SWEAT (The Bishops of New York Book 1) Kindle Edition

SWEAT, a sexy new standalone from New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author, Deborah Bladon.

Exercise is supposed to strengthen the body and clear the mind, right?
Wrong.
When I’m looking across the gym at a half-naked Smith Booth, it’s hard to focus on anything but his gorgeous face, piercing brown eyes and the way the sweat travels down his abs to his….
I can’t.
If I didn’t already know Smith, I’d think he’s the hottest man on the planet, but we have a past.
It’s not checkered. We didn’t have a sordid affair that ruined anyone’s life.
He stole the only thing that ever mattered to me.
Forgiving him is not an option. Apparently, avoiding him at my favorite gym isn’t either.
I can hold a grudge forever, can’t I?
I just wish my pulse didn’t race every single time he looks my way.

*Author’s Note: Although a few characters from my past books make appearances in SWEAT, it’s not necessary to read any of my other books to enjoy SWEAT.

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

The Bishop family and their friends find love in this series of standalone novels. You'll only find devoted men and strong, independent women here. Each book in the Bishops of New York series is a standalone novel. These stories can be read in any order.

About the Author

New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Deborah Bladon, has never read a romance hero she didn't like. Her love for romance novels began when she was old enough to board the bus, library card in hand to check out the newest Harlequin paperbacks. She's a Canadian by heart, and by passport, but you can often spot her in New York City sipping a latte and looking for inspiration for her next story. Manhattan is definitely her second home.

She cherishes her family and believes that each day is a gift for writing, for reading, and for loving.

Wow, Brynn has held onto an anger for her brothers best friend, Smith for years. They meet again after years, he is definitely interested in talking with her, to apologize, so they can become friends once again. Only to realize, she has been angry about something that doesn't exist, and now they have to come to terms with can they become friends, can she get past her feelings? Love their story💞.

This is another excellent romance story. Love these two. These stories are just too short! I want more of their lives, cause you get such a warm feeling. There should be more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smith Booth!
Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2017

I loved reading this story. While it provided dual POVs, it felt it was Smith's character that called to me the most. I did give the book 5 stars, but I will say the 'I hate you' tone of the book was very lengthy and the coupling was a little short. However, I still love this author's work and enjoyed reading every word. Can't wait for the next on!

This story about Smith and Brynn had me from the beginning. It really delivers whether you are looking for a love story or a twist that you just didn't see coming. Deborah knocked it out of the park, again. She writes the best stories, with hot sex, characters that you want to follow, and the HEA that you're looking for. Her books are all a must read for me....

Short, but sweet love story. Just enough heat to keep it interesting. Smith and Brynne are great Characters, and I love that Adley was included as well. I enjoy how Deborah incorporates elements of other stories in her books.
I also feel that Brynne's brother Julian and Maya will become their own story soon.

4.0 out of 5 stars true to author's writing style
Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2020
Verified Purchase
It's been a while since I have visited the world created by Ms. Bladon's books. SWEAT is an Enemies to Lovers trope with a bit of an older brother's friend thrown in for good measure. Brynn has hated Smith for a long time, but Smith has had a fascination with Brynn for longer. The fine line between love and hate gets blurred pretty quick in this story.
Bladon's writing style is on true to form in this story. Enjoyable, easy to follow, and a pleasant read.

I have waited all summer for this book and boy was it worth the wait!! I love the way Deborah throws curve balls in her writing. You never see it coming!! This is more than a five star. I have read every book she has written and this is by far one of my favorites. Can't wait to read her next book!!!

Another hot and sweet hero that just loves his woman. This couple was cute and fun together. Plus the love that had been pushed away for all those years made it that much better

Perfect book. Loved everything about it and was sad when it ended. Story starts right away, no side stories that take too much time away from the main one. Hot, sexy, never boring.

First book by this author and I will be looking for more. Cannot wait to read Adley's and Julian's book.
The chemistry between Smith and Bryn was good and the banter. I really enjoyed this book and was up till 2.30am as I couldn't put it down.
If you've not read this yet then I would one click it today. Such a good read and well worth five stars.

Another enjoyable read from one of my favourite authors. Smith and Brynne are relatable, lovable characters and once again the Bishop family and the familiar places in New York make the novel feel like you are reading about family, friends and a familiar neighbourhood. Keep them coming please Deborah
