My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Aria Cook was raised by her father and is definitely not a girly girl. She works for her father in his bar A shot of Whiskey, where you give as good as you get and flirt for a bigger tip. She is one hell of a straight shootin, sassy young woman. She has all she needs, friends and family. She has her two best friends in the world, Cassie and Callie, her father who she loved fiercely, her job in the bar and her job dancing for the Oklahoma City Thunder basketball team. But she has know heartache, that heartache found her leaving behind her dreams, more than one dream. One dream she can live without, the second is keeping her from fully living her life. Know one knows the second one, it is something she has kept hidden from all who love her, one that she fights to keep hidden every day, one that will stop her from finding love.

Trevin Anderson loves women. If it has two legs and wears a skirt he’s your man, a man who is a love them and leave them kind of man, a man who doesn’t get attached, doesn’t do relationships. Women know what he’s like and what he wants so it’s a win win. He is also famous he is an NBA athlete, he plays for the Oklahoma City Thunder basketball team a job he absolutely loves. He has all he needs and loves in his life, his family and his best friends, he adhores his baby sister and love his mum. But when he meets a certain red headed Thunder dancer he starts to think that maybe, just maybe there is space in his life for more. Slowly but slowly he is trying to break down her walls, walking away is not an option, he will make her see he is boyfriend material.

Will Aria let Trevin in? Will she finally share her secret from the past? Will her past catch up to her? Will Trevin finally give up because it is too hard to fight for?

This is the third book in the series and is just as good as the other two. Ashlie weaves a story that pulls you in and you feel like you are right there with these wonderful loving and funny characters. This is one series you do not want to miss.
