So, this drama with their dad maybe having an affair got messy in the first book and even messier in ANY TIME, ANY PLACE by Jennifer Probst. I hope as the secrets get revealed more and more than the story will settle. The revelations didn't completely off track this book, but they threatened to a couple of times. I'm about to start the third installment, so I'll report back, faithful Fresh Fictioners!
Raven was the downer for me in this one, just could never fully connect to her. Her grudge against Dalton got old quickly, even though it was kind of understandable.
However, I wished we could have seen the gorgeous bar Dalton created for Raven. The descriptions were drool- worthy - or maybe that's just the daughter-of-a-carpenter talking.
Anyway, ANY TIME, ANY PLACE is a weaker contributor to the series than I would have liked, but definitely not enough to put me off a series by Jennifer Probst.
HGTVβs Property Brothers meets The Marriage
Bargain in this second volume in the Billionaire
Builders series, an all-new heart-wrenching and sexy
contemporary romance from New York Times bestselling

her father behind.
Until Dalton Pierce visits one night and suddenly her past
challenges her future...
Leaving his life in California behind to run Pierce
Construction with his two older brothers, Dalton Pierce has
enjoyed returning home and studying his passion of
woodworking. But when he visits the local bar with his
brothers one evening, heβs immediately drawn to the
smart-mouthed, badass, sexy bartender who sets his body on
fire. Unfortunately, she doesnβt seem as intrigued by him,
and his multiple advances are met with rejection. When he

begins to work with her on a daily basis, and falls harder.
His plan of seduction slowly weaves a web around them both,
until they are caught up in the spell. But Dalton doesnβt
know the secret that can either destroy them both...or
finally mend two broken hearts.
