One Little Mistake by Avery Maxwell

 

One Little Mistake 

by Avery Maxwell

Goodreads

Released: July 1, 2021

Blurb:

Easton Westbrook entered my life like an arrogant, grumpy, wrecking ball, and refused to leave.
Our banter is addicting, and nothing I do or say will make him change his mind. But when his mind becomes focused solely on me, I run.
I can’t afford to give my heart away again. Not when I’m barely surviving with the broken one I have.
I have walls up for a reason. Reasons that are none of his business, but Easton is used to getting what he wants. And when he decides he wants me, I’m not sure I’ll survive it.
Lexi Heart entered my life like an arrogant, bossy, she-devil in heels, and I can’t get her out of my head.
She’s always ten steps ahead, and I have to admit, I’m intrigued. With every lash of her sharp tongue, she puts me in my place. But when I peel back the layers of her tough girl exterior, I see the broken shell she’s hiding, and my own walls come crashing down.
We quickly learn that what happens in Vegas doesn’t stay there, and I know I’m done for. I want this girl in every sense of the word, but can I convince her to take a chance on us? Or will the damage from her past be too much, even for true love?
Join Easton and Lexi in their highly emotional journey to a happily ever after. One Little Mistake is an enemy to lovers, accidental marriage romance that will draw you in and refuse to let you go.


My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My review:

One Little Mistake is the first book in the Westbrook series which is a spinoff of the A Broken Heart series.  This is one of those series that you will want to read in order, and it is best to start with the A Broken Heart series.  The timeframes overlap in the books and so reading from the beginning is preferred.  It is also a series that I have read repeatedly and every time I read them; I fall in love again with the Westbrook family.  They are such a large, boisterous, and charismatic family that you cannot help but fall for them.  The heroines are fun, sassy, and full of spunk.  I adore GG and her matchmaking predictions.  She adds such humor to the books and it’s funny to see those big alpha males fear her and her opinion.  This was Easton and Lexi’s story, and I looked forward to it and was so excited when it was released.

“You’re confused, Lex.  A real prince won’t create the happily ever after for you; he’ll stand by your side while you build it together.”

Easton Westbrook was known as the Grumpy Growler by GG and he lived up to that nickname.  After being deceived by the woman he loved and his best friend, he built walls to protect his heart.  Loki rescued Lexi from her ex-boyfriend after he abducted her.  She was trying to rebuild her life and did not need a relationship with her grumpy boss nor to be saved by him.

This was another amazing book by Avery Maxwell.  Each book keeps getting better and better.  I love the devotion the family has to each other and all the chaos that goes along with the large family.  I cannot wait for the next book!

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

One Little Lie by Avery Maxwell

 One Little Lie by Avery Maxwell

Release Date: November 5, 2021


My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

The Westbrooks: Family Ties Series Synopsis:

The Chaos Continues! You met their chosen family in Broken Hearts. Now get the stories of the Westbrook Brothers as they fight for, and sometimes against, their happily ever after.


One Little Lie Book Synopsis: 

She's the only one I'll ever love, but I had to let her go.

Rylan Maroney is the biggest lie I've ever told, and it nearly destroyed everyone in my life. No matter how much it hurts, I can never have her again.


He broke my heart and walked away, but he hasn't let me go.

Halton Westbrook has haunted my life from four thousand miles away for the last eight years. I've tried to move on, but he makes it impossible.


No one knows about us or why I ran away, but he's gone too far this time, and I have to take a stand.

When I return home, he'll have to decide, keep me, or let me go forever.

I'm not sure we'll survive either way.


My review:

“… my mother has an odd habit of adopting people, regardless of age.  If she decides you’re family, you’re subject to our chaos for life.”

This quote says everything you need to know about the Westbrook family.  They are big-hearted, rowdy, dedicated to family, and create chaos wherever they go.  One Little Lie, which is Halton’s (Hatty) book, is the second book in the Westbrook series.  To really understand the series and the family’s close bonds they share with each other, you need to start with the first book in the Broken Hearts series, Cross My Heart.  Also, the books are linked by family secrets and enemies that are slowly revealed through the series.  There are four books in that series and once you start the first book you will be addicted to the Westbrook family. 

“Our life is made up of moments in time.  Some moments we capture.  Some moments we royally screw up and some moments bring you right where you were always meant to be.”

This describes Hatty and Rylan’s relationship perfectly.  They met as children and as they got older, they captured their moments together; Rylan with a camera and Hatty with his art. As they finish high school, complications and misunderstandings destroy their relationship.  Now as adults they have a second chance together but first, they must learn to communicate and clear up all the lies and misunderstandings. 

This family will touch your heart and pull you into their chaotic lives.  I absolutely love the Westbrook family and their stories are unforgettable.  I have read through the series several times and will certainly do so again.  They keep getting better and better.  I really look forward to the next book which will be Colton’s.  He is the fun brother and the one always up to pranks so seeing him find his one and only should be interesting!
