Publisher Description
Lines are crossed and promises broken when a forbidden kiss ignites an irresistible attraction in this sizzling brother’s best friend romance…
“Promise me you’ll always look out for Andie.”
By the time I was seventeen, I knew my best friend’s younger sister was the only girl I’d ever love.
We’re all grown up now, but my feelings for Andie haven’t changed. She’s the smartest woman I know and the only one who sees through the carefree act I hide behind. She deserves better than a screw-up like me—failed musician, part-time handyman, and full-time black sheep of my family.
I’ll do anything to protect her, so I keep my distance and my hands to myself.
When the tumble-down house she inherited needs repairs, I jump on my white horse and swoop in to help her with the renovations. Even though it means spending dangerous amounts of time together.
I’ve got it under control until the night a surprise kiss changes everything between us.
One scorching-hot taste of her is all it takes to shatter my defenses. Now that I know how much she wants me, I’m addicted to our secret glances and stolen touches.
Around our friends and family, we pretend we’re still just friends.
But when we’re alone? We can’t keep our hands off each other.
This game we’re playing is bound to blow up in our faces, just like everything else I touch. If I can’t prove I’m worthy of Andie’s love, I’m going to lose my two best friends in the world.
MY CONE AND ONLY is a swoony, feel-good friends to lovers romance featuring a STEM heroine who takes no crap, a surprisingly loyal bad-boy rocker who’s head over heels for the one woman he thinks he can’t have, lots of small-town shenanigans, and an epic grovel.
It stands alone with a guaranteed HEA and kicks off the six-book KING FAMILY series. Your heart will melt for this band of unruly siblings behind a Texas ice cream empire as they stumble on the rocky road to love while dealing with their big, messy family.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Nix (Elementary Romantic Calculus) launches her King Family series with a love story just as tempting, decadent, and sweet as the ice cream sold by the title family's nationwide brand. Charming, flirty Wyatt King wants nothing to do with his family's ice cream empire. Instead, he works as an occasional handyman around Crowder, Tex., setting his own hours and playing in a cover band. His handyman skills come in handy when his best friend's younger sister, biologist Andie Lockhart, is threatened by her homeowners' association, who hope to facilitate a shady real estate deal involving her run-down property. Luckily, Wyatt's on hand to fix things up until the HOA has nothing left to complain about. The arrangement has the pair spending a lot of time together, which is both a blessing and a curse for Wyatt, who's secretly loved Andie since he was a teenager but has always avoided her out of misplaced loyalty to her brother. But Andie and Wyatt's mutual mooning was noticed long ago by family and friends, putting their forbidden attraction on thin ice. Andie and Wyatt sizzle with chemistry, and Wyatt's many brothers and sisters, all of whom deserve love matches of their own, spell good things for the series to come. This is a treat.
