The Maxwell Brothers, Books 1-3

Promise Me Forever.

As a divorced single father, I live by three rules:

1. Make sure every day my daughter, Paisley, knows she’s number one in my life. No. Matter. What.

2. Keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum.

3. Turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life.

When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny.

But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I'm breaking it already.

Hold Me Forever

The last thing I need to do is fall for hockey’s sexiest bad boy.

Helping celebrities rehabilitate their image is my job, and I’m a pro. I don’t make mistakes. And I definitely don’t flirt with clients. Ever. There is just one little problem with my newest client.

Tyler Maxwell is every woman’s dream come true. He’s hot, protective, and so damn tempting—especially when he's coaching kids’ hockey.

Every time he flexes those muscled arms, I can’t help but stare at them. And watching a semi-naked Tyler swim in a pool is no hardship whatsoever.

But when he catches me in the act and shamelessly flirts with me, I realize I’m in over my head.

Show Me Forever

I moved to Chicago six months ago, determined to finally open my own bakery. My landlady was this sweet woman who treated me like her granddaughter. Then she sold the house. Now the devil himself is my landlord and neighbor since I live in the guesthouse on his property. Declan Maxwell is moody, unreasonable, and takes himself far too seriously. Unfortunately for me, he’s also damn sexy.

When he shows up on my doorstep in the middle of the night ordering me to turn down the music, I give him hell. We go toe to toe like this almost every night. The man is impossible. But here’s the thing. I need a place to stay while I save for my business and this place is a steal.

Then one day I come home injured from work and he surprises me by taking care of me.

And kissing me.

And just like that, all my best intentions go up in smoke.

Love the books!!

I was in a book funk and came across this series. I enjoyed all 3 stories. I am a fan of the Maxwell brothers and of course Reese and her sister.

loved it

took a bit to get into this book, but once I was a cpl chapters in, I couldn't stop! heartwarming, funny and sexy.

Annoying narrator

The story is fine. Bit cliche with some writing issues but tolerable except that the female narrator is annoying. I gave up after the second book.

Book 1 is where it's at

Book one kept my attention. Book 2 and 3 were kind of monotonous and didn't have the full-bodied plot that book one had.

Nothing but fluff

If you are looking for fluffy HEAs, these books are right up your alley.
