You can't hide from love...or revenge.
Dodge Loving wants revenge...and he's about to get it. On the cusp of closing a multi-billion-dollar luxury resort deal, Dodge can't afford for anything go wrong. But then a fiery redhead shows up, the paparazzi hot on her trail, and throws his world into chaos. He has to get rid of her. Immediately.
Harper Conner just wants to be left alone, but after slapping her cheating senator ex-husband during a televised press conference, she's a hot commodity. The ultra exclusive resort in Wyoming seems like the ideal place to hide--and work--so there's no way she's letting the Type-A jerk who runs the place fire her.
Despite the animosity sparking between them, Dodge and Harper can't keep their hands to themselves. This thing between them can't happen. It won't. But his mother has other ideas...and she's willing to do whatever it takes to make sure Harper and Dodge fall in love.
(Dirty Talking Hero, Interracial Romance, Corporate Cowboy, Multicultural, Sizzling Hot Romance)

Dodge and Harper

Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2021

Verified Purchase

Dodge runs The Retreat, an exclusive resort, where he meets Harper, fresh off a divorce. He thinks she's a corporate spy so doesn't trust her. She's just there to authenticate some diaries at his mother's request. They have their ups and downs before finally facing the truth. A fun story that will hopefully lead to books for his brothers as well. Highly recommended.

A nice light read.... I you know the type,I didn't love it but I didn't hate it, just a really strong like ..... Dodge ( I like this name but just wait til his Moms theme for him and his brothers names are reveled ) and Harper (Sorry,but sooo tired of masculine sounding names for women) are a good combo together but the chemistry for me was so/so to me , some where between lukewarm and hot and most of the time never getting where close to as hot as I'd liked or as close as the desc. Made me laugh hunk they would... Sadly most of their conflicts are just Dodge being a jerk and jumping to conclusions about Harper and her motives purely because it suit d his own messed up "needs" and Harper having to stand up for herself.... And the story finally resolves itself with Dodge just finally getting out of his own way... And while that can be said of us all in our own lives and more stories than I'm sure we'd care to count as interesting as the plot/story seemed to be at the start it didn't end up that way for me...the sex scenes were a little hot at times but over all it just didn't do it for me.... At the same time I liked too much to give it less than 4 stars and I honestly want to see what happens with Stone and Griff ;) I'm hoping we were introduced their future brides in this book ;) Skyler ,Stones best friend, I think she's already looking his direction even if he had isn't ;) and Amelia just started working for them but I'm sure Mom was pushing Harper,Skyler and Amelia to be friends for a reason ;) Her and the Universe ;)
I don't know what to say, I'm still conflicted on how much I liked the book but at the same thing me its definitely a keeper to retread again so me day ;) definitely worth my time and probably yours.... I hope you enjoy ;)

Rushing Temptation

Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2018

This is an interracial romance with Harper, a redheaded white female and Dodge, a black alpha male. Dodge's mother, May was white and his father, Hale was black. Dodge was bitter because he felt his maternal grandfather rejected them by cutting off his mother from his money and family. This bothered Dodge more than it seemed to bother his father, mother or his brothers, Griff and Stone. The story was not well developed with very little back story.

Harper and Dodge meet under adverse conditions but their sexual chemistry was immediate. There was very little growth toward a relationship with them. Harper was full of bitter, empty threats. Dodge distrusted Harper. They were both full of accusations and imagined betrayals. Still their sexual chemistry overruled their common sense and they engaged in hot, steamy sex. Afterwards they thought they had made a mistake. This went on for most of the book.

This book was rushed. Their relationship was rushed. The ending with a HEA was rushed and abrupt. There were humorous moments between Dodge and his brothers. Had more time been given to building the family's interpersonal relationships, the book would have been much better. Both May and Hale seemed like caricatures with no personality. She seemed to be sensible and understanding with little explanation of how she got there after being rejected by her father. Hale was the strong, silent type who ruled his boys with a word and a glance. More plot development would have made a world of difference. The premise of the book was good but too rushed.

Dodge Loving is trying to get backing for his retreat from the same company his grandfather is trying to get backing from. Dodge has a revenge plan against his grandfather and wants to keep all paparazzi away but Harper is there and they are following her. dodge is trying everything to get rid of Harper, but could it be that they belong together?

Avery Flynn has again made you love another family and can't wait for the next installment. This is the first of the trilogy and was a great start.

New series, same great snark. And yes, snark is a word! It's best used when describing Avery Flynn's humor! Which I love. If there is one thing though, that Flynn does best, it's the family dynamic. If you've read the Sweets Salvation Series, then you will enjoy the Loving family. I also love the interracial aspect. Not a lot of authors bring mixed ethnicity into their writing and it's nice to see.

Come out and meet the Lovings and I promise you will love them - especially May and Griff - definitely Griff
