Vanessa McGregor lives by rules that are meant to keep
trouble at bay. However, when she goes to Hawaii to help
organize her best friend's wedding, she meets Jackson "Jax"
Maris, her best friend's brother who also happens to be a
MMA fighter and is trouble with a capital T.
In order to make full arrangement for their best friend and
sister's wedding, Jax and Vanessa have to pretend as if
they are the engaged couple. As time goes on, it seems
that only half the time they are pretending because the
chemistry between Vanessa and Jax is explosive and
combustible.
As my first book Maxwell, I wasn't aware that I'd be
jumping into a sweet romance full of laughter, sensuality
and rawness. However, I am so glad that I gave this book a
shot. With Maxwell's unique brand of writing, she had me
laughing out loud in some areas while making me fall in
love in others. As I mentioned before, the chemistry
between Vanessa and Jax is strong and palpable. Their
constant bickering and need to outdo the other was playful
and flirty, making it so easy to believe in the romance. I,
myself, was falling in love with Jax after each page. Fans
of Julie James will get a kick out of this series. With its
quick wit and playful banter, readers will sure enjoy every
page of this sensual book.
What was interesting about Vanessa's character in
particular was that she initially sets herself up to look
stern and uptight, but as the story goes on, you definitely
see another side to her. The story wouldn't be so
compelling if she wasn't willing to fight back with Jax. I
think that's what makes RULES OF ENTANGLEMENT so enjoyable.
You have
two characters who are very strong in their own rights. Put
them together and their minds clash, but Maxwell does it in
a highly entertaining way.
Fighting for love has never been more enjoyable. For a book
with a playful attitude, some raw sensuality and a hotter-
than-hell hero, do yourself a favor and pick up RULES OF
ENTANGLEMENT and prepare to fall in love!
District Attorney Vanessa MacGregor firmly believes that
structure and order are the stuff that dreams are made of.
Happiness can be planned—and it starts with the seven rules
she’s laid out for her future. But as she’s organizing her
best friend’s wedding in Hawaii, all of Vanessa’s best-laid
plans are about to meet their match in a wickedly hot MMA
fighter…
Jackson "Jax" Maris is focused on surfing, training, and
fighting. That is, until he opens up his big mouth and
finds himself having to pretend he’s engaged to his little
sister’s best friend, Vanessa. When they’re forced to share
a romantic bungalow, however, their little charade suddenly
takes a turn for the seriously sexy. And while Jax is
definitely not part of Vanessa’s long-term plan, he has
seven days—and seven naughty nights—to turn her seven-rule
plan upside down
