Mandy Baxter's Billionaire books are my new crack. I'm not sure if it is because I've fallen in love with the Christensen brothers for being so different from your average billionaires, but I need more of these books.
I liked Tess from the moment she appeared on the page. She didn't take any crap off her cheating boyfriend when she caught him with her best friend, and moved across the country to get a fresh start. She also has no problem standing up to her neighbor when his twin daughters take up refuge in her barn to run away from him for being so grumpy. I also loved she had no idea who he was or that he was the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. Seriously cracked me up.
Carter really is a good dad to his twins. Yes he is pretty cranky after being at the cabin for a week, but his girls have so much energy, any single parent would be cranky by that point. I love both Tess and Carter were attracted to one another pretty quickly, and yet they included the girls in their time together in the beginning. I knew it wouldn't be an easy road for Tess and Carter as a couple once he talked to his brother about his feelings of guilt about moving on after his wife's death. Yes it had been 2 years, but she was the love of his life and it made me love him even more that he wanted to protect that love. Of course, Carter and Tess have such smoking hot chemistry, they aren't able to stay away from each other for long. Especially when the girls go away to spend the night with their Uncle Nate.
I have to say my emotions were a little all over the place while reading The Billionaire Single Dad. I wanted Carter and Tess together so much, him pulling back made me want to punch him. While at the same time I wanted to hug him for the fact he still loved his wife and was afraid of loss again. Tess totally got both Carter and his girls, and it made me love her even more for the patience she showed them all.
The Billionaire Single Dad was another winner from Mandy Baxter for me. I actually have her next U.S. Marshall book on my kindle right now to read and I can't wait to dive back in for another Mandy Baxter story.
