Ever since Book 1 of the series I have wanted to read about Bobbie Jo and see her get her HEA.
In book 1, Rules of Protection (Tangled in Texas #1) we saw Bobbie Jo through the eyes of the heroine of that book Emily and at first she came across a bit like the villain, the other woman.

We know that she has a son and her ex is a dead beat, certainly no father to her boy.
This story starts when he son is 5.
I like the Hero and the heroine though there was a bit of push/pull which I am not keen on.

Humorous scenes with the child.

There are plenty of scenes with the previous couples from the series which is fantastic.

No o/w or o/m drama.

Her ex is around quite early on in the story but no romance between them.

No cheating. HEA. Epilogue.


ARC. ( )

I'm always hesitant in romance novels when it opens up to one of our MCs talking about how long it has been since they've had sex. This always seems to lead to the hero(ine) entering 5 min later, some heavy petting, some tension, then insta-love. Unfortunately it has become so formulaic in romances that it's no longer exciting or page-turning. Maybe I just need to step away from the romances for a while, but I wish someone could write a story with different bones to it. ( )

Law of Attraction by Alison Bliss
Tangled in Texas #3

Bobbie Jo is ripe for a bit of action and has a babysitter for her young son so heads off to the local watering hole with one thing in mind…and…sees just the kind of guy she thinks might be perfect. Well, her night did I not go as planned though she did get a scorching hot kiss to think about when she got home that evening. Little does she know that the man coming to stay with her, as a favor to a friend, is the man who gave her that kiss that was oh so memorable.

Seth Landry is hot with a capital H. He has a secret or two he is guarding closely and is adept with his hands not only helping to fix up Bobbie’s abode for B&B worthiness but in a few other ways, too. His interactions with four year old Austin, Bobbie’s son, are precious and perfect and warmed the cockles of my heart…just as they warmed Bobbie’s.

I smiled and cared and wanted to slap the biological father of Austin around a bit and wished a couple of times that Bobbie had been a bit less impetuous and thought before acting but then…she is who she is.

I enjoyed the story and wondered a bit about a few scenes that might have been fleshed out a bit more and would perhaps have liked a bit more after the last page but all in all it was a good read and as my first by this author made me interested in reading another book of hers when I can.

Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review.
