Blurb

From the moment we met, Tessa Morgan pegged me as trouble. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. I’m funny. Easy-going. My years as a high school football star worked wonders on my body as well as my reputation. I’m Colton Carmichael. Everyone likes me.

Everyone except Tessa.

And believe me, the feeling is mutual.

Every time we run into each other, there’s an explosion to rival any fireworks display out there. We couldn’t be more opposite if we tried, but chance keeps pushing us together. Before long, those explosions of anger turn into…something else. Everyone I know loves Tessa, and the more I get to know her, the more I understand why.

She challenges me to become a better version of myself while I teach her to loosen her death grip on the rules.

Love was never supposed to be part of my vocabulary, much less the house with the picket fence, or kids running around the yard. Not for this rolling stone. The way Tessa and I see our futures is as different as we are. We’re headed in opposite directions and our relationship stretches out between us, a rubber band pulled taut and thin.

So now what? For the first time since high school, I look at the future with hope instead of indignation. I can’t stand the idea of being without her, but how long can you ignore a freight train coming straight at you when you’re standing on the tracks?

Along Comes Trouble is a standalone, enemies to lovers romance.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Is love enough to overcome irreconcilable differences? That is he dilemma faced by Colton and Tessa in Along Comes Trouble, the 4th book in the Brookside series. The story also ties into the Moore books, as Tessa is originally from Bliss and a friend of Ellie’s. I love when an author puts little details like that into books.

When Tessa first meets Colton, he is everything she wants to avoid in a guy. Although they definitely het off on the wrong foot, as they spend time together and get to know one another, they realize that they actually complement each other well.

But even as their relationship progresses, Colton can’t escape the middle child issues he’s saddled himself with, and the fact that those have led him to not wanting children becomes a sore subject for him and Tessa. Will they be able to reconcile their differences and love one another enough to figure out a compromise?

Along Comes Trouble is exactly what I expect from an Abby Brooks book. It made me smile, laugh, cry and cheer in all the right places. Well done! I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
