Before Jamaica Lane by Samantha Young

Before Jamaica Lane (On Dublin Street, #3)

by Samantha Young

The follow-up to the runaway bestsellers ON DUBLIN STREET and DOWN LONDON ROAD

Despite her outgoing demeanor, Olivia is painfully insecure around the opposite sex—usually, she can’t get up the nerve to approach guys she’s interested in. But moving to Edinburgh has given her a new start, and, after she develops a crush on a sexy postgrad, she decides it’s time to push past her fears and go after what she wants.

Nate Sawyer is a gorgeous player who never commits, but to his close friends, he’s as loyal as they come. So when Olivia turns to him with her relationship woes, he offers to instruct her in the art of flirting and to help her become more sexually confident.

The friendly education in seduction soon grows into an intense and hot romance. But then Nate’s past and commitment issues rear their ugly heads, and Olivia is left brokenhearted. When Nate realizes he’s made the biggest mistake of his life, he will have to work harder than he ever has before to entice his best friend into falling back in love with him—or he may lose her forever….

I'm sad to say that I think this series might be getting a bit old (which sucks because I love it).

I did mostly really like this book, although Olivia did start to annoy me quite a bit near the end, which resulted in some frustrated skimming. But other than that, I did mostly enjoy it. I think I just feel like all the books are starting to blend together. They all feel exactly the same.. you have a girl who meets a guy who's "THE ONE" and totally changes his ways for her and they help each other through traumatic pasts, then they all get engaged and/or pregnant
