Q: Did you make any New Years Resolutions?

The Hunter
An Enemies-to-Lovers Romance
by L.J. Shen
__
My New Year’s resolution was to read more Dark Romance this year. And this has been in my Net Galley queue for a few weeks and it’s a backlog book so of course I was rude and pushed it back a little further. But wow. jeez Hunter did you make me blush?

I have been wanting to read books by this author since I started my booksta. I have been seeing these covers everywhere. They are so gorgeous. And the next two books are with Cillian and Sam who are terrifying but I am excited – claps hands giddily.

Hunter has just been woken up from a bender where a sex tape was leaked, we have all been there don’t judge.  And in order to not be disowned he has to be babysat by a friend of the family’s daughter. Just kidding it’s a mob bosses nerdy Olympic hopeful in archery, daughter. 

I don’t think I have ever read a more horny character than Hunter, he was very shocking lol but also hilarious. I am not sure if…  I can’t remember her name cause he either called her a Irish endearment or Carrot Top. Oh yes Sailor lol, oops, I am not sure if she knew what hit her when she moved in with him since he had the looks of an archangel. Why are archangels all hot? Must look into that.

Hunter was trying to prove himself not the black sheep and complete f- up of the family, he’s only 19 lol. Sailor was in competition with a much more glamorous, successful girl that had a beef with her for the Olympic spot. So she was very focused on training despite her health. I loved watching Hunter turn from a Playboy to a potential partner. Lol wow that epilogue I would die if my husband did that to me lol.

Thank you @netgalley and the author for the e-ARC for my honest and voluntary review.

Synopsis:

Hunter

I didn’t mean to star in a sex tape, okay?
It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds.
It just happened.
Now my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston’s nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan.
The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family’s oil company.
Little does she know, that’s not the only pipe I’ll be laying…

Sailor
I didn’t want this gig, okay?
But the deal was too sweet to walk away from.
I needed the public endorsement; Hunter needed a nanny.
Besides, what’s six months in the grand scheme of things?
It’s not like I’m in danger of falling in love with the appallingly gorgeous, charismatic gazillionaire who happens to be one of Boston’s most eligible bachelors.
No. I will remain immune to Hunter Fitzpatrick’s charm.
Even at the cost of losing everything I have.
Even at the cost of burning down his kingdom.
