This was A very cute story. Two people very attracted too each other, but refused to act on it for various reasons. He got his buddies to scheme to get together away from everyone and let nature take its course. Of course, then because he is an idiot, it walks away. He's sorry almost right away but doesn't know how to fix it. There were lots of little moments in this story that were very sweet. Both of them loved their friends' babies and their friends wanted them together. The characters were very likeable and the story moved quickly along. Very cute

Noel and TS have been stepping round each other for a long time, there’s an attraction between them but neither of them have acted up on it until now! TS is sure that he only wants a night with Noel to get her out of his system, Noel doesn’t want to give in until they are stranded in a cabin, where they both decide enough is enough. This book really delves into their backgrounds and there is a lot of angst before they have their HEA.

Thomas/TS and Noel have a love/hate relationship. It's that attraction between each other they just do not want to give in to but once they do there may be no going back. Enjoyed reading this hot little romance between these two who try to fight their attraction but in the end it was just too strong.

This is the 1st book I've read written by Debra Elise; she has done a great job at writing a good book; I can’t wait to read more of her books.

The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.

I loved the chemistry between the characters.

This was such a cute and sweet holiday romance it is the sixth book in the series but can easily be read on its own. I really enjoyed watching TS and Noel finally give in to the way they feel about each other the chemistry between them was good I was hooked wanting to know if they would get their HEA.

Wonderful!! This was a nice quick, short read. I really enjoyed this book! Only reason for one star deduction is because it's written in third person.

TS and Noel have known each other a few years, they give each other a hard time. When TS needs an interior designer Noel's name comes up, but he picks someone else. Noel thinks that maybe she needs to move to another state to get more business. If Noel would have gotten the job from TS it would have launched her career. Noel heads to the cabin, her a her best friends bought when they were in college. TS come up with a plan to follow Noel, telling her Maverick told him the cabin was free and he wanted some time to himself. When TS arrives it's early morning and Noel thinks someone broke into the cabin. Noel finds a bat and goes to swing at TS, but he ducks. Noel finds out why TS came to the cabin, and soon they are kissing. Noel pulls away she doesn't want anything to do with TS. After all he didn't pick her for her interior designer, and she knows he's a player. The next day TS and Noel get stuck at the cabin it started to storm, she can't refuse him. Soon they are making out TS is pleasuring her and then they make love. Noel tries to hold off her feelings for TS she knows he doesn't do relationship. They spend the weekend together getting to know one another, but as soon as TS can make it to the road he calls for someone to come and plow him out. TS leaves and Noel tries to get over him leaving so abruptly. When Noel is back in Pineville TS comes and finds her, he wants to have a friends with benefits relationship with Noel, and she agrees. Two months later, Noel wakes up and she is nauseous and running to the bathroom. Noel doesn't have a fever and realizes it's been a while since she had her menstrual cycle. Noel runs to the pharmacy and buys several pregnant test, they all come back positive. It's girls night and Noel doesn't touch her wine, she sips on her water hoping her friends don't notice. Noel's friends start to ask her what he going on with her and TS, Noel blurts out that she's pregnant. They all come up with a plan, she needs to tell TS he's going to be a father, but she knows he's not going to take the news well. A few days later, Noel shows up at TS office. When Noel blurts out telling him she's pregnant, he doesn't take the news well. Noel runs out of his office when he tells her he'll set up a trust fund for their child. TS's personal assistant comes in and tells him he needs to make things right with Noel. TS's personal assistant tells him that Noel is the perfect match for him, and she knows he loves her. TS goes after Noel and finds her coming out of the bathroom he tells her he wants to be part of their babies life. Noel leaves and tells him she'll be waiting for his lawyer to contact her. A few days later Noel goes to her favorite spot, TS shows up. TS tells her he wants a life with her, these last few days without her aren't worth living if he can't be with her.

She was everything he never knew he needed.

This was a sweet, funny, sexy, fast- paced read. Every book I've read from this author has a storyline, synopsis, and/or cover that grabs my attention so hard I sometimes have to drop what I'm currently reading to read her book. This book is one of them. The denied tenuous chemistry, heated traded barbs, and lust filled looks between Noel and TS were so hot🔥 I thought my Kindle and my phone were going to overheat. I have a minor exaggeration, but it is digitally very true.

TS and Noel were in desperate need of a breather. Well, that old saying is true. Be careful what you wish for. And there was a lot of wishing with this couple. I loved how TS pursued Noel and wasn't afraid to put his grown man boxer briefs on and get back in the game. This book hit every mark with me. From the beginning to their beautiful HEA epilogue. Hence, the 5 stars. I would most definitely recommend this book to my friends and all romance book lovers. You will not be disappointed.

Characters were interesting and romance was believable. Was a solid novella and it didn't feel rushed despite it's short length.

Writing style was fine, but it could have done with a proofread. I can forgive one or two little typos, this had a couple, including punctuation issues. It made it difficult at times to keep up with conversations when quotation marks were misplaced/misused or simply missing all together.

TS and Noel are combustible

TS and Noel are combustible at a glance. When they finally give in to explore their feelings they can't seem to keep away. Noel and TS both battle abandonment issues. Will they be able to get over their pasts?

I enjoyed this read 📚!

Sweetness

I love how the group of Outlaws and their wives are all friends. Even the guys share their thoughts and some feelings with each other. An enjoyable and sweet story.
