Breaking the rules with his best friend’s sister has never felt so right!
After eight years in the UK, Renée Swank is back in sunny California, ready to launch her chic lingerie boutique. But right across the hall is Dillon Matthews—the rebel from her teenage diaries and, awkwardly, her brother’s best friend. As if that isn’t enough, her kleptomaniac cat keeps stealing her panties and dropping them in his apartment. The last thing she needs is daily run-ins with her old crush… but how can she refuse his help to get her secret project off the ground?
Dillon Rule-Breaker Matthews is a helicopter pilot by day and a carpenter by night, and he’s always had Renée firmly in the “hands-off” category. Watching over his buddy’s little sister should be simple—until her mischievous cat starts sabotaging his love life. What starts as fixing up her boutique quickly sparks into stolen kisses, and before long, the shop isn’t the only secret they’re keeping.
As boundaries blur and passion ignites, they’re forced to confront the ultimate question: is love the ultimate reason for breaking the rules?
Monique DeVere writes funny, feel-good romances with heart, hope, and a dash of sass. A true romantic, she believes falling in love should come with belly laughs, awkward moments, and that delicious slow-burn sizzle. Originally from Barbados, Monique lives in the UK with her real-life hero, their four grown children, five grandchildren, and an adorable Yorkie. She loves writing stories about strong, smart heroines and the swoon-worthy men who fall for them—whether in rom-com, contemporary, or inspirational suspense. When she’s not dreaming up emotionally satisfying love stories, she’s collecting new ideas, enjoying family time, or learning something new.
I received a complimentary copy of this book and so thoroughly enjoyed it that, I purchased a copy.
This was a fantastic book. I enjoyed the first book of the series but I think this one was even better!! I really loved Dillon, he was the perfect male lead. Ren was a great female lead as well. The dialogue was hilarious and so realistic. I can't wait for the third installment of this wonderful series.
Swoon! Oh, this book has ALL the everythings! A hot, sexy, alpha book boyfriend? Check. An independent, strong, feisty and determined leading lady? Check. A crazy cat that causes all sorts of mishaps to occur? Check! Sneakthief (the cat) was hilarious, while Dillon and Renee were absolutely perfect together. Their road to their HEA wasn't easy, since it was paved by her overprotective brothers, one of whom is Dillon's best friend, and littered with hesitations and misunderstandings. But their chemistry was Off. The. Charts! So much fun in this book, so many rules to break, so much heartwarming love and affection, and we even get to catch up with Adam and Lacey from the previous book. It's simply romantic perfection. I loved every page. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
