Dax & Addison: I loved them from the start! 5 Stars!

Another hit from Suzanne Wright! This book was fantastic!

In THE PACT, we meet Addison (Addie). A savvy businesswoman who owns her own event planning business. Addison comes from a very wealthy family, but she doesn't let it define who she is. In the past, her wealth has been an issue with the men she's dated. Just when she finally thought she had found her HEA, her fiancé passed away and her latest attempt at a relationship ended when her boyfriend returned to his ex-wife. (Boo!)

Addie finds herself still single. She yearns to have a husband and family of her own and the older she gets, the more she feels her dream moving further and further away from her grasp. One fine day, she is contacted by her old flame, the drop-dead sexy, morally gray Daxton Mercier (Dax), a past paramour whom she experienced her first time as well as many other wonderful "firsts". After amicably parting due to Addie's desire to have a family, Dax finds himself ready to commit to a marriage and wants his bride to be Addie. His reasoning? A pact they once made: if they were both single by the time Addie reached 30years of age, they would marry. Dax expects Addie to keep her word and honor the pact.

This was such a fun, spicy read featuring two strong, very likeable characters. We see Dax and Addie transition from a casual fling to close friends to lovers and we readers are fortunate to ride along shotgun for their sensual journey. This was one of the best grumpy/sunshine books I've read in such a long time! I wish it were longer!

The secondary characters were so rich and well-developed, I hope that there will be more wonderful books born from this book. Wonderful read!

Happy reading!
