Madison Daniels has worshipped her brother's best friend since they were kids. Everyone thinks she and Chase Gamble would make the perfect couple, but there are two major flaws in their logic. 1) Chase has sworn off relationships of any kind, and 2) after blurring the line between friends and lovers for one night four years ago, they can't stop bickering.

Forced together for her brother's wedding getaway, Chase and Madison decide to call a truce for the happy couple. Except all bets are off when they're forced to shack up in a tacky 70’s honeymoon suite and survive a multitude of "accidents" as the family tries to prove their "spark" can be used than for more than fighting. That is, if they don't strangle each other first…

My Take:

Having a crush on one of your brothers friends is one thing that family and friends pick up on over the years. For Madison Daniels she has it bad for Chase Gamble and even though she displayed it once she is determined to see that her brother's wedding goes with no arguing between her and Chase. Of course though with her arriving last and just one room available sharing with non other than Chase the weekend was sure to be long.

Chase has never seen himself as the type to have everything, even as successful as he is with three clubs. He just never saw himself settle with anyone except maybe one, Madison. For him though she is hands off except that one time that he has regretted the way he handle things, but for her sake its easier for her to not like him at all. Too bad as luck would have it one room left and who is his bunk mate non other than Madison and the room is the old honeymoon room. Yeah luck isn't on his side or is it, he just has to get through the weekend and he can go on. 

Both seem to like and care for each other its just for Chase going for your best friends sister is just not something you ever do. But can these last until the wedding without tearing at each other and even when Madison is so tempting to him, he knows not to touch of course that goes for all the other guys present. Tough luck guys, Madison may not be taken but that doesn't give you access not while Chase is around. 

I loved this so much not only because the author's writing in any form is pure joy but because it had me laughing, screaming, and sometime even wanting to slap Chase is the face. Madison knew what she saw in Chase and saw that he wasn't like his dad and he would treat any girl right. If only Chase would see that he really is the right guy for her. I liked the fact that he tried so hard to stay away but she was just so tempting and infuriatingly sexy. This was enjoyable and seemed like a breeze that I wouldn't mind reading again I enjoyed everything about it and others will too. 

5/5 Stars- loved ever word of this!!!!!

Starting over sucks. 

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring…. until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. 

And then he opened his mouth. 

Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something…unexpected happens. 

The hot alien living next door marks me. 

You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon’s touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. 

If I don’t kill him first, that is.

My Take:

When your new to a small town in the middle of well no where it's hard trying to even think about making friends and for  Katy making an effort in a small town is crazy to even consider it. Katy is used to being alone though, she manages her blog and loves to find that next great book. So when her mom says to make the effort and introduce herself to the neighbors she does just that. What she didn't expect was to the see the most amazing guy who belonged on billboard ads and be seen everywhere, but that allusion is shattered the moment he opens his mouth. Yup life was a lot better without someone like Daemon to be an ass, and because his twin sister has an interest in Katy and wants to be her friend, so Katy of course wants to Dee friend as well. Daemon hates their friendship and even as so much as tells Dee in front of Katy that this shouldn't be happening. What is his deal right, can't a girl be friends without any complications.

The answer should have never been so hard to hear and when he tells her that his family isn't from around their its hard to believe. Because when a hot alien comes and rescues you any one would run for the hills right? For Katy though because she is 'glowing' with his essence, she needs to be near Daemon at all times. Like thats going to happen, she wouldn't even hung out with him if he was the last alien on earth. Except with just his look he is able to get under Katy skin and she doesn't like it one bit.

With light comes dark and because of her essence she is target number 1. Life shouldn't ever feel this complicated right, liking a guy and hating the same guy should be easy right. Nope, Katy has to not only look over her shoulder for the bad guys she also has to stay away from Ash who just happens to be Daemon's ex and of course one of them. Yup who said life couldn't get interesting in a small town and for Katy her connection to the biggest ass is just one of those things on her list. I loved this because 1 it's by Jennifer and 2 hot guy on cover = hot guy in my fantasies yup dreaming never felt so intriguing before.

5/5 stars, Daemon is now on my mind every second its kinda weird.
