Love Him Breathless by E.M. Lindsey

4.0

On the Market has become an enjoyable series set in the small town of Cherry Creek. Whilst still interacting with already established couples, we now get to meet and have the HEA for other members of the community and the new people who come into town. Fitz has lived there all his life and is now the Fire Chief at the local firehouse. Half of his body may be covered in burns from a trauma in his teens but he doesn't let that hold him back. Completely opposite is Antoine who lived his life moving constantly around the world. He struggles with relationships and when he comes to town to help sort the town's tourism gets off to the worst of starts thanks to a wandering goat and Fitz who is the first responder.
They get off on the wrong foot from the start and are constantly antagonising each other, maybe Fitz more so than Antoine but it makes for a very entertaining relationship that goes hand in hand with how often Antoine finds himself in a situation that requires medical attention. You can sense the attraction between them but both are reluctant for their own reasons, neither having great history regarding romance. Elsewhere, Antoine makes friends with quite a few residents around town, all seeing how much work he's putting in to helping their town.
This is a really good slow burn romance that flows well throughout the story and comes together nicely for the MC's at the end. I look forward to more from this series and need to go back and find out more on the original series on Cherry Creek.
Nick has again done a great job of narrating an EM Lindsey story. There is one or two accents that were just a little off for me but they were small, side characters and didn't detract my enjoyment of the banter back and forth between the MC's and their determination to not give in to their attraction.
