He didn’t mean to fall for his former best friend’s ex-wife.
The moment I found out my ex-wife was cheating with my former best friend, I knew I’d hit rock bottom, and it was time for a change. With the freshly signed divorce papers in hand, I want nothing to do with my old life as I start my new one with my brothers and our new distillery and bar on the Wilder Retreat.
Only when I see my former best friend’s ex, Ava, in need of a job I can’t say no. Not when she has their eight-year-old daughter in tow and nowhere to go.
Now, I’m forced to work with the woman from my past I’d rather forget. We both want to move on, but every time we’re near each other, the fire hadn’t known we could have burns between us even brighter.
We should say no. The complications would break us. Yet we can’t walk away.
Even when it would be safer for all of us if we do.

Once friends. Twice enemies. Forever the passion.
After the epilogue in A WILDER WEDDING, I couldn't wait to get my hands on FOREVER FOR US. In that story, Wyatt is attacked in his bar after hours, and a pouch of money is stolen; this book picks up right from that point. This book can be read as a standalone, as with all of the books in this series, but they are interconnected since they revolve around a family. You can jump in at any point, but it will enhance your reading experience to have prior knowledge of each of the brothers and cousins as their stories occur.
Wyatt and Ava have a strange relationship; Wyatt was best friends with Ava's ex, and Ava was friends with Wyatt's ex when they were married. The four of them would vacation together and everything until one day when Wyatt came home to find his wife in bed with his best friend; needless to say, both marriages were heading to divorce court from that moment. The tragedy in it all was not the fact that their spouses cheated on them, but Ava's ex took EVERYTHING from her other than their daughter, and she is working at a job she hates to make ends meet. That is until Wyatt offers her a job as Assistant Manager at The Wilder Distillery and Bar.
Ava and Wyatt's story will pull at your heartstrings, especially the part where Ava's daughter Faith is affected. I loved this little girl and wanted to give her all the hugs she deserved. Suppose you have ever had the fortune to be a bonus parent. In that case, you know how precarious your relationship can be initially, but hold on because it can be the best thing ever if you show them that you aren't going anywhere and will love them wholeheartedly...yes, I speak from experience. I was so happy to see how invested Wyatt was with Faith even before he realized he wanted a relationship with Ava.
I listened to the audiobook, and Jason Clarke and Rose Dioro did a fantastic job bringing this story to life.
I recommend this book to readers who enjoy STEAMY Contemporary Romances, Romantic Suspense, Workplace Romances, Boss/Employee Romances, Single Mom Romances, or enemies-to-lovers Romances.
Happy Reading!!!
