Review: Finally! Marisa's book!!!
Rating: 4 out of 5

I've read all 3 in the series, and although book 1 is still my fav, I really liked this book. The author has a quirky/dirty sense of humor and I love it! We've been introduced to these characters previously so it was nice to get their full story. One thing that I really did like about the way the author handled the series was that the stories were that books 2 and 3 were set at the same time. What I mean by that is that things were mentioned like Caleb professing his love for Judith during the auction in a present tense. I doubt I'm explaining this easily, but basically I liked that Caleb & Judith's story was basically going on at the same time as Marisa and Luke's. (ok I give up trying to explain, I'm just over complicating it!) Let just say, I like the author's style.In this book we follow Marisa (whom I loved in book 1) as she's trying to deal with the fact that her best friend has married the best friend of her boss, a man she can't stand because of his need for rules and order. Things that Marisa's never been really good at. She may not like his rules, but she likes looking at him.Luke doesn't understand Marisa. He doesn't particularly want to. He wants to do his obligatory dance with her (as a member of the wedding party) and be done with it. She tests his patience with her rule breaking emails, her rule breaking outfits, and her general wild ways. After she pushes, and pushes, and pushes his buttons he reacts and kisses her. It just snowballs from there.I have to say I was really happy with the way Marisa's story panned out. I liked that she proved him wrong. I liked that she showed she was more than a pretty face. I liked that she was the one person who didn't look at him differently. There were a few times I cringed at what Luke said to her, but he finally redeemed himself. I'll definitely read the authors work again. She never fails to entertain. If this is the 1st book you've stumbled on of hers, I recommend checking out Talking Dirty to the CEO (Book 1). You'll be laughing your ass off before you're even done with the 1st page.
