Publisher Description
NHL Boston Hawks captain Austin Merrick used to be my boy-next-door. Now, he’s the man on my mind.
Our paths haven’t crossed in over a decade when I find myself back in Boston, desperate to save face in front of my ex-fiancé. With a devilish smirk and wicked blue eyes, Austin steps back into my life to be my plus one for a summer filled with weddings and events.
Should be fun and effortless, right?
Then why the need for rules?
And why do I crave his touch at the small of my back and wish for his kiss on a moonlit beach?
Suddenly, things begin to feel complicated, messy, and real. When I look at my first friend, I don’t see the boy-next-door, but the man I want to spend forever with.
If Austin learns the depth of my feelings, will he give us a real chance? Or are some rules better left unbroken?
Customer Reviews
Ticked all my boxes
I love my visits to Boston and I love catching up with the Boston Hawkes. The Rule Maker is book 4 in the series and this is the captain Austin’s story, I’ve been excited for his story from the moment I meet him at the start of this series and let me just say, this book was everything I expected and more.
Austin and Chloe have been best friends since childhood, growing up next door to each other but moving to different cities as their careers took off. Chloe is back in Boston for a friends wedding, she needs to save face because her cheating ex fiancé will also be attending, what better than having the captain of the local hockey team on your arm and that’s when this story gets real interesting….
I was captivated from the first page to the last line, I read this book in one sitting because I needed to know if the couple I had fallen hook, line and sinker for got the HEA they both deserved. The Rule Maker ticked all my boxes, I swooned, I laughed and at times I held my breath but what took this story to another level was the friendships and camaraderie the Boston Hawkes have, this is the perfect addition to this wonderful series. Looking forward to the next instalment of the Boston Hawkes
Great addition
I loved this latest addition to the Boston Hawks Hockey series. The Rule Maker is captain Austin Merrick and Chloe’s friends to lovers story. This was an entertaining book that had me riveted from the first to the last chapter.
I loved how real their friendship was and it was fun to watch as friendship turned to love. The chemistry between them is impossible to ignore, even though they know it will complicate their relationship. I loved the development of their relationship as it grew and I really liked how Austin was prepared to stand up and help Chloe out.
I fell hard and fast for Austin, he is totally swoon worthy and has a heart of gold. My heart broke for Chloe and all she has been through with her cheating ex fiancee, but she is stronger than she knows.
The Rule Maker is a heart warming and I was really cheering for Austin and Chloe to get the happily ever after that they both deserved.
