Summary:
Carrigan O’Malley has always known her arranged marriage would be more about power and prestige than passion. But after one taste of the hard-bodied, whiskey-voiced James Halloran, she’s ruined for anyone else. Too bad James and his family are enemy number 1.
Hallorans vs. O’Malleys—that’s how it’s always been. James should be thinking more about how to expand his family’s empire instead of how silky Carrigan’s skin is against his and how he can next get her into his bed. Those are dangerous thoughts. But not nearly as dangerous as he’ll be if he can’t get what he wants: Carrigan by his side for the rest of their lives.
My Thoughts:
I liked this one more than the first one. Carrigan’s story was really interesting, I loved the ‘resistant to being sold off in a marriage/falls for the super enemy’ plot line.
It was dark, spicy, and oh so enjoyable. I really liked James and Carrigan, their push and pull, and their cocky attitudes towards each other. Carrigan is so strong and I loved her as a character and FMC.
This is definitely my favorite of the series!
Heated Rivals by Katee Robert is book 2 in the O’Malley’s Series.
Read worthy.
