Ruined: A Single Dad Small Town Romance (Willow Creek Book 3) Kindle Edition

by A.K. MacBride (Author), Lissanne Jones (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 363 ratings
My name is Eli Jackson.
Sheriff of Willow Creek and father to the most important girl in my life.

Rumor has it, I'm scorned, bitter, and distrusting.

People can believe what they want.
I don't have to impress anyone.

Then Zoe Carlisle blows into my town and turns my world upside down.
One look into her troubled eyes and I'm done for.

The more time I spend with her, the more urgent this burning need to protect her becomes.

But she has a secret and once it's out, I have to decide if the price for love is one I'm willing to pay.

    Eli has closed off his heart and given up on women after his wife's betrayal but all of that changed the day he laid eyes on Zoe. She was a breath of fresh air that began to add color to his dull life. Zoe is being stalked and her life is in ruin. Every time she tries to put herself together, he would come in and pull her life apart. The last time he came to her home was the final straw. Eli knew that something was wrong and when her problems finally come out into the open, will Eli be able to fight for her and to keep them together?

    Eli has had a broken heart for over seven years. When Zoe comes to her friends wedding she sees Eli and they kiss. It’s one they won’t forget. But six months later Zoe is back in Willow Creek because of something that has happened. Both Zoe and Eli have walls up and they find each other and slowly break them down.

    I love this Willow Creek series.

    Has been a lovely series and I was looking forward to Eli's story. The book started out really good, really exciting and then it feel flat for me as it seemed to be drawn out and longer than necessary.

    Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2019

    AK MacBride exceeded all expectations for this one and my expectations were pretty high to begin with.
    Every one of her books comes out better than the one before so it really shouldn't have been a surprise.
    I'm not going to even try to put an eloquent review together because I just don't have the words, but I will say that as always, the prose is exceptional and the themes handled with her usual grace.
    Also, be prepared for a ton of sensual wrapped up in sweet. You won't find this sexy story lacking!

    This was an entertaining read that had me continually hesitating to put the book down in order to do RL things. I wanted to keep reading to find out what would happen to Zoe next from her previous life in TC. Or would Eli's heart finally open in order to trust and even love after being hurt so bad in the past.

    And..the awesome thing at the end is that the next book in the series is about Adam. We get a few hints during this book on what might be coming. I can't wait.

    A steamy unexpected book read. Eli is portrayed in the prior books a broody single dad, but the protector surprises us in book three. Steamy and fun, emotional and delicate will having reading this book without any regrets.

    Happy 📕 Reading!
