Tuck and Della's characters were so right for each other in this story. Both display sweet and scorching sentiments between each other in equal measure. The mutual respect and vulnerability portrayed in the more challenging moments were transfixing. The added characters in the Credence series are a hoot. Arlo, Drew and Winona's quips are hilarious. Cannot wait for more shenanigans from this stellar series. Another spectacular story by Ms Andrews.

Della is trying to get back on the saddle after experiencing trauma. She just wants things to go back to normal and finally start dating again. Problem is that shes using Tinder for help and shes sure getting a lot more then she wanted. Now shes trying to get help from her older brothers best friend Tucker for some help as a wing man. They are both into eachother but he keeps treating her with kid gloves and its complicated with her past and his friendship status with her brother.

So while I enjoyed this book is there such a thing as too much steam? I like books with a bit of steam and sexy talk and this book was a bit too much for me. If that's something you dont mind then you'll like this book. Personally if I had known I probably would've been iffy about picking this book up. Even after that I loved the overall story and getting to know the characters. I loved seeing that attraction between Della and Tucker. I loved how supportive he was as well as those around her, helping her get past what she went though and just being there for her. Overall pretty good book I did enjoy it.

If you love small-town, mountainous, cowboy romances, this book will be a great addition to your TBR. 

This one has that quirky, humorous dialogue that just takes you away with the convenience their deal becomes. It definitely offsets the darkness that is their pasts and creates an angsty, charming story. 

Overall, it was a fun read and I recommend this if you are looking for a somewhat-best friend's sister trope with a feel-good vibe. 4 out of 5 stars.

I really love this author and this series. Asking for Trouble is about about Della, an abused wife who was rescued by her half brother, and Tucker, a hot, good looking bar owner who just happens to be Della’s half brothers best friend. Honestly, I laughed my way through about 3/4ths of this book, I absolutely loved it. The fact that Tucker tried with all his might to deny his feelings for Della, while Della was pulling out all the stops to have her way with him made for some really hysterical scenes. The seniors at the home just put me over the edge! This author knows how to write some steamy love scenes, they were off the chart, and I loved every minute of it. Very well written, and worth the read. I cannot wait for the next installment.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC copy of this book.

ARC for honest review with no compensation received from NetGalley 4.5 stars

Asking for Trouble is book 3 in the Credence, Colorado series by Amy Andrews and a great addition.

Della Monroe, abused wife, rescued by her half brother Arlo who brings her back to Credence. After 3 years of therapy, dealing with the abuse from her former life she feels she’s brave enough to start dating...maybe...

Tucker Daniels, best friend of Arlo, bar owner and has watched Della navigate her life but when she thinks about dating...she wants Tucker to be her wingman and help her navigate the ins and outs.

What happens next is...secret crush, off limits bro code, wingman, hidden feelings, laughter, sexy times and finding their HEA...

4⭐️

This is the third book from the Credence, Colorado series by Ms. Amy Andrews. This is Della and Tucker's story. The blurb got me hooked that's why I signed up to read and review this one.

This started very slow for me and didn't get exciting until the about 60% in. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a huge fan of insta-love but I'm also not a fan of a quite drawn out love journey either—and I feel like this one is. I feel like if some of the entries are cut, this would have been a very exciting read. But it's probably just me...

All in all, I did enjoy it. It's like something out of a Hallmark movie. It has a wee bit of angst but it's also sweet and sexy.

Like Amy Andrews other Trouble novels, Asking for Trouble is a sexy romp that touches on some difficult subjects. Della returns to Credence after her brother Arlo rescues her from her abusive marriage. With three years of therapy under her belt, she finally feels that she's ready to date, but the only man who interests her is her brother's best friend Tucker...but he's pulls the bro card and is hands off. She resorts to Tinder and he becomes her "wingman", teaching her the ropes of dating, but what he really wants is her.

Tucker knows what Della has been through and just wants to protect her from idiots and abusers. He does all the right things, supporting her, answering her questions, waiting for her after dates...but he can't answer he biggest question...why not him?

Thank you to the author, Entangled Publishing, LLC and NetGalley for an ARC of this enjoyable novel in exchange for my honest opinion.

Della Munroe was rescued from a disastrous marriage by her brother Arlo, she is eternally grateful to him but has moved on enough to want to spread her wings without his interference. Arlo can’t forget the woman he rescued and finds it hard to see her try dating, especially using Tinder, so is grateful to his best friend Tucker who is reluctantly helping Della navigate the shark infested waters of dating. Unfortunately Tucker has a thing for Della, but knows he’s not good enough for her, watching her test the waters is killing him and when Della asks for his help for more than the driving lessons he finds it difficult to refuse. Highly enjoyable slow burner, the want and need scorch through the pages. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Asking for Trouble!

Della has moved to Credence after her brother Arlo rescued her from her very abusive husband. He then fell down stair in prison and passed away. Now Della is ready to experience so much of life that she felt robbed of by her father, then husband. She decides Tinder is the best way to dip her toe in the dating pool. (Really? Pick one of the worst apps to find guys who really only want one thing!). After a bad first date, she decides Tucker (whom she’s had a crush on) her brother’s friend is perfect to help her navigate all the Tinder prospects. He knows her history, and he’s been her support as she grows following her nightmare. He is also 11 years her senior and feels drawn to Della, but he knows Arlo will not be happy with Tucker and Della becoming an item behind his back! But Della needs help learning all about sexuality since she missed all of that growing up and marrying young. Tucker and Della fall in love while he “helps” her, but they had agreed to keep their activities secret and walk away later while remaining friends!

I really enjoyed all the extra characters in this book. Rosemary and Ray are hilarious, while I expect to see a book about erotic novelist Winona very soon! And Della’s best friends are such great support! And the best, Betty!! You’ll have to read this book to find out how they all fit into the story!

I received a complimentary copy of this book and I am voluntarily reviewing it.

I loved reading this book. There were some hilariously funny sections that I just had to close the e-reader down so I could finish laughing. I so loved reading Della and Tucker's story. Della had a tragic childhood and escaping her father led to further tragedy. She has been living with her new-found brother, Arlo. Arlo is the sheriff and lives in Credence, CO. (Oh how I would love to live in this town!!!!) After three years of living with Arlo and bi-monthly therapy sessions in Denver, Della is ready to get her groove back. She has developed a crush on Tucker, the hot bartender/owner of the local bar. After the abuse that she has suffered, she only wants a temporary relationship as she figures that she is too broken for marriage and children.

Tucker is a childhood friend of Arlo's. Tucker knows some of the details of Della's life and has been a good friend to her. He also has developed feelings for Della but with her past and being her brother's best friend, Della is off-limits.

I just became so absorbed into the story and Della's "coming" out of her shell, that the pages just flew by (except for some scenes that again were so funny that I had to stop.)

This book is written in my favorite dual POV. That really helps me to connect with the characters. In this case, connecting with Della would have been hard if I didn't have a glimpse into her thoughts and feelings. I have not gone through what was her background so identifying with her would have been hard otherwise.

While this is a part of a series, you do not have to read the prior stories to enjoy this one. I highly recommend this for anyone over the age of 18.

Asking for Trouble by Amy Andrews is part of a series, but is a decent standalone story. I found the story interesting, confusing and a lesson in sex. Della is a young woman who has been rescued from an abusive relationship and now as she is healing, more mentally than physical, she wants to get on with her life and get back into a sexual relationship. Decision made Della must decide how and where. Living in a small town with an overprotective brother is a deterrent and the selection process is questionable. So sitting in a local bar with friends, Della chooses to ask Clay, the bartender and friend, to help. And now the fun begins, as Clay and Della grow close with her adventures in getting a date and convincing Clay to secretly help with sex lessons. The biggest problem is Della's brother Arlo who is overprotective of her and Clay's best friend. The story comes to a satisfactory conclusion. I was pleasantly surprised how the author handles the sex, is is quite descriptive but not dirty and there's a lot of it. There's a lot more than sex involved as Della has her hang ups and Clay is quite understanding and Arlo comes to understand some things about being a big brother and best friend. Enjoy.

I loved the 1st book in this series & the 2nd does not disappoint. It's everything you want in a book; relatable & sexy characters, laugh out loud in some places and very touching in others. With Della as the student & Tucker as the teacher this is a fun, sexy story that you don't want to miss.

Highly entertaining, heartwarming and emotionally thrilling journey filled with engaging charters, witty dialog, heart racing twists and undeniable passion. Really enjoyed this down home, sweetly emotional adventure.Great read from beginning to end.

I loved this book! I love the characters in this series and loved learning Della's story. She arrived in Credence damaged and fragile from her horrific marriage that ended with her husband being arrested by her brother. Her brother then made it his mission to take care of her and provide an environment that made her feel safe so she could heal. However, as Della began to heal and thrive, she set her sights on Tucker, her brother's best friend. A serious violation of the bro-code, Tucker is resolved to fighting his attraction to Della.

As their story evolves, it is both sweet and sexy, with enough depth to make it feel real. In fact, readers should be aware that, while handled with a gentle touch, the abuse Della experienced is described.

Fans of the genre will love this book. While part of a series, this is a stand alone novel. The author is on my must read authors' list.

This book was fantastic!! I have loved this series so far and Tucker and Della holds a special place in my heart. I feel for Della's situation and Tucker is an amazing man to do everything he did to help her. I loved revisiting the other couples but Della and Tucker totally stole my heart! Tucker has a permanent place in my harem!!

Steamy, funny, cleverly written with great characters. When she asks for “help” in the bedroom! OMG
This author is new to me but I must read the next book (which I hope is about Arlo and Winona)!
Della Munroe is 25yo, been living and healing in Credence, Colorado with her new-found brother Arlo who saved her from an extremely brutal and abusive marriage. Thing is, Arlo is over-protective and Della is ready to get her groove on, you know what I mean…so she signs up with Tinder but Arlo wants protection for her. Enter Tucker Daniels, 36yo owner of the local watering hole in this small town and Arlo’s BFF. What Arlo doesn’t know and Tucker doesn’t want to admit is that he has a crush on Della. But, she’s his best friend’s little sister and she’s eleven years younger than him. She would never have feelings for him. Right?!
Thus, begins the “re-education” of Della Munroe in the ways of the dating world, which becomes more :-) and in secret. Arlo doesn’t know. Many others guess it. One wants to tell…or else. What will they do? I will admit some of the events at the end were not expected. When you read what abuse Della endured, you will be furious! How Tuck gave her unconditional love will put a smile on your face.
I loved this book and it comes highly recommended. Still waiting for Arlo’s book. He’s so sweet. He deserves one. I volunteered to review an ARC of this book through Entangled/NetGalley. More than 5 Stars for sure!

Della’s escape from a painful home life led to an even more devastating marriage and divorce until she was rescued by Arlo, her brother. She has spent the last three years trying to heal and she believes that she is reading to start living again and that means allowing a man into her life.

Tucker is her brother’s best friend and he has noticed the changes that Della has undergone since her brother first brought her home. He isn’t about to let her venture into the world of dating without some guidance but after some less than stellar dates she decides that she wants Tucker to become her teacher when it comes to physical intimacy.

I really enjoyed these two together as Tucker was supportive as he understood both the effect her past had on her life but also encouraged her need for independence and watching Della gain confidence and strength was fun to see. Not only are Della and Tucker great characters but there is a great group of secondary characters that leave us wanting more stories set in this town.

Such a great and smooth read! A natural flow to the book, great timeline, not rushed, but perfect pace. Tucker was such a protector/provider in this story to Della although a bit hot/cold in parts. Fella was an admirable woman, still struggling from a horrendous past, but trying to live a "normal" life. I loved how she grew more confident, more bold, and more determined throughout this story. You cannot help but root for them as a couple because they fit so well together and Tucker simply accepts Della as she is, regardless of her flaws. The secondary characters add comedy and excitement to this book. Winona and Mrs. Forbes along with Drew and Arlo are great people with sage advice, blushingly good innuendos, and perfect moral support. Now I just need a story for Winona and Arlo.

I received this book in exchange for an honest review from the publisher through Netgalley.

Loved this small town romance from Amy Andrews.

Della Munroe and Tucker Daniels have a great journey to their happily ever after. Della is trying to bounce back after an abusive marriage, and Tucker is trying to help her find her way, and stay safe. He's caring, concerned and so support of Della as she comes into her own.

Amy Andrews' novel has well-developed main characters, solid plot and character development, great side characters, emotion and feel-good moments, and a lot of humor! Can't wait to read more.

I enjoyed every minute of this book with characters so real you feel like you know them and a story that immediately pulled me in and kept me totally involved in all that was happening and I wasn't ready to say goodbye to my book friends when I got to the end. I loved the attraction and undeniable chemistry between Della Munroe, an abuse survivor, and Tucker Daniels her older brother's best friend who owns the Lumberjack (aka Jack's) Bar in Credence, Colorado. Ms. Andrews blew me away with this emotional, funny and steamy romance that left a smile on my face and warmed my heart. "Asking for Trouble" is the perfect read for anyone who needs an escape from the stress of everyday life. Even though it is the third book in the series, I had no issues reading it as a standalone but I liked it so much I plan to read the other books. I received an advance reader copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving my review.
