Review
“Jack had left a month ago. Actually, it was four weeks and three endless days ago, and no matter how many times I was told it would get easier, it still hurt to breathe past the pain.”
Anxiety . . . Love triangles give me so much anxiety! I was so nervous the whole time reading it! But I have to say it was fabulous! As much as I loved Jack in Yours Tonight he broke my heart, and much like Lana Cal helped put it back together.
“Cal was the epitome of fun, but he was also hard to be around. Because every time I looked at him, my mind wondered about things it shouldn’t.”
Lena’s world is crashing around her. The man she was in love didn’t fight for her and left and the step-brother who has made her life hell is tormenting her. Only one man can make her forget her problems and get lost in the moment. But while Cal makes everything better he also makes it so much more complicated too! When you fall in love with the best friend of the man you thought you could love forever life will never be simple or easy.
“What do you see when you look at me?” “I see my next mistake.”
As I stated in the beginning of this review I have a hard time with love triangles and while this series is one it also isn’t. There is no cheating and no crossover in the stories really. Each man has their own book and their own time to prove their worth but that being said until I finish the series and know how it all ends my nerves for these fictional characters will be out of control. I love them and this explosive situation they have found themselves in.
“Kitten,”
Kitten. That word alone would make any woman’s panties drop. Cal was all man and oozed sex. He got me excited and all kinds of hot and bothered. The sex scenes were both intense and at times fun. Cal for all his jovial tendencies really turns into a lust inducing alpha in the bedroom and I for one am all for it!
“I want to not want you the way I do.”
Joya Ryan has writing a captivating and dynamic story that leaves you wanting more and desperate to the end. While this has been my first series from this author I can guarantee it will not be my last!
