I’m so glad that I stumbled upon Lacey Black. She has become one of my favorite authors and one of my go to authors when I’m in a reading slump. And her books always pull me out.
This book is part of the series, but can be read as a standalone but it helps to have read the precious books. Which are also really great by the way.
I just love the world and characters of Rivers Edge that Lacey Black hands created. Fun, loving .sexy and above all family. I loved the Family dynamics of the Stevens family , they are so much fun to read and to follow, and rather realistic. What I also love about these books is that the side characters are just as important as the main couple. They play and equal role in each book.
Now to our main couple for this book. We have Travis Stevens this book and his one night stand Josselyn form the end of last book at his sister’s wedding.
I really enjoyed those two …… and how they handled the pregnancy. In fact Travis after the shock of the news was great. He did everything he could to make sure she and the baby are taking care of. He actually was really happy. He worked hard to make everything perfect. He ever worked a little too hard at times. But I could understand where he was coming from a little. And I really never doubted him, his feelings toward Joss or the baby.
While I really liked and enjoyed Joss, I also thought she could have been a little more interdependent. Even pregnant and in a new town I thought she could have done a little bit more for herself and maybe even for the baby and Travis. Yes, she fit perfectly into the family and they took her in as one of their own but I thought she was just a little to depended on them and Travis at times. But overall it all fit into the story line and just fit.
Travis and Joss of course have some wicked chemistry and know how to set the sheets in fire, pregnant or not. I thought they were the perfect match for each other and balanced each other out nicely.
The ending was while predictable absolutely prefect and I really could not see a better ending to their story.
Overall, great book and I look forward to see more of the Stevens family in the next couple books.
I rate it 4 ★

3.5 out of 5 stars.

Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed this book. I love the series, but I love the family even more.

I didn't feel like I ever fully connected with these two characters. I almost feel like their whole story was very rushed, and it was. I get that, but I still felt like there was just something missing in this book. I loved the first book of this series. I fell hard for Avery and Maddox, and little Bean. I also loved the 2nd book, and fell for Jake and Erin too. I enjoyed Travis and Josselyn, but I guess I didn't fall for them. I think with this story line, I needed and wanted more. I think of there was a book 2, for their story alone, that would push me over the edge with them, and I would enjoy them so much more. I would believe their story.

I still adore Lacey Black and her series. I love this family, and am fully addicted.

Aww

I adore adored Travis and Joss. He was sweet, hot and swoon worthy. It was another good story with the perfect mixture of feels, hot moments and the other family members that I love.

Travis Stevens is a mellow guy; more easy going than his brothers, he also is choosy in his partners (bed or otherwise) which literally upped his chances of being my favorite of the Stevens Siblings – there is a lot to be said about the subtlety of a man’s actions in romance.

Josselyn is the one who caught his eye; and even though she left without a word after their one night stand; he still hasn’t been able to forget her.

What follows is a journey of understanding, a journey of getting to know each other and laying foundation to their relationship.
