This book was all that and a bag of chips! I absolutely adore Molly McAdams work and each new release gets even better! I laughed so much reading the pranks I. the story and I felt bad for both characters during the heartbreaking parts. Most definitely a must read! Bravo Molly on another out of the park story!!!

Girl loves boy. Boy loves girl, but doesn't know it. It's a simple concept, yet Molly makes it refreshing and light. 
Needing Her is a breath of fresh air, that made me sigh with happiness. It's a hilarious book and the main characters suit each other perfectly. I was formerly a Connor hater (read From Ashes and weep, then learn what true love is) but in this novella he is a new person
with demons you can relate to, or at least understand. Maci is a dream. She is a good role model for women. She is who she is and really doesn't give a (insert choice word here) until she lets love wash over her. 
This story is short, hilarious, not-so-sweet, and lovely. It's the perfect day read for anyone looking for a good novella, or a hopeless romantic. I am stunned by Molly McAdams way to keep writing just honest books that not only can bring joy but also heartbreak. They give more then
a basic story you find in most books today. To this day I have read every Molly McAdams book within the first week of release and have never
been disappointed. I am in awe of her ability to write just phenomenal books that get into not only your head but also your heart. Needing Her just like all of her other books teaches you a lesson you did not know you needed, until well you need her. Molly McAdams

I really wish this was longer... I enjoyed it a lot. I was reminded a little bit of Wallbanger(which is also great, so go read that if you haven't already. You'll laugh your ass off, I promise).

It was as fun, effortless read with interesting character dynamics. Oh, and sexy. Let's not forget sexy.

"I guarantee you, if it were me inside you... the noises you'd be making wouldn't be faked or forced... fuck, Maci, you wouldn't be able to stop them from happening even if you tried."

I was surprised to realize that this and From Ashes was connected. I read From Ashes after this one, and I would absolutely recommend reading From Ashes first, since there are a few spoilers for From Ashes in this one. It can absolutely be read this as a stand alone, though - if you're not interested in reading From Ashes.

Needing her by Molly McAdams is a William Morrow Impulse publication. I was provided a copy of the his book in exchange for an honest review.

Maci has some super overprotective brothers who have a tendency to scare off any potential boyfriends. But, the truth is Maci hasn't really cared all that much until now. She has been in love with a good friend of her brothers named Connor. ( Some of you may know Connor from a previous installment in this series) Conner is going a through a really hard time as he recovers from a relationship that didn't quite work out in his favor. Maci is spending time with Bryce who is more of a friend with benefits type guy. The relationship is obviously going nowhere and so Maci's friend Amber thinks it's time to shake things up a little.
Connor had a really difficult life growing up and and is beset by many fears because of it. Maci has put up a wall around herself so that she behaves as though she is tough and doesn't care, but of course she is much softer than she puts on.
The story is told in dual first person, so you get Connor's point and then Maci's. I was not sure if this was New Adult or Contemporary Romance, so I am going out on a limb and say this story will appeal to lovers of both genres, perhaps more so for the New Adult audience.

I liked this one, but the situation with the brothers was a little ridiculous and Maci should have set the record straight with them long ago. Once you are an adult your brothers shouldn't get a say in who you date. That was perhaps the part I had the most trouble with. That and Maci allowing them to control her love life without so much as making a peep. So, I had some issues with the characters in this one. I liked Connor and understood his reluctance to push the issue with Maci due to his background. Overall this is not a bad story, but it's not a book I would re-read or gushingly recommend to others. I think it appeals to a certain audience but it didn't overwhelm me. So, I'm going with a 3 on this one.

Cheesy romance, but in a good way.
