My
Review:
I enjoy
the stories of friends becoming more and this was a really great
incarnation of it. Hayden is getting ready to leave on a trip for
her dream job and wants one night of sex before she leaves to prove
she's moved on from her ex. Jace has been her best friend for years,
but hasn't spoken to her in two weeks (since she announced she's
leaving).
Hayden
goes to Jace's bar to let loose and pick up a guy, but Jace gets
overprotective and keeps the guys away. One thing leads to another
and Jace and Hayden get it on and find that they've both been pining
for the other.
I was
surprised how many times the f-word was used in this book. Seeing
that the whole book covers about 18 hours worth of time and most of
that time involves something sexual happening, I expected the
explicit sex scenes. But after the fourth or fifth f-word, I started
noticing more and just feeling surprised because I so rarely hear it
said in normal conversation or read in romance novels. The book is
so short that I don't feel I knew the hero's character enough to say
if he was the type that just generally uses that word in everyday
conversation. I didn't notice many other swear words - just this
one. So if this is something that bothers you, it's probably not the
book for you.
For me,
this was a perfect story to spend an afternoon with. I'll keep an
eye out for this author's next book.
