Bellamy Creek Book 4: Tie Me Down by Melanie Harlow

Tie Me Down (Bellamy Creek, #4)
Bellamy Creek 4

Just friends.
That’s all Beckett Weaver and I have ever been.

Sure, he’s a hot cowboy who left Wall Street behind to take over his family’s ranch. Yes, I’ve had a secret crush on him since we were seventeen. And who wouldn’t appreciate those strong hands, that massive chest, and the way he fills out a pair of Levis?

He makes a girl sweat just looking at him . . . and I look. A lot.

But I’m a single mom trying to move on with my life, and he’s running that ranch single-handedly while taking care of his elderly father. We don’t even live in the same state. I only returned to my hometown of Bellamy Creek to sell my late mother’s house, and he just invited me and my son to stay with him because he’s got a big heart.

That’s not the only big thing he’s got--which I discover the night I finally sneak across the hall to his bedroom and shed my inhibitions right alongside my pajamas. And once we give into each other, we can’t stop.

The hayloft. The bed of his truck. The dock by the pond.

Nothing has ever felt so right, but his past has taught him not to believe in happily ever after, and every perfect night I spend in his arms brings us closer to goodbye.

Like any cowboy, he’s good with a rope and knows exactly how to tie me up.

But what if I want him to tie me down?

My Review: 5/5 Stars 

The final book in the Bellamy Creek series and we finally get Beckett's story! Beckett and Maddie have always been just friends. Despite the fact that Beckett has always had feelings her but in high school there was never a moment he could tell her, nor was he able to get out the words. So he let her go. Years later, Maddie is divorced and raising her son and she heads back to Bellamy Creek to finally take care of her mother's house. She is excited to show her son where she grew up but she is even more excited to see her dear friend, Beckett again. Through the years they have seen one another here and there and she will never forget how Beckett has always been there for her. But being home again she is starting to realize the secret crush she had on Beckett all those years ago may just be reciprocated. Truths are out and isn't long until Beckett and Maddie discover what a relationship could look like between them. But there are complications and old fears stirring up. Especially with Beckett. He is afraid to put himself out there, to tell Maddie how he feels because what if one day she wakes up and realizes she doesn't want him? How can something last forever? And Maddie wonders if she is rushing something once again. She has always jumped first and realizes too late the mistake. But perhaps Beckett wouldn't be a mistake this time. It will take a lot for them to let go of their fears and follow their hearts. Loved their story! Another great addition to this series and I'm so sad it is over!
