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.

Lori Foster doubles the pleasure with twice the sexy sweetness and a smidge of mystery. Small town reads are my addiction and Brooklin and Nathan with their penchant for unpredictability, stir up trouble, while Hogan and Violet spice up their lives with a bit of wicked temptation. Hot fun meets the danger zone making the tittle a perfect. Lori Foster is worth the wait.

4.5 Stars I've been waiting for this one since Don't Tempt Me. I loved this one as much as the first book. I really liked both Hogan and Violet together. They complement each other so perfectly. I also loved the way Violet is with Hogan's teenage son. Violet is exactly what that little family needs. There is trouble a foot though and it involves the secondary story that's going on with Nathan and Brooklin. That love story just added to this book. It wasn't confusing having two stories going on. I could follow along quite easily. I also enjoyed seeing the characters from Don't Tempt Me. I have to say my absolute favorite scene of the book is the end. I could picture it perfectly in my head and gave us a nice way to end this book. Another winner by Lori Foster!
