I didn’t know the story of Nicola and Cash before I read Sweet Girl. I knew of them from Savage Secrets, the only other Titan novel I’d read. But they were only mentioned briefly in a handful of places, so as I started reading Sweet Girl, I temporarily forgot who I was reading about. I got lost in a college romance between two childhood friends. Cristin Harber’s style of creating super steamy action-packed romances worked in this instance as well. There was far less action, but she still packed an emotional punch of conflict that was fun to watch unfold.PlotSweet Girl is well written with a believable storyline that never drags. Even though there are no Titan missions, there’s enough going on that I kept turning page after page. While I assumed there was a reason I was reading this backstory, I had no idea what was going to happen to them, so I was surprised by the ending. I’ve you’ve read the rest of the Titan novels, particularly Garrison’s Creed, you won’t be surprised. But I almost think it was better to read Sweet Girl first.CharactersI love the characters in this story. I wasn’t sure what to make of a cocky cowboy named Cash. He sounded like a stereotype, but I found myself soon rooting for him and Nicola. Nicola is sweet, befitting the nickname Cash gives to her. She’s so believable as the college co-ed in love with the boy next door who also happens to be her brother, Roman’s, best friend. Yet the events that transpire, forever changing the course of her life seem to fit with who she is. Roman is authentic as is the college quarterback with his eye on Nicola. Her fun and supportive roommates round out the cast of characters.Bottom LineI loved their story, even the heartbreaking ending. So much so, that I bought The Titan Series Boxed Set as soon as I finished Sweet Girl so I can find out what happens to them.DisclaimerI was provided a copy of this book by InkSlinger in exchange for an honest review.
