Nate is sexy...can I leave it at that? Cuz that's the best part :D:D When he rolls his sleeves up and we first get an inkling of the bad boy behind the suit...

I'm going to make is short n sweet...err, maybe not so sweet. I still had some big hangups with this book, mostly similar to my feelings for the first book. Though I did like this one better, I think I'm likely done with this series. The author's writing and I don't get along.

I have sexual hangups in a major way in regards to this book. I mean, I can't even label this erotic romance, which I guess is what I thought I was getting. This is just contemporary romance with a ton of sex scenes, none of them very explicit. How erotic can you get in a couple of paragraphs? Now, my grump about this could possibly be all my fault due to my preconceived notions. There are TOO MANY SHORT SEX SCENES. I hate to say this, but SOMETIMES it's okay to fade to black, or simply allude to a quickie boink than to go ahead and spell it out in two paragraphs. Seriously...same as book one, most of these sex scenes were over and done...foreplay to the five pump chump finish...in less than a page to a page and a half. What's the point, I ask? I wasn't turned on...okay, I admit to ONE smexy times that got to me. But the rest...nah. Pretty bland.

One thing that so far seems to be the norm for this author is how quickly her protagonists get together. By page forty, they were "in a relationship". So there was a TON of opportunity and page time for them to engage int the multitudes of one page sex. This also left ample opportunity for them to fight and make up, break up and make up, piss each other off and make up...you get the idea.

Now, I did like this book better than book one. Nate is a great guy, seriously. He's a little possessive (which I love), he's a LOT sexy...tattoos and business suits...YUMMMMMM!!!

This is an angsty series. If you like angst and drama, you'll love this series. Most of my friends do. But it's not for me and I'll bow out now, and leave it to the lovers!! ...more

4 Knockout Stars

I loved Nate and Jules' story. Although I find it kind of implausible that a guy as hot and together as Nate, would go through all her hoops just to make sure she knew he was interested, I like to think that its possible and I loved the read.

Nate, well what can I say but *Sigh!*. He was just dreamy. He was a businessman, but someone with a darker side who could protect Jules, though she didn't really need him for that. My favorite part of the book was when she told him to knock ...more

Color me surprised. I didn't love the first book in this series, and I was prepared for this to be a "meh" read for me, I couldn't have been more wrong. I just loved Jules and Nate. What a great couple. They truly seemed made for each other. There are so many books were beyond the chemistry, it's hard to see how the hero and heroine fit together. This was not the case here. Now don't get me wrong, Nate and Jules have some serious chemistry. They rock the bedroom(and kitchen, and shower, and moto ...more

I heart Kristen Proby and her Come Away with Me Series. After reading the first book I wasn't sure if I would be able to connect with these characters but I think I ended up falling in love with them even more than book 1. Can not wait for more!!! ...more

I loved this book. It was great! Jules and Nate are amazing main characters. Love how much Natalie and Luke were in this story that made it even better. This is more like a 4.75 stars for me only because I wish there was a little yes sex and a little more relationship development. But the book in a whole was amazing!
