4 Smooches!
Synopsis
She ran from her past.
After relocating from a small town in Tennessee, Mila has been living in New York City for a year and a half, more than happy to be lost in the crowd. Living vicariously through her best friend and roommate, Nikki, Mila spends her days waitressing and her evenings at home. Then, one night, after getting exclusive tickets to a nightclub downtown, Nikki is able to convince Mila to let loose for once.
He’s running from his future.
Having lived a privileged life, William is used to getting what he wants, and who he wants. Now, though, in his thirties, he’s bored, and seeking more from his life than mindless sex, and even worse—mindless women. Spotting Mila from across the club, he senses right away that she’s different from what he’s used to, an observation that proves true.
One night together will change everything for both of them. Pasts and futures will collide, secrets will be revealed, and the results will transform both their lives forever.
Review
Wow, I just finished Shut Up and Kiss Me and I really enjoyed it but I have to say that I am shocked. I did not expect this one from Madeline or Claire. It was a bit shocking and I honestly thought it was a trick and at some point a big bad biker was going to come out and kid nap the main the character or maybe one of them would turn into a zombie or something. So, I guess the joke was on me because this was just a really sweet romance with a bit of mystery and action.
The very first chapter you learn that Mila is on the run from something bad. She is in hiding and has done a very good job of making herself invisible until her best invites her for a night of fun out. That is where she meets Will. He is everything she isn’t. He is wealthy, outgoing, and a playboy but he wants to change and he thinks that Mila is just the girl that he could do this with.
“I like different.”
Mila knows she shouldn’t make emotional ties with anyone but Will is pretty persistent. Soon her past comes back to haunt both her and Will and that is when all the action plays out.
“”It was selfish and wrong, but…I wanted this, I needed it. God, I deserved it, didn’t I?”
As usual the writing from these two authors was phenomenal. If you are looking for a book where the courting and coming together of the couple are the main focus through out most of the story, then you should definitely pick this one up. It was a light fun read with a bit of excitement on the side.
