If you can’t handle insta-love and need something more drawn out and angsty, go on and skip this one.
If short, sweet/sexy is your jam, this book is right up your alley!
I felt that the author had the ability to convey some depth to the personalities of the characters bringing a greater sense of reality to her story, which is tough to do in a shorter read.

This is the story of Laurie and Parker. She is a firewatcher and is hiding out in the lookout from her boyfriend. Parker, a new employee shows up to relieve Laurie of her duty and take her back to her boyfriend who is also her boss. She refuses to leave and the attraction between these two ignites. I enjoyed this story with the many unexpected twists, passion and romance. I received an arc of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I enjoyed this short story. Laurie and Parker were made for each other, they shared a strong connection, their chemistry was steamy. They were good together.
The story starts with Laurie and Parker reluctantly become instant attraction and lust at each other. Laurie is a firewatcher at the outlook. Parker is a new employee showing up to take her back to the boss/her boyfriend and replace her at the outlook. They spend the weekend together due to heavy rain and Laurie’s refusal to leave. A lot of loose pieces make you wonder: why she is angry and afraid to go back, why he wants to be an employee there, what are the odds to the physical resemblance between Parker and his boss, etc. Then the story takes a darker turn. Drugs, abusive relationship, fear and blackmail exchanging for loyalty, twisted sex come out. It is exhilarating to literally blow the devil into pieces, even though it seems a little overkill to use a grenade on one person in a close proximity. A lot of twist and turns eventually lock down the loose pieces….. Hmm maybe still a couple slipping away. All in all, this is quite a romantic suspense. It makes you think and it surprises you.

This was an interesting book. It was a tad strange at times, but all made sense at the end. And its a short story, only took maybe an hr to read. Cant wait for the next short story.

Complex and exciting romance
4.5
Very good romance full of mystery, psychological manipulation, very well written and very hot.
The story is quite mysterious from the start, because the two characters do not know what to expect about Carlos who seems to be a very rich man who has held prisoner and then temporarily exiled the heroine Laurie, (but nobody knows the reason why) and who hired the hero Parker, to bring her back and exchange their post. At least that’s what was said to Parker. Neither of them knows whether the other is lying or not, if they can trust each other, especially since a very strong attraction develops quickly between them.
Parker is lost in one another’s supposed lies and must choose whether to take Laurie back to his supposed executioner or savior.

I loved the way Parker ended up rescuing Laurie from the clutches of Carlos.
The suspense and drama ran high as Carlos was pulling their strings from the get go, and it took a while for Parker to untangle the strands.
Laurie was a strong likeable character that had been victimized by Carlos for years. Her attraction and chemistry with Parker was off the charts and many a steamy scene ensued.
Great ending and conclusion as this passionate and desperate couple fought for their HEA.

Laurie found herself in a horrific state with Carlos. She thought since he helped her out of her state of despair he cared about her. Laurie soon learned who he truly was as a person. He was degrading her with his weird and twisted obsession and ownership mentality. Parker who was ex-military was hired to bring her back to Carlos. The moment Parker and Laurie saw one another the attraction was evident. He seemed to be the person she needed to help her out of her current situation and understand the meaning of true love. Although Laurie and Parker were hiding things from one another, their feelings for each other didn’t change when all was revealed. They just had a huge obstacle in their way.
This story had some dark and twisted moments. It started off a little slow for me but when it picked up, I couldn’t put it down.

The next book in the ‘wild weekend” series and Lexi has managed to come up with a fresh plot behind the wild weekend. Laurie thinks she has escaped her Ex unti Parker arrives to take her back to him. What you don’t get with this book is why Laurie doesn’t want to go back to her ex Carlos until a lot later in the book after Parker has taken her back. What you do get is a sense of forboding that Laurie really shouldn’t go back to Carlos, and that yes there was something very toxic about him. I did enjoy how the plot developed and how other characters we had met in previously made cameo appearances.
Love the story. I was able to finish the book a little quick the the first. I personally love nights where you can hang and have a fun experience.

Laurie was hiding out in a fire tower. Why? Who was she hiding from? Parker, who was ex military, was sent to retrieve her by his new boss, Laurie’s ex-boyfriend. Laurie didn’t want to go back. This story was filled with deception, mystery and intrigue. Parker was trying to figure out what was going on? Parker felt something for Laurie. There was an electricity between Laurie and Parker. Was Parker really going to take her back? He begin to question what was told to him. Was everything based on deception? This story was cloaked in mystery, deception, danger, passion, and lust. It is a page turner!

This certainly was a spellbinding story of Laurie who was trapped in a relationship if you could call it that, with the twisted and corrupt Carlos and she meets Parker who works for him. This is a dramatic somewhat twisted story, very well written with characters you cant help but enjoy; but also one to hate. This brought up mixed feelings on this one, not enjoying anyone being used, and manipulated, so the premise was a little dark in places. I liked the chemistry between Laurie and Parker. This series had been really great and well worth the read.
