Forever
Forever Mine is book two in Erin Nicholas’s Opposites Attract Series and revolves around Maya Goodwin and Dr. Alex Nolan. These two have some amazing chemistry, which might have started instantly, but develops into something much deeper. Forever Mine, is well-written with an easy-going dialogue that is heated at times, but overall, fun!
Maya used to be a cop, but because of an injury, she moved on to teaching martial arts to kids. She’s amazing at what she does. She instills confidence, courage and empowerment to the kids, while allowing them to have fun and pretend to be superheroes. Maya is protective of the people she loves, fearless, and completely amazing. She’s also a geek who kicks butt! Once she meets Alex, her world shifts. He distracts her in the best possible way.
Alex just found out he has a daughter. A nine-year old daughter from a one-night stand. The only reason the mom finally came forward is because she has a blood disorder, the same as Alex. Alex wants to connect with his daughter and to do that he needs Maya’s help. His daughter is a bit of a geek and that’s right up Maya’s alley. But it’s clear that his priority needs to be with his family, but can that include Maya, too?
The only problem I had with Alex was his timing. He didn’t tell Rachel (his daughter’s mom) or Maya about each other, until it was almost too late. I understand his reasoning but Rachel ended up being a very nice woman, who welcomed Maya into the family. I love how the author didn’t go the jealous route and make him choose. Both women were strong and loving, in their own ways. Alex was a good character, as well. He was very understanding about finding out he had a daughter, when most people would have flipped out. He’s also an amazing dad, for someone who was just thrown into the relationship. Overall, all the characters were fascinating to read about and completely likeable. Contemporary readers will rejoice with this 5-star read!
OVERALL RATING:
BLURB:
Maya Goodwin doesn't believe in holding back. Ever. As a cop, she never hesitated to throw herself into harm's way to save someone. Even after an injury on the job forces her to retire, she's not afraid to keep risking it all to get the life she wants. With a new career teaching martial arts to kids already underway, she's looking forward to the future - and taking a chance on the unbelievably hot Dr. Alex Nolan.
Maya - daring and spontaneous - is the exact opposite of what Alex always thought he wanted. But when a nine-year-old daughter he never knew existed shows up on his doorstep, Maya is the one who helps them hold it together. With love on the line, will the guy who's always played it safe be willing to take the biggest risk of all?

I'm looking forward to this book. Ms. Nicholas is an auto-buy author for me and has been ever since she published her first book. Great review.
