4 Stars!!

This was another good story from the Love in the City Series. I liked that I was able to go from Book 1 straight into Book 2 so that everything was still fresh in my head. You meet Harper Jennings and Maverick Jones in Book 1. Harper is Carter's sister, and Mav is Elly’s best friend. It was nice to already know their history prior to starting their book.

Harper is a high end fashion designer that looks good from the outside, but is anything but on the inside. To everyone’s eyes, she looks like she has it all but no one knows that she struggles with Bulimia. She didn’t do it to be skinny; she did it because she couldn’t handle the pressure and stress of her everyday life. Then one day, she finds out that one of her close friends passed away, a friend that was also struggling with the same sickness. So, with the help of her best friend Max, she checks herself into rehab to start a new life….

”Although, I was being honest with myself, I was already lost, but I didn’t want to die.”

Maverick (Mav) owns a high end gym in New York City. Mav had a close friend of his, Camille, pass away due to Bulimia and always felt he didn’t do enough to help her fight her sickness. So in honor of her memory, he opens a clinic within his gym that will help counsel and guide people that are struggling with eating disorders. Being close friends with Mav, Elly suggest that he should also use mentors that have experience with dealing with eating disorders so that his clients have someone they can talk to; someone who can relate to what they are going through. Mav agrees and Elly sets up an appointment for him to meet Harper to see if she can help.

When Mav and Harper meet for the first time, it doesn’t go well. Mav realizes who Harper is and what she does for a living and wants nothing to do with her. Then, things change and soon he can’t seem to keep her out of his head.

Once they get past their rocky road, sparks start to fly and they both realize that their feelings towards each other are more than just 2 people working together. One thing nice about this book was that their relationship went pretty smooth. There was a little drama here and there but nothing that got between them. It did also have a little suspense due to a situation that involved Max, Harper's best friend.

This was a good continuation to Wanted by You, and I am looking forward to reading more about the rest of the gang!! I wonder if Max will have a book, and I'm hoping that the next book will be about Carter and Harper's younger sister, Bayler. She is too funny, and I am really enjoying her character!!
