The Trouble with Flings

The Silvers at Silver Island #2

by Melissa Foster

Blurb:

Sometimes you have to break all the rules to find everything you never knew you wanted.

Come along for the fun, sexy ride as billionaire Fitz Silver pursues his biggest challenge yet—taming wild child Jennifer Stone. Loaded with heat, humor, and heart, this steamy, small-town, standalone romance is unputdownable. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a happily ever after that will leave you thinking about it long after you read the last page.

​Silver Island’s golden boy Fitz Silver keeps his business dealings clean, his affairs private, and fulfills every promise he makes.

Infuriatingly so. He’s six-plus feet of gentleman in the streets and an unrelenting alpha in the sheets. I should know. I enjoyed a single scorching night in his bed over the summer. But contrary to Fitz being every woman’s fantasy, he’s my worst nightmare.

I’m a risk taker, a rule breaker. I wasn’t looking for more than a little vacation fun, but that passionate night knocked me off my feet.

When a chance encounter brings me face-to-face with the man who ruined me for all others, I know better than to land in his bed again. Unfortunately, outside my job as a high school principal, I’m not known for my good decisions. Once again I plan to leave Mr. Silver and our surprising connection behind, but he’s annoyingly unforgettable…and then two pink lines change everything.

Review:

I’m not usually a fan of the accidental pregnancy trope, or black cat heroines for that matter, but I know that pretty much anything in the hands of a good author is going to work. And Foster is one of my favorites so I didn’t hesitate to jump right in. She proved me right because I really fell for Jennifer and Fitz together.

Jennifer has been hurt in the past, majorly, and it has cause her to build up some pretty big walls. Fitz on the other hand has always been kind of a gold child, the “good one”. He’s also a natural carer, a nurturer at heart. One with the patience and understanding to wait out Jennifer’s fears and concerns after they reconnect and spend a wonderful week together. The man sets out to woo her, even if she doesn’t (understandably) make it easy. An unexpected baby just gives him an easier time to show that he’s the man for her.

I gotta say I was a little worries when I looked down and saw that I was about 60% of the way thru the book and things were looking really good for these two. With that much story left … third act breakup? Some kind of trouble for them? But Foster handled the rest with the same care as the beginning of their story. None of their troubles were just there to add angst, they were understandable concerns and issues that the two needed to work thru together. I loved their deepening relationship and the life they were working on creating together.

And it wouldn’t be a book about the Silver Island group without some shenanigans but it’s handled with good humor and fun. Like with everything, they live big, laugh big, & love big and that applies to Jennifer and her family as well. I always get giddy when a new Foster book comes out, to revisit this boisterous caring group, and this was no exception.
