Phoebe Sherwood is in love with her best friend Matt. Matt is in love and about to propose to his girlfriend Nadia. Joe Spencer has just showed up in Sapphire Falls to propose to his best friend and the girl that he has declared will put him on the safe and narrow, Nadia. Confused?? Phoebe and Joe aren’t. They hatch a plan to get Nadia to marry Joe, leaving Matt behind where Phoebe can then marry him.The only catch to this plan? Phoebe can’t keep her hands off the sexy as all hell Joe, and Joe, well he keeps trying to convince himself to stay away from the vibrant Phoebe but his hands and lips (and maybe his heart) just don’t agree….The chemistry between these two is well worth the five stars and the commentary as Joe tries to convince himself to settle for safe Nadia is hilarious.A fantastic support cast continues to make this series a favourite of mine and I highly recommend these books!Reviewed by Diana. This book was okay for me. If it had stuck to a simple boy and girl work together to break up another couple so they can be with them, but end up falling in love instead...then I would have liked it more. However, that train of thought derailed somewhere along the way. I didn't quite get Joe's obsession with hopping a plane and going anywhere or the "break up" near the end and purpose behind it. I would have preferred a little more background on Joe's family and why he was the way he was. I don't think I'm explaining it well, but I just felt like there should be "more" where the main couple was concerned.One positive - I'm convinced Erin Nicholas is a fan of Lorelei James' Rough Rider series. In book 1, there was a character named Daniel Gavin (remember Gavin Daniels of Gone Country) and in this book, Phoebe gets excited because her friend took her suggestion and named her baby Macie (Book 2 of the series) and a conversation ensues on passing around the hot cowboy books they all love to read. Maybe I'm off base, but it made me like the book more because of it.
What do You think about Getting Worked Up (2014)?
Joe and Phoebe's story. Absolutely love this series and Erin Nicholas
