Kenzie Quivers: The Loneliest Number

The Thirst Trap Book 3  (I have not read the first two in this series)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/234544426/reviews?reviewFilters=eyJyYXRpbmdNaW4iOjQsInJhdGluZ01heCI6NCwiYWZ0ZXIiOiJOVFFzTVRjMU1ETTFOekkzT1RRek1nIn0%3D

This is the first book I have read by this author but it won't be my last, when I say this book starts out coming in hot... woah!  😳  

Our lead female is into joining partners for one night only kind of fun, she doesn't give her real name choosing to go by the nick name Pixie, after an amazing night Cam (our male lead) gives her his phone number, she doesn't plan to use it but with his big personality, handsome face, and what he can do to her body... not to mention he has a sexy Scottish accent it's hard to not call him.

We next see our lead several weeks later finding out her name is Abby she is a hard worker and has a challenging family life so has made a family of her own with a good group of friends and her co-workers (she works as a bartender).  While on her way to work she often imagines what it would look like inside of this elegant run down building nearby and is torn when she finds out that there is someone who has come to town to actually fix it up she knows it would be amazing restored but it might also cause competition if they open a bar and are in the same neighborhood.  

Cam's grandmother has passed away and he learns that he is the new owner of a building in London.  No one in his family even knew the building existed the other weird thing is that a man he has heard of gave his grandmother the building it's a true mystery.  Cam heads down to London to fix up his new place and finds that he is the new owner of the very building that has enchanted Abby and ends up meeting up with her in the streets outside of his building when she comes up to see if she can help bring in supplies and maybe get a tour.

Cam wants to continue to get to know Abby (she finally told him her real name) better while Abby struggles with wanting to remain an independent unicorn (joining into other peoples relationships to spice it up for a night) and has never been one for just being with one person but Cam is different he is willing to explore with her and quickly finds himself just wanting to be with her in whatever way she will have him.

Cam is a good match for Abby allowing her time to open up on her terms and accepts her as she is never trying to change anything about her.  Will Abby let herself fall for Cam?  Throughout the book you can see maybe Abby is leaning more towards the idea that having someone special to come home to isn't always a bad thing.  Will they find out what the history is on this mysterious building that Cam now owns?   

Cute, quick read I enjoyed this book over all and plan to go back and read the rest of the series at some point --> some of the spicy scenes were spicier than I'm used to in multiple different partner pairings throughout the book.  Even with the amount of spice the author did a good job with moving the story forward and letting us get to know our lead couple better I was also interested to learn more about the mystery of how Cam's grandmother came into possession of The Juniper (Cam's new building in London).     

Have you read the rest of the series?  What did you think?
