Title: Even the Score
Author: Beth Ehemann
Release Date: September 6, 2016
Format: eARC (Netgalley)
Single dad Andy Shaw loves his job as a sports agent, with one exception: it doesn’t leave him much time for his kids. No parent likes being sidelined, so Andy decides to hire someone to share the workload. But when one of the hottest agents in the industry applies, Andy knows that this deal is definitely trouble.
Danicka Douglas works her butt off, but being an attractive woman in a testosterone-heavy industry isn’t exactly a cakewalk. She guards her professional reputation fiercely, which means no crushing on her gorgeous boss. But the more they ignore that sexy little spark, the more it sizzles…
Just when it looks like romance might be in the game plan, Dani is threatened by a stalker with dark intentions. To keep her safe, Andy must cross the line between professional and very personal…because this time, he’s playing for keeps.
**4.5 Stars**
Man, oh man, Beth nailed it with this one! After meeting Andy and his horrendous ex-wife Blaire, I was dying for his story. He deserves happiness and his two adorable children deserve someone who will love them and be a mother type figure to them. Needless to say, it was everything I wanted his story to be and more. Beth did not disappoint on delivering his story and having it be everything I needed it to me.
Andy, then agent and friend of Brody and Viper's that we first meet in the Cranberry Inn series, is probably my next favorite character within this group of friends. After kicking his ex-wife to the curb, he has been the rocking the single dad and business owner thing, but he finds himself in the position of working more than he should and spending less time with his kids. When Brody dreams up a brilliant idea to hire a partner, Andy can't wait to start sharing some of the responsibility, what he didn't know was that Danika was more than he knew he needed.
After making a name for herself in the sports agency field, Danika (aka Dani) jumped at the chance when she knew Andy's company was looking for a new partner. Finding herself in an awkward position with her old agency, Dani jumped at the chance to join the agency, what she didn't know was that she was jumping in with more than just business with her new boss.
I loved Andy's story. The tough sports agent was trying to do it all on his own and didn't realize that having a business and a happily ever after were just what he needed. Andy and Danika's story was real. You feel their love, pain and all the other emotions and you experience their joys and triumphs as well. You see more of our favorite Cranberry Inn and Viper's Heart characters but, you get a whole lotta Andy love. I can't wait for others to read his story and fall in love.
