This was a wonderful story by Suzanne Sweeney. Running home to you, is the second installment in the Running Series. The story picks up where Running to You left off.Jette and Evan are degently working to get their resteraunt up and running, but Evan is starting football season at the same time. When all that is going on Evan is acting "off" and changing his moods. This story is AMAZING and such emotions in regards to romance and true friendship. Five star read........but......the ending...OMG....CLIFFHANGER!!!!Next book, please...... ** SOME SPOILERS**How do I even begin? I loved "Running Home to You", book #2 of the "Running series", every bit as much as I loved "Running Back to You", book #1 of the "Running" series!" The story of Evan and Juliette(Jette) picks up right where it left off in "Running Back to You" (Did I mention that I Love both Evan and Jette?) The relationship between Evan and Jette has moved forward and they seem to have moved past the trauma caused by Evan's crazy ex who kidnapped him and ended up severely injuring him. They are finally living together happily in Evan's beach house and their bar/restaurant 'Rush' is in the final stages of being finished. (And their love/sex life is still smokin' hot!)While Evan begins training with The New Jersey Sentinels football team, Jette spends all of her time making sure that every detail is perfect for the Grand Opening of Rush. She's also making sure that all of her staff (most of whom are her close friends)are ready for the big day. While all of this is going on author Suzanne Sweeney is also further developing characters that were secondary in the first book(Auggie, Emmy,Reese, Derek and Marcus). I already feel like the secondary characters from the first book are my friends but as the story progresses they begin to feel more like family. While things look rosy on the outside there is trouble brewing on the inside. Evan is hiding his feelings from Juliette and he is also beginning to act in a bizarre manner creating tension between him and Jette.When things turn ugly between Evan and Jette I never gave up on them even when Jette moved out. I really enjoyed seeing more of Auggie in this book..although we didn't really hear much about him until about 25% of the way into the book. But from there on out he's infused throughout the rest of the story. I also enjoyed getting to see the behind the scenes of pro football with Evan's character and to see pro football from both Evan's perspective as a player and Jette's perspective as his girlfriend. This wouldn't be a Suzanne Sweeney novel if there wasn't some mystery and scary drama involved! While I won't give away any of the details I'll say this...Suzanne knows how to put her readers on the edge of their seats and how to keep up the suspense so that the reader can't put the book down! I read this book in one sitting...which means I was up all night and very sleepy the next day! While things are going really well near the end of the book there is a major cliff hanger! UGH! But this is one of the few series that I don't mind waiting for the last book to come out...as long as it doesn't take too long until the release of the final book! (Did you catch that last line Suzanne?!) This book is already on my favorites shelf and I encourage everyone to read it! I was given a copy of this book for my honest review.
