Summary: Tabitha aka Tabby Cat shows up at Jason's apartment after two years of their relationship ending to seduce him into one more weekend of just physical sex with no strings attached. She does this on recommendation of her sister and her sister's boyfriend...a psychology professor, so that she can get him (Jason) out of her system for good. Jason agrees to the proposition and that's where the story begins.Possible spoilers:It was really just an ok story for me. The description of course was an interesting enough of an idea that I downloaded this book when it was offered for free. Why the story lost me was the constant questioning and doubting that these two characters battle within themselves....throughout the ENTIRE story. Not that doubts aren't realistic within a relationship...but in my opinion, and in my reading preference...I just don't want to read about characters in a romance who do it constantly. Tabitha being referred to as Tabby Cat (constantly) wasn't as endearing as it was annoying..maybe that has something to do with the fact that Tabitha is not the most likable character at the beginning when you read about the history of her personality. Jason is a likable hero and has a likable personality. I liked how they reconciled their romance...but one of Tabitha's decisions at the end of the book, regarding their relationship, frustrated me. I get how she was being supposedly selfless...but I was like, "come on...(groan)".Personally, I wouldn't recommend this to any of my fellow book-reading friends. It just isn't that memorable. But from reading the other 4/5 star reviews (only 3 when I am writing this review) those people really liked it...so this story can appeal to some, just not my cup of tea. It was easy for me to stop reading...I actually bought another title and read it before I came back to this one. I couldn't remember the title and scrolled through my covers and recognized the picture. (If that helps you make your decision.) This is not a horrible book....or a total waste of your time. I guess what I am trying to relay in my review is that this story could appeal to some, but if constant indecision between the characters is a deal breaker for you...then move on to another title in your TBR (to be read) pile.
