Cooper.

My name came with big skates to fill.

At the top of my game, I had everything I wanted, or so I thought. .Being traded to Dallas was not what I was expecting but neither were the divorce papers I was served.

Now I’m a single dad in a city that isn’t my home. .

Erika.

Handed my biggest client when I was twenty-two made my dreams come true. .

Over time, our work relationship changed, and we grew closer, leaning on each other for support. .

He was my rock, my best friend..

Then one drunken night changed everything, and I saw what was in front of me all along. .

I just hope that when the dust settles, we won’t regret it.

Review

4.5 stars!

I love this book! It’s sexy, fun, swoony and gorgeously romantic, a wonderful example of why I love this series (and all of the books that came before it), and it was everything that I wanted for my beloved ‘Mini Cooper’.

✔ Best friends to lovers
✔ Hot hockey player
✔ Single Dad
✔ Angst-free
✔ Insanely sexy
✔ Awesome ‘Something So’ series tie-in!

Fans of Natasha Madison will know all about ‘Mini Cooper’. He is the son of Matthew and Karrie (from Something So Perfect), the Grandson of Cooper and Parker (from Something So Right), and therefore connected to the entire Something So crew. He also plays hockey for the Dallas NHL Team and so is a part of the Only One family. Cooper is now all grown up and out on his own, and oh holy damn!

Cooper got himself traded from NYC to Dallas in order to make his wife happy. It’s not a move he wanted to make, and though it wasn’t a happy marriage, he wanted to stay true to his vows, make his marriage work, and provide his two little girls with a family. But even the change of scenery didn’t help. He stuck it out for a few years, until his wife instigated a divorce and he is devastated and feeling like a failure. Luckily, he has his best friend and agent, Erika, by his side to help him get through it.

Erica and Cooper have been working together since Cooper got his first big break. Over the years they have become the closest of friends, and since his marriage imploded, they’ve become even closer. They are each other’s rocks, there for everything, they talk every day and spend as much time together as they can. They are pretty much in a relationship, just without the sex and romance, but there’s never been a hint of anything romantic happening between them… until alcohol and one steamy kiss blows that completely out of the water.

Oh my God. I said this book is sexy… this book is INSANELY sexy! Cooper and Erika are on freaking fire together. Passionate, intense, and kinda filthy, they are all over each other. And although Erika initially has some doubts, Cooper, like his father before him, recognises what he’s found, the start of something big, and he’s not about to let Erika get away.

“Cooper,” I whisper when he stops kissing me, and his forehead touches mine. “We have to forget this happened,” I say, looking into his eyes. I’m expecting him to agree with me. I’m expecting him to tell me it’ll be for the best, and we can put it behind us. What I’m not expecting is for the next words to come out of his mouth.
His mouth goes to a smirk. “Not a chance in fucking hell.”

Their friendship effortlessly (and passionately) shifts into a relationship that is easy and natural, and so damn sweet. They are so right together, you can feel that they belong together, and I loved watching them embrace their feelings and just go for it. The sex continues to be insane. Like, porn-worthy sex with multiple positions, lots of dirty talk, and too many orgasms to count! All of it a reflection of the playful-yet-intense dynamic between these two, and their growing feelings for each other.

They do have some issues to overcome, but there is no angst or stupid behaviour. Cooper refuses to allow it (and God, I love that!). It’s just two people navigating a change in their relationship and all that that means, allowing themselves to fall, and I loved watching it happen.

“Whatever happens, you will never lose me.”

The rest of the Only One couples all feature, and I loved catching up with them. But one of the best parts of this book for me was the family beach holiday with the entire Stone/Grant crew. This is a fantastically hilarious and close-knit group. Everyone is all grown up, and there are a whole bunch of new characters introduced as we got to meet more of the kids (most of who will have stories told as the series continues), and Matthew and Max’s snarky bromance continues to be endlessly entertaining.

“Allison!” Matthew shouts to Allison, who is sitting with Vivi and Franny. “Where is your husband’s leash?”
“She’s the one who wears the collar,” Max chides, winking at Allison whose cheeks turn pink, and I almost die when Matthew pushes him. My mouth opens in shock as Michael just grimaces.
“You guys are gross.”

This is such a fun read. I loved seeing Cooper all grown up and the single dad to two adorable little girls – seriously, they are just gorgeous, and the scenes with them together are so sweet. The romance is beautiful, swoony (and hot… did I mention the hotness?), and he and Erika are an amazing couple.

There’s an epilogue which finishes off the book really nicely, and a lead into Michael’s book up next (Michael is the son of Max and Allison).

I’m loving this series, and can’t wait to continue on.

4.5 stars!
