I received an ARC of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.When Andrea sent me a copy of this book I was really excited to read it because I enjoyed Be Here Now. Two weeks was great! I loved these characters; I found the storyline to be unique and emotional.Ally is back home in small town Red Lake for a family reunion. After leaving for college and moving to Boston she has not looked back and is not happy to be there! She’s got everything going for her back in Boston, a great job, good friends and is about to move in with her long term boyfriend. She just has to get through a few days back at home. But everything changes with one phone call; Ally’s world is turned upside down. Not wanting to face reality quite yet she decides to take some vacation time and spend the next two weeks in Red Lake.Jackson is your all American hometown hero. High school football star off to college with a full ride and prospects for the NFL. After a series of unfortunate events Jackson dreams all come crashing down and he finds himself living in his childhood home all alone. He fills his time training and fighting in a local amateur MMA fighting ring.These two bump into each other at a local Red Lake bar and it isn’t a pleasant experience, but never the less the sparks fly! They decide to spend Ally’s two week vacation together, no strings attached (yeah right!).  I really loved these two together. I especially loved Jackson! After all of the loss he has endured he could have a really chip on his shoulder but instead he is such a sweetie!  I loved getting inside Jackson’s head and the dichotomy of tough MMA fighter and emotional vulnerability. These two were super-hot together and at one point in the book the tears were a flowing!! Oh and I must add the fact that this book has a HEA and a great epilogue (how I love a good epilogue)!!  The one thing I would have liked to have seen was a confrontation with Max.Thanks so much to Andrea for the opportunity to read this book!
