Description

A jilted bride. Her brother’s ex-buddy. An affair would be crazy…right?

Chloe Kingston’s life is exactly how she needs it: safe and stable. Right up until her reliable, low-risk fiancé jilts her on their fairy-tale wedding day. As she works her way through the reception champagne—and wonders where she’s going to live—she stumbles into her brother Linc’s ex-best friend.

If only Beckett Daniels were hideous. But he’s not. He’s everything her erstwhile groom was not. Hot. Sexy. Dangerous. And she’s just buzzed enough to want all that Greek-god gorgeousness to show her the kind of fun she’s been missing.

Beck thrives on calculated risks, but taking advantage of Linc’s little sister isn’t one of them. What he can do is haul her tipsy, tulle-clad, tempting little butt to the bridal suite to sleep it off. Then move her into his spare room—which has the satisfying side effect of driving her brother crazy.

They can’t remain platonic roommates for long. Not when the sexual attraction sizzles out of control. But when tragedy threatens Beck, pain from his past reminds them both that life doesn’t come without risks…and this time, they're gambling with their hearts.

    So predictable. After you read the first one in the series they all have the same structure. They are easy and quick to read and the characters are likable but it’s just the same old song and dance.

    4.5 Stars  This is book 2 in The Kingston Family series and it features Chloe Kingston and Beckett Daniels. She’s got a lot to figure out now that her life isn’t going exactly like she planned.  She’s got this gorgeous, sexy man who has come to her rescue after she was left at the alter.  Can she have a “just for fun” good time with Beck while she puts her life back together?   Fabulous story line with awesome characters!  This is a shorter than normal book but the story was fantastically complete with no holes in anybody’s thread. I can’t wait to read the next book in this family drama filled, sexy series!
  • Loved book 2!

    The second book in the Kingston Family series was wonderful. Beck and Chloe hit it off in the lowest point of Chloes life. Beck was there for her after being left at the alter and saved her when she was drunk. Chloe’s brother thinks it was to get back at him since they have history between them. Seeing them go from friendship to trust and love was sexy and I could not put the book down. Waiting for her brothers, Xander and Dash’s books! Carly Phillips never disappoints. Even if you haven’t read Lincs book this is a stand-alone but I highly recommend reading every book from Carly Phillips. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
  • Loved it!
