Gut-Checked (Messy Hearts Book 3) Kindle Edition

by Charity Parkerson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 211 ratings

Cruz thought they were perfect. Ford couldn’t take the loneliness any longer. Everything will need to change to save them.

Ford has been Cruz’s best friend for a few years. Their friends-with-benefits arrangement has always worked for Cruz. Cruz isn’t seeing anyone else. He assumes Ford is the same. It’s a perfect relationship as far as Cruz is concerned. He’s too busy running his successful custom bike shop to look too closely at their relationship. Then it’s gone.

Since Ford met Cruz, he’s been in love. Despite Cruz’s inability to see anything beyond his success, Cruz is still pretty amazing. He’s gorgeous and fun. He’s that guy who never loses. The problem is, Cruz doesn’t love Ford. He could walk away anytime, and Ford wants someone who can’t live without him. Ford knows there’s no way he’ll ever have a normal life with Cruz, and as long as he stays close by, he’ll never stop saying yes when Cruz calls. That’s why he takes a job over three hundred miles away from the man who owns his heart. It’s the only way he’ll ever be free.

When Ford drops the news that’s he’s done and moving away, Cruz has to find a way to stop him. Everything he believed about their relationship has to change. While Cruz has no intention of letting Ford get away, this might be the one time he doesn’t get his way.

    I can never say enough about this author. I have read nearly every one of her books. I can't remember which one I like better there are so many beautiful storys. This one was outstanding. I little heartbreaking but the outcome was outstanding. After getting to know bother characters, I was relieved to know they were able to patch up their differences. Another beautiful book. Loved it.

    I have a problem, it is my problem but it also colors the way I see things. I hate to feel rushed in a story. I get that not all stories are door stoppers, but with these too I would have liked a little more. Ford and Cruz feel sort of incomplete but still worth reading. Onto the next one.

    This was a great read. I loved it. Cruz doesn't know what he's got until it's lost. Ford is tired of being Cruz last choice. They have lots of ups and downs. Phoenix is the best place to move in order to start over. But will Cruz fight for him? I am excited to read about the new character introduced named Bay.

    Another lovely story from the pen of Ms Parkerson. Hot MCs who were not so lucky in the love department, are crazy in love with each other, but haven’t said the L-word out loud to one another, which creates some confusion. But all’s well that end well, with a HEA! *swoon* I love that ❤️

    This was great this was the epitome of you don't know what you have until it's gone. Cruz hadn't realize that everything he thought Ford knew about them he didn't. Ford had waited years for Cruz to love him but because Ford never expressed home he had know clue he did until he was moving.Eventually they got their happy ending.I can't wait for Bay's story.

    Communication, in any relationship, is key to helping ensure fewer misunderstandings. How else can you get what you want from someone, if you never ask them? I enjoyed seeing Ford and Cruz get their HEA, finally. I liked this one, but it was so frustrating. Pretty much 75% of the book I just wanted to shake both MCs. It was good though.

    Cruz has been in love with His best friend for years, so when Ford says he's moving, Cruz realizes he's taken Ford for granted. Cruz has two months to show Ford how important he is.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Mixed feelings about this book.
    Reviewed in Australia on June 29, 2021
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    At the start felt sorry for Ford but he really was the one at fault, Cruz broke my heart, he loved Ford so much and Ford didn’t know anything about Cruz. Near the end, I don’t get why Ford just didn’t tell Cruz about his meeting, I did cry for Cruz near the end. Loved Cruz so much, Ford was okay and they made a great couple. Definitely mixed feeling, can’t say to much as it will give it away.
