Fake it \u2018til you make it has been the motto I live by since my mother died.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m also doing a really bad job at the making it part.<\/p>\n
The night we met, I was at my lowest.<\/p>\n
But you gave me a reason to feel happy again.<\/p>\n
For the first time in over a year, I feel optimistic.<\/p>\n
You and I? We\u2019re the same.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t form attachments. Follow the rules. Don\u2019t dream of a future.<\/p>\n
Too bad our hearts wouldn\u2019t listen.<\/p>\n
And this storm we\u2019re going through?<\/p>\n
The one that threatens to rip us apart?<\/p>\n
It doesn\u2019t care that I\u2019m falling for you.<\/p>\n
Falling For You is a different kind of brother\u2019s best friend romance and is as emotional\u00a0as it is sizzling.<\/p>\n

Add to GoodReads<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 4 stars!<\/b><\/p>\n This is such a beautiful story! A sweet, sexy, functional, angst-free romance that had me smiling, swooning and sighing happily. Rex and Chloe\u2019s love story is just gorgeous, and I loved it!<\/p>\n This is the second book in the All For You<\/i> series. You can read it as a standalone, but be aware that there is some significant character crossover and this book contains spoilers for the first book, Gone For You<\/a>.<\/p>\n Rex is an IT geek who also works as a bartender with Ethan (hero from book #1) and is known for his ease with women. His reputation as a bit of a player is well known, and he has no interest in a relationship, but he\u2019s a sweet guy with a huge heart, and when he spies a gorgeous woman in his bar who is clearly having a hard time, he is instantly drawn to her and can\u2019t help but try to help her.<\/p>\n Chloe is reeling from the loss of her beloved mother, who was her best friend and biggest support. She\u2019s having a really bad time and is struggling with life when Rex comes into her world. Bright and bold, he is there for her even though she\u2019s practically a complete stranger, and though she is understandably wary of him \u2013 especially given his reputation \u2013 she can\u2019t help but fall under his spell.<\/p>\n OMG, I love these two together so much! Neither of them are looking for a relationship, and they\u2019re both a little unsure of what\u2019s happening between them. They just know they feel something for each other and they openly and honestly follow their hearts without any angst or drama, and I love that!<\/p>\n \u201cYou\u2026you\u2026\u201d They are so sweet together, and every little moment between them means so much. Whether they\u2019re just talking, gently touching, spending time together and being playful, or their spine-tinglingly amazing kisses, you can feel<\/i> the emotion behind it and the connection that is forming, and I just loved it! And Rex\u2026 *dreamy sigh*. The man is a dream, and you cannot help but fall for him. He\u2019s smart, funny, and so damn sweet. He puts himself out there for Chloe, working to gain her trust, support her and be there for her, and he holds nothing back, and I loved watching them fall so hard for each other.<\/p>\n \u201cYou\u2019ve made me realize what I was missing. Before you, I was going through the motions day to day but not really living. I know this is new and we still have a lot to learn about each other, but for the first time in a long time, I want to try.\u201d The sexual tension is great, adding a great intensity to the relationship that they are building, and the sexy time is really hot with lots of feels and a great reflection of their growing feelings for each other.<\/p>\n \u201cI want you, for a lot longer than a brief fling. I see the potential for forever here, don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n But life is full of surprises, and they have some big ones coming their way. It puts them to the test in ways they never expected, and I loved watching them deal with it all.<\/p>\n The story ends in a great place with a swoony epilogue that left me with a big, cheesy grin on my face. I loved this book and am really excited for Owen\u2019s story coming up next!<\/p>\n 4 stars.<\/p>\n An Advanced Reader Copy was generously provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.<\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Standalones<\/strong><\/p>\n Gone For You (#1) <\/strong>(Ethan & Olivia) Falling For You (#2) <\/strong>(Rex & Chloe) Staying For You (#3) <\/strong>(Owen & Cami) <\/p>\n From the Ground Up<\/em>\u00a0was Jennifer\u2019s first published novel and now that she was bitten by the writing bug, has no intention of ever stopping. Jennifer makes her home in small town Iowa with her high school sweetheart, three beautiful, hilarious and amazing kids, one crazy Jack Russell terrier. This is where her love for all things reading, baking, and cooking happen.\u00a0 Jennifer\u2019s family enjoys camping, boating, and spending time outside as much as possible. You\u2019ll be her best friend if you can make her laugh and follow up with asking her what to read next. When she\u2019s not writing, you can find her cheering the loudest at her kids\u2019 sporting events (read as: embarrassing them), sipping coffee or iced tea out of a mason jar with her Kindle in her lap or binging on Netflix.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Amazon US\u00a0 |\u00a0 Amazon Worldwide Blurb Fake it \u2018til you make it has been the motto I live by since my mother died.
