Make Me: A Broke and Beautiful Novel | Tessa Bailey
11 posts | 9 read | 1 to read
Construction worker Russell Hart has been head-over-work boots for Abby Sullivan since the moment he laid eyes on her. But he knows a classy, uptown virgin like her could never be truly happy with a rough, blue-collar guy like him. If only she'd stop treating him like her personal heroa role he craves more than oxygenmaybe he could accept it. With the future of her family's hedge fund on her shoulders, Abby barely has time to sleep, let alone find love. And her best friend Russell acting like a sexy, overprotective hulk any time their Super Group goes out in public definitely isn't helping her single status. But after a near-tragedy lands Russell in her bed for the night, Abby's suddenly fantasizing about what he looks like shirtless. Chest hair and tattooswho knew? As Russell struggles to keep Abby at a safe distance, she begins to see through his tough-talking exteriorand acknowledge her own feelings. Now she's ready to turn the friend-zone into foreplayand make him lose control.

Definitely my favourite of the series! I found these MCs to be the most likeable, and their issues were concrete and sympathetic. Tons of chemistry, and although I HATE the term “friend zoned”, and all that it implies, these two do really work as friends-to-lovers. Also, it was a little heartbreaking in all the right ways. A pick, this time, for sure.

Great conclusion to this early Tessa Bailey trilogy. Escapist, spicy and fun!
