So when she finds herself on the tip of everyone’s tongue thanks to an encounter with a mysterious and handsome stranger, she learns the true meaning of ‘if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

I have really enjoyed this series but this story was one of my least favorite. It is well written and I loved seeing all the characters from previous books come back but Deacon was a little too aimless for me to love. Larkin, our heroine was what made this book. She is sweet, hot and she gives Deacon a run for his money.

Deacon is a motorcycle loving handy man, he was also former military guy. He pretty much rides his motorcycle from town to town until he ends up in Why Not and that is when he meets Larkin and wants to get to know her. He stays in town doing odd jobs as they date and romance each other.

It was a fun story and I liked both characters. I just felt that Deacon was a little too drifter for my liking. If you love this series, you will love this story and it was a wonderful ending to the series.
