IF YOU WANT ME is an entertaining, catching and well-written contemporary short romance.Author Tara Mills gets us to the heart of the story from the beginning. Naomi is a lively and charming woman who recently broke up with her boyfriend. Ryan has always been in love with her but he preferred to back up when Naomi starts dating his friend Sam, the classic arrogant and self-confident guy to whom every woman is instantly attracted.When Naomi and Sam split up because of his infidelity and his behaviour, Ryan finally has the chance to prove how much they are meant for each other and the occasion arises unexpectedly and strangely.I enjoyed both the characters, especially Ryan. He is a perfect mix of masculinity, sweetness, kindness, gallantry and passion. Naomi, on the other hand, never convinced me completely. I liked some of her aspects, for example, her impulsiveness and her insecurity, but I think she hasn't been defined very well in all her characteristics. She definitely is less catching than Ryan.Having said that, this short story is an interesting and passionate reading. The interactions between the two main characters are hot, sweet and catching. Ryan's fierce attraction and strong feelings towards Naomi are palpable and I think this last aspect is the real IF YOU WANT ME strong point.Reviewed by Maria Cristinafor TheRomanceReviews.com
