When We Touch (The Heartbreak Brothers Book 5) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 3,080 ratings

There’s a fine line between love and hate… and they’re about to cross it.

Becca Hartson should be used to moody men by now. She grew up with four overprotective older brothers, after all. But nothing could prepare her for the hostility she encounters from her new boss – the annoyingly gorgeous Daniel Carter.

Sure, his first impression of her was bad. She was in the arms of his brother, crying into his shirt. But the whole situation was purely platonic and Daniel knows that.

It doesn’t stop him from scowling at her every time they work together. Or from sending her heart into a crazy spin.

But if she wants to keep this job, she’ll have to grin and bear it.

Coming back to work at his family’s distillery after six years away was a mistake. Daniel knows it from the moment his gaze clashes with Becca’s. With her tumbling waves and soft smile, he knows she’s trouble from the start.

Daniel doesn’t believe in love. And he definitely doesn’t believe in falling for his employees.

But when Becca looks at him with those sweet doe eyes, he keeps forgetting to hate her…

    I loved the push and pull between Becca and Daniel and their scorching hot chemistry! Daniel may have a rough exterior but he is a softy underneath. I liked that he didn't spend the while book fighting his attraction. I really liked seeing how effortless they are together. I am sad to see this series end but loved the bonus epilogue.

    Es un romance bastante predecible, es como leer una película de hallmark pero con un poco de spicy. A pesar de eso, es entretenido y rápido de leer. Es mi pareja favorita de la saga y me gustó mucho conocer este lado de Becca.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Type 1 Diabetes representation!!!!!
    Reviewed in Australia on June 5, 2024
    Now, the T1D in this story elevates it for me but may not for everyone else. So here is my review without the T1D connection….
    She is a sunshiny people-pleaser, he’s a grumpy McGrumperson and her boss. As their story unfolds he keeps major facets of his life away from her. This causes a very big drama and would be their 3rd Act Breakup.
    Their story is set in a distillery as they both work for a major whiskey brand. I found these aspects very unusual and interesting as well.
    Overall this was a romance with some unusual elements that really made it stand out. I find the author’s writing style comforting to read.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 3, 2025
    Becca Hartson finally gets her hea. Bittersweet as it’s the last of this series but bring on the next generation. Loved Becca right from the start, she was fiery, strong, witty and loved her family with her whole heart, the man that would capture her needed to be all of those things and hard enough to take on her very very protective brothers and Daniel was that and then some. He was the right mixture of grumpy, sweet, stubborn but also vulnerable due to his upbringing and battles. Together they were an amazing couple. Loved the drama, the family dynamics( specially hers) and the steam. Loved the bonus read too.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful, emotional and heartwarming story and perfect end to this wonderful series!
    Reviewed in Australia on June 13, 2021
    A delightful story which (as with every book I have read by this author) had me hooked from the very first page. I loved getting to know more of the sassy, strong-willed, beautiful and determined Becca, the younger sister of the four gorgeous Heartbreak Brothers.

    Enter the handsome, moody and often rude Daniel Carter who arrives to take over from his brother Nathan as CEO of the local whiskey distillery where Becca works. As they commence working together, there’s banter, flirting, and an undeniable chemistry and attraction between the two, which grumpy Daniel would choose to deny himself of because he believes he’s not the right man for his beautiful employee. But Becca can see there is a gentleness beneath the harsh exterior of this complicated man.

    When We Touch is an emotional, beautiful and heartwarming story. I loved watching the love bloom and grow between these two characters.

    I’m sad that this is where the series ends. However, we are treated to a bonus epilogue which was a wonderful way to end this series. Those overprotective Hartson brothers had me in stitches with their conversations in their group chats, and the glimpse we get into the lives of the whole Hartson family in the future brought happy tears to my eyes.

    Carrie Elks is a wonderful storyteller and this book, and this series, is a must read!
