🌲 Ziggy's Voice (The Wilde Men #2) 🌲 Saxon James 🌲


 

Kennedy

I’ve always been the relationship guy.

I love big, hard and fast … but unfortunately for me, that’s the quickest way to make a new romance crash and burn.

Moving to Wilde’s End, our not-so-abandoned town, is exactly the fresh start I need. What’s better than a town in the middle of nowhere and long days of hard work to swear off relationships? At least that’s what I think, until I meet Ziggy.

He’s the town electrician who has a weird habit of making sparks fly whenever I’m around him. He’s cute, snarky, and his piercings are hot as hell.

Too bad I don’t trust myself not to make the same mistakes I always do.



Ziggy

I’ve always been the weird loner. The strange kid who doesn’t talk.

So when Kennedy shows up in my life, with his big energy and sunny personality, I don’t know how to take him. I’m used to being the invisible shadow that goes unnoticed in the Wilde.

Kennedy makes me feel seen.

He doesn’t expect me to talk when the voices in my head get too loud, he doesn’t expect me to be funny or witty or anything that I’m not. He’s happy just to be around me, and that’s not something I’ve experienced before.

He’s sworn off dating. And I’ve never so much as been kissed.

But with the sunshine he brings to my life, it’s impossible to feel like a shadow anymore. I’m determined to win him over, no matter what it takes.

  

 Copy received from the author for an honest review

Oh my sweet darlings, how much I adore you and your story.

Mr Doesn't Talk meets Mr Talks Too Much, and they are just what each other needs. 

Kennedy falls in love at the drop of a hat, Ziggy has never been kissed.

And I loved watching them fall for each other, against what they think should be happening, against what all their family thinks.  Sigh.

Kennedy his insecurities about relationships broke my heart at times.  He tries so hard to not hurt Ziggy, but maybe he will any way?

And Ziggy has never known what love is, and is yearning for it.

I liked the rest of the characters, though I did get frustrated at Kennedy's brothers a lot of the time. Come on guys, he is pouring his heart out to you and I was not always liking the energy coming back to him.

But all's well that ends well in the End. I was left smiling as everything came together, and ooh I am excited to see where the series goes next, with what we are given here.

Looking forward to more.

But mostly, we are all here supporting you Saxon with what is going on at the moment.

ARC received from author for an honest review. 
 
I have not read any of the Pittsburgh Titan books since book 6 - say whaaat!  But what a way to dive back in.
 
I loved that it is not just hockey bro dudes settling down. 
 
Out of loss and sadness, Atlas and Maddie comes love and a lightness that neither of them had felt for a long time.
 
It was such a sad start to the story, and the reader feels Atlas and Maddie's grief right along with them.  Add in a beautiful little girl, how can a heart not heal.
 
Yes, there is a bit of hockey stuff thrown in, but it is more about the family we lose, but more importantly of found family.  I loved seeing the Titans and their people from the earlier books (even though there are lots I haven't met yet!)
 
I need to go back and read those ones that I have missed, as I want to know all of them.

 HART STREET LANE

• Return To Dublin Street #3
• On Dublin Street 2nd Generation


★★★
4.9 Stars

A steamy fake engagement from New York Times Bestselling Author Samantha Young.

Faking it has never been so hard…

Breaking up with my fiancΓ© wasn’t on my agenda this summer, neither was hiding the truth from everyone, including my colleagues at Pennington’s department store. But that tiny evasion gets me into trouble when I’m forced to play bride-to-be for our new marketing campaign. If my boss finds out I’ve lied to her, it won’t just be my reputation on the line; it’ll be my job.

Enter my new bestie, Baird McMillan. Professional goalkeeper, professional heartbreaker, and now my professional fake fiancΓ©. Baird’s public escapades have gotten him on the wrong side of his football club’s new owner, and he needs to prove he’s settling down. A fake engagement is a win-win for us both.

There’s just one problem. It turns out there’s nothing fake about the explosive connection Baird and I share.

I may not have been looking for love, but every moment with Baird tempts me to reach for it. Yet just as I start to believe a future together could be a real possibility, our pasts come surging back with a vengeance. And with it, those who will do anything to destroy our chance at forever…





Maia + Baird

The third book in the Dublin Street Second Generation series!

Baird is a football (soccer) goalkeeper and a super flirt.
But he's been in love with his buddy's girl's cousin ever since he met her.
Maia. She's four years older than Baird's 26 years. She works her dream job as a fashion something in a department store.
But now that she dumped her fiancΓ© that job is in danger, because she was supposed to be the face of the new social media wedding campaign - with her ex.
Enter Baird. Pretending to be in love is the perfect way to get Maia to fall in love with him too. Right?



Adorable.
We've been waiting for Baird's story for decades! And now he's here. And he's just as amazing as we knew he would be. He's such a flirty fun guy! But he has to grow up now. His team's new boss is not happy with him, so playing Maia's fiancΓ© is not only helping her but him too. In more than one way obviously. He's hoping that she'll fall in love with him too. She's always seen him as this super flirty serial dater. But he'll prove her wrong.
So adorable! So many funny and sweet and cute moments. But we also get some sad and heartbreaking moments. Both (especially Maia) didn't have the easiest time growing up and the past and other bad people might come calling ...

I loved reading this so much.
Amazing cast of people - loved all the friends and family! (Hated that one person at work!)
Can't wait for whatever's coming next!

HART STREET LANE was another great book in this new On Dublin Street Second Generation Series!
Sweet and flirty and funny and adorable and a bit heartbreaking and just beautiful!
Run to your nearest bookdealer for your own Baird - this one is soo MINE!
