COME TO ME RECKLESSLY is the third book in the Closer
to You series by
A.L. Jackson. As my first book by this author, I found
that this could be read
nicely as a standalone. However with Christopher's
brother, Aly and her
husband, Jared playing significant parts in this book, it
would be better to
read the series in order.
Samantha Schultz has a nice life. She had graduated from
school and is now
actively pursuing her dream job as a teacher. She
currently lives with her
boyfriend Ben but despite all that, Samantha feels like
something is missing
from her life. She isn't happy. All this is because her
heart lies somewhere
else with a man named Christopher Moore.
After years of not seeing each other, the Moores come back
into Samantha's
life like an all-consuming wave. While Samantha's reunion
with Aly goes well,
it's seeing Christopher face to face that brings back all
the memories.
True to the genre's style, Jackson encompasses angst and
emotion in a well
thought out story. Samantha's character was the driving
force of the story.
With the emphasis on her brother and her sickness, there
is a whole lot of
heart in this novel, setting it above others of its class.
I think my favorite
thing about this book is that Jackson makes Samantha and
Christopher very
mature for their age, which as a result makes them very
relatable. A.L.
Jackson is a master at capturing the heart of her
characters.
From the New York Times bestselling author of Come to Me
Softly, another irresistible new adult
romance in the Closer to You Series.
His heart was turned off…
Until she turned him on….
Christopher Moore gave up on the idea of love years ago.
Now, his life is an endless string of
parties and an even longer string of girls. Enjoying the
physical perks with none of the
emotional mess, he’s convinced everyone that he’s
satisfied—everyone but himself.
Samantha Schultz has moved on with her life. Finishing her
student teaching and living with her
boyfriend, she’s deluded herself into believing she’s
content. But there is one boy she never
forgot—her first love—and she keeps the memory of him
locked
up tight. She will never allow any
man to break her the way Christopher did.
When Christopher’s sister and her family move into a new
neighborhood, Christopher is completely
unprepared to find Samantha living at the end of the
street.
Memories and unspent desires put
them on collision course of sex, lies, and lust. But when
guilt and fear send Samantha running,
Christopher will have to fight for what has always been
his.
