About this eBook

In a charming Ohio town, love finds a way twice in this sweet contemporary romance by the New York Times–bestselling author of Don’t Tempt Me.

Single dad Hogan Guthrie is getting his life back on track, and working as the “barbecue master” at a local diner is just a temporary detour. He and restaurant owner Violet Shaw constantly butt heads . . . until one night they end up mingling other parts instead. Hogan thought he had the recipe for happiness all figured out. But loyal, carefree Violet is daring him to trust his impulses . . . and see just how sweet small-town living—and loving—can be.

Nathan Hawley traded his SWAT team credentials for a sheriff’s badge, but a gorgeous new neighbor is shaking up his orderly life. Nathan has a hunch there’s more to Brooklin Sweet than meets the eye—but given her caution about getting involved, he has his work cut out for him. Still, there’s something about the elusive beauty Nathan can’t walk away from—and helping her come to terms with her past might pave the way to the future they both secretly long for.

Like Don't Tempt Me, the first book in the Guthrie Brothers series, Worth the Wait delivers two complete stories for the price of one! With Hogan and Violet and Nathan and Brooklin, we're treated to the romance we've come to love from Ms. Foster, with a bit of mystery and suspense thrown in to keep us on our toes. And alongside our 2 main couples is an outstanding cast of secondary characters from the small town in Ohio, including Colt, Hogan's unbelievably sweet, kind, and caring son- what a complete doll! Ms. Foster does a wonderful job of writing 2 overlapping storylines, without confusing the reader as to what is going on. Each story is fully fleshed out, with Hogan and Violet's story being the main focus. I really enjoyed these 2. As a single father his sole focus has been caring for Colt, and he hasn't entertained the idea of permanence with any one woman, until things with Violet heat up. Nathan is the town sheriff and becomes intrigued with quiet woman who's moved next door. She's not looking for a relationship, she's got a past that she's running from, but Nathan is not one to back down from a challenge. And he definitely won't let a woman fight on her own. Worth the Wait is a classic feel good, small town Lori Foster romance.

I really enjoyed this book. There's romance, humor and sexy times. Hogan and Violet are perfect for each other. Violet is a spunky, sassy independent woman who complements Hogan. The banter and chemistry between them was fantastic. I loved the relationship between Hogan and his son, Colt. Even get a little bit of story from Colt's perspective which was great. There is a second romantic storyline of Nathan and Brooklin. They are sweet together and she added to the intrigue to the story. Add Jason (Hogan's brother) and Honor, Sullivan and Lexie (from the previous book) into the mix and you have a yourself the makings of a fun, fantastic story. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader copy of this book.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Hogan Guthrie is slowly rebuilding his life after the death of his wife. After losing his wife he discovered she has taken all of their son Colt’s college fund. Finally finding a good job and trying hard to save enough for Colt's college, Hogan starts to grill ribs for Violet at her diner. These two have incredible chemistry but Hogan doesn't want to get involved. Violet is a hard woman to ignore and soon Hogan realizes this. Lori Foster does it again. Can't wait for her next book!!
