Romance

In STAY WITH ME, the third instalment in the Wait For You series by Jennifer L. Armentrout, the twenty-one year old Calla finds herself in a very tough predicament. All her money for school is gone and there is no one else to blame but her mother. So when Calla hunts her down at her bar to not find her there, but a six-foot god named Jackson James, the inexperienced and naรฏve Calla doesn't know how to react.

One of Armentrout's greatest strengths as a writer is that she is able to capture the young mind perfectly. With humor and charm, her characters often come across as endearing and relatable, making them fun characters to read about. Calla is one of those softer characters who feels a little over her head when put in the situations she is in, which in turn shows her inexperience and therefore growth at the end of the book. The one problem I had with her is that her narrative sometimes dragged on for too long and several phrases she used made her seem much younger than her age. Calla seemed more suited to a Young Adult book than a New Adult one.

Jax, as I said, is quite the catch. He's charming, sweet and has a great sense of humor. He's by far the more experienced of the two so when put together, I do believe they balance each other out well. That being said, Calla's inexperience makes it a little surprising with how sexy this book is.

STAY WITH ME melds the excitement of young love and the heart of real life into a sweet, yet sexy story. Armentrout definitely captures the art of the young mind perfectly.

SUMMARY

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wait for You and Be with Me comes a daring tale that pushes boundaries . . . At 21, Calla hasn't done a lot of things. Sheโ€™s never been kissed, never seen the ocean, never gone to an amusement park. But growing up, she witnessed some things no child ever should. She still carries the physical and emotional scars of living with a strung-out mother, Monaโ€” secrets she keeps from everyone, including her close circle of college friends. But the safe cocoon Calla has carefully built is shattered when she discovers her mom has stolen her college money and run up a huge credit card debt in her name. Now, Calla has to go back to the small town she thought shed left behind and clean up her momโ€™s mess again. Of course, when she arrives at her motherโ€™s bar, Mona is nowhere to be found. Instead, six feet of hotness named Jackson James is pouring drinks and keeping the place humming. Sexy and intense, Jax is in Callaโ€™s business from they moment they meet, giving her a job and helping her search for Mona. And the way he looks at her makes it clear he wants to get horizontal . . . and maybe something more. Before Calla can let him get close, though, sheโ€™s got to deal with the pain of the pastโ€”and some very bad guys out to mess her up if she doesn't give them her mom.
