Time has passed. But their chemistry remains.
Cruel North, an all-new surprise pregnancy, forced proximity contemporary romance with sizzling chemistry from New York Times bestselling author JB Salsbury is now available!
Cruel North is an angsty second-chance, enemies to lovers romance where the most hated man in the North Brothers world finally gets brought to his knees.
A teenage girl with my eyes and a familiar glare, strolls into my life and she’s calling me Dad.
Vanessa was my high school girlfriend and the smartest person I knew. She had a plan, a future, and she swore nothing would get in the way. Until she became pregnant. I thought we agreed on our plan. I sent her the money. Then she disappeared.
Her parents told me she was in South America for a year. They told me she needed space. I never heard from her again.
Seventeen years later and she’s back. I’m staring into those green eyes that used to tempt and taunt me. But it’s not just about us anymore. We have a daughter.
Wanting to get to know her, I convince them to move in with me for one month. I’m so angry with Vanessa and she seems to be equally upset. Every insult from her smart mouth invites me to engage. The brutal chemistry between us ignites old embers. I wish I could hate her. Instead, I want her.
Hayes freaking North. I have been waiting, not so patiently, for this man’s book for what feels like forever and let me tell you- it did not disappoint!! Hayes has been such an enigma through this North Brothers series. He’s easily always been the one you love to hate. Knowing myself though, I knew I would end up finding some redemption in a character that seemed unredeemable through earlier books. JB Salsbury has a way of making you feel so strongly against a character but also still search for that sliver of a soul on the inside. That was definitely the case with Hayes.
I’m so glad we finally got to hear more of his story. I loved learning about his childhood, his history, even though there are obvious parts we all wish we were different. I love what Vanessa was to him, then and now. I love that he has always encouraged her to be exactly who she should be. I hate the choice he made as a young, immature teen, but I also don’t ignore the fact that he had August as a father and that most certainly impacted Hayes and his decisions growing up.
Hayes getting to meet and get to know Haven was everything. It made my heart hurt for all the time that was lost, but also made it happy to see him just jump in as best as he could figure out to do. I love his fatherly development in this story. I loved his emotional maturity as we watched it grow and unfold. I loved his fierce love of Vanessa as a person and how strong she is and how strong she raised their daughter to be. I love their fire. I LOVED the end of this book. There is just so much about this story that I love, it’s hard to put it all into words. Cruel North was another incredible installment in this series and I am so happy I had the chance to read this one early. Hayes and Vanessa’s story kept me locked in from page one and I hope to be able to read more one day! I also have to mention- I love the cameos of all the other characters I’ve fallen in love with in this series, thank you for that Mrs. Salsbury!!
