The Two of Us Anthology consists of two stories, each stands on its own, although they both involve rescue animals. They are The Odd Couple by Lori Foster and Force of Nature by Maisey Yates. Do note that the characters in Ms Foster's story are tied to two of her series.
Ford Caruso had gotten the message from his neighbor Skye Fairchild. Although he was attracted to her, and would be interested in something more, Skye was only interested in being cautionary neighbors. Not close, but vaguely friendly. That was fine, her choice, and he was willing to abide by her choices.
So he was caught quite off-guard when some friends were over and she asked if any of them were single. He was intrigued enough by her unexpected question to want to help, but when he learned it was to deter an unwanted persistent former male friend, Ford, and even his married friends, were willing to help. But only Ford was needed for the brief exchange. Then next thing they knew, he was helping her look at dogs at the shelter.
Suddenly they were becoming friends and sharing more of their lives, family and friends. And in the chaos that was their lives, they begin to see how great a future together could be.
The Odd Couple is a fun romance with two headstrong individuals. It was fun watching them at the shelter and the decision that they made together. Skye is a strong independent heroine whose heart is wide open for her sister Laylee, friends and animals. I loved to see the relationship between those two and how they supported one another. Ford was a strong dependable hero able to step in, or back, as necessary. It was fun watching them navigate their lives and finding their happily ever after. This story is linked to the other series through friendships and mentions of previous events, but does stand on its own.
