4 Smooches!
Synopsis
Becca Campbell is a mother, friend, and widow to a war hero (may he rot in hell). She just wants to raise her daughter right and keep her bed-and-breakfast afloat in this economy. Her traumatic past leaves her with no desire for a relationship—until Grayson James walks through her door. He’s not the type of man you can easily say “no” to. Becca can’t quite understand the pull she feels toward him. But then his controlling nature starts to push her away—and into Ray McNeil’s comforting arms. Which is right where Ray has always wanted her.
Who will Becca choose?
Will she finally give in to her feelings for Ray, or continue the tumultuous relationship with Grayson? Only one thing is certain—either choice will mean saying goodbye to caution.

Review
It was refreshing and a pleasant surprise to read a story about characters who were adults and therefore aware of what they wanted (in a sense, as if the characters always knew exactly what they wanted there probably wouldn’t be much of a story to be told) and who weren’t so naive in their personalities.
Becca was a wonderful character, she was quirky, strong, funny and a lovely and caring mother. She definitely annoyed me at times with the decisions she made and her thought process but the fact I was invested enough to get annoyed at a character is always proof to me that the character has got to me and is someone I am enjoying reading about.
Grayson was a character I had trouble with because there were some aspects I liked about him and others I didn’t. There’s no argument that he was sexy and an alpha male but he was sometimes too possessive and jealous and calling a women he is meant to love a whore takes jealous boyfriend a little too far for me. I was able to move past this though as this was obviously a story about a turbulent relationship so heated arguments are definitely expected.
The plot itself was fast-paced, there was a lot of drama. The constant back and forth arguing between Becca and Grayson did get a little irritating but there was plenty happening within the story that I never became bored and I was 100% hooked, wondering what was going to happen next, if Grayson and Becca were ever going to sort things out and settle and what else was going to come along to mix up the plot.
A fast-paced story, packed full of drama, romance, and passion, with well developed characters means overall I give this book a solid 4 smooches!
