Worked Up by Tessa Bailey
4.0
**I received a copy of Worked Up from Net Galley and Entangled Publishing in exchange for an honest review**
Duke works as a machinery mechanic at the local factory but he lives with his four divorcee sisters. He just wanted some peace and quiet and to end baseball at the local bar, Third Shift. When Samantha walks into the bar and starts being harassed by three mechanics, Duke reluctantly rescues her. His best friends, Vaughn, River and their four-year-old daughter, Marcy who lets his watch SportsCenter in exchange for non-organic juice boxes. I love how when Sam asks for his phone number he puts it in her phone naming himself E. Vil Gladiator.
Samantha Waverly is in town to meet with her brother, Renner, who will fund her Art on Wheels project if she marries the person of his choosing. Only thing is Samantha doesn't love Hudson and refuses to marry him. She's an illustrator for children's book who loves puns and drawing anyone with just a little bit of information, hence Gladiator Duke who rescued her. When both Duke and Samantha decide to get married in Atlantic City so that she can get the funding from her brother. Little does she know that their wedding night is a lesson in possession by Duke that will have her never wanting to leave his bed ever again. But of course in the light of day they both have to deal Renner knowing about the marriage.
This is one hot book and will have you blushing and hoping that both Duke and Samantha will be able to overcome obstacles to be together. A solid 4.9 star book!
