AFTER CARE is the first book in the Silver Foxes series.  The books are each stand-alone, but I whined when I read the second one and now I finally got to read the first one in preparation for the release of book three.  I was NOT disappointed!

Edie and Tommy’s story starts as whirlwind connection in Hawaii.  The following months prove whether it was a vacation fling or the beginning of something real.

I loved reading about the band, Edie’s kids, and Tommy’s family history.  I loved Edie and Tommy – characters who prove that sex and love are not just for those under 30!  How sad life would be if that were true.  Together they are steamy!

I understand Edie’s insecurities.  After years of being told you are undesirable and always at fault for anything that goes wrong, it takes a lot to believe anything else.  Kudos to Tommy for constantly reminding her that she is beautiful, intelligent, and strong.

I loved that it was insta-hot and heavy.  I loved that they didn’t burn out.  Though they had they inevitable break-up (it is a romance book after all), they craved each other enough to come back together, talk it out, and prepare for their next chapter in life.

Soon I will have my hands on book three and I am looking forward to it!

Note:  While I was given this book as a gifted copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
