Friends with benefits was never the plan…
Melanie Jacobs is in trouble. With three jobs—including running her ranch—and dwindling funds, she’s exhausted. Not to mention desperately trying to hide a secret. Unfortunately, her best friend Colton Freeze knows all too well that’s something is going on, and he won’t give up until he knows exactly what he needs to fix.
Then Colton learns the truth—that Melanie’s future happiness rests in the fickle hands of fate, and her chances for having a family are shrinking with every passing day. Her only comfort is Colton, but when a heated argument between them turns into an even hotter kiss, the boundaries of their friendship are erased, leaving only a scorching-hot hunger for more.
Every kiss—every touch—is a stolen pleasure. But will their new friends-with-sexy-benefits arrangement bring them closer together, or destroy everything they once shared?

Reviewer’s Thoughts
This was my first book in the Maverick, Montana series. I have to say, I’ll be going back and reading the other 2 books. Rebecca Zanetti sure does know how to write a dirty talking cowboy.
Melanie and Colton have been best of friends since she moved to Maverick when she was four years old. But as Colton comes back home to take over the family business, feelings between the two of them change. It’s like they both realize they aren’t little kids or hormonal teenagers, but adults who’ve suddenly realized exactly what they want.
I liked Melanie and Colton together. She didn’t take his crap, pushing Colton’s need for plans and he pushed Melanie when she needed, but was also willing to give her the one thing she craved. But what I absolutely loved is how dirty Colton was and how turned on Melanie was with it. The two of them were special, because they were able to take their practically life long friendship and transition over to a romance that you know will stick forever.
I can’t wait to read more from this series. I’m hoping Hawk and Dawn’s story is next, because it seems like there is a really good story there.
USA Today Bestselling Author Rebecca Zanetti has worked as an art curator, Senate aide, lawyer, college professor, and a hearing examiner – only to culminate it all in stories about Alpha males and the women who claim them. She writes dark paranormals, romantic suspense, and sexy contemporary romances.
Growing up amid the glorious backdrops and winter wonderlands of the Pacific Northwest has given Rebecca fantastic scenery and adventures to weave into her stories. She resides in the wild north with her husband, children, and extended family who inspire her every day–or at the very least give her plenty of characters to write about.

I’m really looking forward to reading this one! After I finish my current read, it’s next on the list! Great review 🙂
I too will be getting my hands on this one, I have a thing for Cowboys! I will need to get through my current read which shouldn’t be too hard as it’s a great page turner. It’s The Prosecutor by Adrienne Giordano, adriennegiordano.com is her site. I recommend her, her romantic suspense/thrillers are fantastic!
Looking forward to reading this one! Can’t wait!!
