*fans self* I'm still kind of recovering from this one...
Bailey and Vaughn fought through the first book in this series and they fight through the first half of this one too. Here are two folks who have built their lives just how they like it and think the other person will destroy the carefully built castles of sand. Of course, we readers know better, and their happily ever after is as satisfying as you would hope.
This is Young's second series - the first set in Scotland - and it's settling into itself wonderfully. Her speciality is giant familial friend circles and that phenomenon that happens when you're a single adult when your friends become your whole life. I adore getting to know every one, the foreshadowing that happens so often and then the follow-ups to couples that follow. We get more time here with the couple from the first book and some serious breadcrumbs were laid for future installments.
If you like contemporary romances, Young is an author you should know, especially if you like them grounded in reality... with the exception of the sex, which is 100% delightful and raucous fantasy fulfillment. Bailey and Vaughn's athletic and adventurous turns are no exception.
I adored EVERY LITTLE THING, clearly, and totally recommend it.
Bailey Hartwell has many reasons to feel contentβher
successful
business, a close circle of friends, and her steady
boyfriendβ¦even if
their romance feels staid after ten years without a
serious
commitment. The only challenge in her life comes in the
form of sexy
businessman Vaughn Tremaine. She thinks the ex-New Yorker
acts
superior and that he considers her a small-town nobody.
But when
Baileyβs blindsided by a betrayal, sheβs shocked to
discover Vaughn
is actually a decent guy.
Vaughn admires Baileyβs free spirit, independence, and
loyalty. As
his passion for her has grown, his antagonism toward her
has only
worsened. Every little thing Bailey does seduces him. But
when
Vaughnβs painful emotional past makes him walk away in
fear he will
hurt her, it opens an old wound in Bailey, and she
uncharacteristically retreats.
Once Vaughn begins to realize heβs made the biggest
mistake of his
life, he has no choice but to fight like heβs never
fought before to
convince Bailey that the love theyβve found together only
comes
around once in a lifetimeβ¦.
