Blurb:Cade and Abby have a history. Years ago they were in love. Undeclared and unrequited, Cade waited until Abby was old enough for him to declare his love. Abby wanted nothing more than she wanted Cade.
But something happened.
Abby pushed Cade away and he never knew why. Since then, sparks fly when they’re together. Antagonizing one another has become their favorite sport. The only problem is… it’s all a front. They bicker because they both want the same thing – each other. A wedding brings them together and Cade is determined to learn Abby’s secret. He’ll do whatever it takes to win her love.
Meet the King Family of El Camino Real – five brothers, one sister and a legacy as big as Texas.
*18+ Contains Adult language and situations*
The sex scenes were a bit much in this book but I liked them as stand alone scenes. Cade was a bit odd to me. His background story was great but as far as his personality went, I was left wanting. I don’t know, I just felt he went about his attraction to Abby in a weird way. Like instead of confronting her and laying it all out he just allowed doubt and confusion to dictate his actions. Then he just decided enough was enough and went for it. I was scratching my head like, dude, make up your mind how you’re gonna go about this. It was all over the place it.
Then there was Abby, I did NOT like her. From gate, she came off as rude, condescending and way too demanding. I wouldn’t like it if a guy treated a girl this way and turn about is fair play in this. I get her background, I do. But it was exaggerated so much that it became over the top and unbelieveable. So much so that when the climax came it was a bit anti. I just really didn’t care about her happiness after a while. Honestly, I wasn’t that invested in either of them to care so I guess they deserved each other. I won’t be reading more in this series.
It sounds like these characters needed a little help!
