Sean is a man with needs—needs that a lot of women were ready and willing to fulfill. Yet, the only woman that he wants to fulfill them dumped him for another man. A man who’s a member of his MC and is someone he has to see every single day and twice on Sundays.

He’s bitter and angry. He’s definitely not in the right frame of mind when it comes to dealing with women. Which is unfortunate for his new partner, Naomi, a fresh-out-of-school and totally green paramedic. 

---

Naomi’s got enough problems on her plate. A brother who’s self-destructive and doesn’t care who he takes down with him. A man who she’s in love with but who doesn’t love her. A job that she hates because it is a constant reminder of what she can’t have.

Desperate to distance herself from her problems, she runs, taking the first job in her field that she finds willing to take on someone with so little experience.

The last thing she needs is a perpetually pissed off partner, especially when he sets her blood on fire.

But life doesn’t ask how much you can handle when it dishes out challenges. It just keeps piling them on until you’ve bested them or you’ve buckled under them.

---

Sean really doesn’t want to like his new partner, Naomi. He just wants to be left alone to live his life however he damn well pleases and without complications.

Naomi doesn’t care what he wants, she can’t be anything but herself. It isn’t long before she’s breaking down his walls and making him feel again. She’s trying to pull him closer and he’s pushing her away.

It’s not long before Sean sees the error of his ways.

It’s too bad, though, that by the time he realizes she’s the one, Naomi’s already gone.

I know I say this all the time, but you really DO need to read the previous books, from like all her series. LOL there are a lot of returning characters in this book, and it was so good to see them, so to speak.

We first met Sean in Downy & Memphis' book, and then we could see a glimpse of his women issues, well his luck, sadly, hasn't changed. The last book already let us know of an issue between him and Ellen, mainly someone else coming into Ellen's life. Now, Sean is heartbroken and a little betrayed, but like Dory he just keeps swimming, until one day his new partner, Naomi, makes him take notice. 

Naomi we have met before in Aspen and Drew's book, although she has been in other books, just their story we got to see more of her. Naomi has what has to be the worst luck going, so she decides its time for a fresh start, and moves. Her new partner is Sean and she will do her best to stay out of his radar; in fact she does her best to just do her job and stay out of everyone's way. Sean finally decides to make a move on her, but as is the way with things, he proceeds to push her to the breaking point and she decides she will give him his space and leave. Now Sean has to figure out how to get her back and hope its not too late.

This movie that I get in my head every time I read a LLV book, just keeps getting better and better. She makes me cry, laugh, pissed and flushed and this can all be in the same freaking chapter! This was once again an amazing read and I loved everything about it. I am wondering about a timeline issue, but I'll figure that out when I reread. 5 stars all the way.

About The Clover Chapel:

She took a dare and fell in love. Truth would have been the smarter choice.   After years of living under her father’s thumb, Emmeline is ready to break free. She’s abandoned her life as a New York socialite to follow her dream of becoming a kindergarten teacher in a small, wholesome town. Seeing the man that nearly broke her was absolutely not what she had hoped to find in Prescott, Montana.   Nick hasn’t seen his Emmy in nine years, but that doesn’t mean he’s forgotten a thing about the woman he loves. After just one blissful night as man and wife, he gave her up, sacrificing his own happiness to keep her safe—far away from him. But the moment she walks back into his lonely life is the moment he decides never to let her go again. He won’t waste his second chance. All he has to do is win back Emmeline’s heart, keep her safe from the shadows in his past and prove to her that taking a wager on him is a sure bet.

Exclusive Excerpt:

“What are you doing here?” “Picking you up for dinner,” he said. “It’s only three thirty. I prefer to put at least six hours between meals and I ate lunch at noon.” “I’m not here to take you now, Emmy. But I’m giving you a heads-up that I’ll be back at five thirty. Don’t drive home.” “You could have texted me all of this,” I said. “Yeah. But then I wouldn’t have been able to do this.” He crossed the space between us in a millisecond and captured my mouth, wrapping his arms around my waist. His lips pressed roughly against mine as his tongue swept my lower lip. Over and over he stroked until my mouth fell open. When his tongue found mine, I melted. Heat erupted throughout my body and my knees gave out. When I started to sink to the floor, he stopped kissing me but tightened his grip on my waist. “I’ve got you.” A crooked grin formed on his lips. I took a moment to steady my legs and stand tall before stepping back a foot. The skin around my mouth was surely pink from the contact with his beard. But at least it would match my flushed cheeks. “Five thirty,” he said and walked out the door. Shit. Thinking clearly was not an option after a Nick kiss but I really needed to pull myself together. I’d spent last night tossing and turning, replaying all the things Nick had told me these last few months. You’ve always had my heart, Emmy. We’re it for each other. I thought about you every day for nine years. And I thought about what my mother had said. That my heart had already forgiven him and I just needed to get my head straight with that concept. Sinking into my chair, I let my head fall into my hands. “What am I going to do?” I tried to picture what our life could be like. Me happy. Nick and I living a normal life. But every time that image popped in my head, it was immediately followed by the vision of me waking up alone to a note that said he was sorry. Time was ticking away and I needed to make some decisions. My attorney had emailed me while I was in Italy to say he’d have my divorce papers drafted by the end of the month. Nick was not going to stop inserting himself into my life unless I made it clear we were over. Were we over? For nine years, I’d thought we were. But so much was different now. He was everything that I remembered. Kind. Affectionate. Intelligent. And stubborn. Every time I tried to push him away, he just pushed back harder. But honestly, I really hadn’t put up much of a fight against his advances. “Ten seconds ago, you let him stick his tongue down your throat with no fight at all, Emmeline,” I mumbled into my hands.
