HE WANTS TO LOSE CONTROL.
Between his parents’ messed up marriage and his narcissistic younger brother, Lincoln Moorehead has spent the majority of his life avoiding his family. After the death of his father, Lincoln finds himself in the middle of the drama. To top it all off, he’s been named CEO of Moorehead Media, much to his brother’s chagrin. But Lincoln’s bad attitude softens when he meets the no-nonsense, gorgeous woman who has been given the task of transforming him from the gruff, wilderness guy to a suave businessman
SHE’S TRYING TO HOLD IT TOGETHER.
Wren Sterling has been working double time to keep the indiscretions at Moorehead Media at bay, so when she’s presented with a new contract, with new responsibilities and additional incentives, she agrees. Working with the reclusive oldest son of a ridiculously entitled family is worth the hassle if it means she’s that much closer to pursuing her own dreams. What Wren doesn’t expect is to find herself attracted to him, or for it to be mutual. And she certainly doesn’t expect to fall for Lincoln. But when a shocking new Moorehead scandal comes to light, she’s forced to choose between her own family and the broody, cynical CEO.
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Handle with Care by Helena Hunting, the fifth book in the Shacking Up series was a fun romantic comedy with some blackmail thrown in to make things that much more interesting.
There were moments in Handle with Care that had me cracking up and others where I was so angry at the people in the story that if they were standing in front of me I would be tempted to throat punch them. Probably the most shocking thing I’m going to say in this review is that … Armstrong was not the main source of anger in this story, which is surprising because he has been the biggest jerk throughout this series.
In fact, and I might be in the minority here, but I’m starting to feel bad for Armstrong.
Anyway, because I don’t want this to be a review on just him, let’s talk about his brother the ‘black sheep’ of the family, Lincoln. First of all when we first meet Lincoln, he is broody and angry and I love me a broody hero! I don’t know what it is about them, but I find them irresistible!
Anyway, the transformation in Armstrong, brought out by Wren was amazing. And can I just stand up and applaud their communication? Is it weird that I find communication sexy? Because I did. When couples in romance novels actually overcome obstacles by talking them out versus you know hiding things it just makes me happy!
Handle with Care may not be my favorite in the Shacking Up world, but I still enjoyed and I was dying to know how everything would play out.
