My Review: 3 out of 5
This is the third book in the series, and the first book I have read by this author.
This book had some things that I liked and some things that I didn't.
I enjoyed the storyline of the best friends finally realising that they are right for each other, but I didn't like the female lead character Tamilyn that much, which made it hard to get interested in her stories outcome.
The basic synopsis of the story is that she admits that she loves the best friend and he says he loves her too, but she still continues to date his cousin as she thinks he is a nice guy and wants to see where it leads too.. I don't understand why Ruston would put up with that. Maybe I needed to hear more from his point of view to understand why he was willing to do so.
The background in the gym which ties the book series together was fleeting and I felt was more of an introduction for the next book which features the cousin she rejects, as his story involves the gym.
Overall it was an OK read but I would have enjoyed the story more or liked the character more if Tamilyn maybe didn't admit she loved Ruston so early on, but continued to date both until she worked out her feelings. Once she did admit she loved one over the other then make that choice.
Would I read the next in the series or another story by this Author?
Yes, I did like the writing style, so I would look at the earlier books in the series.
