I love that they were trying to understand one another, be honest even if it was scary – they listened to one another.

I’m more of a lover of the “enemies to lovers” trope…but maybe I’m emotional because of PMS, but this one had me in my feels. But it continues when she comes back except the physical attraction is now an issue – they want each other…but the challenge is trying to decide if it’s worth ruining the friendship for and I love that they make it work. They go from friends…and yes I think I can say they are friends even though it’s been only a few months of really texting each other. + The best part of this whole book was Hannah and Fox’s relationship. She’s trying to work on being the “leading lady” in certain aspects of her life, like with her job and with Fox. I loved Hannah from book one because she seems down to earth, she’s more practical about things and even has a normal job. + I love that we are back in Westport, where the ocean is near, and the Bellinger sisters are together again but this one is all about Hannah, the supporting actress, the one in Piper’s shadow, the sweet sister who has her head all up into music. Life has been so busy for me the past few weeks that this book was exactly what I needed to sweep me away for a little bit, fall in love with the characters falling in love and not think about my problems 😅. Helping her flirt with another guy is pure torture, but maybe if Fox can tackle his inner demons and show Hannah he’s all in, she’ll choose him instead? Except now she’s walking around in a towel, sleeping right across the hall, and Fox is fantasizing about waking up next to her for the rest of his life and… and… man overboard! He’s fallen for her, hook, line, and sinker. Living with his best friend should have been easy. As the line between friendship and flirtation begins to blur, Hannah can’t deny she loves everything about Fox, but she refuses to be another notch on his bedpost. Armed with a few tips from Westport’s resident Casanova, Hannah sets out to catch her coworker’s eye… yet the more time she spends with Fox, the more she wants him instead. In fact, she’s nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life.

She knows he’s a notorious ladies’ man, but they’re definitely just friends. Now, Hannah’s in town for work, crashing in Fox’s spare bedroom. But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is. She’s immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his… personality? And wants to be friends? Bizarre. Everyone knows he’s a guaranteed good time–in bed and out–and that’s exactly how he prefers it. King crab fisherman Fox Thornton has a reputation as a sexy, carefree flirt.
