Vivienne comes from a multigenerational hockey family. A lot of them have been featured in a few of the authors earlier series.
She’s a positive, funny and nice heroine. She’s very likable and clever.
Xavier was an NHL player who walked away from it all to live on a boat with his dog, living a pretty solitary life. His reasons come to light later in the story and were a great part of the plot. He’s very grumpy with Vivienne when she moves into the boat docked next to his. She handles it well and plays little word and attitude games with him that are funny and give great enemies to lovers heat.
His dog plays a big part in their earlier interactions as she and Vivienne are fast besties.
I liked the story overall, I liked the banter between Vivienne’s huge family.
There’s a bit of a fun surprise about her that’s very cool.
I like the chemistry between the characters, it’s very hot and also quickly becomes emotional.
This story went from enemies to insta love pretty quickly. I wish their enemies banter and the buildup to bigger feelings had been teased a bit more. It’s my personal preference, I’m not usually a fan of insta love.
Overall, I still enjoyed the humor, the romance and the characters journey’s. It’s a sweet, steamy feel good romance.
The characters talk out loud to themselves a lot, it was an interesting style of storytelling. Xavier talks to his dog to be more clear, which is very cute and I’m guilty of doing the same.
The story involves mental health issues, I think it was a great addition to the character and story. It was handled delicately and with minimal details of a disturbing nature.
Fans of the author’s sports series will surely enjoy it and love seeing past characters as I did.

Emotional, Entertaining and so Enjoyable
This book was so emotionally rich. Xavier slowly and grudgingly begins to open up to his new dock neighbor, Vivienne. When he sees a bunch of people approaching her boat he’s shocked when he recognizes them as who’s who in hockey.
I loved how Vivienne ended up being the one person in her family reserved and respectful of other people’s business. She doesn’t pry and ask questions and Xavier responds to her accepting him for what he says.
These two characters are great together and I loved how accepting her father, Matthew, is of Xavier’s past and steps up to have his back during a meeting with Nico. I think this was the calmest and non-over the top he’s ever been.
Can’t wait for more books from Natasha!

Made For You is so much more than a sports romance. It touches on a heavy subject, and I think Madison handled it perfectly. She showed the raw, heartbreaking emotions of the topic while also keeping the devastating topic from overpowering the story. I truly think that’s one of my favorite things about her writing; she tackles many heavy topics with potent honesty but still keeps the stories from being overly angsty. No matter what topic the characters may face, it’s always the overflowing, unconditional love and support of the people around them that takes center stage, alongside the romance.
Vivienne is as sweet as she is sassy, and unlike the other members of her large family, she wasn’t one to insert herself in other people’s lives. Everything about her made the reason for the title all the more clear; everything that she was was exactly what Xavier needed. She was made for him.
When we first meet Xavier, he has quite a grumpy exterior. He has become a loner after being let down by those who should have been there for him. He has no intentions of having anything to do with the woman whose boat is now docked next to his. He had reasons not to let her get to him, especially after learning about her family, but the more time he spent with her, the more he realized: she was made for him.
The chemistry between Vivienne and Xavier was palpable the moment they met, but it was only a taste of what was to come. While they may have done their best to pretend the other didn’t exist, it seemed their subconscious had other ideas, as their mind and eyes seemed to have a magnetic pull toward one another; their thoughts were consumed, and their eyes continuously sought one another out—and that was before they ever really spoke to one another. The glances and sarcastic comments between them played out like the very best kind of foreplay, until the moment their lips met and it became all sorts of explosive hotness.
The emotions were beyond measure, as each and every one of the characters felt like they permeated from the pages, making their way to your heart until they became embedded in your soul. The heartbreaking realization that, while this may be fiction, some variation of this is currently drowning someone we know, even if they aren't saying it aloud. Speak out, even when it seems no one is listening. Break the stigma.
As soon as I read the first word, it felt as though I was surrounded by family, and each page felt like the very best kind of literary hug. Made for You is a mesmerizing blend of searing chemistry, a swoony hero, a lively heroine, a breathtaking balance of emotions, from giggle-inducing clever banter to gut-wrenching sadness with everything in between, and some of the hottest steam I’ve read all year.
As the years pass and the memories fade, there’s no other author who has ever been able to instill the very real unconditional love brought to me in the form of a fictional father and daughter. As with previous books by Madison, I was offered an unexpected reminder, and I will never be able to convey what that means to me.

This is the second book in the made for series and I couldn't put it down. This book got me from the beginning and became one of my favorites of the author's.
Vivianne surprised me a lot, we had had small glimpses of her personality in the previous books, but nothing like having her as the main character. She is reserved, empathetic, very protective and a good listener, which makes her and Xavier complement each other well. Their connection is something very sweet.
Xavier, god, the way he had to deal with everything and get away from it just wow. I loved how the issues like anxiety and depression were dealt with, for someone who suffers from anxiety, the moment when Xavier tells his story and how lonely he felt had me in tears.
Xavier and Vivianne are one of my favorite couples of the author's and their story has a very special place in my heart.
Highly recommended if you like it:
*Grumpy/Sunshine
*Neighbors to lovers

Made For You is the second book in the Made For series, which is a spin-off of Only One, one of my favorite series. The close-knit Grant/Horton/Stone family get-togethers are full of witty banter, family drama, and high spirits. This is Vivienne Grant, the last single child of Matthew Grant, and Xavier Montgomery’s story.
Successful hockey player Xavier Montgomery left the game of hockey abruptly two years prior and with no explanation. He thought he had left the hockey life behind him only to discover his new bothersome neighbor is related to the famous Grant/Horton/Stone hockey family. He tried to stay away from her but how can he resist the charming and cheerful Vivienne?
Vivienne Grant loves the peacefulness of water, so she bought a boat and plans on living on it over the summer. Once she moves in, she meets her grumpy neighbor and his cute dog Beatrice. She isn’t sure what to make of him, but she will kill him with kindness and not allow him to affect her.
Vivienne and Xavier’s story was beautiful, emotional, and heartbreaking. I loved watching their relationship grow once Vivienne got through Xavier’s grumpy façade. They were able to connect and help each other and were perfect for one another. This was such an incredible book, and I cannot wait for Tristan and Abigail’s book, which is the next in the series.
I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I received an ARC of this book to review.
This is the second book in the Made For series, but it can be read as a standalone. It’s an enemies-to-lovers grumpy/sunshine sports romance.
Xavier and Vivienne are next door neighbors when Vivienne buys a boat next to his. He’s grumpy and doesn’t want anything to do with her. Eventually, he starts talking to her and letting her in.
There were topics on mental health, and I love that Natasha didn’t just skate over them. She addressed them and had the characters work through them.
This was such a cute story with a HEA. The only problem was that this is a standalone, but mentioned a lot of other people from other series/books, and I got confused trying to figure out who was who and their relation to Vivienne.
