In this steamy and emotional contemporary

have the love they've always dreamed of.
After years with no one but herself to rely on, Hattie
Yates has finally met the man of her dreams. But she was taught from a young
age that it was hopeless to dream. There was only success, failure was not an
option and it had terrible consequences. Now, the thought of another
disappointment petrifies her. But when a suspicious phone call leads to more
trouble than she can handle, there’s only one man Hattie trusts to help . . .
Axl Pantera knows Hattie is the only woman for him—and so
does Hattie. Yet despite the attraction burning between them, Hattie refuses to
let Axl in. The former soldier is determined to woo Hattie into letting down
her walls, yet when danger comes calling, he finds himself battling for more
than her heart. Axl will do anything to prove to Hattie that they’re meant to
be, but first, he’ll need to keep her safe.

Dream Spinner is the third title in the Dream Team series featuring Hattie and Axl. Their story is not only steamy and emotional but has his fair share of drama and moments of sweetness that’s sure to have you swooning.
Hattie is a talented dancer and artist, who struggles to recognizer her own worth. She’s has her fair share of vulnerabilities and insecurities that make her all the more relatable. Hattie is an intriguing character who despite a traumatic past, and being emotionally scarred and shy, she’s has an underlying strength, resilience, and drive.
Axl is a protective alpha, who has the tendency to be a bit of an ass. His redeemable qualities are that he’s patient, caring, driven, playful, supportive and straightforward, and not afraid to tell it like it is.
I loved the cameos of characters from several past series including the Rock Chicks, Dream Man, Unfinished Hero and Chaos. An engaging story of healing, hope, love, friendship and family, with elements of mystery, intrigue and suspense that has left me eager for Auggie and Pepper’s story.
“Yo, Axe,” Hawk greeted.
“You got a minute?”
In answer, Hawk tipped his
head to the chair opposite his desk and tossed his phone on the top of it.
Since Hawk rarely sat, the men
who visited him didn’t either.
But for this, Axl closed the
door behind him after he entered, moved to a chair, and put his ass in it.
Hawk watched this, and he
hesitated, but then he joined him, sitting behind his desk.
“Is everything cool?” Hawk
asked.
“I got a sitch. Personal. And
I was hoping you might talk it through with me. Maybe have some insight.”
“Hit me,” Hawk invited.
And there was one of the
bennies of working for Cabe “Hawk” Delgado.
He was a good boss, generous
with his knowledge, gave credit where it was due, didn’t get in your face if
you fucked up and held up your hand that you did…
And he had time for you even
when he didn’t.
“I met Hattie’s dad last
night.”
Hawk’s lips thinned.
Right.
His boss might not be in on
their chats, but not much happened with his crew that Hawk didn’t know about.
So he knew about Don Yates.
“I got blindsided,” Axl told
him.
“How?” Hawk asked.
“He loves her, Hawk.”
Hawk held his gaze a beat
before he sat back in his chair.
Yeah.
This was going to be a
conversation.
Hawk’s voice was lower when he
inquired, “He loves her, and he hits her?”
Axl shook his head. “I got no
excuse for that. Or the verbal abuse he keeps doling out. What I know is,
recently, he called her a whore.”
“Jesus,” Hawk clipped.
“She didn’t tell me that. She
told Ryn, Ryn told Boone. And I got it from Boone. But before…” He paused, then
got to it, “I can’t step in with her dad. She knows their relationship is
dysfunctional. She feels beholden. I could only have her back. Until I heard
that. Then I shared I was going to have to have words with her father.”
“Good,” Hawk murmured.
“Then I got there, and the man
was practically beaming, he was so fuckin’ happy Hattie brought her boyfriend
over to meet him.”
“Fuck,” Hawk grunted.
“So we sat down. He gave me
the ‘What do you do for a living’ and ‘How’d you meet my daughter’ gig. I
answered. All was good. Then I told him I couldn’t have him upsetting Hattie
like he did by calling her a whore. He tried to explain it by saying he was in
a bad mood. I told him, in future, if he was in a bad mood, he needed not to
take that out on Hattie.”
“On your first meeting,” Hawk
noted.
“On our first meeting,” Axl
confirmed.
“Which happened…what? How long
have you been seeing her? A few days?”
“Yep.”
“You laid down the law with
your woman’s father the first time you met him after you’ve been with her a few
days,” Hawk laid it out.
“Yep.”
“Christ, Axe, you don’t fuck
around,” Hawk muttered.
