Made For You (The Best Mistake)

by Lauren Layne

Three years ago, Brynn Dalton made a rare error in judgment and had a one-night stand with the one man she swore would never get into her designer panties. Will Thatcher was exactly the type of sexy playboy that good girls like Brynn stayed away from and when Will moved across the country just days after their fling, Brynn vowed to put him behind her, even as the memories haunt her.

Now Will Thatcher is back and just in time to see Brynn's perfectly structured life begin to crumble. Her job is dull, her social life is tedious and Brynn's perfect cardiologist boyfriend doesn't seem to be in any hurry to get to Tiffany & Co. More than ever, Brynn needs her childhood nemesis to keep his distance.

But Will isn't content to be Brynn's dirty little secret any longer. This time, he's out to show Brynn Dalton that the imperfect man might just be the best mistake of her life.

I enjoyed my emotional ride while reading MADE FOR YOU. I say "emotional" because there were parts that they were a bit painful to read—when I had finished, I felt a dull ache in my chest—even with the happy ending.

What I liked about MADE FOR YOU was the truthfulness it had, even though it hurt to read about. What I mean by this is that Will would be hurtful with his words most of the time and it actually hurt me to read about it, hence the dull ache I mentioned before. Will is a very determined and strong-willed character. While he knows what he wants, he still has trouble with handling the situation, in this case the situation is Brynn.

Brynn and Will have an extremely rocky past. Their bickering is not normal—the reader can feel the hate while reading. Will left without a trace for years until he decided to come back and win Brynn over. Will was the first to really add fuel to the fire, which he shouldn't have because he really hurt Brynn and ended up pushing her away entirely. When he comes back to win her over, she thinks it's all just for sex. You see, Brynn is as clueless as they come. She is completely blind! She has Will wrapped around her tiny finger and she doesn't even realize until...pretty much almost the end of the story, which sucked to be honest, but the romance was there and it was slowly building up.

It was very fun to read about Brynn's self-discovery. She's this uptight, classy person and even when she tries to let loose...let's just say she only does a bit of it. With Will's help she learns how to find herself again and how to let go of the past and start anew. While the bickering was hurtful, they did have fun time a couple of times when they weren't going for each other's throats. They knew about their own sexual frustration so they would slightly tease one another to see who would give in first.
All in all, my experience was gratifying. I enjoyed reading this story a lot more than I thought I would. Will's character is my favorite one of all. And even though Brynn's character would frustrate me at times, I enjoyed reading about her when she started leading her true inner self out.
