Jake is my favorite Clayton Falls guy so I was very excited for his book and was not disappointed. Jake finally fesses up to some of his past wrong doings to his brother, Ben and his wife Molly. Upset over the whole event he heads to a bar, gets drunk, then crashes his car on the ride home. This mistakes leads him to realizing he needs to make some changes in his life. As does the hot nurse he meets and begins to date.

Jake is very charming so of course even in the hospital I could believe he would pick up a girl. LOL Loved the jokes about it throughout the book as well. I love Jake's humor and even his ego but I've always thought he was a good guy and he proves it well in this book. He is still young and kind of wild but he steps up to the challenge of community service and to being a great guy for Emily. Emily is very hardworking and has serious responsibilities so she is not sure if Jake could even be more than a short fling. Jake did a great job of being there for Emily and showing his responsible side. 

Sometimes mistakes help people make changes and so they can be a good thing. Jake's community service leads him to a new job he enjoys and gets him to stop drinking. Also love that Ben and Molly as well as Becca and Gavin from previous books make appearances again. It was nice to know that Jake and Becca were still friends because I enjoyed their friendship during Becca's book. Love the romance and journeys the characters take in this series. Hoping that maybe Emily and Jake's friends, Mel and Cole, might get their own book next?! Would love to see the series continue as I've really enjoyed all three books and couples so far.



"I'm sure that was a pity number, but I don't care. I'm going to heal better now that I know I'll see you again."

"Won't I seem desperate if I say yes?"
"I already sound desperate. Why not join the club?"

"I thought you weren't free this week."
"Yeah, well...some time opened up."
"I knew I was a good kisser..."

There are plenty of less complicated girl out there. Have fun.
I don't want uncomplicated. I want you.

"I've never met anyone like you before. I've never been with a girl I couldn't get enough of. You make my heart race, you make me feel out of control, and I love every second of it."

Rating: 4/5
