The Blurb: Bearded, bad-boy barber Knox prefers to live his life the way he takes his coffee: Alone. Unless you count his basset hound, Waylon. Knox doesn’t tolerate drama, even when it comes in the form of a stranded runaway bride.

Naomi wasn’t just running away from her wedding. She was riding to the rescue of her estranged twin to Knockemout, Virginia, a rough-around-the-edges town where disputes are settled the old-fashioned way…with fists and beer. Usually in that order.

Too bad for Naomi her evil twin hasn’t changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi’s car and cash, Tina leaves her with something unexpected. The niece Naomi didn’t know she had. Now she’s stuck in town with no car, no job, no plan, and no home with an 11-year-old going on thirty to take care of.

There’s a reason Knox doesn’t do complications or high-maintenance women, especially not the romantic ones. But since Naomi’s life imploded right in front of him, the least he can do is help her out of her jam. And just as soon as she stops getting into new trouble he can leave her alone and get back to his peaceful, solitary life.

At least, that’s the plan until the trouble turns to real danger.


My Review


5 Everything I wanted Stars



 OMG I loved this damn book so much. This was my first Lucy Score book and I'm obsessed. I was totally hooked from the first few pages and I every time I had to sit the book down to do things like cook for my kids, take a shower or go to bed I thought about this book the whole time. I couldn't wait to get back to it and see what happened next. I was so engrossed in Naomi and Knox's life that I've been having a book hangover for the last two days. I haven't read any WOW books in a while( you know the books that are so good they stick with you forever) This book was definitely a WOW book for me. I loved every single thing about this book and I wouldn't change anything.


Knox was so hot. I fell madly in love with the grumpy, tattooed, sexy, giving, and protective Knox. He could do no wrong in my book. Even when he was being a Jerk and there were a few times he was showing his ass I still understood him, empathized with him, and loved him. Naomi was just as amazing. No matter what life threw at her she just kept going. Making the best of her life. She was smart, sweet, strong, and she had such a big heart it was hard not to love her and hope she got everything she dreamed of. Waylay was so cute. I loved that little girl like she was a real person. I felt her pain, and her fear to love and trust. I loved how well she handled all the bad stuff in her young life and I loved her potty mouth lol.




Knox and Naomi were so good together. I felt their love, their passion through the pages of this book. Their connection felt real. The book really took it's time deeply developing their relationship. The timing was perfect not too fast and not too slow. It was easy to see Knox and Naomi were made for each other. I loved them as a couple. Not only did I love the main couple I loved the secondary characters as well. They were all so well written and interesting that I couldn't help but love them too. Nash, Lucy, Sloane, Liza, Stef, Fi, and Lina were all great and I am hoping they all got their own books. Nash and Lina had some sparks. So did Lucy and Sloane. I loved that Lina (who was Knox's ex) wasn't catty or mean. She didn't try to come between Naomi and Knox she was just friendly to Naomi, and all around a cool person. The town was great and helpful. This book had it all. It was sweet, sexy, heart warming, and funny. I loved the ending and the bonus epilogue was so cute. Lucy Score now has a new fangirl and I have to go see what other books of hers I need to buy!
