Synopsis
I have one rule. No distractions.
I’ve been burned enough to not let anything get in the way of my dream.
And that is what I am here to do.
I am at my family’s vineyard ready to revive it back to life.
But no one told me they hired someone to do my job.
I should know better than to let Everett Taylor get to me.
I hate him.
No matter that he looks like sex on a stick.
Or volunteers as a firefighter.
Or acts like a saint to my great-grandmother.
I try to hold myself back. But with every minute I spend with him I just want to get closer.
But I know the heat between us will eventually turn to ash.
—
Distractions only.
That’s all I ever let myself have. Never a deeper connection.
Until I meet her.
Layla Jones despises me as much as I despise her.
She’s selfish and annoying.
I should ignore her.
But I can’t fight my attraction to her.
And our time together creates enough heat to light us ablaze.
But we only have the summer and I know this fire is going to burnout.
Review
This book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Tori Fox!
Burnout is a standalone book set in Everydag Heroes series and tells the story of Layla and Everret.
I haven’t read a book by Tori Fox that I didn’t like. Burnout was another amazing Romance book by her and I really loved Layla and Everret’s story. Although this is a Romance read, it also talks about some tough topics such as loss and an overdose. There is no trigger warning so please keep in mind that these topics will be discussed in this book. I really loved reading Burnout but I wish the author included a trigger warning. But besides that, I really enjoyed reading this book and reading about Layla and Everret.
I really enjoyed Layla and Everret’s story because it was an enemies to lovers one. I’m a sucker for enemies to lovers because there are always fights that eventually end in the character’s making out, etc. I always love the build up of these types of Romance books! Layla and Everret are so good for each other even though they didn’t realise it at the beginning of the book. I loved reading in both perspectives and I enjoyed getting to know the characters.
Burnout was a good and enjoyable Romance read. Even though I’m in a reading slump, I finished this book in two days. I was really happy with that, and it means that this book was really good! I really loved Layla and Everret’s story and I also liked the vineyard concept. It’s not something I’ve read before which made me enjoy this book even more! Tori Fox did it again and I’m so excited for her next Romance book!
