TAKE ME THERE by J.H. Croix

 

Release Date: April 19


A swoon-worthy romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

I’m not planning to fall for the hot, broody military hero, thank you very much.

Skylar’s all but wearing a Stay Away sign. She might be tempting, but I can take a hint. Until a single moment leads to one kiss and then another. Before I know it, I’m in deep.

After tragically losing my first love, I never planned to fall in love again. But Skylar gets to me. She doesn’t even believe in love. I want her to believe. I want to slay her dragons. All of them.

I can handle it. My heart won’t get involved. Until Skylar walks away.

Tucker & Skylar’s story is perfect for readers who love: broody military heroes, friends to lovers, slow burn, small town gossip, emotional romance with a dash of angst, tons of swoon, and one smokin’ hot protective hero.

My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
My review:

This was the fourth book in the Dare With Me series but could easily be read as a stand-alone.  It was well written, and the pacing was perfect.  I have enjoyed this series and was excitedly looking forward to this book.

Skyler Bridges grew up bouncing around in the foster care system with her best friend Emily.  They had planned to move to Diamond Creek, Alaska for a new life, but Emily died before they moved.  Emily insisted Skyler continue with their plan, so Skyler moved and is trying to deal with her grief.  Her anxiety has always kept her from making friends and she avoided relationships because of her abandonment problems.  The women of Diamond Creek welcomed her and did not let her shyness deter them. 

Tucker Harrison moved to Diamond Creek to help his best friend from the Air Force when he needed more pilots for his family business.  Tucker only did casual relationships after losing his high school love to cancer.  He never wanted to risk losing someone he loved again and feeling that pain. He thought he could keep things casual with Skyler, but she had a way of wedging into the cracks in his heart.

Skyler and Tucker had many issues to face before they found happiness.  They both had lost loved ones and their faith in love.  Skyler had a hard time trusting so seeing her open herself to Tucker and growing was great.  I really enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who likes small town and second chance romances.  I look forward to future books from the author.

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
