Publisher Description
A brand new, swoony small town firefighter series from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!
What could go wrong when my brother’s best friend becomes my roommate?
I’m about to find out.
When I met Hudson Fox, I drove over his crutches. Way to go, girl. My hormones think this hotshot firefighter is all that and then some.
My hormones have a terrible track record. They are cheering for Hudson, but my brain knows better. I’m a smart woman with plans and none of them involve romance.
Until I move into my new place and Hudson is my roommate. Complete with Butter, his cat.
Hudson isn’t just easy on the eyes, he’s everything I didn’t know I wanted, including a little grumpy with a protective streak bigger than Alaska. We both have our reasons for avoiding romance, but when he proposes a with benefits arrangement, I can’t even think over the sound of my hormones screaming for joy.
When my messy past catches up to me and I discover Hudson is my brother’s best friend, well, things get even messier. Hudson is keeping his own secrets. I tell myself it doesn’t matter. Until my heart wants more.
Hudson & Stella’s story is perfect for readers who love: protective firefighters, slow burn, roommates, brother’s best friend, messy secrets, chemistry on the rampage, small town shenanigans, emotional romance with a dash of angst, oodles of steam and swoon, and a cinnamon roll hero who will protect the woman he loves with everything he has.
*A full-length, standalone romance.
Customer Reviews
See AllComplicated
To say Hudson and Stella's story is complicated is an understatement. The fun comes in watching the two overcome their complications. Beloved characters from other series add their support and liven/enrich the story.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
She’s a hot mess
She’s a literal hot mess…
Stella has a mad crush on Hudson Fox (best book name). He’s a firefighter who put out her fire when she’s literally on fire. Hello? Never smoke a turkey on a deck or near a house. Anyways, we have established that Stella is not that bright. But Hudson is a sweet, protective cinnamon roll, total Fox.
There’s burning all around…
Recommend.
Stella and Hudson
If you enjoy found family stories, I highly recommend Stella and Hudson’s story. Of course, this story is set in Alaska, so we know it’ll be good. J.H. Croix writes some of the best Alaskan romances, in my opinion. Stella was attracted to Hudson from the start and Hudson was attracted to Stella. When they learn they’ll be living in a shared house, Stella tells herself she’ll keep her attraction under control. She can’t let her emotions rule her life. Hudson got into some trouble when he was younger, so he doesn’t think Stella could be interested in him. I’m not going to leave any spoilers, but I will say if you love a great story, you won’t be disappointed with this book.
I received an advanced reader copof this book and this is my voluntary and honest review.
