Blurb
Nate Reynolds is everything I shouldn’t want. Aside from being my best friend’s older brother, he’s a cocky, smooth-talking, panty-dropping playboy of a cop. And yet, I’m helplessly drawn to him.
His charm and good looks reduce me to a fumbling, mumbling teenaged version of myself, which pretty much guarantees that nothing will ever come of my silly crush.
Until the night of my best friend’s wedding.
Jenny Jones is the definition of innocence. She’s also my little sister’s best friend, making her
completely off limits. She’s a forever kind of girl with hearts in her eyes, where I’ve always been more of a love ‘em and leave ‘em kind of guy.
Until a night spent between the sheets with her has me questioning everything I thought I wanted.
I tried my hardest to stay away, but you know what they say about the best intentions …
Excerpt
With the very tips of my fingers, I drag them down her arm to her elbow. I wrap my hand around her and pull her impossibly closer. Her head nestles against my chest as we sway to the music.
I keep her on the dance floor for at least four songs, unwilling to let her go. Thank God, they were all slow, because I don’t think I’m ready to really feel her move. Even now, with us merely rocking back and forth, her body feels so damn good pressed up against mine—and don’t even get me started on the way she occasionally presses her nails into my chest.
On song five, my luck runs out. The bass thumps low as she spins and presses her back into my front. Jenny may struggle to talk around me, but her body is saying all the things her words don’t. She swivels her hips as the tempo climbs, and the semi I’ve been sporting is in real danger of rivaling the damn tent the reception is being held in.
Seemingly unaware of my mental—and physical—struggle, Jenny keeps right on grinding her ass into me. Deciding to go with it, I palm her hips and move with her. My rhythm isn’t quite as good as hers, but we’re in sync enough for me to know we would be on-fucking-fire if we were doing this dance between the sheets instead.
Right, because that’s what I need to be thinking about right now.
REVIEW
Review by: Jennifer
(4 Stars)
So this could be read as a stand alone, but I'm a bit OCD and seeing as we meet the main characters in Best Laid Plains, I would say read that first as you get a gist of who everyone is and what not. This starts out with Jenny and Nate at Natalie and Alden's wedding (couple from Best Laid Plans). Nate, knowing that Jenny is his sister's best friend, he makes it so she is off limits, but can't resist the temptation and the two end up leaving the reception early. What starts out as a very fun night, slowly turns into something a bit deeper, so Nate cuts out as he knows he is not the man for Jenny. Of course the next morning Jenny is bummed when Nate isn't there, but he was very clear where he stood on relationships. But Nate can't get Jenny out of his head, even though he is the one that made sure it was just NSA fun. So when Nate goes to Jenny and decides to try for a friends without benefits type of relationship, she agrees. Can two people who are very attracted to each other, have a relationship without sex? What happens when Nate realizes that he wants more from Jenny? Will he try or is he too scared of the what ifs?
This was a really good story. With some drama, some naughty bits that were super steamy, and a few really heavy moments. I give this 4 stars.
