Trust Me by Lacey Black

(Rivers Edge Book 1)

Synopsis:

After all of the devastating betrayals by the one she loved, Twenty-two year old Avery Stevens has spent three years raising her daughter alone, with her family and best friend as a support system, never leaving her small hometown of Rivers Edge, Missouri. Though Rivers Edge holds the pain of her past, it also holds the one person she wants but can’t have – her brother’s best friend, Maddox Jackson. When she learns the attraction might not be one-sided, will Avery be able to trust Maddox with the one thing she’s held onto tightly for the past few years?

Police officer Maddox Jackson is a ladies’ man with one foot out the door. Never planning to settle down, Maddox fights the attraction he feels for his best friend’s little sister, Avery. But can he continue to fight it when his body and his heart are leading him to the one woman he shouldn’t want?

When secrets are finally exposed, can Avery and Maddox trust each other enough to overcome the past, handle the present, and preserve their future? Can Avery trust Maddox with her heart? Will Maddox be able to convince Avery to take the chance?

My Review:  4 out of 5

This is the first book in a series, but each book is for a different couple so can be read as a stand alone story.

I enjoyed the book and I liked the storyline, there is a few laughs, some drama and a lovely romance between single mum Avery and her brother's best friend Maddox.

I thought that Maddox was a really good character, he was just the right mix of Alpha sexiness combined with sweetness and caring.  Avery had some issues to work through and so creates some drama and angst but nothing overly heavy.

It is a sweet easy to read romance and I thought this was a good introduction to the other people in the town and I look forward to reading the other stories in the series.

Would I read the next in the series or another story by this Author?

Yes, I look forward to reading other books in the series by this author.

 

Would I recommend someone else to read this story?

Yes, it was a lovely romance story with just a touch of angst.  A good read.
