Once Upon a Wild Thing (Heartbreakers #3) by Lauren Blakely

BLURB

My brother's best friend has a proposition for me. Have I mentioned he's a sexy single dad? Tell me more...

There are a million reasons why Miles Hart isn't the man I should date but allow me to enumerate the top three. He's friends with my brother, he's a single dad, and he's a sexy, in-demand rock star. He might as well wear an off-limits, totally unavailable, and don't-even-attempt-to-ride-this-ride sign.
Then he asks me to be his plus-one when his band plays at his high school reunion, and the night unfolds in ways I never expect.
***
I have three good reasons to keep my hands off Roxy Sterling--her brother's my business manager and good buddy, my kid is the center of my world, and the last time I fell hard for a woman I was burned so badly that my interest in relationships has gone up in flames. But once I bring Roxy's body next to mine on the dance floor, I want all the not-safe-for-work things I can't have with her. So I make a proposition.
 
Then I learn exactly how risky we might be.

MY REVEIW

Once Upon a Wild Fling by Lauren Blakely can be read as a standalone, but personal opinion, as the final book three of her new Heartbreakers series - you are missing out if you don't read all three!
If you can relate to the struggles of dating, pregnancy & parenthood - and love a great friends to lovers story, you are going to simply adore this book.  Another angsty, sexy & funny, contemporary romance from Blakely.  She delivers a story that brings you characters that are down to earth, hopeful & eager to love.  Full of "...fantastic wit, big heart..." in the pursuit of epic heart bursting happiness.
 
Be ready from the start to have a sore cheeks from smiling big at this funny, witty & endearing read.  Roxy is no stranger to all that can go wrong while looking for mister right in this busy modern age - where you don't necessarily need a relationship with a man to get what you want out of life.  A girl after my own heart "At the end of the day, nothing beats pulling on yoga pants and a sweatshirt." "Truth," While Miles, ever the dedicated brother & bandmate is "...laser-focused on music, singing, and taking care of this awesome kid."  What's not to love with a guy who is "...funny, sharp, and so damn good to his son."  So much angst, these two have lists of reasons why they would never work together.  Then a favor of the plus-one kind gleans all sorts of possibilities.  A sweat & sexy story of timing, moving on & taking chances. "The heartbreak and the hurt and the joy."  Filled with friends & family "...warmth, chased by hope." ~ a romantic & sweet heart warming - real struggles page turner.  
 
"You should just be friends forever with her." No wiser words.
