Jealousy is a perfect name for this book.... Remorse and denial would work also! Since that seems to be the theme throughout. This is the second book in the From The Inside Out Series. We get more Jules, Austin and Dylan. It's an epic love triangle. That will have your stomach in knots. Your heart and mind will be flip flopping back and forth....

It's an epic love triangle. That will have your stomach in knots. Your heart and mind will be flip flopping back and forth....

Poor Jules the unthinkable had happened causing her heart and mind to battle... What would you do if the love of your life, the man who ripped your heart out, came crashing back in to your world??? At the worst time, when you are just starting a new relationship with a wonderful man.... YOU WOULD FREAK!!!! (That's what I did as I read!)
From the beginning till the end, I was utterly confused and torn between Austin and Dylan. Two men determined to win Jules heart. Austin is her current boyfriend but she is in complete denial with her feelings for Dylan. She thinks he is the past and Austin is her future. But how can she look to the future, when she hasn't let go of her past?? When her heart belongs to the other person....

I was Team Austin till I read this book. I soooo wanted to hate Dylan but it was nearly impossible with him acting like a love sick puppy. He was so remorseful and sincere. I would hate to be in Jules' shoes trying gravely to be strong! But how can she stay true to her resolve when Dylan is finally telling her everything, she always wanted to hear?? Can she forgive him and believe his words???

If she could just forget Dylan and go off into the sunset with Austin. Her life would be so much easier. On paper Austin is the better man. He is a much safer choice. He's patient and loving. He wants to take their relationship to the next level. She knows she can have a good life with him.....What is a girl to do??

In Jealousy you get to see a different side to Dylan. He really opens up. The dual POVs is excellent and gives you both sides of their story. Therefore you begin to sympathize with Dylan and see his true intentions. It all comes down to forgiveness....

How many of us would be strong enough to walk away?

For the next book, I love that we get to choose our ending with the guy of our choice. I haven't fully committed to my team yet ...Team Austin or Team Dylan.... But I'm left needing to read more from Dylan first. He really tugged at my heart.......looking forward to more!!! ...more

This Series just gets Better!!!
Can I be #TeamMole??? After book one, I was #TeamAustin, not going to lie!! But as we learn more about the story of Dylan, I'm being swayed toward #TeamDylan.... S.L. Scott is SERIOUSLY so darn good at this writing stuff...she must make this a career!! In Jealousy, we are introduced to more of the history between Dylan and Jules yet we still are able to watch the love blossom between Austin and Jules!!! But it isn't that easy...NOOOOOOOOO!! S.L. never would make it ...more

Jealousy is the second part of the Inside Out series, and we pick up with Dylan having returned and trying to make amends for his past mistake, and with Jules having entered into a relationship with the gorgeous and wonderful Austin. Jealousy was a great second part to the series because we get to see the push and pull between Dylan and Jules, as well as the fire that still burns brightly between the two of them, and we also get to see the progression of Jules and Austin's relationship, and the ...more

She has been separated from Dylan for three years and she finally feels like she can move on. So she thought… After a chance meeting at a restaurant, the past three years have vanished and she’s left reliving the heartbreak and devastation all over again. Little does she know that she is Dylan’s biggest regret. Leaving her was the biggest mistaken of his life. So know we start in Jealousy… Sometimes a little jealousy is needed to open your eyes again. The story of Juliette and Dylan continues to be told in dual POV and is a serial novella. These are quickly becoming my favorite things to read because the story develops quickly and we normally don’t have to wait months for the next one.

Dylan gave up everything he loved for what he thought was passion and money. He thought we was doing the right thing. He was blinded by money and power and now lives with those regrets. Being at the top of your game is not everything with the one person you loved isn’t there to share it. With he was with Jules, they had both just graduated college and starting on the bottom of the professions. He saw a way to make it big and took it. He quickly learns that money doesn’t always buy happiness.

“It’s ironic, I gave up Juliette for my career three years ago and now I’m willing to sacrifice my career to get her back,”

Jules is finally getting on her with life. She has a successful career, and now she is opening her heart to love again. When successful businessman and art coinsurer has propositioned her in the past, she has always turned him down now she is ready. Her and Austin’s relationship is slowly blossoming but when he takes her for dinner for her birthday and announces a business associate would be joining them so he could sign documents, the last person she expected was Dylan. Seeing her with someone else ignites something in Dylan and he knows he must do what he can to make things with Jules. He is willing to do anything to be close to her.

Has the time passed on Dylan and Jules relationship? Does her heart belong solely to Austin? What happens when Austin discovers Dylan is the one who shattered Jules heart?? The ending had me on edge and now I know two books are coming out, Austin’s book and Dylan’s book, I will be patiently waiting until September 28th to see how it all plays out! I am normally clear cut on what team I am when it comes to triangles but right now I so torn as where I want Jules to go!!! Austin gives her stability and loves her for her. He sees the true beauty inside of her.

“I’ve been ruined for years. Austin is an incredible and patient man that wants me even with all my baggage and damaged insides.”

Dylan is her first love, even though he broke her heart, the spark they once had is still there and now he is willing to lay the world at her feet.

“My feelings. My memories- good and bad anchor me to him like a weight.”

Who to choose… who to choose!!!! You need to read to see what team you will be on!
