Just One Taste

Just One Taste is book 4.5 in the Pine Mountain series.

I just love Kimberly Kincaid's Pine Mountain series and JUST ONE TASTE is the perfect addition to the series. Kat McMarrin loves living in the small town of Pine Mountain. Her father was a colonel in the army so while she was growing up, they moved every eighteen months. Three years ago she put down roots in Pine Mountain and has no plans to leave. She works as a physical therapist and lives in a multi unit apartment building. One day while she is returning from work, the activity around the apartment building looks like a bomb went off.

Jesse Oliver is Kat's neighbor. He has no family left in Pine Mountain and has just found out that the building isn't going to be cleaned up from the water main break for at least a month. He figures he is going to be living in the back of his car until his army buddy Gabe tells him about a lake house he has that Jesse can use. Little does he know, but Gabe's sister will also be using the lake house for a while too. Here is where things get very interesting!

My emotions were all over the place while reading JUST ONE TASTE. Jesse is so sure that Kat deserves better than him. He feels as if he can't give her what she deserves. He is an Afghanistan veteran and while in the army he was a medic. His unit gets hit by an IED and as a medic he can't save everyone. He feels like he let them down. Your heart will break for Jesse and what he endured in the war, but at the same time you will be cheering for him to let go of the past and be happy once again.

I was so excited to learn Kimberly Kincaid was finally going to give me Jesse's story! He is exactly the reason why I wish Pine Mountain was a real town so I could pack my bags and move there tomorrow. The small town feel of JUST ONE TASTE is so heart warming and you will feel as if all the townspeople are your friends and you've known them all your life. The way Jesse and Kat fight their mutual attraction for each other is going to tug at your heart and at the same time, will have you wanting to knock some sense into both of them. I can't wait to continue with this series.

SUMMARY

A little home improvement can go a long way…
 
Jesse Oliver was a medic in Afghanistan, but back home in Pine Mountain he’s happy to switch gears as the Double Shot bar’s new sous chef. When his apartment floods and his old Army buddy offers the family’s dilapidated lake house as temporary quarters, Jesse thinks a little remodeling on the creaky duplex sounds like a fair return favor. That’s before he sets eyes on the gorgeous woman moving into the other side of the cabin—and discovers she’s his buddy’s kid sister, a.k.a totally off limits.
 
Kat McMarrin has fought hard for her space, and she’s not too interested in sharing it. Of course, her job as a physical therapist means she won’t see much of Jesse, even if he’s a few thin floorboards away—unless she seeks him out. And with his sculpted body and slow-burn gaze, she might be tempted. Maybe the fixer-upper projects she has planned for the cabin will keep her mind off him. Or maybe her instincts to strip the place down will get out of hand…
