** I received and ARC from the Author for an honest review. **


This is book 4 in the Love Series by Megan Smith. If you have not read books 1-3 then I strongly suggest you read those before attempting to read this book 

This book is about Jaylinn and Cooper's relationship. We first met these two in the very beginning of the series. You knew that they are very close and you are very curious about their relationship and in this book you get the answers you are looking for. 

Jaylinn is such a sweet girl. I have loved her character from the very beginning. She is very loyal and loving friend and sister. I was always curious to know what had happened to her, because I always had the feeling that she is carrying something a bit dark around with her. Her and Hunter did not have the greatest of childhoods because of their father. 

Cooper's character is much like that of his twin brother Mason. Baseball hottie that definitely used his status and looks to his advantage, until that one night when everything changed. His relationship with Jaylinn changed and they became so close, but there was something holding Cooper back. He just couldn't let go of the past and the feeling of failure. 

I hated when their relationship unraveled, but I also loved it too because I connected so much with the book. I felt the sinking feeling in my stomach when I knew things were changing for them...and not for the better. I felt choked up when things are revealed and they don't know how to fix them. My heart raced at all the right parts of the book. My palms were sweaty when the "curve ball" was thrown. Those are all the things that I need to feel at least once for the book to get 5 stars and boy did I through the emotions. 

I am going to impatiently  waiting for the next book in the series. The way this one ended was just so cryptic. What did Hunter need to tell Jaylinn? We already know what Jaylinn wants to tell Hunter. This series is such a great series. It keeps you wanting more and the story line and characters are very well written. You will fall in love with all of the Cahills & McCormicks.

~ MEET THE AUTHOR ~
 Emily McKee 

For the past 21 years, I have been a planner and an organizer. I always needed things a specific way and then everything changed for me. I've always had a vivid imagination and thoughts racing through my mind. I realized that life is way too short to let things pass me by, because in the blink of an eye everything could change. So I decided to just live in the moment, taking every chance and opportunity led my way. No second thoughts and just going with the flow. 

I decided to put the fictional characters and the conversations going on in my head to paper. I know, it makes me sound crazy, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I've embraced crazy and hectic and last minute because it's led me to making my dreams a reality.

When I'm not writing Happily Ever After's I'm reading about them and living one. I think this world is filled with too much sadness already we don't need to read about it as well. I write because I love it and I've allowed my imagination to run wild and be crazy and free. Just like me. ❤

But the only man who catches Phin’s eye is a handsome and mysterious stranger she meets at the airport.
Byron is a guy whose angle Phin just can't figure out.  All she knows is that he’s a thief... First, he tries to steal her luggage. Then, he tries to steals her massage.  Finally, he tries to steal her heart.

** I was provided an ARC from the Author for an honest review **
* This review will also be posted on Shanoff Says on Facebook *


I really enjoyed Lovefools. It is a sweet & sexy read with a tad bit of mystery thrown in the mix. 
I loved Phin and I loved her name, it was very unique. Phin's character is really sweet and easy to connect with. I felt pain that her douche of an ex, Douglas, had cause her. I could feel the confusion she was feeling when she started to feel something towards The Hottie, Byron. Even the guilt she felt because she thought she was being unfaithful to Douglas was understandable. I thought that I would get super tired of her waffling about the Douglas situation, but I really enjoyed when she changed back into the old Phin (which Dez, her BFF, referenced a time or two). Her character is very well written as well as the other characters. I really enjoyed Dez, Estevan & Byron, I even liked Carlito for a little bit. 

The relationship that started to grow between Phin and Byron was a little touch and go at time. They definitely had the sexual chemistry and tension going on. It did not take long for me to figure out Byron's hesitance to take things any further with Phin, but it added the needed drama to the storyline. This storyline is quite a bit different from your normal "girl with broken heart tries to get over her ex" romance. There is quite a bit of things that go on in this book to keep your attention and excited to get to the bottom of it all. 

So now the reason 4 stars instead of 5...
I really did enjoy the relationship that Phin and Byron shared, but at the same time there was never that "shift" for me when you feel them falling in love.  It just seemed sudden and there wasn't enough of that warm and fuzzy feeling for me to make that leap with them. The other thing that was not really neccessary, but with all the light shed on it during the story, was Dez and Estevan's relationship. It was never addressed at the end and was kind of just left with no closure...for me anyway. 

Obviously my cons were not enough for me to give anything less that 4 stars so I would recommend this book if you want a sweet, sexy and fast paced story. The mystery factor is what really made this story really come together and more engaging.  Give it a try!
