Trauma doctor Luke Carson knows his sister-in-law, Janica Ellis, is all wrong for him. The straight-laced workaholic doctor thinks she's lazy and the quintessential party girl. That still doesn't keep him from showing up at her door in the middle of the night after a particularly hard night in the ER. He knows there can never be anything between them, but that doesn't stop him from craving her. Tired of always being the responsible one, Luke is about to unleash a little bit of his bad-boy side and has decided he's finally going to take what he wants, and he wants Janica. Janica Ellis has loved Luke Carson for a very long time. The artistic fashion designer knows she's not the kind of woman Luke goes for, but that doesn't stop her from dreaming about it. When she finally gets her chance with Luke, she tells herself she'll take what she can get. But the more time they spend together, the more Janica realizes that she wants more than just a few nights together. She wants forever. Now she only has to convince Luke that he wants the same thing too. I have waited for this book for five long years and I'm so thrilled Bella Andre decided to finally give us the sequel to Take Me that we have all been waiting for. LOVE ME picks up five years after Take Me ended and is as smoking hot, if not hotter, than its predecessor. Janica and Luke hike the heat up in an already hot summer. Getting a happily ever after for these two was a long time coming and I'm so glad they finally got one. Even though I thoroughly enjoyed the book, I felt it lacked in an strong connection outside the bedroom for the lead pair. Whereas Lily and Travis, from Take Me, had a great story which evolved outside of the bedroom, Janica and Luke's story seems to never come out of it. Had there been more of a connection outside of sex, I think this book would have been perfect. Regardless, LOVE ME is still a great read, especially if you're in the mood for something a little bit steamy. Plus you get the chance to catch up with some old favorites and see what they're up to, which is always a treat. Bella Andre fans will not be disappointed with this much anticipated sequel.

SUMMARY

It's been five years since Lily Ellis and Travis Carson got married and fell in love in TAKE ME....now it's finally time for Janica Ellis and Luke Carson to get their very own happy ending. If there's one thing that Janica Ellis is absolutely certain of, it's that she and Luke Carson are totally wrong for each other. She's a wild, artistic and outspoken fashion designer. He's a type A, workaholic trauma surgeon (who just happens to be sizzling hot and her brother-in-law!). But Janica is about to be proven wrong when opposites attract...in the sexiest possible way. After a life-changing night in the ER, Luke is desperate for escape - and relief from his personal demons. For five years he has fought his attraction to his sister-in-law, but when he's pushed too far, he can't fight it another second. He needs her. Desperately. He's spent his whole life doing the right thing. For one night, he's going to follow desire instead. Straight into Janica's arms. Janica can't believe Luke is finally at her front door...and that he's kissing her like he's been waiting his whole life to touch her. But even as their sensual connection deepens with every touch of skin on skin - and the man she always thought was such a good boy turns out to be sinfully, toe-curlingly bad between the sheets - Janica soon realizes she wants more than Luke's body. She wants his heart too. But what will Luke do when one night of extreme passion turns into an all or nothing proposition?
