Need Your Peace by Mariah Goodwin

emotional hopeful sad

4.5

Need Your Peace by Margaret Goodwin is book 3 in the Tampa Thunder series. It was such a good quick read. If you like books where he falls first, brothers best friend, forced proximity, hockey romance, single dad, and marriage of convenience then you will love this book.

Penny FMC is a kindergarten teacher who just recently ended a long-term relationship with Ethan who was toxic and boring. 

Luke MMC is Penny's brother's best friend who plays hockey for the Tampa Thunder and is known as a playboy.

One day a 2 week old little girl is dropped off at his door step, he soon learns that Everlee is his daughter. He realizes that he needs to make some changes to his life and fast. Penny suggests they get married to help with Luke's reputation, he can help her learn to have fun. Luke soon realizes that he is falling for her. Because of what Ethan put Penny through she struggles with feeling like she is good enough for Luke.

This book was so cute and I didn’t want to put it down. Luke becomes so protective of Penny and treats her how she deserves to be treated. I loved watching Penny realize how she deserved to be treated and loved. I loved this story so much. I received this book as an ARC in exchange for my honest thoughts and opinions.
