Always On My Mind by Jill Shalvis

Always On My Mind (Lucky Harbor, #8)

by Jill Shalvis

The eighth enchanting novel in the Lucky Harbor series from New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis, laced with her trademark gift for humour, warmth and romance. Fans of Susan Andersen, Bella Andre, Rachel Gibson, Carly Phillips, and Susan Mallery will fall head over heels for the Lucky Harbor series.

There's nothing like the real thing. After dropping out of pastry school and messing up her big break on a reality cooking show, Leah Sullivan needs to accomplish something in her life. But when she returns home to Lucky Harbor, she finds herself distracted by her best friend, Jack Harper. In an effort to cheer up Jack's ailing mother, Dee, Leah tells a little fib - that she and Jack are more than just friends. Soon pretending to be hot and heavy with this hunky firefighter feels too real to handle.

No-strings attachments suit Jack just fine; they are perfect for keeping the risk of heartbreak away. But as Jack and Leah break every one of their just-friends rules, he longs to turn their pretend relationship into something permanent. Do best friends know too much about each other to risk falling in love, or will Jack and Leah discover something new about each other in a little town called Lucky Harbor?

Want more sexy, fun romance? Return to spellbinding Lucky Harbor, visit Sunshine, Idaho for some Animal Magnetism, or take a trip to Cedar Ridge's unforgettable Colorado Mountains in Jill's other bestselling series.

I now consider myself a full-fledged Jill Shalvis fan. This is my 3rd Lucky Harbor book, and I love getting exactly what I need: a cute rom-com with plenty of heat. Every time I pick up a Lucky Harbor book, I escape into this charming town filled with nutty, but lovable characters. Once again, we get more than a romance. I like that Shalvis put a little mystery in there. This one was one of my favorite type of romances, in that the MCs shared a past. Another great Lucky Harbor book!
