After meeting Dare in the first book of the Pier 70 series,
Reckless, I was intrigued to find out what his back story was and what he was
hiding behind his fun and carefree persona. I was so happy to find I was going
to get a second chance romance!
Dare Davis is one of the owners of Pier 70 but fifteen years
back he was a young and in love but had his heart broken. He has learned over
the years not to give his heart so freely and trust in any other man, apart
from his best friends. It is when he is celebrating best friend Cam’s wedding that
his past rushes forward to meet him in amazing circumstances.
Noah Pearson has always regretted how things ended with his
first love and no one had ever come close or tempted him to have a close relationship
again. His main focus has been in his career as a fire fighter and his side
business in construction. When his step sister invites him to escort her to her
best friend and boss, Gannon’s wedding, he did not realise the consequences of
his saying yes.
This was another fabulous book in this new series and yet
another that kept me transfixed to read it through the night. I love the
intensity and passion that Nicole Edwards feeds into her characters in that the
reader can feel the chemistry and desire oozing from the page.
Both Noah and Dare have a lot of the past’s issues to
resolve and the path is not always smooth but it is always wrapped with a whole
lot of hotness and a degree of heart wrenching second chance love.
I loved picking up with Cam and Gannon again, especially on
their wedding aboard the love boat (I mean ship!) to see how they have evolved
since their HEA in the first book’s ending. It was also interesting to see the
snippets of things to come between Teague and Hudson. Well I hope so as that is
going to be one hot angsty read for sure. Amazing as always from Nicole Edwards
and another five star read for me.
Getting out of that cabin was the only option Dare had. That or he was going to strip Noah naked and ride him until the sun came up. Or vice versa. He didn’t really care which. Okay, yes, he did, but now was not the time for that. He needed to gather his thoughts.
Plus, he needed to return Roan’s key and let him know that he wouldn’t need a place to crash after all.
Then he needed to find food.
God, he was starving. He hadn’t eaten much at the reception because he’d been too nervous. But even if he had, he would still be hungry. That was how he rolled.
By the time they emerged from their cabin, it seemed most of the other cruise-goers had called it a night. The halls were deserted, as was the main deck, where they ended up after making a quick pass through the casino and then deciding against any more gambling for the evening. As it was, the wager between them was steep enough. Dare knew he didn’t have anything else to bet.
So he settled for pizza and soda, which they devoured outside.
For the next hour, they walked around, close but not too close. When he yawned for the third time, Noah suggested they head back, and Dare reluctantly agreed.
He was edgy, he couldn’t deny that. Although they were alone out here—for the most part—being alone in their cabin was decidedly different. No one could happen upon them in there, which meant their clothes could fall off. And then he could… What if he tripped and his dick slipped right into Noah’s mouth? That could be awkward.
Well, the last part wasn’t too bad of an idea, provided it didn’t result in any damage to his dick.
However, that wasn’t going to happen tonight. Not on purpose and not by accident.
