Rating: 4.5Nothing beats something short and sweet on a rainy afternoon, not to mention, the old familiar plot of ex-reuniting would simply add to the magic that I am concocting to make my afternoon more entertaining.It's old, but never have been lame. As I have always mentioned, I am a sucker for second chances. There is nothing great in this world than finding an old love whom you can never forget and once again rekindled a relationship you once thought was lost.Here's a hot ER doctor in scrubs who had received an unexpected Dear John letter before their supposedly happy ever after before entering med school. His love life was never the same again. He still goes on date, sleeps with women, but the contentment, the peace he has with his ex fiancee is still missing. He likes taking care of people, and do everything in his power to save their lives, just like he would have done to his brother who have died of cystic fibrosis years ago. His life centers on work, taking double shifts as long as his body can manage. He may have graduated on top of his class with Latin honors (which is quite impressive) and may have saved hundreds of life - but his life, is dull and empty.Jules Shaw loved to feed people. She cooks amazingly well, streetwise, tough and works harder than a construction worker. She can organize an event pretty well, and had the most wonderful ideas. But question is, can she work with her old flame Blake without him finding out why she left him eight years ago?When an event allowed them to work together, spark begins to fly. There was still magic between them. But would insecurities and deceit once again go in between them? Or would their love be finally be enough for their HEA?I may have felt a little frustrated with Jules for a while because insecurities still eats her even though she have come a long way after eight years, and considering that Blake is constantly assuring her. Blake on the other hand is just plain wonderful, and I like that he was honest about his feelings and was ready to act on it. He didn't hesitate to make a move and grasp for his happy ending.I love the Outside the Lines. I love that it is short, concise and yet still appealing.*ARC Copy was given in exchange for an honest review.
