He tugs at the front of it and my breath hitches as he pulls me a little closer. "I look good on you." "I believe this is called hand holding. People do it when they are fond of another person - or when they want to piss off someone's mother" "After today - and especially what you said in the car - I realize there are too many things in this world that can drive us apart. Right now, we don't owe each other anything. If we want to go separate ways, we don't even have to supply the other with an explanation and I don't like that. I want to owe you things.

Josh King is an expert at running his family’s multi-million dollar ranch in Montana. (And all that outside manual labor has done wonders for sculpting his six-foot-three body, too.) But as sure footed as he is when it comes to the ranch, Josh doesn’t know anything about how to deal with an adolescent boy—so when his twelve-year-old nephew, Seth, is dropped off on his doorstep, looking scared and acting surly as hell, Josh knows he needs help in straightening him out. Cara Donovan loves her quiet life as a teacher in her sleepy hometown, so she jumps at the chance to make a little money over the summer as a tutor. But when she learns she’ll be teaching Josh King’s nephew, Cara’s sweet summer job gets a little bit hotter. Cara tries to focus all her attention on tutoring Seth, but Josh proves to be a delicious distraction, while Josh’s memories of the shy girl he once teased in high school are nothing like the beautiful woman he’s facing now. Can he persuade her that there’s more between them than a summer fling? Cara Donovan’s summer tutoring job is turning out to be a challenge—and not just because of her troubled twelve-year-old student. It’s his uncle Josh who’s the real problem. If problem is the word for an irresistibly cocky, muscle-bound rancher with a taste for tight Levi’s and shameless flirtation. Excerpts "You're kind and generous. You're so fucking smart, baby. I plan to spend a lot of time making you see you how I see you because the view is unbelievable." "Because this isn't a one-night stand for me, Cara. I don't know where this will go, but it's not a quick fuck against the wall by your front door." “Get it through that gorgeous head of yours, baby, this is not pity, charity, or just because I’m fucking horny. I want you, Cara. You.” He grips my hair in his fist and pulls me back so he can whisper in my ear, “You.” “What I feel for you is so big, Cara. No more doubts.” He tips my chin up to look me in the eye. “You’re with me because there’s nowhere else I want you to be. Got it?” Buy Now From Amazon Synopsis Erotic M/M Romance Mature Audiences How long did it take you to find your place in the world? For Ethan Walker, going through the motions of life, keeping his distance and never getting attached has become the mantra he lives by. Success is measured by how many hours he can work and how little attention he can draw. That was until he landed on Beau Bennett’s radar. Until Beau, Ethan had never met a man who could get him to question his own logic and even consider taking a different path. Beau Bennett knows exactly who he is - now. It might’ve taken him some time to figure it out, but now that he has his bearings, Beau has set his sights on the mysteriously sexy Ethan Walker. Pursuing someone has never been his style, but something is telling him to keep at it because the end result is going to be worth it. Now that they’ve found one another, how long will it take Ethan and Beau to accept that their place in the world is... Together? Review I have read all the books Nicole Edwards has written and Ethan has got to be the most emotionally intense book of them all and probably one of the most emotionally intense books I have read. In Ethan’s story there is depression, rejection, bullying, acceptance, . "Your mother and I have taught you not to judge people. You don't look down on someone else, and by God, you don't have the right to decide what is right or wrong for anyone else." We have to stand up for what is right, protect those who need it and hiding who you are isn't going to help." If you have read the other books in the Alluring Indulgence series you have meet both Ethan and Beau previously. Whilst Ethan had very minimal appearances in the previous books in this book you learn why Ethan is so reserved compared to the other 6 Walker brothers. In ‘Zane’ we got to know Beau and learn a lot about his character as Zane’s best friend, but in this story you learn who Beau really is. Both Ethan and Beau have their own issues to overcome throughout the story, but one thing that can not be denied is the strong connection between the two characters and you can see this from the very beginning of the book. Ethan is hell bent on fighting it, Beau is determined to get exactly what he wants. “I know exactly what I want. And you’d be smart to give in because I can tell you, I don’t have any intentions on giving up.” The story has so much going for it, all the brothers as well as their respective partners all make an appearance as well and parents Curtis and Lorrie Walker.
