Book excerpt: A Brother's Best Friend Forbidden Romance Ivy I never imagined that the scruffy kid who was my brother's best friend would grow up to be this muscular Adonis. If I'm honest with myself, I’ve always had a crush on Leo. Back then, I hid it behind my argumentative, bossy exterior, being a true little pest to both him and my brother, Bear. Now, Leo is all I can think about, and I’m not sure he sees me as anything more than Bear’s little sister. Leo When Ivy arrived in Cady Springs, I hadn't seen her in seven years. Being in the military, I missed a lot of people as they grew up and changed. I never planned on settling down. But being around Ivy -- this new version of her -- has me rethinking the whole marriage thing. She's Bear's little sister, though, and my history with women is sort of love them and leave them. Bear will be furious with me thinking about his sister the way I do. Ivy has quickly grown into my head space while I have carnal thoughts of having her wrapped around my body. Returning to her hometown of Cady Springs, Colorado, Ivy Collins is ready to fulfill her role as Maid of Honor for Angela and her brother Bear's wedding. Known for her fiery spirit and quick wit, Ivy has always maintained a playful, adversarial relationship with Bear's best friend, Leo. As children, their teasing and banter were legendary, but now, years later, the stakes are higher. Leo has transformed from the boy who used to pull her pigtails into a ruggedly handsome former Navy SEAL. As Best Man, he's tasked with ensuring the wedding goes off without a hitch, but he never anticipated Ivy's return would ignite such a powerful attraction. Determined to keep things platonic, both Ivy and Leo struggle to navigate the forbidden allure that now simmers between them. With every glance, every accidental touch, their chemistry intensifies, making it harder to ignore the undeniable sparks. As they work together to support Bear and Angela on their big day, Ivy and Leo begin to see each other in a new light, recognizing the depth of their connection beyond the playful jabs and childhood antics. Yet, the shadow of their past and the weight of familial bonds loom large. Bear's protective instincts toward his sister and his deep friendship with Leo create a seemingly insurmountable barrier. Ivy and Leo must decide if they're willing to risk it all for a chance at true love, or if they’ll let the constraints of their relationship keep them apart. Opal Nicks delivers a steamy, yet heartwarming, tale of rediscovered love and the irresistible pull of destiny. Welcome to Cady Springs, Colorado where the mountains are the focal point of beauty and mystery. Nestled in the mountains, foothills and valley, you’ll encounter a breed of man previously thought extinct. Cady Springs is filled with men who like their women resilient but soft and voluptuous. These men play for keeps. Once they grab hold, they don’t let go. It’s forever or nothing in the small mountain community of Cady Springs where love, luck and fortune converge and take over.
