I’ve been recommended Vanessa Vale for a bit. So, when I got the chance to read North I jumped and I was not disappointed. 

This novella wasted no time, the action starts right away! Jed is an FBI agent coming home with his tail between his legs and North is a billionaire businesswoman who has trouble letting anyone in after her late father did so much damage. Jed claims her (I had the biggest smile at the first “princess”) and decides he’s going to break down her walls. I’m pretty sure my glasses were fogged up at one point or another. The steam was that good. 
I listened to the audio, provided by ValentinePR, and Kylie Stewart did a great job with the angst, vulnerability, and lust. 
This is the first book in a series which will include her brothers’ stories, South, East, & West. And those should be plenty interesting. Looking forward to MANY more reads with Vanessa Vale. 
These thoughts are my own.
