Recommendation
I am so excited for this series! Laiyla, KT and Chloe’s friendship promises some amazing, well rounded stories depicting long lost love and a deep, strong friendship. In Too Deep follows Laiyla and her ex Levi. The connection between them is intense and in a split second, the years that have passed since they were last together are a distant memory. Levi’s heart is still hidden behind the walls he put up after Laiyla left him and the journey to reconciliation is filled with tedious, small steps and a whole lot of steamy, passion. The scene on the boat… DAMN! Skye Jordan leaves very little to the imagination and that is just how I like it!
Excerpts
I press my face to the hollow between her head and shoulder, kiss her neck. And I know I can’t stop. Not of my own accord. I need her. I need her too much. I know it. And I know that makes me vulnerable. I know I’m probably going to get my heart pulled out through my throat before this is over. But there is just no substitute for Laiyla.
She’s so responsive, so hungry. And, damn, it’s a fucking turn-on. This is a play right out of my fantasy playbook, fingering her until she begs for release. The idea of hearing her beg lights a fiery need inside me, and I soften my touch, less demand, more tease. She groans and lifts her hips into my hand. It’s a total rush, I can’t lie.
Without warning, he hooks his free arm around me and pulls me up against him, kissing me long and deep. “I forgot how good you are with your mouth.”
“Well, now you’ve got all night to remember.”
Publisher synopsis
A fresh and sexy new series from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Skye Jordan
I’ve got one hell of a life–the business of my dreams, a close-knit family, and the title of elusive but most-eligible bachelor in town.
The only thing I’m missing now is my heart. I gave it away as a teenager and never got it back.
I didn't think I’d see that girl again. She was my best friend, my first love, the person I couldn’t wait to see arrive in June and couldn’t stand to see leave in September. But the summer she turned eighteen, she flew off to Paris and never looked back.
When she resurfaces twelve years later, I don’t want to want her. I don’t even want to care. I really just want my fucking heart back so I can move on with a normal life–marriage, kids. Hell, I’d settle for a cease-fire in my romantic life.
It turns out we’ve got a shared interest in her grandfather’s land. This could be the perfect opportunity to settle the past. Or it could be the biggest mistake of my life, the one that destroys my heart for good.
Books in the Wildfire Lake series can be read as stand alone novels.
