Jill Shalvis did a great job of bringing these two together. Of course there were times when I wanted to smack them both upside their heads but for the most part, I adored seeing them fumble their way to that happy ending. It was Leah, more than Jack that made me want to smack her because there were times when I just couldn’t understand where she was coming from with the things that she thought and the insecurities she had. But everything works out the way that they’re supposed to and I enjoyed being along for the ride.
Jack was one smoking hot stud. You could see what the ladies saw in him and his hero complex was swoonworthy. I adored the way that he was with Leah, the way that he was with Leah’s grandmother and with his own mother. He was such an all around sexy good guy that I wanted to hold him close and never let go. Toward the end when he’s got the bad guy up against the wall, choking him out? I nearly swooned with delight. He was everything that I love in a man and everything that I love reading about in my books.
I’m really looking forward to reading Ben and Aubrey’s book. I adored the way that Ben and Jack were in this book and I’m looking forward to seeing more of the same in the next book. I really like that Aubrey is going to open up the bookstore and that she’s become such good friends with both Leah and Ali. I’m really looking forward to seeing what fireworks spark up between Ben and Aubrey. I just know that it’s going to be good.
This was another great contemporary read by Shalvis and if you’ve read and loved her other books then I have every faith that you’ll love this one too.
