sullivan ultimately reach their HEA in spectacular fashion.

What a fun read that's hard to put it down. Bree is excited when she gets her dream job at a New York Hospital. She's a nurse practitioner who's very devoted to her patients. Needless to say she's not excited when Sullivan, a billionaire, buys the hospital. He's all about the bottom line and she's all about patient care. Plenty of drama as they clash and lots of fun banter. An emotional roller coaster. Their chemistry is off the charts and eventually wins out. An HEA you'll like. I read a free arc via the author and voluntarily chose to review this book.

Talk about an actual Enemies to Lovers story!
Bree is the dedicated nurse practitioner.
Sullivan is the new Billionaire owner of the hospital she works at. He doesn’t care if he’s hated, he just wants to make a profit for the hospital.
Their fights are epic. A flying cannoli. The flyers with his number all over the hospital.
This book is funny, very steamy, and full of love. Sullivan has one of the best redemptive arcs I’ve ever read. And you will adore his sister.
This is a great addition to this series.

Sullivan and Bree the best ever enemies to lover story! 100% Recommended! Bree tortures Sullivan hysterically! I enjoyed this book so much. From laughter to horny struggles, to wanting to fire her, to not wanting her to leave! Sullivan and Bree seem to be complete opposites, but his sister helps them find common ground. The supporting characters are extraordinary and catching up with them was an extra bonus! Thank you Weston for sharing your talent with me! I received a complimentary advance copy of this book from the author, and voluntarily leave my honest opinion.

This is book 14 from this author’s A Wedding Bells Alpha Novel Series. The story stars Sullivan and Bree. Bree is everything Sullivan isn’t but needs. Bree is a Nurse Practitioner, starting her first day and Sullivan is also starting his first day but he’s the new owner of the hospital. They have different approaches and reasons for doing things. He’s all about cost and she is all about the patient. She tries to bring him over to her side of seeing things and this results in funny banter and hilarious fiascos.

This enemies to lover's romance were a joy to read. The characters are intriguing and adds flavor to the story. Bree gets her dream job, and she is in her element until the hospital is sold and Sullivan takes over. Battlelines are drawn and the drama begins between these two. I loved the banter between them, and it kept me connected until the last page.
I am volunteering to leave a review for an ARC of this book.

One of my favorites. Bree just landed her perfect job as a Nurse Practitioner at a hospital that means a lot to her. Sullivan Crowne just purchased this hospital and has plans to make tons of changes. When Bree stands up to Sullivan, that is just the start of their story and what a story it is. Absolutely loved this one and the story was truly hard to put down.

The beginning was hard to push through, I didn't like the H and was slightly annoyed by the h. It got better. The h was a bit of a hot head and stormed off at a point which I guess made for the drama but I think she should have been more adultlike and listened. Even if she still stormed off afterwards

WOW!! WOW!! The passion and the explosive feelings between Sulivan and Bree will capture you from the first few chapters, and only disappoints you on the last page as that is the end of the book :)
Thoroughly enjoyed their journey and would recommend this page turner.

First, it was much too long. Second, no hospital admin would let the lead female get away with everything she did at the beginning. Lastly, she should have tried to understand where he was coming from.

Looking at the reviews, i feel like i read a different book.

I really couldn’t get into it.

I didn’t like Bree or Sullivan, i really tried to get into the book but gave up.

As always, read yourself and make your own mind up.
