One blizzard plus two ex-lovers equals one passionate reunion in this Billionaires and Babies novel!
For years, billionaire producer Max Ford believed Raine Monroe had betrayed him. Now that he's back in his hometown, he wants answers. But his ex plans to keep her mouth shut and her heart far away from temptation until a snowstorm strands them with her baby in her cozy farmhouse. Soon Raine is falling faster than the snow outside.
But she has to put a stop to it before a fling with Hollywood's hottest bachelor jeopardizes her chances of officially adopting her daughter before saying goodbye again becomes impossible before dark secrets from their past finally come to light.
This is a really heart wrenching reunion story. When Max and Raine were young and in love with big dreams that included them being together people conspired to keep them apart. It worked. Now years later Max is back in town to take care of his sick mother. Only the first thing he finds is Raine with a baby in the ditch. He rescues her only to find out she's on her way to visit his mother. Since neither one of their parents approved of them as a couple when they were younger he's surprised by this. Max and Raine start finding out there are secrets and lies in their past and misunderstandings and when a sudden snowstorm strands them together it gives them the opportunity to figure them all out. I loved Max he's not your typical hollywood actor type. Down to earth and normal as any regular guy and giving. Raine is a sweet tough girl whose spent the years since Max taking care of herself and building a wall around her heart. Then add in the cute baby moments and the story packs a punch. As they start figuring out what went wrong all those years ago Max really stands up for Raine and she starts to trust him slowly. What i like about the this story is they have to fight to figure out how to make it work between the two of them. It's not a easy cut a dry we're together again and everything is great. Jules Bennett writes a wonderful story about long lost but lasting love. Even years later you can find your way back.

A hotel bar. A sexy stranger. A night of passion. There’s a part of Amber Mazzara that wants those things, wants to have a moment — just one — where life isn’t a complicated tangle of house and husband and kids and careers. Then, after a long, exhausting “vacation” with her family, her husband surprises her with a gift: a few days on the beach . . . alone.
Only she won’t be alone long, because a handsome man just bought her a drink. He’s cool, he’s confident, and he wants to take Amber to bed and keep her there for days. Lucky for them both, he’s her husband. He’s only got a few days in Jamaica to make her wildest desires come true, but if he can pull it off, there’s reason to believe that this fantasy can last a lifetime.
Ruthie Knox takes us back to Camelot one more time to put us in touch with the couple from the first book in the series Amber and Tony. This short book takes place 10 years and 3 kids after they met in How to Misbehave . Like many marriages the Mazzara's are busy trying to make ends meet, take care of their kids and eek by with some kind of life. After a family wedding in Jamaica Amber and Tony are trying to get their brood on the airplane when Tony tells Amber to stay. Her aunt has a few days paid for a room at the resort and she should relax and he'll take care of the kids etc. She is left standing there before she can say anything. Amber feels lost. She has doubts about her husband love and her place in the world now that her baby has started school she has time to think about these things. When Tony leaves her in Jamaica she should be happy to be able to relax and be on her own for a while but what she really wants in for Tony to be there with her and reconnect. Finally with the help of his mother in law he comes back to find her and get back to being a couple. Being married for over 20 years i can totally relate to this story. It's not easy being married. Many can't see past the wedding that marriage is give and take and being there for each other. It's kid of fun to go back and see how couple turn out from past books. This was an emotional journey that any married couple can relate too. I was so happy to see Amber and Tony find their way back to love and life. 4 out of 5 stars for Making it Last by Ruthie Knox.
