Synopsis:

Brick left the stripper pole and bright lights of Vegas ready to turn his life around. Chicago and culinary school seemed just the thing to getting his life back on track. 
Determined to chase his dreams, he can't let himself fall back into his old ways. 
But the allure of a sweet rendezvous with Paige is too much to resist. 
The last thing he expected was for their hot night to end with them both in the police station. Or to end up in witness protection. 
Together








My Review: 


 Sweet Beginnings kicks off the Forever Sweet series which follows Brick and Paige and their unusual relationship. We start with Brick and Paige tryign to play off the "it's only a fling" card. But in the midst of their are we/aren't we hidden tryst, their world implodes as they witness something they shouldn't. Landing at the police department was bad enough, but discovering that they have to leave home, headed for a new town in a new state with new identities feels like the worst thing ever or could it be the best.

 Sweet Beginnings is just a part of the story, an introduction giving readers a little background and giving us the footing to continue on with the series and see where it leads. However, even if it is a short start, it definitely doesn't lack for anything. These pages ooze sex apppeal, there is angst, there is tension in spades, and there's the barest hint of danger and suspense. Just how long can Paige hold off on admitting she has more than a one (few) time fling with this man who is right in the thick of it with her? What's going to happen now that they are settling into their new identities?

 I can't wait to find out, because I know the next book is going to be just as full of snark, banter, and hot, steamy moments. Brick and Paige are going to find out just how strong they can be, because right now, they only have each other.
