Summary –
One thing Carissa Brandt knows: spontaneity always get her in
trouble. Still, she’s gone and jumped head first into an impulsive summer
renovation project with her fingers crossed. When her contractor turns out to
be a cheat, it seems her only lifeline is the proffered hand of Josh Hudson—the
sexy Marine who left her aching for more than their single night together three
years ago.
Josh has two hard and fast rules: never mix business with pleasure and don’t look twice at women his friends have dated, much less loved. It makes life in a small town simple—or it would, if he wasn’t harboring a secret with the potential to destroy his good name and the reputation of a woman he can’t get out of his head.
When Carissa finds herself in a bind, Josh’s integrity—both personal and professional—won’t let her fail. Will working together finally extinguish the attraction lingering between them? Or will the smoldering embers of their passionate rendezvous ignite all over again and set aflame the friendships they cherish the most?
Warning: This book contains a hella-sexy, inked up hero, a spunky heroine who isn’t afraid to speak her mind, smokin’ hot sex, and enough swearing to make your momma blush. For readers 18+. (Thanks to GoodReads.com for the summary)
My Thoughts
–
I really
enjoyed Can’t Shake You. The chemistry
was off the charts, the story was amusing and the characters were awesome. Carissa
and Josh worked well together.
This was one
of those situations where the main characters atomically assumed something and/or
didn’t want to upset anyone. OMG – who cares. Put your big girl/boy panties on and go for
what you want. I honestly didn’t see the
reasoning of why “they couldn’t be together”.
I thought
the story was easy to read, understand and enjoy. Great job to the author, I look forward to reading
more from you!!
