Some Sort of Love by Melanie Harlow




Summary by Amazon:

You might think I had it all—a career I loved, a supportive family, the Nixon metabolism but not the Nixon ears, and a salary that supported my lavish taste in designer shoes, fine wine, and lacy lingerie … but I had no one to share it with.

Until the day I ran into him—my one night stand from college with the crooked smile, let’s-get-out-of-here eyes, and dirty, dirty mouth.

Cute and cocky then, today Levi Brooks is six feet four inches of hot bearded fantasy. A sexy single dad with broad shoulders, strong hands, and a fantastically big … heart. (I mean, it’s massive. And generous. And it pumps so hard … um. Sorry. Lost my place.)

Being a good father means everything to him, but he's keeping me at a distance because he thinks I deserve someone better — a man who can give me more time, more attention, more of himself. He doesn’t believe he could ever be enough.

But he's wrong.

He’s everything.



My Thoughts:

     This is book number three of the Happy Crazy Love series but it can be considered a stand-alone.  My recommendation though? Start at number one (Some Sort of Happy) and read them in order….but I’m anal like that.

     Well, what can I say? Melanie Harlow has done it again with this series which is loosely connected to her last one, Frenched, in that those characters make an appearance or two.  The Nixon sisters are the leads in this new series and I am very sad to say that this is the last book.

     This is the story of eldest sister, Jillian, and her reunion with a college fling, Levi.  A lot of things have changed over the last decade for them both but they definitely still have a spark between them! Levi is sweet, conflicted and a bit of a dirty talker!  If that’s your jam then you will love him!

      I love that these books always make me laugh and always give me All of The Feels.  Ms. Harlow is excellent at giving you a fresh, new storyline but still making you cry and laugh all at the same time!  If I had to complain about something it would be that there’s a lot of pages during the Falling For Each Other part but it seemed a little like the Making Up part was shorter and rushed….what can I say, I like the angst!


P.S. This is the second check off of my ReadingChallenge for the year in that it was A Book I Read in a Day-which ought to tell you how awesome it is.

 4.5/5 stars on this one
