I seriously freaking LOVED this book! Clover and Marshall’s sexy, hilarious, emotional, and swoon-worthy love story was absolutely brilliant and completely exceeded all of my expectations and more! They have some of the funniest banter, but some of the most heartfelt moments as well.

The storyline was stellar and definitely took me by surprise—in a good way. The plot was perfection and kept me addicted and entertained throughout with some twists and turns along the way. The chemistry between Clover and Marshall was through the roof, and at times it felt a lot more like hate than love. They could push each other’s buttons perfectly, knowing exactly how to wind the other up to reach boiling point. But when they actually opened up and began to let each other in, it was so clear how they were meant to be. The emotional journey these two will take you on is ever so slightly angsty, exhilarating and ultimately very rewarding. There are some very deep emotions that really balance out the humour and make this book a much more thoughtful experience. The slow burn, push and pull between these two had me devouring the pages. Their banter had me laughing out loud and smiling like a loon. The emotion between them just leapt off the page.

Hooked is feel good romance with just the right amount of heartfelt emotion and humour. I laughed so hard at so much of it but I was also so consumed with these multidimensional characters and the many layers that made them who they are. I enjoyed seeing the growth as their journey unfolded and I rooted for their happy even in times of tension. The story is perfectly balanced with just the right amount of everything. It's hilarious and witty and frustrating. It's crazy sexy and a whole lot of surprising. As a whole this book is so well rounded. The plot progression is everything. I was completely consumed from page one with the characters demanding my attention. It's seamlessly written and I felt every emotion that the characters felt and it’s also really relatable in so many ways. This book was an absolute delight to read, and the dynamics between the characters kept me utterly entertained. Without a doubt Marshall and Clover are a top Jacob Chance couple for me! A truly wonderful addition to this series.

This book was so cute but so short!! I wanted more but I was rooting for clover and Marshall the whole time, so I was happy with the outcome. Although I was a little irritated by how mad clover was with Marshall at the end, I can appreciate making a man sweat for a bit

I finished this so quickly. Such a great addition to the series! Marshall and Clover are definitely my new favorite couple of the series. Their story was amazing. It's definitely well-written. It's also filled with witty banter, hilarious back and forth, hot chemistry, and tension between the two. I was swooning with Marshall's tactics to win Clover after some misunderstanding. Definitely, a must read!

Omg! I love this series!! Swoon—Marshall can try to win me over anytime! His gestures-in operation win Clover back-were so sweet & silly how could Clover not love them?? I seriously lol’d at the bathroom update (because yes like a teenage boy I found it hilarious-sorry not sorry).

Instead of the brother's-best-friend trope we got in the last book, we've got the best-friend's-brother/sister's-best-friend trope in this one... and the brother in question? Yup, the older brother of our h from the last book. Our couple HATES each other. With a passion... or so we thought. Apparently, one night a few years ago they both let their guards down and Marshall put a stop to things and reverted to his manwhore ways. Clover has never forgiven him and neither have told anyone. When Clover gets into a situation where Marshall steps in to rescue her, he takes her away to help her forget - and to create some new memories. Honestly, the chemistry between the two of them was electric, however, I would have thought there'd be a lot more drama with the whole secret-relationship, miscommunication, his jealousy of her ex, her jealousy of all the puck bunnies who know that he's a manwhore... and while there was drama (and had the most out of any of the books in this series), it never got crazy and out of control. This series introduced me to Jacob Chance and I'll be reading more from him soon!
