Colton From the moment she showed up on my doorstep, I knew our lives would never be the same. I felt it deep in my soul that she was going to change us forever. I didn’t know how, but I knew she was important. I tried to maintain the distance between us, but it was too strong to fight. With each passing day, I saw a future I never planned flash before my eyes—one with a fairytale ending. The only problem is that someone wanted to take that away from me, away from us. I just found her, and no way am I letting her go that easily. Hollis is family, my family, and I’ll do whatever it takes to protect her. Hollis Colton Callahan wasn’t what I expected. I was in desperate need of a fresh start, ready for something new, but all it took was one look at those intoxicating blue eyes for me to reevaluate everything. I tried to stay detached, but something about him just called to me. It took no time at all for me to fall. Not only for the man I share a living space with, but also his son, Milo. The problem is my past is not too far behind, trailing behind me and slowly catching up. When it finally does, I have a choice to make—run away, leaving them behind, or stay and fight, potentially putting them in danger. Either way, I could lose it all.

I have been dying to get my hands on this story since discovering Colton and everything that happened within the second book in this series. Ryan and Black did not disappoint with his story. It was so romantic and sweet but also alpha with an interesting twist that has an unexpected ending. Honestly, I was surprised with how things played out in the long run.
Colton, being thrown into daddy mode, is doing the best he can. He is definitely the hot dad. And the roommate is unexpected because Hollis was not what he thought. I giggled at moments, I swooned and I wanted to cry with them as their passion for each other is so intense but what Hollis is hiding could potentially destroy it all. As the story flows, you honestly cannot put it down. I devoured it in one sitting. It was just that good.
Overall, if you haven’t read the first two books, I recommend it because they are interconnected and will give you the bigger picture of this series. This installment was utterly perfect and I loved every moment of it. I adore stories of love when you least expect it!

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. I liked the characters.. Ave the premise of the book. It had a little bit of satisfier l suspense, but not too much. One thing that I don't enjoy too often is insta-love stories. Sometimes they are good and sometimes they are not. This one was acceptable. It's a good read. 3.5-4 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY...😍

What a beautiful love story.....SIGH! It had everything. Colton and Milo touched my heart. Colton was such a kind and sensitive man. The descriptions of how he was with Milo were so heartwarming. Hollis and Colton clicked right away and their love story was sweet, sizzling and tender. I loved this book. It has a sense of just how a perfect romance should be with absolute believability!!! All the characters are interesting, supportive and there for each other. There was a lot of cute banter between the friends that made me laugh! A little bit of mystery was woven throughout the book. There was only a small bit of angst which I like... Too many books depend on chapter after chapter of angst to fill pages..... I find that boring. I was grateful for the very satisfying epilogues which I really love. Thanks Kaylee and Lacey for them! You guys rock! I highly recommend this book... If you want to be immersed in a feel good read, especially at this time of chaos and stress, give this book a chance you won't be sorry!! 😇

5.0 out of 5 stars Colton and Hollis!

Colton has spent the last decade serving in the military but when he finds out in the most unorthodox way that he is a single father life as he knows it is about to change. He has now left the military in his past and is building a new future for him and his son. When he decides to rent out a suite in his new home the surprise was on him when his roommate turned out to be female.

Hollis needed to escape the life she was living and where better than the town that help many happy memories for her grandmother. All she wanted was to keep a low profile but she wasn’t expecting the feelings she would develop for father and son or that her past would not only endanger their relationship but the people she had come to love as well.

Hollis and Colton were both amazing characters who seemed to adapt to whatever life threw at them both good and bad. The connection between them was unexpected yet undeniable and has you hoping that they will get the happy ever after they both deserve.

3.0 out of 5 stars Some flaws
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2020

Hollis is fleeing from her old life in California and ends up as Colton's new tenant. Colton eventually figures out that she left because she was in danger. She shares her story and the messages she's been receiving since she left and it seems like a legitimate threat. However, once the sender of those messages catches up with her, it's quite anticlimactic. In fact, it still doesn't really make sense why the messages were sent at all.

Colton has a son, Milo, who is around 4-5 months throughout the story. Some of his behavior is not age appropriate. Like he smacks his dad's face then cries when reprimanded. Then he calls Hollis "mama". That's pretty young to be saying much other than babbling.

There were a few other minor issues and I skimmed the last 15% but overall it's a decent read.

I’ve been a fan of both Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black for some time and I have loved reading this series. With some co-written books you can tell two people wrote it by their styles of writing but I felt that Kaylee and Lacey were able to write these books so seamlessly that you would think one person wrote it. I enjoyed reading the story of Colton and Hollis falling in love with one another. Single dad to adorable baby Milo meets Hollis when he rents the in law suite of his house to her. Hollis is new to town and has her secrets. Slowly as Colton and Hollis spend more time together, falling for each other they both open up to one another about their pasts. This book is full of sweet,romantic moments but also has it’s comedic moments too. Once I started this book I could not put it down. I’m so sad to see the end of this series and really hope that Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black team back up for another series.

Colton is extremely sexy add his affection and care for Milo and he is the whole package. I love how freaked out he was that Hollis was a womanthat was goint to rent his inlaw suite. Hollis was just as thrown off with how much this big guy was so attentive to his son. They become friends who have respect for one another and start to fall for each other...but can they over come Hollis's past and make it through unscathed.
It was fun to read so much more of Gabby and Chase along with some of Gwen and Harrison.

I don't WANT to fight all the FEELS that this book, Can't Fight It (Book 3 in the Fair Lakes series), gave me!!! Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black, "The Dynamic Duo" of romance, has done it yet again! I have to say that Colt and Hollis's sweet and SEXY slow-burn romance did it for me and it's my favourite book in the series, hands down!

Colt gives up his military career when he discovers he's Milo's dad. Be still my crazily-beating heart!!! A sexy-as-all-get-out single dad, determined to be the best father he can be to a sweet little baby??!! YES, PLEASE!!! So, when Hollis arrives at his door, saying SHE'S the one he accepted as a tenant in his in-law suite, he can't very well tell her she can't move in because he thought SHE was a HE!!! The chemistry between them is OFF-THE-CHARTS HOT!!! Mix in that adorable little Milo and my heart was GONE!

I loved everything about this book! You CAN read it as a standalone but I highly recommend reading these books in order, to get the FULL scope of the immense talent of these two amazing authors!!! Once you start reading, you'll be just as addicted as I am. Well done, ladies!

As soon as we met Milo in book 2 and found out he didn't belong to Chase was hoping that Colton would get a book. I loved Hollis as a character they were a fantastic couple no major twists just a book about life lust and falling in love. I thought it was another five star read

Can't Fight It is the third book in Fair Lakes Series. I thought the story was cute, full of feeling, and easy to read. Colton is so swoon worthy, single dad, alpha man, and protector. When Hollis comes into the picture the sparks start flying between these two. I liked that they took their time becoming friends before more. Hollis is starting over in a new town, she's beautiful, and has her own design business. I liked that past characters were in the story too. I've enjoyed this writing duos stories, and I hope we will get many more from them.

I really loved this story. It was so heartfelt and wholesome that I was captivated from the beginning.
I picked this book based on a TikTok and was not disappointed.
It has spice but it was pleasantly in the background rather than in your face.
