BLURB
From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new forbidden, enemies-to-lovers storyโ€ฆ
ย 
It all started with an unexpected phone call.
Two years after my fiancรฉ passed away in an accident, his father died suddenly, leaving Bradโ€™s adult, special-needs brother with no one to care for him.
The next thing I knew, I was on a cross-country drive to New Hampshire where Iโ€™d be moving in to look after Scottie until I could get him into a group home.
The last thing I ever expected?
I wouldnโ€™t be taking care of him alone.
Josh Mathers, my fianceโ€™s best friendโ€”who also happened to be my sworn enemyโ€”insisted he was the better person for the job. He told me to go back to California, and I told him where he could stick that demand.
Our disdain for each other wasnโ€™t anything new. It dated back to a text Iโ€™d accidentally read years ago.
We hated each other. But we both loved Scottie, so neither of us budged.
Now we were living together in a tiny houseโ€”with one available bedroom. Thank goodness it was only temporary.
Over time, I realized the broody jerk I thought I knew was different than Iโ€™d imagined.
I found myself slowly growing attached to someone I once considered the enemyโ€ฆand growing attracted to him.
Sure, both of us were guilt-ridden over Brad. We were also two grown people with pent-up frustration toward one anotherโ€”stuck in a cabin in the woods.
But this was Josh.
I could never.

Lita’s Book Review: 5 STARS

I Could Never by Penelope Ward. Carly goes to New Hampshire to take care of her dead fiance’s Autistic brother. What she didn’t expect was Josh to also show up to take care of Scotty as well. Yes, Josh was her fiance’s best friend and grew up with Scotty. Her relationship with Josh has always been rocky. As a matter of fact, Carly thinks Josh was a bad influence on her fiancรฉ. Josh is a known womanizer who only cares about himself. Now, both Carly and Josh decided neither one is leaving, so they both would take care of Scotty in his family home, which is a small 2 bedroom cabin in the woods. This situation was a recipe for a very entertaining story that had me laughing hysterically. This author never disappoints. I love reading her stories. It is never about the sex which by the way is always hot but it is more about the journey of two different people who for some reason are thrown together and them getting from point A to point B. Scotty because of his special needs is the star of this story. I definitely need another book so I can read more about Scotty. I don’t want to give anything away regarding the story. So just sit back and enjoy the journey. Disclaimer: Be careful not to drink anything while reading this book because I don’t want you to choke or to spit the drink out into someone face due to laughing so hard. Of course, another 5 star read. I wish I could give this story more stars.

I Could NeverI Could Never by Penelope Ward
Tanya’s rating: 5 of 5 stars

I Could Never is a standalone. I knew it was going to be a good book when I had my first laugh at about 15% of the book! This is Josh Mathers and Carly Garber story and Scottie Longo

You know you have a good book when you just LOL. People wonder what you are up to. You know itโ€™s a good book, when you become emotionally involved with the characters. You know that you are reading a good book when you start talking to the characters as if they are real people. You know that you have a good book when you start cheering for them or start crying because of a really emotional decision that you canโ€™t believe was made. Do you sense a theme here?

I love I Could Never! Scottie was so endearing! I am so glad that both Josh and Carly love him and want to protect him! Penelope Ward really knows how to develop her characters. They are complicated people that she writes about. This author had me laughing at one moment and crying in another. Again, I Love this book!!! 5 + STARS for this one and I highly recommend it!
