Beth Bankley is having the worst, no good, very bad day. She’s picked up her entire life and driven to Phoenix for a get-the-hell-out-of-Lincoln fresh start. The kind where a lying sister and a cheating ex-boyfriend doesn’t exist. Dawson Tate is easy going. Women come and go filtering through his bachelor life with the frequency of a good tire rotation and an oil change. When he meets Beth and … Beth and instantly realizes she’s his new tenant… all bets are off.
This is a full on insta-love romance with a guaranteed HEA. It’s short and steamy, perfect for reading next time you see your mechanic for a tune-up. XO – Rachel

This book was a serious downhill spiral for Beth. The poor woman! But she has some serious inner strength that gets her on her feet after each blow. I love the character dynamic and found this book to be fun, sexy, whitty and well written. The author could have been more indepth at times but overall this book was amazing and I loved it.

It’s funny, hot and sexy!
This short read was really entertaining. I crave love/lust at first sight stories with hot alpha hero and sassy heroine. I enjoyed this short read very much, it was funny and sexy. New beginnings cannot be better.
Poor Beth was fleeing to Phoenix to forget about her cheating boyfriend who is sleeping with her sister. On her way her car gets a flat tire. Nothing in sight, no cell phone service and no water. Then along comes Dawson and he helps her change her tire. She doesn’t know he is the person she was going to meet about renting an apartment over a garage. But she doesn’t take kindly to him calling her sweetheart and keeps correcting him. She even tells him her full name which lets him know she is going to be his rentee. Attraction for each of them but Beth doesn’t want to get into another relationship since her other one doesn’t go too well. But it is instant love for Dawson and he knows he has his work cut out for him. I kept thinking I was missing a chapter since they were just starting to get together and then it skipped to them being together. A bit more detail was needed for me. But it was a cute story and quick way to spend an afternoon.

This was a fun little book. I had an absolute blast reading it. It was a perfect lunchtime read. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book in exchange for a free copy.
4 1/2 Stars
For a short contemporary romance this story checked off all the boxes. With Dawson swooping in and literally rescuing Beth from her flat tire and her flattened life of woes. She’s been stepped on and tossed aside emotionally on all fronts but is trying to make a new start snapping and kicking all the way! Dawson likes her spunky personality and his alpha male protector gene is activated as soon as he see her and gets a taste of her sass!
Well written, easy to follow, no nonsense sweet and sexy romance!

This is a good quick hot little read and just perfect for when you have a spare hour. For a short story, it a decent plot and I just loved the chemistry between Beth and Dawson they were hot together. A super little read.
Beth was having the worst day of her life when her tire hit something causing her to spin out. Thankfully an alpha type guy pulled over to assist her. He turned out to be the man she was rushing to meet for the apartment she rented but at the time she didn’t know it. Dawson was captivated by the little woman right from the beginning and he could see that she carried the whole world on her shoulders and he would do anything to take away the pain he saw in her eyes. Will this be the fresh start Beth was looking for?

A short sexy read told in dual POV. I did find their initial meeting a bit dubious, however, reality has to be suspended given the genre and word limit. An enjoyable romp.

Fast, fun, and sexy story! An amazing, captivating, interesting and heartwarming read. Her writing draws you in and keeps you interested until the end. The chemistry between the H and h is amazing plus their attitudes and events going on make the story even richer.

Beth up and moves due to her ex and her sister.
Dawson’s a one and done, no cuddling the morning after kind of guy.
Easy come, easy go.
Things get tangled up quickly, though cuz she’s his new tenant.
Short and sweet with a little bit of spice.
