I know he’s my forever, but will our stubbornness get in the way of our happily ever after?

What a great surprise to round off 2019 with a novella that catches up with what’s going on in the lives of Ivy Colt and Brock Marshall. We first met them in Guardian and I welcomed reading more from this pair, especially Ivy and her sassy ways that test the brooding alpha male, Brock. Yep, Ivy loves to tease him due to their age gap.
Two years later, still very much in love and engaged, they’ve defeated all the odds. These two should be happier than ever but when they hit a bit of a rough patch, it made me wonder if they’d make it down the aisle. Meant to be together, they both have such a stubborn streak.
Brock and Ivy are as passionate as ever inside and outside the bedroom. The chemistry was always off the charts in Guardian but in Husband, it’s extremely palpable. Planning a wedding always has its ups and downs and Ivy and Brock’s circumstances were no different. It was great to see Jude, Ivy’s best friend and although Brock always had a touch of jealousy where Jude was concerned, it was great to see the fun banter between these guys. Also, Ivy’s mum put in an appearance and whilst they haven’t always had the best of relationships, it was evident she was happy for her daughter regardless of her reservations.
This very enjoyable read was well-executed with a dash of steam here and there; normal from the dynamic writing duo. Bringing their ideas together, one wouldn’t notice this is two authors. Everything always merges perfectly. I highly recommend picking up the first book Guardian to appreciate the story told in Husband. Five well-deserved stars for a deliciously seductive read told from a dual point of view, giving the reader an insight into both of the protagonists’ minds. Hoping that maybe we get to see a story about Jude as he was a very likeable character and everyone deserves a happy ending.
The daughter of my oldest friend is now my responsibility. I expected a little girl in pigtails. What I got was a Lolita with an attitude that drives me insane, and a body that fuels every man’s fantasies.
She’s everywhere I turn. Tormenting me, teasing me, taunting me; wrapping herself around my every thought. Invading my life in more ways than one, Ivy Colt is my poison.
I know I shouldn’t want her, but like her namesake, she’s an itch I need to scratch.
