Summer Unplugged #8

The Girl with my Heart

Rate this book
Book 8 in the Summer Unplugged series. This is a full-length novel from Jace's point of view.

Due to the mild steamy scenes, this novel is classified as NEW ADULT and not YA/teen.

Jace has married the girl of his dreams and is now a father to the coolest kid he could have imagined. His life would be perfect if not for his job; the boss's new assistant has a stalker-like crush on him and his motocross clients are leaving left and right. Jace refuses to let Bayleigh know about his troubles because it would only worry her and that's the last thing the wants to do. Instead, he tries to protect her by keeping her in the dark as he enlists the help of his best friend and fellow motocross racer Nolan Park. They have a crazy new business idea, but once Bayleigh gets on board, it just might work.

*Mild steamy scenes, recommended for ages 16+

Love this

Bay and Jace are my favorite there love for one another is amazing. I wish Bay would trust Jace more than she does.

Natalie is a freaking physco i can't believe what one person can do to a family its absolutely ridiculous.

Can't wait for the next book.

It was nice seeing Jace’s point of view but I seriously can’t with the times Bayleigh was in it she is still so insecure. Bay is growing up, why is she still such an insecure character. Why can’t you just have her love herself for once. I’m just trying to commit and finish out the series. I had to take a break from in for a while because of how she wants Bay.

First of all, I love getting Jace’s POV. But omg, the emotional roller coaster this book had me in 😭

Poor Jace! Thank you, Amy, for bringing awareness to the fact that men get sexually assaulted too. Poor Bayleigh. The heartbreak she must have endured. I’m glad the book still had its happy ending. I hated Natalie so much!

Normally, I appreciate a change in POV so that I get a clearer picture of the characters. I just couldn't get in to this book though. So much drama. Not fun drama. Eye-roll-inducing drama. Reading Bayleigh through Jace' s eyes actually only made her more annoying than in previous books. It's hard to believe that Bayleigh really knows what love is if she really thinks that Jace's feelings are so tied to her physical appearance. I'm not saying I don't understand how depressing body changes can be after giving birth and I even understand irrational insecurities and overreactions. Hormonal changes can be brutal on a new mom's state of mind. The problem is that she has been flipping out over this same concern since book 2. It's way past old. And her total lack of trust in his ability to remain faithful to her doesn't say much for their relationship either. I'm just running out patience for this couple. When will they grow up a little? It just feels like they are playing house rather than acting like adults.

Was surprised that this one was from Jace's point of view (should have read the blurb). Bayleigh was back to being insecure though, and I felt sorry for Jace having to put up with his new assistant.
