Entangled Lovestruck
BLURB
Hello,
Mr. Right...for Now.
With a
month off from culinary school, Jenny Boyd has some serious party plans.
Especially when the hottest guy in the club literally lands in her lap.
He’s 6’2” of cocky, sexy, man-candy, and just as commitment-phobic as she
is.
She’s
definitely off limits…
Graphic
designer Jared Crew is shocked when his best friend's sister-in-law
doesn’t remember him right away. Luckily, she is more than willing to let him
jog her memory, no complications required.
It’s all
fun and games...until the condom breaks.
EXCERPT
Gretchen
snorted and looked back at His Royal Gorgeousness. “What is he doing?”
“Juggling?”
Jenny
watched, mouth open, as Man-Candy juggled three limes in the air while bending
backward, tilting his head enough so that the laughing female bartender could
pour a shot directly into his mouth. The crowd gathered around him cheered and
he popped back up, still juggling.
“Lime!”
he shouted.
The
bartender tossed a lime slice into the air and he tried to snatch it with his
mouth. And missed. To the disappointment of his groupies.
“Again!”
he said.
The
bartender grabbed another slice, aimed it carefully, and tossed it in an arc.
He staggered backward, keeping the limes in his hands going while he focused on
the one falling through the air.
“Incoming,”
Gretchen said, getting out of the way of certain disaster as he stumbled toward
them, his attention intent on the lime slice.
He
caught it in his mouth right as the back of his foot connected with their
bench. His limes went flying. And so did he. His butt hit the floor. And his
head landed face-up squarely in Jenny’s lap.
She
yelped and pressed back against the bench. Little good that did her. She
couldn’t really go anywhere with him half-laying on her. Didn’t really want to,
if she was honest. He was even hotter closer up. Who was she to turn away a
gorgeous man who introduced himself with his face in her lap? That would be
rude.
He
glanced up, opened his mouth, and smiled, the lime slice wedged firmly between
his teeth. His friends cheered again and he held the lime up like a trophy.
Then he turned his attention to Jenny.
“Hey,
there.” He beamed up at her like she was his new best friend. “Sorry about
that. I’m usually a bit more graceful with the party tricks.” He slid off her
lap and stood, before holding out a hand to help her up.
“Not
a problem,” she said. She glanced at the lime he’d dropped on the table. “That
was impressive.”
“Thank
you.” He looked her up and down and she shivered as if he’d run his hands over
her body. And then she returned the favor, biting her lip as she feasted on the
incredible specimen of manhood before her.
He
gave her a slow, sensual grin that had her sucking in her breath.
“Interested?”
he asked.
Nice
line. Short, sexy, and to the point. She approved .“Very. You?”
His
eyebrows raised in surprise. Maybe he wasn’t used to women who didn’t play hard
to get. Judging by the sudden heat in his eyes, he didn’t mind at all.
“Extremely,”
he said. “My place?”
She
shook her head. “Dance floor.”
He
playfully pouted and it was all she could do to keep from sucking his bottom
lip into her mouth.
She
laughed. “Sorry. Only dancing tonight.” For
now. “Still interested?”
“Definitely,”
he said.
He
walked backward, keeping his gaze glued to hers while he made his way out to
the floor. The crowd parted for him like he was Moses parting the Red Sea.
Jenny
took a deep breath to try and calm her frantically pounding heart and leaned
over to Gretchen, while still keeping her focus on him.
“Don’t
wait up for me.”
Gretchen
laughed. “Sorry. If things look like they are getting out of hand, I’m going to
come drag you away. If you don’t come home tonight, Rick is going to have a
total shit fit. He’ll have half the Hoboken PD out looking for you.”
Jenny’s
sigh was full of fondness mixed in with exasperation. She loved Rick, but
having a big brother who was a cop took the protective thing to a whole new
level.
“You’ve
got a point. I’ll try and rein it in, but you might seriously have to come pull
me off the dance floor.”
“You
really think your self control is that bad?”
“I
know it is.” Jenny set her drink down. “He’s hot and I’m bothered and that’s a
recipe for disaster. Well, it’s actually a recipe for some insanely hot sex.
But I guess having my big brother come kick down the door would sort of put a
damper on the mood. And Rick was very specific about me making it back home
tonight. Ugh. Fine. I’ll try and keep it in my pants, if I must.”
“You
must,” Gretchen said with a wink, heading off to do a little dancing of her
own.

Kira
Archer resides in Pennsylvania with her husband, two
kiddos, and far too many animals in the house. She tends to laugh at inappropriate
moments, break all the rules she gives her kids (but only when they aren't
looking), and would rather be reading a book than doing almost anything else.
She has odd, eclectic tastes in just about everything and often lets her
imagination run away with her. She loves her romances a little playful, a lot
sexy, and always with a happily ever after.
REVIEW
My Rating: ❤❤❤❤ (4 Baklava Stars)
Sweetly, Deeply, Absolutely is a lovely, delicious and mouthwatering read. It have a delightful romance, pretty steamy and very compelling.
Jared Crew is a fascinating character as a hero and I might have a little crush on him. He is a non-commitment kind of guy and I enjoyed his transition from being Mr. Party Animal to a guy who would relocate to Paris to be with his girl. That is so incredibly sweet, romantic and touching. And I love that he finally have the courage to start up his own business and be a better man for Jenny.
The heroine, Jenny Boyd is the type of person that I would love to be best friend with. I mean, she can bake mean cakes, also love to party and she study in Paris. Seriously, what not to like? I love that she also knows what she want to be in career-wise and she work hard for it. That is a trait that I admire. And I'm happy that she met Jared because they are perfect for each other.
I particularly like how the romance progressed between Jared and Jenny from the start when they first met, the sexual tension, the steamy scenes, their closeness during the pregnancy scare and the epic reconciliation. I love how there are no loves scenes for each and every chapters because less is more and when it is there you tend to appreciate it more. And I love that this book makes me anticipate and appreciate it.
I would totally, definitely and absolutely recommend Sweetly, Deeply, Absolutely to romance readers who are looking for a good love story to satisfy their carving for a delightful and delicious read.
Thank you for hosting SWEETLY, DEEPLY, ABSOLUTELY today!
