Sweetly, Deeply, Absolutely

Cute, fun, sexy and of course sweet, just as the title suggests! Jenny and Jared are both looking for a bit of fun with no strings attached, but soon, they are both feeling more than just attraction. I loved seeing the way their feelings for each other developed, especially while they wait to find out if they are or aren't having a baby. The only reason this is not a five star read for me, is that Jenny did not give Jared the benefit of the doubt when it came to him changing his lifestyle the way she was ready to. Not necessary to read the first two books in the series. 4.5 stars I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book. I was not compensated for this review, all conclusions are my own.

Not having read the earlier titles in the series, I did find that some of the early interactions felt as if I was missing something – but the clear definition of Jenny’s personality was apparent, and her rather scattered approach to her night (and her life) was up front and quite clear. Jared, after a rather awkward introduction was (as expected) intriguing and attractive with one bit of puzzlement – and yes, they had met before even if Jenny doesn’t remember him. Oh it was cute and light, more candy floss than substantive story that dealt with angst and tumult. And that’s just fine. And then, the condom breaks. I’m not a fan of ‘we are now together because” even if the because is simply a cover for undying devotion. And these two – I’ll stand solidly on my impressions that neither is particularly settled or mature, at least not consistently. Sure, there was a big gesture and plenty of clever dialogue to keep me amused, and for the most part I was. I just wanted …..more. While not a must-read and drop everything to devour this book sort of story, it was a perfect diversion for an afternoon read. Clever dialogue, some truly comical moments that both Jenny and Jared drop themselves into will keep you smiling. I received an eArc copy of the title from the publisher via NetGalley for purpose of honest review I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions and expectations are my own responsibility.

I enjoyed this one so much! The story was fun, sweet, and definitely sexy. Jenny Boyd is in town with a month off from the culinary school she attends in France. Looking for a little fun and games during her downtime, Jared Crew seems like the perfect partner in crime. He's a carefree, go with the flow kind of guy. Since they both shared the no commitments philosophy there are no worries about getting too serious. That is until things get real serious real fast! A very entertaining read that everyone should enjoy. I highly recommend it.
