Temptation

by Veronica Daye, Liliana Rhodes

“I don’t trust myself to not fall for you.” Jagger Myka spent our childhood bullying and teasing me. When he moved away five years ago I thought I’d never have to see him again. But I’m not that lucky. Not only is he back in my life, but he’s staying at my house. And as luck would have it, he’s insanely hot. Now despite how much I hate him, I can't get him out of my mind. Jagger is back to his old teasing, but this time it’s different. And as much as I hate to admit it, I like it. I’m falling in love with the one guy I swore I would always hate, but he has a secret that will break my heart. ***Temptation is a retelling of my novel Tease WITHOUT the stepbrother twist***

Wow! This is one of those books that once you start to read, there is absolutely no way you will want to put it down until you read the last word! The author has given us a tale that will not easily be forgotten as we are taken upon the paths of Sierra and Jagger. Nothing says love born from hate better than these two. Teased to the point of being hateful, by Jagger and his friend Dex, during her early school years, Sierra has no feeling but hate for them. But "bad luck" seems to follow Sierra every five years, and it always seems to be on the heels of Jagger. Will she ever be done with him? Or does she even want to be done? Jagger has always liked Sierra, even as a child, but he could never seem to "get it right". Now he has the chance to change that. Will he manage, or will he still come off as the bully?
A heart warming love story that will not only melt your heart, but perhaps even make it bleed a bit too. Love the characters, and the plot that is well written and easy to follow, and allows you to fall in love all over again.

Every 5 years luck would change. Jagger and Sierra have been childhood enemies- he and a friend would torment/pick on her for years then he moves for 5 years and he comes back changed and is trying to be a better person but she can't get past their past. I been through what Sierra when through with the bullying by the school boys not to mention my own neighbour that we were friends at one time turned into a bully so I felt for Sierra and when he left her was what I felt when I moved away from the bullies only to find new ones in the new place, Anyways I loved this story but it's almost like it's twin with the step brother topic and I read it as the same in this one. Jagger is referred to be her step brother but in a few sentences away that her stepfather is no blood relation to Jagger only his connection to her stepfather is he dated Jagger's mother before she uprooted Jagger and moved away. Anyways good story, sucked me right in and didn't let go until the HEA ending, told in both p.o.v.

I received this free book and this is my review.
This is a new author for me and I loved this book. The characters where heart warming and you feel for them. It seems there never in the same state of mind. There lives changes every 5 years. They start out in grade school and their life goes on from there. It's never just roses and they don't always get along but their love comes out in the end. I can't wait to read more from this author.
