It started out like any normal day.
Then the fender bender happened.
The guy I collided with drove an expensive car and was drop-dead gorgeous. Too bad he was also a total jerk. We argued over whose fault it was and any other thing that came out of his condescending mouth.
Eventually, the police came and we went our separate ways. The insurance companies would have to figure things out. I had a job interview to get to anyway–one I was excited about.
Though that excitement changed to disappointment the moment the person interviewing me walked in. The guy from the accident.
Whoops!
Yeah, so I didn't get the position.
The problem was, I really wanted it. No, I needed it. Anything to get me out of my current career and back into working with kids.
So, even though Hollis LaCroix was as intimidating as he was devastatingly handsome, I went back to see him and begged for a chance.
To my surprise, he gave me a shot taking care of his troubled niece.
At least my attraction to him wouldn't be able to go anywhere. I wasn't about to jeopardize my job or the strong bond Hailey and I formed.
But resisting the magnetic pull between us wasn't that simple. (Then there was our little underwear game–don't ask.)
We continued to flirt without crossing the line–until it finally happened.
This is the part of the story where we fall in love and live happily ever after, right?
Well, life has a way of throwing some major curveballs.
Ours was one I didn't see coming.
Once again, Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward give us a romantic and heartfelt love story with a twist. Park Avenue Player starts out like many other romance stories, the H and h meet and immediately dislike each other. But as Hollis and Elodie start spending time together, their chemistry grows. Their teasing games and banter were fun to watch. But as with most Vi & Penelope books, life comes out of nowhere and fucks it all up. There are a lot of deep feelings in the story…friendship, young love, loss…and the story flows effortlessly through the emotions. It’s a beautiful story of learning to live in the moment and not letting the past guide you. Excellent!
A taste
We didn't kiss–that would be too tame of a word to describe what was raging between us. We assaulted each other with our mouths.
