💙 LOVE…IT’S COMPLICATED by Jeannine Colette 💙
Release Date: March 7th

Anyone who says love isn’t complicated is a dirty liar. Ask me how I know…

I used to be a normal wife and mother with a perfectly happy life. Now I’m a divorced single mom who spent a night in jail after breaking into the hair salon my ex’s mistress owns.

What can I say? Not my proudest moment.

The only bright spot in that fiasco was the police officer who offered me a sexy, broad shoulder to cry on. William Bronson was a knight in shining armor. A romance novel hero in the flesh.

Then I showed up for work the next day and realized I’d be in charge of planning his fairy tale wedding…to someone else.

And that was just the start of my troubles—romantically and legally (don’t ask).

Now, I need to learn how to navigate my new reality and start building my own happily ever after. I have no idea if it will all end in love…or heartache. All I know for sure is that it’ll be complicated.

Excerpt:

“You’re flushed.”

“It’s hot in here,” I state.

“Not touching that one.”

“What? No witty comeback?”

“You’re not ready for it.”

“Try me,” I dare and instantly regret it or welcome it. Verdict’s out as he turns to me fully, his body angled to mine.

For some reason, the way he’s looking at me—really looking me, as if it were the first time—has my coy smile falling.

“When I was cooking before, I was in a sweatshirt because there’s a draft that creeps under that wall over there. As soon as you walked in, I couldn’t stand being in it. When you walk in a room, the temperature rises. My palms are slick, and my whole damn body feels like an inferno. I swear it’s your eyes. They’re dark but with flecks of gold that make them appear alive, like a flame that dances and flickers. Or maybe it’s your candy lips, cherry-stained and beckoning me to lean in and press my lips against them. They make me burn. I want to kiss that mouth because I know how sweet it tastes. It makes me think of how sweet the rest of you will taste.”

His words pierce through my core, and I’m derived of every thought and feeling. I wasn’t prepared for his honesty. It’s heady, and my brain fizzles, as if I drank too much wine yet I only had a cup.

While these words should make me nervous, they do the opposite. They make me feel … euphoric. Isn’t this what I’ve wanted for myself? Isn’t this why I’ve placed myself in this man’s company again and again despite the red flags waving around me, telling me it’s not right?

I never set out to find a man, but I’ve always wanted something more. Something big.

Big love.

I want to laugh and have good conversation over whiskey, to dance in courtyards, and to feel that shiver, that feminine quake that was reawakened in me the moment I met Officer William Bronson in a cold cell, late on a Friday.

There are so many reasons why I shouldn’t be with him. God, there are so many, and yet I cast them aside.

Love…It’s Complicated by Jeannine Colette
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I started this book not sure what to think of Will. I mean he didn’t do anything wrong per say, but he was not innocent. What I did love was the banter. Melissa was adorable. I loved her ramblings when she was nervous. Will was a good man. His way of entering her life wasn’t ideal, but I can look pass it and admit I ended up loving him half way through, because his focus to love her and all she holds dear, was impossible to resist.

They were good together, and I I couldn’t help but hope for the HEA they achieved despite a few bumps on the road.

Love…It’s Complicated by Jeannine Colette

This story was original and had a lot of realistic aspects when it came to divorce, life altering changes, infidelity and dealing with the other woman, having to deal with potential step parents, co-parenting, etc.

Melissa let her ex get away with way too much and she had a tendency to self sabotage her own happiness. William was so sweet, and could be romantic, very understanding, patient, caring and an all around good guy. I didnt like how Melissa made him out to be a villian and compared him to her ex all the time.

This was very low on the spice, but high in the reality and emotions. There were a lot of funny parts and I enjoyed the witty banter between Melissa and Will, and with Melissa and her friends. I was left wondering about Kent and Lacie though, so I’m thinking maybe more books to come and this will be a series perhaps.
