Recommendation
Oh. My. Jax. So hot. I fell in love with him immediately. It took me a little longer to warm up to KC; I was still annoyed with her behavior in the previous books. Their sexual tension was off the charts. They were constantly either fighting or all over each other, and KC’s hot/cold attitude toward him was annoying. But we learn a lot about KC and why she is the way she is. We get all the feels in this book. It’s sad, funny, sexy and Jax has a gorgeously dirty mouth on him. [January 2015]
Publisher synopsis
Jaxon is the guy she’s supposed to avoid. K.C. is the girl he won’t let get away….
K. C. Carter has always followed the rules—until this year, when a mistake leaves her the talk of her college campus and her carefully arranged life comes crashing to a halt. Now she’s stuck in her small hometown for the summer to complete her court-ordered community service, and to make matters worse, trouble is living right next door.
Jaxon Trent is the worst kind of temptation and exactly what K.C. was supposed to stay away from in high school. But he never forgot her. She was the one girl who wouldn’t give him the time of day and the only one to ever say no. Fate has brought K.C. back into his life—except what he thought was a great twist of luck turns out to be too close for comfort. As they grow closer, he discovers that convincing K.C. to get out from her mother’s shadow is hard, but revealing the darkest parts of his soul is nearly impossible.…
