Review

Ah, my heart. These two may have won out for my favourite of the series. Such a sweet, touching, and compassionate story.

Our favourite bartender is a pretty amazing single dad to a great little girl who is going to wonders for space and dinosaurs. Bradley is sweet and loyal and crushing on the enigma of man who lives across the street from the bar, Madison.

Madison is a complicated guy, with a tender heart and a fear of not being worthy. He’s been hiding himself from pretty much everyone, but when Bradley works his way past the walls, a bright future is in reach. Which can be a scary thing.

I love the way they balance each other, and the thought and care they take with one another. And the way they come into themselves.

But also grandmas for the win!!

Synopsis

Madison Masters is everything I want to be.

He’s confident, good-looking, and beyond popular. Wherever he appears, he’s the center of attention. It’s his natural charisma that pulls every gaze to him. Mine especially.

I have been in love with Madison since the moment I met him. The only trouble is he has no clue that I exist. Sure, he shoots me a smile when I pour him a drink, winks at me like we’re in on a joke when he flirts with guys right in front of me and does unspeakable things to me when I am all alone with nothing but imagination and free time. But he doesn’t know me.

And even if he knew me, it would never work.

I’m the father of a little troublemaker, the happiest accident of my life, and Madison is…not family material. I know his secret. I know where his popularity and money come from. I know what he does in hotel rooms when cameras are on and when the show begins.

We can never be together. We are worlds apart. We’re like two pieces of vastly different puzzles.

But when Madison Masters urgently needs a nice, anonymous boyfriend for an evening, there’s no better choice than the invisible old me. And as the night of work turns into the most magical date of my life, I soon forget we’re only pretending to dance, smile, and flirt.

If only my stupid heart wouldn’t beat so fast. If only Madison weren’t so convincing. If only we didn’t follow this fantasy all the way to his hotel room.

If only he didn’t ruin everyone else for me in a single night of unrestrained passion…

Mad For Madison is the fourth and final novel in The Boys of Hudson Burrow series. It features a single dad at 24, an elusive model who’s out to become rich at all costs, and an unforgettable fake date that turns real way too fast. Return to Neon Nights one last time with Madison and Bradley’s story and get ready for your heart to melt away. While each book follows a distinct couple and can be read on its own, reading in order is recommended for maximum enjoyment.
