Review: Hold Me Now by J.H. Croix

Hold Me Now by J.H. Croix
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received this free eARC novel from the author and Wildfire Marketing Solutions.  This is my honest review. 

Oh, Russell and Paisley.  Since we met them in the first book, I was anticipating a steamy and tense storyline with these two, and this book did not disappoint!  I love how much they both fought their attraction, and denied til they were blue in the face about their disdain toward one another for most of the novel.  And when they finally couldn't handle the tension anymore, sparks ignited between these two!

I think Paisley is extremely smart in a lot of decisions when it comes to her arrangement with Russell, and I appreciate that 100%.  She wasn't sugar coating it or trying to pretend the issues weren't there, but dealt with it - mind you in a sneaky type of way, but she was thinking ahead and I love to see that in a character. 

I love that Russell cooks and I love his intensity.  I think he could have opened up a little more with Paisley and not kept everything in, but that's somewhat typical for a male lead character, so it didn't annoy me too much. 

I also enjoyed the cross overs from other series by J.H. Croix - now that I've read quite a few of her novels (still have a bunch to catch up on though!). 

This was a great novel and I can't wait for the next one!
