Enemies to Lovers by Lani Lynn Vale
Series: Content Advisory #3
Genres: Romantic Suspense
Baker Ritter knew how to pick them.
She met the man she thought she was going to marry in middle school, gave him some of the best years of her life, for him to leave her pregnant and alone hours before she’s due to have his baby.
To make matters worse, he brings his side chick to the birth, and she’s left with a decision—fight for what she wants, or cut her losses.
What she should’ve done was cut her losses. What she does instead is take him back and experiences what it’s like to live in hell.
When she’s at the lowest of the low, she calls her dad, an ex-con, who sends the one person he knows that can fix it all.
Copper Clayborne.***
Copper Clayborne has no time for nonsense—that nonsense being a woman and a baby.
But that woman’s dad saved his life in prison and kept saving it until he was strong enough to save himself.
He owes everything to Baker’s dad, so of course he says yes when he asks to let Baker move in with him.
That doesn’t mean that he has to have anything to do with her.
He’s got a business to fix—then bring down in the most fantastic, public way possible.
He’s also got years of celibacy to make up for.
He doesn’t have time to fall for the woman and her kid.
He certainly doesn’t have the mental headspace to deal with her drama.
He gives it his all, but Baker wiggles into his cracked and bleeding heart, and makes herself right at home. Whether he wants her there or not.

my review
Copper was asked to help Baker by her father, whom Copper met in prison, and he didn’t hesitate. She was in a bad situation and he helped her have a place to land and get her feet underneath her.
Baker knows she needs to leave her boyfriend for not only herself but also for her baby. She also knows that she is suffering from postpartum depression and it is taking its toll on her. So she does what any girl will do and calls her daddy for help. I’m not judging because I would call mine in a heartbeat!
Copper takes her and her son, Holt, in which is the beginning of healing for both of them. Let me say that the connection baby Holt and Copper had was indescribable. I loved every single scene they were in together. I knew there was something special about Copper. Of course there is plenty of drama while they work through getting together.
We do get some closure on the whole Reign (whom we’ve met in previous books) situation and all I am going to say about that is WOW! We also see Copper get the closure he needs when it comes to his father’s business. It brings him full circle and Baker shows him that he is as broken as he thinks he is.
I will also say that I love Copper’s neighbor and wanted more from her. Maybe we will see her again in future books because she was a great character in my opinion. I am also ready for more of the Truth Tellers MC.
