Bound to the Bachelor

Bound to the Bachelor by Sarah Maberry was an adorable, fast read. This story was a typical story of two people who avoid each other in order to deny their attraction, but it has a twist. I enjoyed how surly and sarcastic Lily & Beau were to each other in the beginning and then how their relationship transformed as they fell in love. The threat to Lily propelled the feelings of this couple, and helped move the story along while adding dimension at the same time. I also enjoyed finding out a bit more about Andi & Heath, who were in a previous Marietta book. I give this book 4 stars along with a strong recommendation to read.

Your date with Marietta local Beau Bennett includes a day on the slopes at Big Sky Resort, complete with a sumptuous meal in the Resort’s fanciest fine dining restaurant and door-to-door transport. Dig deep to secure the attentions of one of Montana’s most eligible – and elusive – bachelors.

Lily Taylor knows Beau Bennett dislikes her, but that won’t stop her from asking him to volunteer for the Bachelor Auction she’s organized to help her friend Molly provide for her tragically injured son, Josh. If Beau’s gorgeous face, piercing blue eyes and chiseled body inspires the women of Marietta to dig into their pockets for a good cause, then Lily will do whatever it takes to secure his participation.

Beau Bennett isn’t sure how he wound up on the auction block being eyed up by hundreds of eager women, but he knows who to blame for it – Lily Taylor, the sexy, distracting, off-limits best friend of his kid sister. As far as he’s concerned, the sooner this nightmare is over, the better.

The last thing either of them expects is for Lily to wind up bidding on – and winning – Beau, or that their date will lead to Beau stepping in to save Lily when her past comes back to haunt her. As Beau does his best to keep Lily safe, they discover that maybe they don’t dislike each other quite as much as they thought.

In fact, maybe it’s just the opposite…
