Book 3 in author J.M. Stewart’s Seattle Bachelor series brings us another visit to the bachelor auction held every year.  It’s a fun second-chance at love story with a little twist to it.  The characters have some steamy chemistry!  I had a little trouble connecting with Maddie because she seemed a little too unforgiving for my liking, but I enjoyed their story.

Maddie doesn’t get out much, but she lets her friends talk her into a date at the bachelor’s auction, so she’s getting to know the guy with some online chat ahead of time.  Will it all blow up in Gray’s face when she finds out it’s him behind the subterfuge?
