Romance Contemporary

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!

SUMMARY

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
