I Received An ARC Of This Book In Exchange For My Honest Review.This is the second book in the "Now" Series and it's Layla's story.  I'm a big fan of Emma and Cole's from the first book in the series but Layla and Ben blew them away.  I fell in love with these two and couldn't put their story down.Layla is harsh you could even say mean.  She has spunk and can be known for running her mouth.  She's easy and enjoys sex and has slept with lots of different men.  That all changed seven months ago after waking up next to some lawyer and doing the walk of shame.  Now Layla is starting to be noticed by the partners at the law firm she works at.While working a case she meets Chicago Investigator Ben Montrose.  Ben is an ex marine and a true Alpha male.  It doesn't take long to wrap up the case but that isn't the end for them.  Layla encounters Ben again when a mysterious one sentence letter shows up at her house sending her to the police station in a fit of concern.Ben and Layla are attracted to one another.  They enter into a four week deal that you know isn't gonna work out.  They are both demanding, bossy, and crude.  On these two people it's HOT and STEAMY.I think one of my favorite things about this book is the way that they don't fall right into bed with one another.  Don't get me wrong just because they don't have sex at the beginning doesn't mean they don't mess around cause believe me they do and those scenes are yummy.Brenda Rothert's second book floored me.  I look forward to the release of the third and final book in this trilogy.  I can't wait for more Layla and Ben.  I hope that the conclusion of the series also sees Emma and Layla's relationship restored.
