What do You think about More Than Lovers (2013)?
Liked this one more than the first. I think there was a bit more of a connection with both the main characters, where as the first one was more of 'wham!' speeding car crash situation.I like that this is Sarah from the first book! I thought that was a nice way of connecting the series without it really connecting the series.The only thing I didn't really like, was actually the climactic 'talk' at the end. It wasn't that it wasn't good. I just didn't like the words that were chosen. It just didn't feel natural to me. The rest of the convo felt fine, but the first initial sentences felt weird to me.

Slick‘s review posted on Guilty Pleasures Book ReviewsReview copy provided for an honest review4 STARSAhhh….Jess Dee is the master of hot, sexy, and thoroughly enjoyable novellas. The More Than series is perfect for those moments when you need a quick fix but don’t have a ton of time to get into a long book. Do they drive me a little nuts because I want more? Sure, but because I know this going in I’m never disappointed. In More Than Lovers, Jess turns the heat up to broil when surfer Charlie Hudson and his geneticist neighbor, Sarah Deacon find themselves at a crossroads and trying to figure out what path to take.Opposites attract, we’ve heard that our whole lives and Charlie and Sarah couldn’t be more different. Charlie dropped out of high school and opened his own surf school. He loves what he does and he’s good at it but deep down his lack of education makes him doubt his self worth. Sarah works at the university teaching genetics, she’s well educated and well bred. While she’s enjoyed her “fuck buddy” relationship with Charlie she really wants more and she thought she had it with her latest boyfriend, but when she’s dumped she heads straight to Charlie for the comfort he always provides. Charlie is always more than willing to provide exactly what she needs.Holy hotness when these two are together they melt the polar ice caps. Seriously folks they have some major chemistry and although Sarah would like more from Charlie, he’s told her from the start he’s not the one for her. When he realizes he’s developed real feelings for her he decides to find her a man to settle down with all the while he’s waiting for her when she gets home, screwing her silly, and sleeping over something they’ve never done in the past.This is a fun and sexier than hell novella you do not want to miss. I enjoyed watching these characters come to terms with the change in their relationship and for finally with a little help from Charlie’s friend Sam figuring it all out. More Than Lovers is a superb addition to this series. Once again Jess Dee has proves she can pack a whole lot of story in a little package!

This one gets 5 fantastic stars, and I'd give it 10 if I could! I loved the first one in this series More Than Friends, but I have to say that this one was even better! As I've said many times before, Jess Dee is a master with emotions and making you fall in love with her characters. Sarah and Charlie have a connection that neither of them really intended to go further than intense scorching hot sex, but over the last 18 months of their affair feelings have somehow evolved and they find themselves looking at each other in a different light. Charlie is convinced he isn't good enough for her despite how much he cares. Sarah on the other hand is convinced that Charlie is just looking for a good time and wouldn't be interested in anything further. Only seeking what he thinks is best for Sarah, Charlie takes it upon himself to find her perfect match in the form of a bet that she go on 3 dates of his choosing. Although Sarah reluctantly accepts the terms of the bet, Charlie and Sarah find themselves moving closer and closer as their once clear lines start to blur. I highly suggest this one guys for not only the fact that it has some scoring hot love scenes, but that it was just such an overall sexy, sweet, and emotional read!
