Is the pair destined to sink… or can they swim?

Birthday Girl was the third and final book of Lily Kate’s Minnesota Ice Series. It can be read as a stand-alone but I recommend reading the others as well! It was funny, sexy, and swoon worthy!! I loved the sly humor throughout the book!
Cohen wasn’t a saint and the last bit of trouble he got into landed him a gig at the local YMCA. Teaching adults to swim was the last place he thought he would meet someone. But when he saw Annie he knew something was different about her.
What he didn’t realize was how hard it would be to get Annie to give him the time of day. When she finally gave in, could Cohen be enough for her or would their relationship go down the drain?
Cohen was such a great guy. He had a heart of gold and would do anything for Annie! They were really sweet together, it was fun to watch them take it slow. She definitely made him work for it
A fun, sassy, entertaining, and heartwarming story. Cohen is a misunderstood “bad boy”, and Annie is a sweet, adorable woman; whom captures Cohen attention at first sight. I loved how patient, understanding, and protective he is with Annie. He definitely met his match. This book was the cutest. I loved everything about this story.
Annie and Cohen are so sweet and sexy they melt hearts and singe fingertips. Annie’s mother has decided in her infinite wisdom to have her wedding on a cruise ship and if the maid of honor dress wasn’t punishment enough not only is it only her birthday but she is forcing her to take swim lessons. Annie is like deathly afraid of large bodies of water and has made it this far in her life without it crippling her so she sees no reason to face this phobia now. But at her mother’s incessant prodding she acquiesces and finds herself enrolled in an adult beginner’s swim class. She figured she could just bride the instructor for her certificate, get her mother off her back, and carry on with her life. What she wasn’t counting on was Cohen James… Hockey’s handsome bad boy was not what she excepting as her instructor and she certainly wasn’t expecting for him to pursue her. Cohen needs some good PR to help his rep, so that’s how he finds himself teaching the lovely Ms Annie Plymouth how to swim. There is just something extraordinary about Annie and he is helplessly drawn to her especially when she is less than gung-ho about his charm or his intentions. For the first time ever he has found a woman that is worth every ounce of effort he has to put in. Annie has walls a mile high around her but Cohen is willing to be patient until he dismantles the wall brick by brick, but will Annie give the reformed troublemaker a shot?
Cute story. Annie has a severe phobia about water due to a childhood trauma. Her mother signs her up for swimming lessons. Cohen is a hockey player, who is rehabbing his image by teaching swimming lessons at the Y. They have chemistry, but Annie keeps pushing him away due to her fear of rejection caused by a neglectful father. Cohen slowly woos her and the rest is history. The story was okay, but not great. This is billed as a romantic comedy, but was was just mildly amusing.
