Taylor Cason is running from the past and wary of the future. Terrorized by abusive ex-boyfriend Michael, she’s hesitant to allow another athlete into her life, but University of Georgia running back Jack McGuiness refuses to take ‘no’ for an answer. When Michael finally catches up with her, though, Taylor will have to fight for her life before she can even begin to think about love.
I loved Down South Ditty! It was the perfect romance read over the holidays. I wish I could find my own Jack out in the real world. I enjoyed the story overall, especially the friendships the main characters had.It was also really fun to read about scenes taking place in certain restaurants or bars in Athens because it made it more real for me. I could picture the characters in those places. I only wish there were more books featuring Taylor and Jack so I could see what happens to them in the spring semester!
I really enjoyed this book! There was a lot of tension and enough action to keep it going. Jack's tendency to be controlling occasionally bothered me, but I like that he knew he was aware he was controlling and tried to balance himself. The ending was very surprising and seemed to come out of nowhere. I wish that there could have been more in the book related to the ending.
