Review: The Best of All ( The Best Men #2) by Karla Sorensen

 



He’s commitment phobic. She believes in happy endings. The twist of fate that binds them is a surprise they never saw coming in a bittersweet romance about instant family—and not-so-instant love.

A decade-old animosity is the only thing Liam Davies and Zoe Valentine have in common. Until their mutual best friends pass away and they’re appointed co-guardians of the trusting couple’s precocious toddler, Mira.

Liam is committed only to professional football. Relationship-wise, he’s even better at defense. Still wrestling with a tough childhood, he’s not cut out to be a father. Why his late best buddy believed in him, Liam has no idea.

An optimistic romantic, Zoe has always dreamed of a fairy-tale life. But even though Liam’s biceps make her dizzy and she can’t stop thinking about his lips on hers, he’s not exactly Prince Charming. With or without that brooding Brit, she is determined to make good on her friends’ last wish.

Forced into a predicament they never expected, Zoe and Liam are discovering things about each other that could scorch through boundaries, warm hearts, and change minds. And best of all, with their shared love for a pint-size surprise like Mira, they might just turn a house into a home.

What I thought about The Best of All

Zoe Valentine has always wanted a husband, a family and a happy home but that wasn't in the cards for her in her first marriage. When her friends are killed in an accident leaving a small daughter, Zoe is tapped to take care of the cute little Mira. And so is Liam Davies, another family friend. There's only one problem -- Zoe and Liam don't really get along.

This is my second book from this author and I've really enjoyed this two book series. It's satisfied my need for a romance I can fall into.  I loved these two characters and was really rooting for them to it together so they could be together and it takes most of the book to get there. Liam has some childhood baggage that messes him up, but underneath it all, he is attracted to Zoe and has been for a very long time.  It's great to see him get out of his own way and figure out how he can truly be happy.  I loved his journey and he figures it all out with some help from his friends.

I really enjoyed this contemporary romance.  Zoe is sweet, and Liam is just right for her. They are great together.
