Review

4 stars

This is a great little novella that fits into the Until series, but can also be read as a standalone. It’s not a novella that you need to read to follow the series, but is a fun little extra as November’s Dad, Mike, gets the happy ending he wasn’t even looking for.

Mike had a bad experience with love, but he’s happy now being a part of November’s life, and a member of the extended Mayson family, without having to think about a new relationship.

Kathleen has just returned to town, the divorced single mother to an almost-18 year old. She’s had a rough time, but she’s not prepared to give up on finding somebody to share her life with.

Mike and Kate went to high school together and when they reunite they fall into a ‘friends with benefits’ situation. But Kat slowly comes to the realisation that that isn’t enough anymore, that she wants – and deserves – more.

“If we’re going to do this, I want all of it, not just the sex”…
“You got me, Kat.”

This is such a sweet romance! Like the rest of the books in the Until series, it’s angst free, allowing us to revel in the sweet sexiness of the romance as Mike and Kat decide to make a real go of it.

I loved Mike and Kat as characters. They are straightforward and no-nonsense, and their openness with each other was gorgeous. I loved that Kat had the courage to follow her heart and tell Mike what she wanted, putting what she already had at risk for something potentially greater, and thank God, it worked for her! And Mike stole my heart as the sweet, yet seriously hot Grandpa – which sounds all kinds of wrong, but damn is he sexy!

“You’ve been mine since you walked back into my life.”

I also love how Kat’s son, Brandon, became such a big part of the story. He is dealing with some pretty heavy issues, and he and Mike together are something really special as Mike is there for him in just the way he needs. Their relationship unfolds beautifully and is a fantastic part of the book. And, of course, November and the rest of the Mayson crew all have an appearance, and I loved seeing all of them.

Kat and Mike’s love story is a gorgeous little read and I finished this novella with a big grin on my face at the sweet swooniness of it all.

I loved it – 4 stars.
