Mr. “I separate my laundry into six loads” is not in my plan. The “so clean it’s sterile and alarmingly white” apartment is his, but we share a bed. Don’t look at me like that, with his five million thread count sheets and a mattress made of angel kisses, you’d hook it, too. Besides, I need a bed that fabulous after a day of losing myself in a heartbreaking and dangerous investigation. He crosses … investigation.
He crosses all kinds of lines to give me what I need, even if I’m not in his plan.
With all this chemistry, heat, and passion tangling between us, I’m almost afraid to meet him in real life.
After all, plans aren’t the only best things laid.

The Fisher Men X-ing Lines is the 2nd book in the Fisher Men series by Rebel Nicks O’Dey. This book can be read as a stand-alone, however, I think you would get more from the book if you read the first book in this series before reading this one.
The start of this book runs concurrently with the first book so there is some overlap of the story, although you get it from a different point of view this time. At the end of the first book we get a sneak peak that there could be a budding romance between Rika and Connor. I was so excited to read this book when I realised that it was Connor and Rika’s story.
I absolutely loved both of these characters. I had loved them book in the first book and it was amazing to get deeper into each character. It was amazing that the 2 of them had been room-mates for a year without actually meeting each other.
This book is far more than a romance novel. There is a really interesting back story running throughout. The back story is intriguing and suspenseful and had me gripped, wondering how this story was going to pan out.
We’ve now had Xander and Connor’s stories which are both amazing. I now can’t wait to see what the author has in store for Zach and Morgan.
This sassy and fun romp was everything I was hoping for and was the perfect follow up to the first in the series. Although written in a way to stand on its own, you best appreciate the characters if read in series order. From the summary you anticipate hot steamy passion to develop. However there is an underlying dramatic element that plays well with the plot. I loved every minute and am thankful to have found O’Dey. What a gifted author!
This is a relationship done mostly through texting for about the first year. No meeting in person. They share the same apartment but one is always gone. I thought this was a novel idea. I only wish they could have come together a bit sooner. While apart the story focuses on the story/book that Rika is writing.
I love all the family! Their interactions are really what make this a great read. The razzing, the betting, the head slaps and the teasing. I was really looking forward to reading this after book one. Just to be able to hang out with all these characters and all their zaniness again. But this one just fell flat for me. I struggled getting into and caring about the two main characters. My problems were the subplot-too much and too distracting and choppy and I felt there was too much overlapping from book 1(now it’s from Rika or Connors perspectives). I just found my mind drifting while in these areas. Other than those couple items I enjoyed the book.
This is my second book by this author. I was over the moon with her first in this series. I struggled a bit with this one. It’s a good story and she weaves in the sub plot. The characters are good and we do find out more about the Fishers. I read the Epilogue where we find out who the next book is about….it sound great!
Loving these “Fisher Boys”!!! This story is a stand-alone and I am sure you will want to read Book 1 because this series is THAT GOOD.
This is a whitty, fast paced story with emotions, family, friends, romance and redemption. The story is well plotted and the cadence with which the story is told moves it along at a great pace.
This is one of those series that I hope goes on and on.
The Fisher Men X-ing Lines (Fisher Men Book 2)

5 stars
I LOVED this book!! After reading book 1 in the series I couldn’t wait to read more from this author, I still don’t know how I’ve missed her books before and I was not disappointed by book 2 whatsoever! This was a brilliant read, full of intrigue, great characters with off the charts chemistry and a great storyline! I loved Connor and Rika; they had an unusual meeting which I actually really liked. The on screen chemistry was bubbling and I was really excited to see if that would carry over once they met! It’s possible that I am a little bit in love with Connor!! I thought he was very swoon-worthy!! I really liked Rika too I thought that she was a great female lead! I was definitely rooting for these two the whole way through the story!
A fantastic second book in this series – I can’t wait for more!!
I enjoyed this book as much as the previous one in this series by this author. This story is steamy romance with sitting on the edge of your seat suspense. This is a creative, well written story that pulled me in right from the beginning. The characters fun banter back and forth made the story engaging and feel real. I enjoyed how at first they haven’t met yet but the chemistry when they do meet is out of this world. Sometimes plans don’t go as planned. I highly recommend this book.
