I started Just Once late at night after finishing another book, thinking just one chapter! Six chapters later with drooping eyelids and the school run looming in just a few hours I had to force myself to switch my Kindle off.Julianna Keyes writes with ease and fluidity, imagining lives for her characters which are believable and a world which the reader would comfortable inhabit.Kate is definitely the wildcard but despite her initial aloofness and secretiveness she is a character we can easily engage with.Just Once is not without its drama as Julianna Keyes attempts to introduce several serious threads to the plot; Kate's 'story'; the money argument and video-gate, but in essence the focus is on Shane and Kate.The romance between the rancher and kitchen/cabin manager begins as hot and steamy 'just once' deal, with neither able to resist returning for more! The passion between them is fervent and Julianna Keyes' love scenes are, well . . . .WOW!Just Once is a book I could have returned to and read again immediately and I hope Julianna Keyes considers writing a sequel. A must for snuggling up with over winter!I received this as a review copy, but this has had no influence on my opinion.
