Release Blitz + Review: "Only Mine" by Laura Pavlov

I'm delighted to join the release blitz celebrating "Only Mine" by Laura Pavlov, the fifth and final book of the Honey Mountain series. Characters from the previous books make appearances in this one, but it reads as a standalone.
 
Now that she's passed the bar exam, attorney Dylan Thomas is ready to find her dream job. After several competitive rounds of interviews with the San Francisco Lions hockey team, she's managed to impress both the team's owner and the outgoing chief counsel. However, the owner's son, Wolfgang Wayburn, is concerned that her fiery temper makes her a bad fit for the job. He begrudgingly agrees to give her 90 days to prove herself, starting with accompanying him on a two-week recruiting trip. With Wolf preparing to take over the team's day-to-day operations so that his father can retire, it's a test for both him and Dylan, and they'll have to figure out a way to put their animosity aside to get the job done. After ten years as a Navy SEAL, Wolf's sure he can handle anything Dylan throws at him, but surprisingly, she may be the one person who can bring him to his knees.

Much like the previous books in this series, "Only Mine" gave me all the feels and I absolutely loved it. Dylan and Wolf had chemistry for days and their bickering/bantering was tremendously entertaining. The last third or so of the story took a more serious turn, but by then I couldn't put the book down because I was so invested in them as a couple. I could not have predicted how their story would end, but I was rooting for them the whole way.

Overall, "Only Mine" was a fantastic conclusion to one of my favorite series of 2022. I highly recommend it for all contemporary romance fans and can't wait to get my hands on whatever Laura Pavlov writes next!

About "Only Mine"

Wolf Wayburn is the devil in an Armani suit. Most women would drop to their knees at just the sight of him. Lucky for me—I’m not most women.

The first time we met, he cut me off at a gas station.
So, I flashed him the bird and mocked his family jewels.
The second time we met, he tried to get me fired.
He took his shot—and he missed.
At least for now.
Wolf Wayburn was an ex-Navy SEAL with an attitude.
But it would take a lot more than the big, bad Wolf to scare me off.
I had ninety days to win the man over.
To convince him that I was the right person for the job.
But spending endless amounts of time with him proved more challenging than I’d expected.
He was stubborn and broody and charming and sexy—all at the same time.
I despised him as much as I craved him.
We taunted and teased and terrorized one another for weeks.
The first time he dropped to his knees, it was to search me for a weapon.
The second time… it was an altogether different story.
I never planned to fall for the enemy.
Because I knew it was easier to hate Wolf Wayburn than to love him.
