Hot Axe: Axford Brothers, Book 2

Fun best friends to lovers book. Quite a bit of angst since one is straight but I was totally here for it. Loved the book and can't wait for Holden's story.

I enjoyed this book I'm not always a big fan of the friends and lover trope but I enjoyed robbie and ames chemistry banter the only thing that got annoying was ames not accepting robbie was in love with him him constantly pushing him away got annoying and repitive bur overall a good read I enjoyed

Ames the owner of Watchfire Restaurant and a volunteer firefighter, has been in love with Robbie his best friend for sixteen years. Robbie is engaged to Lissa and soon to be married, but plans change. Robbie is the fire chief in Winsome, and feels responsible for his crew. When a major fire happens two of his crew are injured. Robbie saves Ames who ran after Greene into the burning structure. Greene was saved by Hughes. This is a sweet love story, with drama and a few twists. It is the second book in the Axford Brothers series which has been fun to read.

Absolutely loved both books. It's git a good pace, sweet, funny, and emotionally deep when it needs to be. I honestly dont know how I am going to make it waiting till next year for the 3rd book. Excited to look at the authors other books.
