Friends and Lovers #2
Worth the Wait
“What the hell was that?” Mira asked. She turned toward Neil.
“What are you talking about?” he asked.
“That kiss,” Mira answered. She looked at Neil with unblinking eyes.
“You demanded that I kiss you,” Neil defended.
“Yeah, but that was…well, more than... I thought you hadn’t done that in a while,” Mira remarked in an accusatory tone.
“I haven’t.”
“You certainly don’t seem out of practice,” she drawled.
“You mentioned your ex; I thought you wanted it to be believable.” Neil shrugged.
“Well…mission accomplished,” Mira muttered loudly.
“Does that mean you liked it?” Neil asked her.
“What kind of question is that?” Mira countered with a startled look.
“A simple yes or no question, Mira,” Neil said.
Neil moved closer to Mira. He wanted to kiss her again. He wanted more of her sweet flavor and, he wanted her to know that he wanted it.
“Neil…,” Mira started.
“Yes or no, Mira? Did you enjoy the kiss?” Neil leaned in close and spoke in Mira’s ear. His voice had gone very deep. “I did, Mira. And, I'm going to do it again.”
Miracle Childe has been in a self-imposed dry spell for three years. Three Long Years. Did she say dry spell? Make that a drought. No men, no dating, no sex. After a failed marriage and with no real interest in any man, Mira figured that also meant no worries. The celibate life was going just peachy until she started hanging out with Neil Reynolds. Neil is the gorgeous brother of a friend, and as a fellow celibate, he should be the ideal companion. But when an unexpected kiss causes sparks to fly between them the very first night they go out, Mira isn’t sure what to do. What starts off simple, quickly becomes too complicated for Mira. When long suppressed urges battle for control and old fears rear their ugly heads, will the heat prove too much for Mira to handle or will Neil succeed in convincing her to give what might be blooming between them a chance?

Pretty good story
There were some typo's in this book. A better proof reader would work. The story itself was good. I did however get confused about something. In the beginning of the book it said Nick was the older brother, but 1/2 way through it flipped. There were a few other instances of the same things. Some times it seemed like 2 different people were writing this book

Does not meet the friends to lovers criteria.
3.25 stars. This story was well written, the author did a really good job and I liked that she had the couple from the previous story make cameo appearances in this story. Nick and Jay from the previous story had been each others best friend for years and the story around their acknowledging their love was a joyous read. Neil Reynolds and Miracle "Mira" Childe are casual acquaintances who start dating and fall in love. Mira did have issues and I think the author softened her compared to how she came off in the first book-it was like she was a different character. I enjoyed this read, but this is a boy meets girl, boy looses girl until girl comes to her senses story and not a friends to lovers story.

Great series
The Love scenes are great. The Love story is good and my favorite is that you don't need to have read the first book. I read these books out of order (not intentionally). My favorite is the book 3 Always and only you. Maybe because I read it first. Good job Ms. Riley!
