Christopher and Caroline met at a clinic where Christopher was going through physical therapy. Caroline was doing her internship at the clinic. The storyline was well developed and it pulled me in. This story flowed easily and the characters were well developed. I really enjoyed reading this story.

This is a well written book with strong likable characters and an interesting story line. The author brings Christopher and Caroline together , gives them a hot chemistry and weaves a story that had me turning the pages from start to finish. It moves quickly and fluidly and is an entertaining story.

It is hard when there are reasons why a relationship you want seems to be out of reach. Whether there are family dynamics or the threat of distance looming over the couple it tends to make for an emotional story. This was a strong emotional story with an engaging plot. The road to love when it is bumpy makes the outcome that much sweeter. This is a sweet read.

They were the right fit at the wrong time. What's a girl to do when pursing her Mr. Right, could have catastrophic results for more than her heart? Touching Me, Touching You is Holloway at her sauciest. She goes from sweetly alluring to heartstoppingly sexy and the result is irresistibly fascinating.

Caroline is about to graduate and become a licensed Physical Therapist. The last complication she needs is dating a patient who was born in England but lives in South Africa and is only there for business. However her and Christopher can't seem to resist each other and Christopher assures her that no one will find out. They become attached quickly to each other despite all the reasons it won't work.
Christopher is only there to close a business deal and keep his step mother from remaining in charge of shares of his company that he owns with his brother. Caroline could end up fired for dating a patient and is depended on by her roommate and friend Vanessa who is pretty much like family, the only other person she has that truly cares about her is her nana.
Christopher's acquisition of the company he is in the states to acquire is complicated by the fact that the scrupulous CEO is Vanessa's father and hurting him would hurt Vanessa which would hurt Caroline. Luckily things work out and he gets what he wants the company while keeping his stepmother out of power and his life and causing her to be broke after she tries blackmailing Caroline and getting her fired.
I really liked this book. I thought that Christopher and Caroline were an adorable couple and liked that they had immediate chemistry. Caroline was a strong female character and Christopher was a sweet swoon worthy book boyfriend. I loved Vanessa and I can't wait for her book in the series. I really think she deserves some good things coming her way. I was glad that Caroline went to Botswana at the end especially because she no longer had her grandmother or her job in the states. She deserved Christopher and they deserved a happy ending.

Ms. Taylor Holloway just has a way about her storylines and every well crafted word draws you in further. In her latest release, Touching Me, Touching You; you have the moral dilemma... should you or shouldn't you. What I, personally, like best about Ms. Holloway's work, is her ability to revisit old characters in previously published books. You know when you read a release and you don't want it to end, this is a way to catch up with past reads as well.

An internship is hard work, and that is just what Caroline puts in. The only issue is concentrating when a gorgeous patient is staring at you all the time. It is not easy to keep her mind from wandering to Christopher. He's there for a reason and it shouldn't even cross her mind, but oh boy does it. Can they give in to their desires and keep it a secret? Should they? What will happen when it's time for Christopher to move on, taking her heart with him? I am positive that all romance reader's (that love a side of drama) will adore this book as much as I have.

I received this ARC from the Bad Boy Update in exchange for my honest & voluntarily given opinion. I strongly encourage all romance junkies, like myself, to follow along as they find their HEA.

Holloway's books set in Austin, Texas, follow one another adding new starring charactors, while giving gliipses of the actors from her prior books. This book centers on Caroline, a physical therapist about to finish seven long year of study, doing her intern practice at the clinic attached to and owned by St. Vincent's. So we get to have appearances of Dr. Eric, the Doctors Koels, father and son, and Rosary is now planning a wedding to the senior Koels. This story centers on Caroline's attraction to patient Christopher and getting involved in the taboo of dating said patient. Turns out Christopher is a rich British expatriot residing in Botswanna, Africa, currently visiting Autin in an attempt to buy Helix, a large manufacturer of the devices Christopher and his brother need to run their software. This story is full of PTSD episodes, twists, turns, surprises, blackmail and revenge dealing! Starts slowly but ramps up fast! Just when you think everything is working out, the wicked stepmother comes out playing another scheme all along! Not to worry, this author always has a HEA, but what and how?

Caroline is finishing up her internship for her Physical Therapist degree when she sees Christopher from across the room. Unfortunately it's against policy to date patients so she does her best to keep her distance. Sometimes however you just have to bend some rules on order to find the love of your life. Christopher is on Austin while he is purchasing a company when he meets Caroline and even though he knows he should keep his distance since he will be leaving soon he just can't help but be drawn to Caroline. Their relationship is definitely wrought with unforeseen family drama as well as a forbidden element due to Caroline's job, but it is definitely worth all the struggle in the end when these two finally get their hea. We also get to catch up with Faith from the previous book in the series as well as learn more about Vanessa whose book comes next. This series has been fantastic and I can't wait to read what comes next! Fabulous writing I think this book may just be my new favorite.

[Sharon Moritz-rosenthal · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a fun story about two really great people who are very attracted but who come from very different worlds and she works for the company he gets Physical therapy at, mostly he is not her patient well until he is so there is an element of forbideness though technically it is not forbidden since she is also an intern.

Christopher is in the United States getting PT, he actually is from Botswana. Caroline is a PT intern which is how they meet. She was featured in the last book and now we et her story. They are both very different people and even in life goals very different. So it was fun watching them fall in love and manuever around the forbidden relationship and issues.

I did really enjoy it but the whole Botswana angle was kinda weird. I would have understood England but Africa, it was just so out there. I did enjoy the story and I like this authors writing so it was a fun easy read with some twists and turns along the way.

After a bad accident Christopher is having some PT he is on the last part of his PT when he sees Caroline across the room. He waits until he has a few sessions left before he approaches her. Caroline is an intern at the facility and knows if she goes out with him she is jeopardizing her career. Temptation is too much and she gives in. The have a great night together and she thinks that's all it'll be because he is supposed to leave town now that he is better. However some family business keeps him in town longer. Christopher is drawn to Caroline and doesn't want things to end so he asks her out again. When his step-mother came to town all sorts of drama happens and Caroline gets drawn into it. Will his step-mother cause Caroline to leave Christopher?

This is a great story that will captivate you from the first page to the last. The chemistry between them is scorching hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Overall it was a cute story about a “forbidden romance” between a PT student and her patient. The thing that knocked the stars down for me was the lack of research in certain things or how “dumb” the female MC was even though she was from a small town. She had been living in a big city for quite some time that she would’ve known more than she lets on that she does. Also the fact that the male MC takes her skiing in Vail. Okay, great place to go skiing but NOT in September! Vail in September has less than an inch of snow if any at all and is 65 degrees Fahrenheit on average. The author has the male main character say that there’s lots of snow to ski and that it’s 25 degrees Fahrenheit. A simple google search would’ve shown this information to be wrong as well as a fur coat being the best thing to keep someone warm in that weather. I live in Minnesota so I know winters and 25 degrees is pretty tame that wouldn’t require a fur coat and not everyone is approving of fur coats anymore!

Lots of little issues that really discouraged me from thoroughly enjoying this story.

Christopher is in the states on a limited time business trip working to buy his supplier to better his company and their mission. He just so happens to also need to further his physical therapy after a past accident.

Caroline is almost at graduation day as a doctor of physical therapy. She works at a clinic and is ethically bound not to have a personal relationship with anyone who is a patient there at the clinic, but she cannot help feeling something for Christopher.

These two are hot, steamy and have to roll with the punches. But sometimes you gotta do what Toto does and go Africa.

This story is sweet, cute, and full of roadblocks that make you frustrated, bring you tears or make you want to yell. But in the end things work out and thankfully without passport or working visa issues.

This was a fantastic drama filled love story from Taylor Holloway. Christopher is a patient of physical therapist Caroline. The attraction between Christopher and Caroline ignited and the passion burns bright. Touching Me, Touching You was an emotional, heartwarming story of a young woman trying to overcome her past and a young man attempting to buyout a company in the process a strong love ensues between an alpha hero and a sweet kind hearted heroine. This book was filled with heartache, a moral dilemma, family drama, hatred, extortion, passion, wit, and love. Taylor Holloway has a way of creating stories that are captivating and suck readers into these love stories with wonderful characters. I loved this book and I can’t wait to read Ian’s story.

Once again Taylor Holloway has written a book where the characters are so relatable that you feel like they are your friends.

This is the story of Christopher and Caroline There are so many reason why they shouldn't connect though he isn't actually her patient it is a grey area because he is a patient at the clinic where she is a therapist and apart from that they are from two totally different backgrounds he grew up in a castle she grew up in a trailer park But the attraction between them is off the charts and he undresses her with his eyes every time he sees her. Once again there will be plenty of trials and tribulations and some steamy hot scenes as these two try to find a working way to allow their emotions full reign. Will they get a HEA you will need to read to see.

ONE EXCITING EXPERIENCE!!!
Sizzling! Talk about hot, steamy and intense. Taylor came through again with this pulse racing, smooth flowing, smoldering storyline and engaging plot that brings this little gem to life spectacularly. The trials and tribulations, twists and turns, along with a few glitches and scrapes draw you in so deep you feel as though you're right there. Taylor brings all of your emotions into play so realistically it's easy to get swept away. The characters and scenes are written with such realism it makes a perfect backdrop for this amazing read. Incredible job Taylor, thanks for sharing this bad boy with us.

Just loved this romance read , Caroline and Christopher are great characters who have instant chemistry and attraction , only problem is that he's a patient so it makes him off limits to her , Christopher has other ideas and asks her out on a date even though he's leaving soon but he's honest and tells her about it ,she agrees and they end up spending the night together knowing that she won't see him again , or will she , a well written book with a good storyline and great main characters and side characters old and new , a definite must read and can't wait for Vanessa's book

Wow what an amazing sexy story about Caroline and Christopher. Christopher is a patient at the clinic when he spots her he wants her the attraction is immediate. Caroline is a physical therapist working at the clinic when she spots this gorgeous man staring at her, she’s instantly attracted to him but there’s a no dating the patient policy but Christopher isn’t her patient is he?. There’s only one problem and that Christopher is supposed to go back to Botswana very soon, so will Caroline throw caution to the wind and put everything on the line to start seeing Christopher?. This is a fantastic sexy story and I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.

[Julie Terra · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a cute story. It took a little bit longer for me to get into this story compared to the 1st one in the series but not a bad story. It’s about to who meet and feel like soul mates from the start but know their time is limited. They are both in different places littlerly they live in different countries but take advantage of the time they do have. It’s a story about their journey together and how they can ever make this work and do
They even want to or is this just a fling.

A Good Series To Get Lost Into To.
On the whole, Touching Me Touching You was a wonderful read. The storyline was well played out as the characters, Christopher, and Caroline had excellent chemistry and it came across as believable that the roommate, Vanessa suffered from a great trauma.
While this is part of a series, Lone Star Lovers -Season 2: Soulmates of St Vincent’s, Book 2, it’s fine to read as a stand alone.
Definitely recommending this book for your reading enjoyment and pleasure.
I am leaving this review for your consideration. Peace.

First let me state Taylor has never written a book I didn’t adore and love. Caroline is a physical therapist and she knows it’s a no no to date a patient at the clinic but Christopher isn’t technically her patient. These two characters you cant help but fall in love with! They are both good people but right people wrong time because Christopher has to go back to Africa. Your writing is impeccable Taylor Holloway is always a joy to read one of your books.

Great read! We met Caroline in the last book, as the heroines best friend. In this book we get to know her better, as well as her background. We meet Christopher in this book, where we learn he had a totally different background, but his family dynamic is still not a great one. We learn that no matter the money, all families are messed up. Ha! I am looking forward to reading the next book, Ian. This series had been great. The stories are well written, story lines are enjoyable, the characters are funny and great.

This is a steamy, forbidden romance between intern Caroline and patient Christopher. The plot is nothing new or surprising but the author's writing was able to catch my attention from the beginning and I grew attached to these characters and their journey with every page. Caroline and Christopher have an obvious attraction and sizzling chemistry. What an enjoyable, slow burn romance with enough drama, sweetness, great supporting characters, love, and a happy ending.

Needs an editor!

There are so many mistakes in this book! I don’t understand why these authors don’t have decent proof readers. If you can’t afford a professional to edit your work, try a school teacher looking to make some extra money, or look at your reviews and choose some people who are appalled by your grammar, inconsistencies, and easily avoidable mistakes.

When I look at all the 5 star reviews and comments like “well written” I can’t believe everyone is willing to overlook the numerous mistakes throughout this book. Are readers really this unintelligent?

[Pelusa Rivera · Rating 4 out of 5]

We have a forbidden love story and this is part of a series but can be read as a standalone. We meet Christopher who is in the US to get Physical therapy and that is where he meets Caroline. Caroline is interning to become a physical therapist and these two are yup you guessed it attracted to each other but as you can guess this is off limits for her. I enjoyed reading of them falling in love and trying not to be..

This is a story about Caroline who is a physical therapist and Christopher who is a patient. Technically not her patient but in the same clinic. He’s been making eyes at her and she’s watching and dreaming of him. The physical pull gets stronger and the attraction off the charts. These two come together like fireworks and make a wonderful couple but the timing maybe off. Will they get. HEA?

Christopher is only in Austin for a very specific amount of time. Still, the blonde physical therapist intern Caroline catches his eye.

They spark and connect. He’s a PT patient and she’s the intern.
They have great chemistry but Christopher actually lives in Botswana.
Permanently.
Will Caroline take the ultimate leap of faith and leave Austin?
