Even rebels have regrets.Mine has a name: Jamie.When news of Jean Perry’s passing reaches me, I feel a moment of selfish relief and hope that I might be able to reconcile the most consequential mistake of my life.There’s only one problem.Her sister.Avery Perry.The moment I see the way my son looks at her, I’m reminded of a past I thought long buried. There’s more to this arrangement than meets … more to this arrangement than meets the eye and there’s only one way to learn more.
It’s time to play house.
No feelings. Just observation. And maybe a little seduction along the way.
I am a rebel, after all.
And not all rebels are worthy of redemption.

This one wrecked me on a whole new level. Do many of Avery’s worries and insecurities… I can relate as a Mom. Not that I’ve ever been in her shoes, but as a Mom, I can totally feel her pain.
Wyatt wants what is his, and how that is his son. He cares not for the woman raising him. Her sister left a bad taste in his mouth and he refuses to be misled again.
Avery loves Jamie as if he were her own son. The only mother he’s ever known. And Wyatt coming along throws a wrench into his plans and changes the world ahead knew, or thought she knew.
Sparks fly, and not always in a good way. What is clear is Jamie is one awesome little dude whose world is thrown for a loop and he adapts as any well loved and adjusted child does.
It isn’t just the story of Avery and Wyatt, but also the adorable little boy who brings them together. Can the past be overcome to truly give all 3 a happily ever after? Or will the lies and manipulations of a dead woman tear their worlds apart irrevocably?
Foss does it again ~
A big thank you to Lexi for ripping out my heart ~ repeatedly, mind you ~ then stomping on it until it was nothing but broken pieces scattered on the floor.
I am currently recovering from one of the worst book hangovers I can recall and hoping for a miracle. And more vodka. Oh and tissues. Definitely, need tissues.
I was waiting for Wyatt’s story and I was not disappointed though I must admit I think it was little Jamie who stole my heart.
Avery has been Auntie A since little Jamie was a babe. Her sister, Jean was not able to financially, or emotionally care for him so she took the role of mother and aunt. Avery’s world is turned upside down when her sister passes and she files for legal custody of Jamie only to find she is not Jamie’s sole surviving family member. She is about to have her entire world ripped from her arms and there is not a single thing she can do about it.
Wyatt can’t believe the nerve of Avery to go after full custody of his son. The evils people will commit under the guise of love. With no intention of letting Avery get away with it, Wyatt decides a little payback is in order. He sets his plan in motion and he knows from past experiences what the Perry women are capable of. He will show no kindness.
You reap what you sow.
Oh, Wyatt what a fool you are.
I cried… I laughed .. I cried some more… I awww’d… I cried again… Getting the picture?
This was such a sweet and highly emotional read.

I am not sure if this is touted as a stand alone but I believe you would have no problem following the story and connecting with the characters even if you have not read the first two in this series.
But! Why would you?
I own this entire series
