5-Star Review
It has been quite a while since I read any of Julie James' books and I had totally forgotten how good they are. So it made me really happy to read this one. An awesome novel, full of humour, romance, intrigue and love. The plot is brilliant as always, although I must say that in this book the "special agent" side of the story didn't stand out and was just an additional thing which wasn't complimenting the main story line. Nevertheless it didn't make it any less interesting. All the characters are interesting and full of life. A perfect light romance for anyone looking to read a good book.
Sidney has a successful career and after getting heart broken by her fiance she has now moved on with her life. In other words she is finally ready to date again. But this time she knows what kind of guys she must avoid. She is not looking for anything temporary, she wants it all. Vaughn on the other hand exactly the kind of guy she is supposed to stay away from. He is a player through and through. But there is an instant attraction between the two and when circumstances made it hard for them to avid each other, it might be a good idea to give each other a chance. One thing leads to another and soon both are in too deep....
It is one of the best romance novels I read this December and I'd recommend it to all who haven't read it yet ;)
P.S. Happy Holidays and Happy Reading fellows!
