DiDi’s Review – I’d Rather Not (KPD Motorcycle Patrol #3) by Lani Lynn Vale

Oakley Spurlock is dying.

She only has weeks to live thanks to a freak infection that totally and completely destroyed her kidneys.

Despite her family’s desperation, not a single one of them is a match.

In a last-ditch attempt, Oakley’s father takes to social media to beg for help to save his daughter’s life.
***

Pace Vineyard is lost. So lost, in fact, that he’s not sure he wants to be found.

But then a beautiful woman’s face is splashed across social media, and Pace finds a spark in his soul for the first time since a bomb went off beside him.

He’s already missing two legs. What’s one more kidney?

At least, that’s what he tells himself.

What he doesn’t expect is to give his heart to the woman, too. Or for the woman to run away with it and force him to follow.

“Oakley Spurlock is dying. “

When an author I love and trust starts a blurb out like that it simultaneously catches my attention and makes my stomach drop.  I was slightly scared to start I’D RATHER NOT but I’m so glad I went on this amazingly emotional, sweet and sexy journey with Pace and Oakley.

I’D RATHER NOT is about a lost man finding a dying girl, about fate, family and friendship. It’s about loving someone more than you love yourself. Most importantly it’s about HOPE and LOVE!

In almost every Lani Lynn Vale book I enjoy the humor and the connections between everyone in the story.  The same goes for I’D RATHER NOT however I really enjoyed the conversations between Oakley and Pace they had honesty and trust between them from the get go.  The sexual side of their relationship was a slow build and it perfectly fit them, but once they got there, woooweeee! Hot, hot, hot, I loved their sex talk as much as I did their day to day talk.

I’D RATHER NOT is part of a series but can be read as a standalone.

4.5 stars
