This book was right up my alley! Mafia hotties, cool cars, lots of secondary characters so you know they will get their own books! I really liked Emily as a character. She was broken, but it came across as very real. She moved to TN to get away from her problems (why don't more characters in books do this?!? This seems to make the most sense to me!) and of course, they follow her. Tate is AMAZING. He is a bit of an alpha-hole in the beginning but he doesn't stay that way for long. He worships Emily and it is so sweet.
So, why not 5 stars? It was close, really. I mean, I stayed up all night to read it in one sitting so I was totally caught up in the story. However, sometimes, it was the writing that felt stilted to me. Phrases seemed off or hokey. It was enough to notice, but it didn't really detract from my enjoyment of reading the book. Honestly, it might not even bother other people! (I am kind of weird about things). Oh, and this was the 2nd book in a row I have read that used the word 'juices' during a sex scene. That makes me cringe as much as the word 'moist' does for other people. Again, thats a personal thing and it might not bother you!
