Hot on the heels of her beloved Marriage to a Billionaire novels, New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Probst nails it with the first in an all-new sexy romance series featuring red-hot contractor siblings who give the Property Brothers a run for their money!
Ever the responsible eldest brother, Caleb Pierce started working for his father’s luxury contracting business at a young age, dreaming of one day sitting in the boss’s chair. But his father’s will throws a wrench in his plans by stipulating that Caleb share control of the family business with his two estranged brothers.
Things only get more complicated when demanding high-end home designer Morgan hires Caleb to build her a customized dream house that matches her specifications to a T—or she’ll use her powerful connections to poison the Pierce brothers’ reputation. Not one to ignore a challenge, Caleb vows to get the job done—if only he can stop getting distracted by his new client’s perfect…amenities.
But there’s more to icy Morgan than meets the eye. And Caleb’s not the only one who knows how to use a stud-finder. In fact, Morgan is pretty sure she’s found hers—and he looks quite enticing in a hard hat. As sparks fly between Morgan and Caleb despite his best intentions not to mix business and pleasure, will she finally warm up and help him lay the foundation for everlasting love?
Kassiah: Can you believe that this is my first Jennifer Probst book?
I ♥ the Property Brothers, and I love enemies to lovers stories, so of course I was excited to read Everywhere and Every Way. Note to Erin: Don’t look at the name of the series hahahaha
So basically, Caleb thinks he’s going to take over the family construction business but is thrown for a loop when he has to share the company with his two bothers, who he hasn’t had a relationship with since their mother died several years ago. Add to that the frustration of working for Morgan, building a high end residence. She’s very particular, but despite Caleb and Morgan’s differences, sparks fly between them. How long will they be able to keep it professional?
I have to admit that the first thing that drew me to this book was the cover. Which…I don’t know if they didn’t give the designer any notes about it or what, but this book does not match the cover. I think that really affected my rating because the story just didn’t live up to the cover for me. #ugh
Besides that, this story was okay. It was sweet and had some hot moments, but the pacing was slow and I didn’t really care about the characters. I liked them alright–Caleb was hot and both of them had past issues to rise above. I just didn’t love them. I also didn’t like that Caleb was called Cal. I know, I know. It’s not you, it’s me.
I am very interested in the other brothers, though, and will definitely be reading the other books in the series. Give this book a try, you’ll probably like it more than I did!
