4 Star Contemporary Romance
Reading All of You by Dee Tenorio, the first book in The Lonnigans series certainly entertained me on all fronts. Wickedly sensual with a touch of the trademark Tenorio humor in all the right places (which I came to identify and fall in love with after reading Betting Hearts) and characters who just leaped right out the pages certainly made for an unforgettable read. A huge thanks to Ms. Tenorio for providing me a copy of this story filled with several laugh-out-loud moments together with enough passion to curl my toes inward all the way!
Jessica Saunders has been seeing Lucas Lonnigan (twin of Kyle Lonnigan) for the past 4 months in the most platonic relationship she has ever being in. Solely focused on her career as a financial lawyer, Jessica is a woman who has sworn off all sorts of things to do with emotions and making herself vulnerable enough to feel anything for anyone apart from herself. When she agrees to see Lucas the fateful night that everything changes, the only thing that Jessica wants is to break things off with Lucas, until in walks a version of the man himself that seems to have personified every wild and wanton craving that Jessica has ever had.
When Kyle who works as an investment banker switches dates with his twin Lucas he has no idea that he is about to meet the one woman who would irrevocably change his life. Kyle who plans everything to death so that his life would go according to his whim finds himself poleaxed by the need to claim and possess his brother’s date as his own, a need that seems to be reciprocated which concludes the night in Kyle having the most fabulous sex of his life – before he is able to tell Jessica (Jess or Jessie as he calls her tenderly) who he really is.
What follows is the story of how Kyle who six months back had suddenly found his life lacking decided that marriage and 2.5 kids were what he needed, tries to convince Jessica that together they could achieve his dreams of a happy home and family. But Kyle finds out the hard way that the woman who rocks his world on so many levels, the woman he wants to claim as his wife and the mother of all his babies, is the one woman on the planet who has no intention of committing herself to a life as the one he has envisioned.

My review cross-posted from Joyfully Reviewed: http://www.joyfullyreviewed.com/reviews/Mar10/allofyou.dt.html
Kyle Lonnigan has a good life and he knows it. He’s an investment banker, has a loving family (even if his twin can be a bit robot-like at times), and never has a hard time capturing the interest of a beautiful woman. But lately Kyle’s started yearning for more: namely a wife, children, dog, and possibly even a white picket fence to go with it. Kyle is supposed to meet up with his good friend Belinda one night, but his twin, Lucas, comes up with a plan. The two should secretly switch dates for a night. Kyle decides to go along with the plan, not expecting that his date would be the woman of his dreams.
Jessica Saunders is all set to break up with Lucas…until he shows up for their date with a vibrancy she’s never before seen in him. Jessica knows she and Lucas will never go anywhere, but that doesn’t stop her from giving into temptation and relishing in a night of wild passion. Then Jessica finds out she’s slept with her date’s twin and – what’s worse – the man wants her to head down the fast track to marriage and babies with him. All hell breaks loose and Jessica is determined to never see Kyle again.
But Kyle’s not going to take no for an answer. Two stubborn people, each determined to get their way. Will Kyle be able to seduce his way into Jessica’s walled-off heart?
Sparks – and clothes – fly in the sensual All of You. Dee Tenorio has penned a fantastic book with two protagonists who tempt, tease, and argue their way into a relationship neither had expected. Both Kyle and Jessica are so sure of what they want, and their goals are completely opposite, which is half of what makes their attraction to one another so much fun to read about. Each of them has something to learn and I liked watching them grow over the course of the story.
Like all of Ms. Tenorio’s books that I’ve read, All of You is sexy and engaging. I adored the story and was entertained the whole way through. I finished All of You a well-satisfied reader and am eagerly looking forward to reading Lucas and Belinda’s book, All or Nothing.
