FIVE
WOMEN. ONE NIGHT. ONE YEAR TO GET IT RIGHT.
Betrayed
and abandoned by a cheating husband, Jessie wants nothing more than a
fling—until handsome detective Mick Landers finds both her missing
son and the way to win “forever.”
"Jessie
had never been bold when it came to men, but last night, after Mick
had kissed her, she’d made a firm decision. Mick was her chosen
target. Just the thought of pursuing an affair with him made her feel
like a new woman. A new sexy, free woman.
Her
BFF Heather had been so right. Jessie needed a fling to jump start
her single life. Divorce sex had been Heather's term. And after Mick,
who knew? Maybe she’d find another guy and do it again. Maybe she’d
become a serial--what? Flinger? Was that even a word?
She
grinned. It was now."
Review
****This book is part of a blog tour, I received a copy in exchange for my honest review****
This
book starts out with Jessica going to a New Years Eve party at her friends’
house, the next morning the make a list of qualities the perfect man for them
would have. Jessica recently moved back to San Diego with her two children, her husband
left her and she is emotionally messed up because of this. She doesn't want
anything series so when she meets the hot cop Mick, she decides to have a post
divorce fling. When things start to get series she has to decide if she is
willing to open up and possibly be hurt again. Jessica was a smart,
responsible, loving and a wonderful mother. Mick was a hot cop, who never let
anyone get close. He always put the job first, when he meets Jessica his
thinking begins to change. I liked the beginning of this book and the close
friendship Jessica shares with Heather. I did want to see more interactions
between Jessica and her other friends though. Jessica earned my respect when
she decided not to mix her fling and her kids; she didn't want her kids to have
another person leave them. I was disappointed when the relationship started to
get series and Jessica still refused to let Mick interact with her kids. The
sex scenes were mild/hot, a few of the scenes were more telling instead of
showing. I enjoyed the simplicity of this book, it was a straight forward love story.
