Jump into the second part of If You Want Me, the serial following the red-hot relationship of young interior designer Sandra Dane and Charles Magister, the billionaire uncle of her boyfriend. Forced to confront their desire for each other, Charles and Sandra now face an enormous challenge. The solution seems so simple--suppress their feelings and move on with their lives.
The only problem is, "simple" and "easy" aren't always the same thing...
*** The Best-Laid Plans… Sandra Dane’s got it all under control. She’s landed her dream job in Manhattan. She’s paying down her student loans and managing not to kill her roommate. And she’s dating her very own Prince Charming, the handsome heir to an Upper East Side dynasty. How could any girl ask for more?
Then she meets the man who sends her life completely off the rails, and shows her that having it all isn’t nearly enough.
A Heart of Ice… People speak Charles Magister's name in whispers. After pulling his family back from ruin, the infamous tycoon makes the world tremble before him. But it’s lonely at the top—since the death of his beloved wife, Charles has allowed no one to get close to him.
At least, not until a bewitching young woman walks into his life on his irresponsible nephew's arm.
From the moment they meet, Sandra Dane ignites him. Now Charles must wrestle with his duty, his conscience…and his deepest desires.
If You Want Me In this sizzling serial, Charles and Sandra know that their attraction can only lead to disaster. But somehow, the harder they fight it, the more irresistible it becomes…
Follow their story through thirteen novella-length episodes full of passion, intrigue, and secrets that refuse to stay behind closed doors. Episodes sometimes end on cliffhangers. For mature audiences only.
Part Two is now available for preorder and will be published on March 25, 2016. Exclusively on Amazon!

This second installment is set at a much faster pace with the unraveling of chemistry between the two characters. Was very easy to get absorbed in and the author did a great job of building the heat! However, after two installments, I admit to having a bit of a difficult time understanding the heroine - she's accepting of poor treatment by her boyfriend and seems somewhat passive and naïve, but with Charles she shows signs of independence, stubbornness, and sassiness. I'm not sure what is her true character yet but do look forward to reading more to find out.
Still not sure about the rhyme or reason behind the installments, almost like at each climatic moment one ends. In other series there have been themes or more purposeful reasons for segmenting the story - not sure I am getting enough meat in each of the books as they are divided now to understand the strategy behind not grouping them together more and consolidating into fewer books. Impatient already for the next one!

Wow, the story gets better and better!!!! Lots of twists, lots of changes and a sweet cliffhanger that is making me go out of my mind..... I need, really need to know what happens next!!!!! Still well written and still very well planned, the story line gets more and more interesting and is narrowing into a linear shape!!! The talent of the author is still very obvious as you feel every flutter of emotions from the characters as if you were there with them!!!! Still amazing and still addictive, i loved this one as much as i loved the first one!!!! So once again: Two Thumbs Up High In The Air With Blazing Lighters On!!!!!!!
This is #2 in the Magister Series. Now you don't want to read this book until you have read #1 in this series. This way you will understand the characters and events leading up to this book. With each page I read I am pulled further into the story of Sandra and Charles. There were some points in this book that tugged on my emotions. The way July Hall writes with both main characters POV's flow seamlessly. I find myself not being able to put my kindle down, almost like I will miss something if I do. I can not wait to read #3. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Another 5 amazing stars! I loved this book!!!! I don't think I can wait till April 8 for part 3. You get just enough to keep you wanting more. Loved the end.
