This was the second novella in this series. This time we have Hudson (the brother of our previous H, Colt) and Jillian (best friend of our previous h, Sonya)

First off, I’m always a sucker for interconnected stories that feature TWO characters from previous books. I’m not a fan a meeting new people. (A HUGE pet peeve of mine is when we have lots of characters in a series and yet we keep getting new love interests introduced. Yes, in my head, I get that the author needs to go where the story takes them, in my heart I hate it and will actually avoid some series for this reason. Hey, the heart wants what the heart wants). And, even though we barely met Hudson, he’s still in the first book. Jillian was more of a part of the first one. Although with the length of the books, the MCs have to be the focus, so the side characters are definitely just that. Yet I was still looking forward to this story. Because in the little we did see Jillian, I just really liked her.

That leads me to my second point. I really liked the characters here. Jillian was funny, feisty, confident. Hudson was also confident, but had a sweetness to him that you don’t often see with the romance genre heroes.

This story, because it’s so short definitely has insta love and wraps up that HEA quickly, but it’s fun and I think it’s so cute that after reading it on KU, I purchased it. I ended up reading the entire series. Hudson is by far my favorite of the four. It’s the only one I had to go back and purchase because I knew it would be a good re read for when I want a cute, short read with no angst and that HEA.
