Jessie and Jack provide a brilliant chase where Jack is constantly kept on his toes and Jessie shows her loyalty to her family and her love for her son. It is heart warming to see how Jack instantly connects with Jessie's young son and just seems to slip effortlessly into their lives. Of course both Jessie and Jack hit a few bumps and have a few misunderstandings, which only makes the romance seem more plausible and endearing. I already love this series and can't wait to read the next one! Sep 28, Kristal Kitap added it.

May 10, Debby "Piene Raven" rated it really liked it Shelves: Well with that being said, I can say this was one story I was totally captivated by the characters and story line. Jessie Mann, a waitress working the graveyard shift has had enough of broke men or men wanting to use her for what little she has…which is practically nothing. She has enough trouble in her life and dating some guy she thinks is interesting and cute isn't enough.

She is bent on finding her a rich man so that she can feel secure and find security for her 5-year old son, Danny. She also wants to help her sister, who lives in her tiny one bedroom while she attends nursing school. Jack Morrison is a deadbeat-looking cowboy who drives an old pickup truck and looks as if he has no future or ambition. He is tired of women wanting him for his money and not seeing the real Jack, the Jack with the rugged race, black Stetson, southern drawl and dippled cheeks.

Jack was born into money and has made a life for himself on his own becoming a billionaire of hotels.

Jessie has responsibilities, and she knows a loser guy like Jack can make life tougher. Jessie doesn't want anything to do with him, and that's okay which.

All under the pretense that he has friends that owes him favors but all along he is rich as Croesus. What began as friendship ends of with the two having a heavily heated attraction for one another.

Unable to control their attraction, they end up becoming intimate and that is where Jack fails. He jumps head in first and asks her to marry him and puts her on the run.

The HEA in all this is that they both made mistakes, make amends and head to the alter.

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the story and look forward to the next book in her series. Sep 26, Juanita rated it liked it Shelves: Un romanzo che fila via senza accorgerti, lo avrei letto in molto meno tempo se non fossi stata impegnata con altre cose da fare. I protagonisti sono simpatici e ben combinati. Sicuramente personaggi che si ritroveranno nei seguiti. L'ambientazione natalizia completa il quadro. Una lettura scacciapensieri che avvolge come una coperta calda. Feb 03, Lovetoread rated it it was amazing Shelves: I was not disappointed. The story really draws you in after the first few pages and never lets you go.

And on the other hand, the rich guy masquerading as one of his minions to see if he could be loved for himself and not merely for the content of his deep wallet.

Despite this lack of imagination in the plot, the characters, main and secondary, were highly likeable, the dialogues seemed all real.

What she do Review posted: It rubbed me the wrong way initially when Jessie said she only wants to date someone with money. After getting to know her, that statement really meant that she wants someone dependable, stable, and not likely to steal her rent money. Jack slowly works his way into her life and bonds with her young son Danny and he becomes someone that not only Jessie can depend on but her sister Monica who lives with her and Danny as well. It was cute seeing the different ways Jack was trying to take care of Jessie without her knowing. Whether it was paying for her car repairs, or even secretly setting up a way to buy her a new car, it seemed like for once he enjoyed spending money on someone, too bad that someone wanted nothing to do with feeling indebted to him.

Whether it was watching Danny, helping her when her son got sick, or buying her a new car without her knowing, he took care of her. Monica is a fun character to get to know and I look forward to seeing more of her in the future. If you want a quick read, this sweet romantic story would fit the bill. The characters are all likable and I enjoyed getting to know everyone and most importantly, I enjoyed seeing Jack and Jessie fall into friendship and then in love.

Quando Jake Morrison entra nella tavola calda aperta 24 ore su 24 al seguito dei suoi amici, rimane subito intrigato da Jessie: Con uno stile semplice e scorrevole, l'autrice ha creato una storia romantica, fresca, divertente e coinvolgente!

Per me rappresenta la "coperta di Linus", quel libro che mi assicura una piacevole lettura fatta di amore, sogni, risate e lieto fine. Non vedo l'ora di leggere i prossimi libri della serie! Sep 13, sraxe rated it it was ok Shelves: The beginning was promising but then it got annoying really quick with Jessie's constant denials. THEN, if that wasn't annoying enough, there was just Oh and this nonsense: But what does that have to do with Jack's situation? I feel like the author just threw that in there to make over-dramatic Jessie sound wise or something because all the man did was avoid telling you that he was loaded.

I hardly think that's testing the pillars of trust in a relationship. And this nonsense too that Monica was spouting: Why the hell does Jack have to be the one to come and prove his love for her??

I took a break from online dating for a while, which translated into a full-on dating rut. When she met the man she would ultimately marry, they became something of an editing team for me, with her now-husband offering his male take on my profile, dates, or current partners. But it helps to have someone who can look at a bunch of details and see a picture emerge, a narrative that just might be worth telling. The gal from Bumble was definitely cute and smart — information deduced from a LinkedIn page I tracked down and a few articles — and she seemed to care about some of the same issues that my friend did.
