Darcy Stone has the hots for A.J. Colten, and he has the hots for her too, yet they’re both not willing to act on their feelings. Darcy acted on her feelings and A.J. rejected her, because he didn’t want to be hurt again.
I really liked Darcy and A.J. they have amazing chemistry and the way that Darcy was so easy going and nice to everyone and then would snipe at A.J., that made me smile. It was pretty obvious to everyone around them that they were meant to be together even if they don’t see it themselves.
This is also a story of Darcy finally coming to terms with her accident, and all that came after it. There were a few misunderstandings between the two, and at times I wanted to yell at both of them to just talk to each other instead of assuming things. I also adored that Darcy was so passionate about rescuing dogs and pairing them with wounded soldiers, even if those soldiers were just as cranky as she could be at times. She just persevered, and I loved that.
When these two finally come together, their passion explodes off the page, and I enjoyed every moment of them finally admitting their love for each other. Overall, this another strong showing from Ms. Shalvis and I look forward to more Animal Magnetism books in the future.
