I Could Be Yours is a complete standalone novel with close ties to both the Toronto Terror and Tilton University series. We follow Nate as he struggles with falling in love with the best friend of his brother’s fiance.
About I Could Be Yours
Nate is the middle brother, between older brother and hockey star Tristan (from If You Hate Me) and younger brother Brody. Their mother left them when they were young and none of them have ever gotten over it. He has been soured on relationships as he has had them go bad without warning. So instead, he is choosing to just have a simple, physical relationship with the one person he knows he should not be having it with.
Essie is Rix’s (from If You Hate Me) best friend since forever. Her little sister, Cami (from Chase Lovett Wants Me), is involved with Nate’s little brother’s best friend Chase. Talk about six degrees of separation. Throw in the fact that she is the Maid of Honor and Nate is the Best Man for Tristan and Rix which forces them to work together to plan and organize all of the wedding related events.
Essie is a very organized person. She creates lists and schedules to make sure everything gets done, on time and on budget. Nate likes to fly by the seat of his pants. After seeing everything Essie has done to make the wedding events a success, he knows he needs to step up.
Years ago, Nate and Essie shared a kiss. It was right before he left for college. He was supposed to call her, but he never did. She has hated him ever since. But when a mishap occurs and they get locked in the bathroom together, while sniping at each other, sparks start flying. These two have massive chemistry, but are working overtime to ignore it.
But what happens if they decide to just have a physical relationship. No feelings, no expectations. Can they do that?
Nate has had relationships go bad. So has Essie. She is notorious for falling in love immediately and planning her happily ever after too soon. He has mommy issues, and abandonment issues, that he really needs to work through. So what will happen when they both catch feelings?
So many things happen in this story. Baby brother Brody is the drunk of the group. Dad has a new girlfriend. Jelly fish. Young and dumb pranks. Jet skis. A surprise visitor. And an ally no one expected.
Impressions
So many emotions went through me as I listened to this book. I have to admit I laughed so hard at the the results of the one adventure that ended with vomit. Holy cow, I could totally see that happening. But then my anger rose with the surprise visitor who thought they had the right to attend the wedding. Top it off with the one person I never expected to help clean up this mess, let alone the way it was done, and this story just rocks.
Listening to Tristan and Rix get married and seeing all of the love between them and among all of their friends and family clinched this as one of my favorite Helena Hunting books ever.
Narration
Teddy Hamilton has been in my ears a lot lately. That should tell you how much I enjoy listening to him. Savannah Peachwood is one of my absolute favorite female narrators. Sadly, until recently I have not listened to her much. So this was such a nice listen for me.
