Holy hell, did I love this book!!! Not that I have ever read anything by Jen that I didn't love, but still. I mean really?? #FoorWhoreForLife
This one was a doozy, no matter how short a read- it was packed full of hotness and sizzle.
Synopsis:
One woman
One man
An empty bed and breakfast
A summer storm
One night they'll never
forget - so they thought...
When my aunt passed away and
left me her dilapidated bed and breakfast it was all so surreal. I hadn't been
back to that beach in many years, and the idea of revisiting left me sad and
vulnerable.
I never planned on having
guests. In fact, I just wanted to close up the place and sell it, so that I
could move on with my life.
Then the storm happened.
Taken by surprise, I planned
on waiting for it to pass. The house creaked and the power went out. That's
when someone knocked on the door.
He was a stranger, dripping
wet, cold, and looking for shelter. I couldn't turn him away...
What happened next between us
opened new doors, changing everything I thought I wanted for myself.
The
only question is if I can trust him, or will his secrets destroy it all?
MY REVIEW FOR RIDING IT OUT:
Okay, so let me start by saying that yes, this isn't a very lengthy read- so, for those that are expecting that- please do not be disappointed. That being said, it was phenomenal. I mean, definitely one of my Foor faves. It had everything I wanted in a good romance. And the heat- holy crap, was Reed hot. I loved that he was so confident and comfortable with his sexual needs that he was able to coax Erica out of her prudish shell, and finally make her see that she was a sexual being!! She needed that, truly needed it, to be able to discover herself and finally take charge of what she really wanted out of her life.
I was worried that she would lose sight of who she really was, and where she came from, in order to continue with her "city" life. The life that didn't seem to fulfill her at all. So, I was so grateful to Reed for being the push that she needed to bring her back to her roots. Now, when all of his secrets came out, don't think that I didn't want to kick him square in the balls!! Because, I did- I SO did. But, I also found myself being able to understand why he had done the things he had- why he had lived with the secrets he did. And I think I fell for him just a tiny bit more.
Add little Shawn to the mix, and the way Reed brings him into their lives, and that's it- total puddle of mush. I couldn't help but want more of Reed and Erica. I don't know if Jennifer has anything further planned for these two, but I certainly wouldn't hold it against her if she did!! ;)
5 huge stars!!!!
