String Me Along by Lilian T. James

5.0

You are not in like with this man, Layla. It doesn’t matter that he loves his grandma and isn’t the selfish bastard you’d painted him to be. It doesn’t matter that he ditched out on a show to be there for you. You do not want to fuck his brains out and snuggle your cheek against his perfect pecs afterward. You don’t. You don’t. You don’t.

Sometimes a slow burn with all the pain and feels is exactly what you need to break that book slump.

First off, I’ve loved Lilian T. James since I stumbled upon her erotic novella Love Me Dirty and while the other two full length books in this series are extremely different they all have heart.

I was weary of this one because I’m not much for rockstars or musicians but this was two up and coming local musicians without ridiculous fans getting in the way.

It had all the build up as Meet Me Halfway with so much laughter, love and a true village of friends helping each other get through this crazy thing called life. Cute little pups and one adorable boy included from the first book. And both Garrett and Maddison AND Nate and Marissa are part of the fun! Not enough Harry and Sarah in my opinion but still so good. In other words, don’t read this until you read the others in the series.

I loved that Layla was the uncertain one in the relationship, the one who feared commitment and didn’t want to let others down in her life over a a guy.

Adrian was sarcastic, patient and full of bubbling emotions. But when he finally took control…WOW. This author knows how to make one good sex scene worth every page it took to get there and you really feel so invested and full of joy when it happens.

Now if Lilian could give me a filthy, smut novella every so often all my wishes will come true.
