Thanks to my friend Rach for gifting this book to me so that I could review it for the blog! I appreciate your generosity more than you know. Your support of this blog is greatly appreciated. Jackson Wilder was great in "Anything But Sweet" and I was excited to read this one. Boy, Jackson did not disappoint! The alpha male, stubbornness, firefighter and Marine persona that Jack has is just part of who Jack is. Jack playing with his daughter Izzy is so swoon worthy, especially when he let Izzy play make up with his face. Abby, long time friend of the Wilder family and Jack's best friend. She leave Jack and the rest of the Wilder family to wonder why she left. Abby has an image as to what will happen since she is back, but she isn't sure how to handle Jack. Watching these two friends turned lovers had me laughing at times, crying at times and wanting to smack Jack! I love these two. Abby has come home to Sweet to fix her parents house and sale it. She left years ago married a rich man and hasn't been back. She has never forgot Jackson her best friend and the guy she always loved. Now divorced she would love to see if they could be more than friends. Jackson has never forgot Abby or the fact that she left him and Sweet years ago. He is afraid to get to close in case she walks away again. He has enough nightmares without added more to the mix. They both are hard headed and it will take a lot to get them to see they belong together.Jackson in the sexy fireman that if you had a fire you would want there. He is hard headed and stubborn but he is also so sweet and caring. Seeing him with his daughter will melt your heart. Abby is afraid of what people think of her but she shouldn't worry. She is beautiful, caring and so good around people. She has a heart of gold. I love both these characters.I am so glad I got to go back to Sweet, Texas. I fell in love with this place and characters in the first book. Jackson comes from a family that has suffered loss but they all care so much for each other. His family considers Abby one of the family and you see how close they all are. I have to say I adore all of them. This book is a wonderful one about two great people who need to stop worrying and get together. You want to lock them in a room till they work things out.I love Jackson's ex as well. She is a great woman. I will say I was worried a few times that Abby and Jackson wouldn't work things out. This is amazing love story anyone will enjoy. I already am impatiently waiting the next book.
What do You think about Sweetest Mistake (2013)?
This was a sweet story and I liked the characters but the big conflict was very contrived.
