Rebel Soul by LK Farlow





 



Blurb

West Larson comes from old money—the kind of wealth that comes with expectations steeped in archaic traditions. So, it’s not surprising when he learns the conditions of his trust fund: produce an heir before he turns twenty-five.

Enter Stacia Kellan. Her lowkey personality makes her the perfect baby mama…without the drama. And thanks to her wild-ass hair, colorful tattoos, and smart mouth, she’s exactly the kind of girl his parents would never approve of. Add in the fact that she’s a total smokeshow…knocking her up certainly wouldn’t be a hardship.

Stacia lives her life fast and loud. The idea of settling down isn’t on her radar. So, when her long-time friend asks her to have his baby, her immediate answer is a big, fat hell-to-the-no. Seriously, is he crazy?

West pulls out all the stops in wooing her and with every heated encounter, Stacia finds herself falling a little more for his charm and wit. Oh, and his forearms…yum.

Obligations. Lust. Friendship. Love.

The lines begin to blur as emotions enter the equation and besides, everyone knows you can’t deny your rebel soul.

Excerpt

“Can I drive?” I ask, rubbing my hands together like an evil genius who just hatched a plan.

West appraises me for a moment before laughing. “That’d be a hell no.”

“Why?”

“This car’s got a lot of power.” He leans back against the passenger door smirking.

“Yup, sure does.”

“And you think you can handle it?”

Scoffing, I say, “I know I can.” One of the many things AJ and I bonded over when we became friends was our love of cars; while she prefers old, American muscle, I lust over supercars. Either way, she and I both like to go fast—really fucking fast. “Don’t tell me you’re one of those misogynistic assholes that think women can’t drive?”

“Not at all. I’m just territorial about my car.” A calculating glint shines in his blue eyes. “Give me one good reason I should let you behind the wheel of my baby.”

“I’ve wanted to drive one of these ever since it completed a lap of the Nรผrburgring Nordschleife track in just over seven minutes. You do realize you own the seventh fastest street legal vehicle, right?” I step into him, pressing my front to his, my hands roaming over the hard planes of his chest. “No lie, the thought of handling it gets my panties…” 

I trail off and West gulps, sliding his arms around me, tugging me impossibly closer. “Gets your panties what?” His voice is rough and gritty, rubbing over my libido the same way a stubbled jaw would my skin.

Bring my ears to his lips, I whisper, “Wet. It gets them wet.”

“Fuck,” he groans, every bit of his longing plain for me to hear—and feel, judging by the bulge pressing into my belly. “She’s all yours.”

I step back from him, a smug, victorious smile plastered to my face. “I knew you’d come around.”

This is book 2 in the series and I read book 1 and I loved it but to read this story you don't have to read the first book, it actually takes place 2 years or so later and the story catches you up easily what had occurred with the two main characters in this story in the past.

This book is Stacia's story and she is best friends of the heroine, AJ in Rebel Heart (the first book). West is bestfriends with AJ's husband and so West and Stacia are friendly as besties of this couple. This story is primarily Stacia's as she is trouble and her family is in trouble. She comes from a  wealthy family and is a 22 year old college graduate living at home and employed as a make up artist. Her life is pretty great until her dad is arrested and no one believes her that he is innocent. She gets thrown out of the mansion and has nowhere to live and no money to help her dad and so AJ asks West to let her move in and they become roomies.

West's life was going great until at age 24 he learns he must have a baby before he is 25 to retain his families inheritance from his grandmother who he adored. His best friend and lawyer is Colton and the two hatch a plan to find him a baby momma.

However as West and Stacia live together and get to know each other they become best friends and fall for the other, but they both have some huge problems and they have to figure out how to solve their own problems.

I adored this book. I loved how the author did not let either fall for the easy solution in solving their problems. Stacia does some crazy things but she never damages her character while trying to save her dad. I also loved how West really learns to respect and fall for Stacia in a very honest way. The author did a great job making this a friends to lover romance with a little baby drama thrown in the story.
