![Impact (Iron Orchids Book 3) by [Norman, Danielle]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51KKu2I4seL.jpg)
The synopsis gives the impression of something a little more...erotic romance?...and what we get is effing amazing. Instead of being a hot alpha dude doing a little creeper viewing on the curvy hottie with a kid in a model home we get a hot alpha dude finding his heart's home in a beautiful single mother struggling to raise her daughter with morals, safety, and love.
Katy is the world's most awesome mom. Her fire, her fierce nature, her humor, her devotion to Bee, all of it made me love her so hard. She's navigating a tricky situation but instead of putting her daughter in danger because she can't think of a better option, she breaks into a model home and lives there temporarily. But it's what she teaches her daughter as they make use of the safe home that floors me. The way she works, cleans, and educates Bee about hard work, not taking advantage or stealing, all things she could shirk because she has good reason to, and she doesn't. She breaks my heart and gives me something to aspire to as a mother.
When Damon sees her and becomes protective, enamored, and enchanted with this little family I couldn't have been more shocked or pleased. He's obviously attracted to her, but the initial attraction deepens and strengthens the more he watches them from the safety of his iPad. And when they finally meet he's even more fascinated.
Together they could be a force to be reckoned with. But it's the patience and slowness that they evolve from co-workers to friends to more that makes me believe in them. Katy is cautious to a fault at times but Damon's whole family gives her no choice but to be loved and appreciated. There's no better safe place than in their circle of love, trust, and companionship.
Going through my own difficult situation at the moment makes me yearn for a circle of friends as awesome, hilarious, and genuine as the Iron Orchids. I'm absolutely reading this whole series!! When the bad stuff goes down between them there's a whole huge heaping of overreactions and running from all that's best for them, which is kind of predictable, but it's the way they swallow their pride, apologize, grovel, and open themselves to complete honesty and love that annihilates me. There's no better romance than one that has its downs followed by unaffected, honest ups. Impact has all that and incredible passion to boot.
