Crimson Club Book 4: Left on Read by Willow Dixon

 

Crimson Club Book 4

Using a dating app to find someone willing to sell their tools for cheap might be unconventional, but it wasn't like I was having any luck finding my person on them. I'm about to give up on my search for love, and tools, when Hayden messages me.

Not only is my stolen-tool problem solved, but it turns out he’s a great guy, and we quickly become friends. But the more time we spend together, the more I notice something between us.

Something that doesn’t just feel like friendship.

Something that makes me want more. Makes me want him.

Watching Hayden lose control is everything. So is knowing he can’t stay away from me, either.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

I have been so excited to read River’s book and it is finally here! And it was so good! After River’s car is broken into and the tools him and his brother bought for their construction job are stolen, he is desperate to find a way to replace everything. So he gets a little creative in his attempt to find a way to cheaply replace everything. He signs up on a dating app and puts his plea out there, though of course, with a little help from Nick. What he doesn’t really expect is a guy to actually come back with an answer to his Hail Mary and actually spark a connection with him. Hayden isn’t sure what to believe when he finds River’s profile. Tired of the dating world himself, he tries one more app and winds up finding River. Once they actually meet, a bit of connection forms between them. Is it friendship? Is it more? Hayden isn’t really sure, but he takes a leap and eventually kisses River. River is surprised at first but is quick to realize that what he is feeling is a connection and an attraction to Hayden. 

He never really thought about giving himself the options of guys to date. No one has ever sparked that in him to try. Until Hayden. For River, dating apps and socializing can be hard. He likes to make connections first before anything more can happen with someone. He also runs into problems where no one can keep up with his mind well and he never truly knows where anyone stands. He wants to find a partner, he truly does, but it isn’t so easy. And though he misses his cues from Hayden at first, once he realizes this thing between them, he’s all in. Or as in as one can be when someone like Hayden is guarding his heart and is sure that it is only a matter of time before River leaves him behind. These two were just too cute and sweet and you just wanted to shake them both to communicate with one another! Both have been through so much and deserve to find their person. I really adored their story. All the characters in this series have been so great and I’m definitely excited for the next book!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
