I thought that this first book in the Just Sat Yes Series, was pretty darn good. Zoey is trying to get herself back on track, after a rough childhood and adolescence, but still suffers from nightmares and insomnia. Her family and friends are trying to help her move on from her depression, but nothing helps, nothing that is until Andy Tate moves to town and shakes up her life.“Holy s***, he is sexy. Had a gorgeous golden skin, amazing blue eyes, and he wore his short, dark blond hair a little longer on the top. He was tall, too, at least six foot two or three. And the beard! Oh my. We, it wasn’t really a beard, but more like a sexy stublle that was just long enough to be soft.”In this very realistic portrayal of a budding romance, I love the way the author leaves little morsels of foreshadowing throughout the book. Did I mention this is the first in the series? Be prepared to want to find the next book immediately. Zoey is just about to breakthrough to peace and happiness when the book abruptly ends.Intermingled throughout the story is the ex-husband Rob, who is constantly antagonizing Zoey and Andy.“Zoey, you really don’t see how beautiful you are, inside and out. Look at everything you’ve done for me, without even knowing me. Who does that? You are a smart, sexy as hell, and you need to try to realize it. Stop letting that a****** bring you down.”Finally, we find Zoey realizes she has a great man, a great life and then we are left hanging when the author ends with a bomb!“My walls were down, I was tired of being weak, and tired of being alone. The perfect man was right there with me, and I was being a complete idiot by pushing him away, Right then, I knew without a doubt, I was falling in love with him. I wanted to tell him, but I was terrified.”I really enjoyed this book. It was a quick easy read with tons of chemistry between Andy and Zoey. I most definitely will read more of the series and this author!Lisa
