The romance is sweet, the friendships are gold, and the characters are ones I couldn\u2019t help but root for!<\/p>\n<p>Ransom and Teagan are good friends, and all of their mutual friends try to push them together since they are the only ones not in relationships. They don\u2019t want to mess up the awesome friendship they have with each other or the friendships they share. If they went for it and things were to go south, they wouldn\u2019t want to tear the group in half. Plus, they also have their own pasts to work through and neither are looking for forever, or so they think.<\/p>\n<p>Ransom and Teagan are great together. The attraction is clear, and the witty banter and fun they have together make their relationship an easy one to enjoy. At the root of it all is a solid friendship. I felt their connection and I understood every emotion they feel. The fear of ruining what they all have was real as was their inability to keep their hands off of each other. They were a spark waiting to combust and I loved watching it all happen. I thought it was believable and loved their well-paced progression from friends to lovers.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cI know you don\u2019t want to get on the merry-go-round of love again. I respect that.\u201d He meets my gaze, leveling an intensely honest stare at me, something he\u2019s been doing a lot of today. \u201cBut I wonder if maybe you already have one foot on that carousel?\u201d<br \/>\n\u2026<br \/>\n\u201cYeah\u2026I\u2019m pretty sure I\u2019m already on the carousel and getting dizzy.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I love that Ransom and Teagan are mature and there is no drama between them. They leave out the angst making this a light, sexy read to get lost in.\u00a0Though it can totally standalone, I recommend reading the other books in the series because we get more of all the characters as well as some fantastic epilogues to swoon over.
