RESTRAINT by Mari Carr (Blake and Erica)

ABOUT THE BOOK

Girlfriend…without benefits?

Hometown hockey hero, Blake has life completely figured out. He’s footloose and fancy free with the world’s coolest job and an endless parade of puck bunnies ready to help him celebrate his victories. The status quo is working for him, so why does he agree to co-parent a stray puppy with his too-serious, workaholic neighbor, Erika? And why is he so annoyed when she suddenly starts dating some tool named Doug? And why can’t he stop finding excuses to see her and touch her and kiss her and… She’s not his girlfriend, right?

Erika has enough on her plate as an ER doctor without adding any more stress to her life. So adopting a dog with Blake, the fun-loving, never-take-anything-serious, commitment-phobe across the hall is a stupid idea, right? Of course, she also probably shouldn’t be his plus-one for charity galas either. Or seeking comfort from him during a thunderstorm. Or kissing his five-for-fighting boo-boos better. Or letting him teach her how to “reduce stress” with her personal toy collection. After all, he’s not her boyfriend. Is he?

So what happens when two people reluctant to commit find love where they least expect it… Right across the hall.

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is a neighbors and best friends to love story between Erika, who is a doctor and her very hot neighbor and bestie, Blake. She is into serious relationships, and he just wants casual and that's why they decided when they met to just be friends. 

One thing I really loved about this story is that we get to visit Pat's bar. If you are a fan of the authors other series, then you will enjoy getting a glimpse of previous characters. It was awesome that Blake and Erika live close enough to hang out and visit the bar.

This is a purely fun book. There is no extra drama. It's a best friends to lovers' story with lots of very sexy fantasies, heavy petting and sexy kisses. It's he falls first story with jealous moments and a very slow burn. And I mean BURN!! These two are very hot together.
