My review:
Listen there is a similarity with Marni’s books, yet each character is still unique. Fast burn and full of steamage is guaranteed. They typically meet in a bar, too. You can count on a H that has gotten around town and then some, but has finally found someone to change his ways, is cocky and knows how to hit it and never wanna quit it. The h’s are always strong and independent.
Here we have Cooper (29) & Rowan (29) who find themselves snowed in with all flights delayed for days, and only one bed available…whatever will they do?
Just when I think I have enough book boyfriends another is added to the list. This guy is so sweet and attentive, and protective. And when he got some unexpected news his response was absolutely perfect. Ford Dalton from The Single Dad is still my favorite, but Cooper comes in at a close second.
Rowan knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to speak up, even when she gets the cold shoulder.
Overall, lovedy love loved. The epilogue just might bring a tear to your eye.
Series notes
This series follows brothers in business together, so you might as well read the 1st one 1st so that you know what’s up with the family. Then you’ll be ready for Brady’s story coming out in June 2024.
This is also a spin-off of The Daltons series and some of those characters are involved here. I suppose it’s not absolutely necessary to read those first, but they’re quite enjoyable, so why not?
Narration notes:
Both narrators did great. Their opposite voices weren’t bad.

Book blurb:
A scorching enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, billionaire romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …
One bed.
Two stranded strangers.
Three wildly passionate nights.
A thousand secrets between them.
After getting trapped in a blizzard, my private jet grounded, with no hotel room available within miles, I met a woman at the bar.
Rowan.
A knockout blessed with killer curves, gorgeous emerald eyes, and a mouth that should be illegal. She triggered all the primal and possessive emotions I’d never known I had.
Not the typical Cooper Spade that the world had come to know.
What followed was a fiery, unforgettable, wildly explosive weekend of sizzling touches, passionate nights, and intense chemistry.
The rebel had finally fallen …
But when the storm cleared, I returned to LA and learned that the woman I’d just spent seventy-two carnal hours with was the enemy, and I’d loved every minute of it.
