Terri's Thoughts
**I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. The expected publication date is December 22nd**
This is the second story I have read by Jace after reading Hot as Blazes earlier this year. Based on her previous work and the description of this story I thought that this would be exactly what I needed for a quick read that was not going to take up to much of a time commitment. This story delivered.
It is tough to give your thoughts on a story this length without divulging too much information. It essentially delivers exactly what you expect when you pick up a book with a shirtless man. Ask my sister what my thoughts are on shirtless men on the covers of books and she will laugh. I usually avoid for no reason that I can really explain. That being said, you pretty much know you are going to get a romance where there are a multitude of scenes that are steamier than the sauna room at your local gym. While this theory hasn't been widely tested I am sure I am mostly accurate.
You also know that the main characters are going to be likeable, physically attractive and have some type of conflict that prevents them from making a long term commitment to each other. This book had all of them.
While yes this story sticks to the predictable formula one expects, it is all in how much fun you have on the journey. In this case I was highly entertained and got exactly what I wanted.
