About this listen
When I let my most embarrassing secret slip to the person I wanted it kept from most of all.
Damn you, tequila.
I'm a grown woman. I turned thirty this year, and I've been running my own business for the last decade, a dream I made a reality all on my own. I have an amazing group of friends. Life is good. I'm happy.
Well, except for one little problem I'm still a virgin.
How did this happen? How did I manage to live this long without ever making it past second base? I don't know. Maybe it just never felt right. Maybe I was waiting for something. Or someone.
When local football star Foster McKenna moves into my bed & breakfast for a long stay while his own house is being built, I know it's him. He's the one I've been waiting for. I'm finally ready to get rid of this V-card, once and for all, and Foster is just the man to divest me of it. I've been crushing on him for months, and now that were here, all alone in this big house.
But when a little liquid courage turns into a full-on bender, I accidentally let my secret slip. And all the things I liked about Foster his honesty, his integrity, his kindness and strength of will turn out to be the bane of my existence. Despite being obviously attracted to me, he won't give me what I want. He's trying to protect me. From him. From myself.
Well, screw that. If he won't rid me of this godforsaken virginity, I'll find someone who will. Then maybe he'll see me as a woman, and not some fragile flower he needs to protect.
Oh, but he doesn't like that idea.
Not one little bit.

Foster is part of the Branston Bandits and has avoided relationships. He goes to the small town his teammates Riggs & Miles have settled down in and decides to settle down there. Hadley is the owner of the local bed & breakfast. When Riggs needs a place to stay while his house is being built he ends up staying her bed & breakfast.
I loved seeing Riggs grow and fall for Hadley. Both characters have been through things in the past. What happens when his house is finished? Will they get a happy ending together? I have enjoyed this series!

Hadley is the sweetest ever! I felt bad for her because she didn't believe she was beautiful. Foster was just what she needed. He helped her by showing her how worthy, special, beautiful, and wonderful she truly is. And Hadley returned the favor by showing him that he was worthy of love and it was something he could have in his life.
Even though Hadley turned out to be a virgin, this book had some amazing spicy scenes that worked their way up to PIV sex. I especially loved the fact that Piper James portrayed that losing your viriginty doesn't mean that it has to hurt. I always hate it when books make it seem like that is just something you have to deal with when in fact that isn't the case.
I can't wait to see what Piper James delights us with next:)
This story really came to life!

One night, a drunken confession about her virginity changes how Foster approaches her. Hadley decides that if Foster won’t be her first, she’ll find someone who will. But when Hadley starts dating, all bets are off. Foster makes his feelings for Hadley known and they begin to build something real.
Cecily Foster and James Amherst did a wonderful job bringing life to Hadley and Foster. I’ve truly enjoyed this series.

Hadley is the owner of a local bed & breakfast, a house she inherited from her grandmother nearly a decade ago. A business that she started on a dream, and while she’s done well, it gets hard sometimes. So when local a football star & friend of her best friend’s fiancé needs a place to stay while his house is being built, she finds herself with a long term resident.
Being a business owner for the better part of her adult life has not afforded Hadley to be well versed in the dating scene. And while she finds herself possessing quite a crush on her current resident, she keeps her awkward desires to herself. At least, until one night of extra tequila shots & a drunken confession. One she hopes he forgets.
As their relationship progresses, I loved watching Foster’s patience and care for Hadley. She wanted to jump in head first to a physical relationship with no regard to future outcomes. But Foster is convinced that he can’t be the man she needs long-term. But when the right person comes along, we find that our reservations about relationships seem to go out the door. And this is exactly what happened with Foster. He finds that his hesitance to fall into a relationship just simply doesn’t apply to Hadley. He wants desperately to give her everything she’s ever wished for. With his skills both as a handyman & a chef, he finds himself becoming an asset not only to Hadley, but to her bed & breakfast as a whole.
But what happens when his house is finished being built? What happens if he gets traded to a different team? Hadley has a life, a home, and a business that she loves dearly…he could never take her away from that.
Audiobook Review:
Cecily Foster & James Amherst’s narration was executed perfectly. Foster & Hadley’s patient & caring relationship came through in the voices of these two. They completely personified these characters bringing them to life.
Foster is book boyfriend material!
