Will by Kat Savage
Willette Archer has a secret—though some would argue how well kept it actually is. As right-hand woman and best friend to the owner of Bird’s Eye Tattoo Studio, her job has become her whole life. So, she occupies her days with shop decisions to avoid her disappointing dating life.
Of course, that might also have something to do with her two-decade old infatuation with her aforementioned best friend’s older brother.
Derek Tanner is at a loss—with basically everything. His apartment lease is up, most of his belongings are somewhere in storage, and the good doctor has been pulling extra shifts at the hospital due to lack of staff. So, yeah. His life is chaos. Thanks to these wonderful circumstances, dating is nowhere on his radar.
When his little brother suggests he stay in Willette’s spare room for the time being, he’s both grateful and hesitant. Sure, he grew up with Will too, but they’ve never been as close—let alone in close quarters.
It doesn’t take very long for Doctor Derek to start seeing Will in a new light. This makes him think perhaps he should be examined. Will, on the other hand, is this close to feigning injury just so he’ll touch her already.
When boundaries are crossed and relationships are finally taken to the next level, will Willette get exactly what she’s been hoping for since childhood, or will her fantasy be forever ruined?
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Will was a favorite side character of mine from Hawk. And when we learn that she's secretly had a crush on Derek, Hawk's brother, for years I was excited. I totally felt like I read this one lighting fast. I could not get enough.
Will grew up with the Tanner brothers and has had a crush on Derek forever. She's never told only one and never plans on telling Derek. Now to make matters awkward Hawk has asked her if Derek can stay with her while he apartment hunts in the area. Will can't think of a way to back out.
Derek has always thought of Will as family. But he's noticing her in ways he never had before.
They fall into a comfortable rhythm but when she goes on a date something shifts and he finds himself interrupting her second date. When she ends up drunk that night he doesn't let her leave with her date and takes her home. She gets sick and he puts her to bed to sleep it off.
He asks her out and things are going great. Until he finds out about her crush.
Now he's making excuses, freezing her out and she's temporarily staying with Hawk and Drew.
