Wild Steamy Hook-Up by Piper Rayne

4.0

Wild Steamy Hookup is the third book in this series but it was my first ever read from these authors. Based on my reading, this could still be read as a stand alone even if its feels like interconnecting with previous characters appearing not to mention that glimpses of their pasts was mentioned on earlier books. Nevertheless, I was able to follow through the story but for best reading experience, I would advice starting from book one.

Dom and Val had a complicated past, although it didn't stop them from harboring strong feelings for each other. And it was evident from that passionate night they've shared at Vegas, they still couldn't get enough. They say what happens in Vegas, stay in Vegas but this time, it followed them back to their little hometown.

I find it hilarious the way their meddlesome mothers guilt trip them into staying married. I felt like I was back home watching those beloved telenovellas me and mom was a fan of. This book definitely gave me that vibe and I loved it! Also, even I could vouch that at some point, these kind of wily meddling happened to some friends I know. Heck, I watch it happened to one of my aunt, LOL. So, in a way, this was bringing back good old memories and that even at this age and time, even if you're a grown up, tough person, they can still reduced you down to a fumbling teenager.

There were moments that I couldn't help but want to smack some sense to them and yell for them to get their act together. I'm rooting for these two. They've wasted a lot of years circling around their feelings and it is high time that they sit down and talk about it. What happened in Vegas was nothing short of fate. This was a fun, second chance romance with a wild dash of meddling but loveable second characters. Can't wait to read the story of the baby in the family, Blanca!
