Is three the charm?

Lauren Cooper is on her way to her life’s dream. She’s financed and finished college and law school all on her own. And she’s up for partner at the largest law firm in Indigo Bay. There’s nothing to stop her from concentrating everything on achieving that goal. Until Jesse Brewster, the man who broke her heart twice, shows up sleeping off the night before on the beach, and she’s called in to serve as his public defender.

Looking to make a new start after the racing accident that ended his lucrative motocross career and sent him spiraling into darkness, the former champion had envisioned an entirely different scenario if he ever saw Lauren again. That vision was more along the lines of the successful businessman he’d be once he rehabbed the seaside mansion he’s inherited from his uncle and sold it to open a custom bike shop.

Sparks fly between them, and Jesse vows to fan those sparks once he’s got the project successfully underway. But someone starts sabotaging it, putting Jesse behind on the deadline he has to meet to get the property off the Indigo Bay Planning Board’s condemned property list. And Lauren has a sick suspicion that her bosses are somehow involved.

Jesse and Lauren had once promised they’d wait for each other while they pursued their career dreams. Despite that broken promise, neither can deny the love that’s still between them. But now that they are on the cusp of reaching those dreams, are they willing to risk everything to renew that love?

Team Macachek: Fall in love with the strong women and fearless men of the motocross circuit.

This is the 12th novel in the Indigo Bay series, but all books can be read as standalones.

My thoughts: SWEET ENTANGLEMENT  is a sweet romance by Ms. Gordon. It is based around some of her motocross heros that appeared in a previous novella and is also part of a series (stand-alone) of stories by different authors set in upper New York state. 


This is not a Christian book and there is no faith message. More conservative readers might have issues with both hero and heroine drinking, but both were just mentioned once and not again and otherwise is was sweet and clean. No bad words, no sex, just a sweet romance. 

I enjoyed getting to know Lauren and Jesse and their history both together and apart. I would've liked to know what happens with Lauren's job, but otherwise the story wrapped up nicely. I'd like to know more about what happens with Jesse's future plans, too, but we'll assume its a HEA.

Fans of clean reads (not faith-based) will love SWEET ENTANGLEMENT and want to read more by Ms. Gordon 

I was given a copy free. All opinions are my own.
