Title: Sawyer
Series: Alluring Indulgence #7
Author: Nicole Edwards
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
Release Date: March 2, 2015
From New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Nicole Edwards comes the seventh book in her Alluring Indulgence series, erotic romances featuring the Walker brothers from Coyote Ridge, Texas, and their sizzling-hot love interests.
Sawyer Walker has never run into problems with women. The female population tends to swarm toward him, in fact, and he’s never had a complaint.
But there’s one woman Sawyer has always had his eye on. A woman who won’t give him the time of day. In recent months, it would seem that Kennedy Endsley is opening up to Sawyer, but she’s got a few surprises in store for him. Because, as hard as she finds it to resist the handsome Walker brother, she won’t give in easily. Not when her heart is on the line.
"Will Work for Sex" -- from the first page of the first book of the Alluring Indulgence series, and it was right then that I fell in love with Sawyer Walker. And through each of the books, I've clamored for more of him, relishing the brief glimpses, and waiting for him to get his girl and his HEA.
AND IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH THE WAIT.
Sawyer Walker wants Kennedy Endsley. And this desire for her isn't a new thing... No, what's new is that, for once, getting the girl isn't a walk in the park. Sawyer's never had trouble with the ladies, but Kennedy is making him work for it. He's sure she is worth it though, so he's putting his all into breaking down her resistance...and making her his.
Argh, I FLOVE this series!!! It's absolutely, positively one of my favorites, and I was dying for this book. D.Y.I.N.G. Because Sawyer - irreverent, charming, protective Sawyer - has made me laugh, smile and swoon in turn throughout the course of the first six books, and this one was no different. Well, except for the fact it was basically all Sawyer, all the time. And that kinda made it perfection...
Kennedy and Sawyer were sensational in their cat-and-mouse game; Kennedy trying to ignore him and put him off, Sawyer trying to prove he was on the up-and-up and worthy of her attentions. I loved his persistence and her inability to shut him down once and for all. I loved their little moments together before they started to figure it out, when he was charming and she was immune...or so she thought. And holy hell, when they finally figured it out?! Hot. So hot. So very, very HOT.
There was a good amount of story here. It was easy enough to make Sawyer an enjoyable and quick read, with enough tension to keep me turning the pages. I loved the secondary story with Kennedy's father, as well as the set-up for the long-awaited (and much desired, especially after all that happened in Braydon), Brendon. I can't wait for more of these brothers -- and I'd be lying if I didn't say that I am also hoping for stories for their cousins and friends too (*cough Greyson and Jared cough*). Sawyer may be my favorite brother, but all of these good ol' boys have a place in my heart and on my Kindle.
Sawyer is the seventh book in the Alluring Indulgence series and can be read standalone, but you'd be missing out if you skipped the earlier books.
