This is the long awaited and anticipated second book in the Temptation series and let me tell you – it was so worth it! From the hot cover (yes I constantly lick my screen when it appears) to the blurb antagonising my love button, I finally, FINALLY got my hands on the book and I was in instant Tate and Logan heaven again.Ella Frank has definitely, absolutely and amazingly raised the bar with this series and I am eternally grateful for hooking onto her writing from the very first with Exquisite, which coincidently the characters from that series are nicely brought into Take. I was giddy with excitement – this book was so freakin’ awesome!Ok how do I explain without giving the plot away, well I can’t but I can certainly say how much it affected me. Logan and Tate have firmly become entrenched as one of the (if not THE) best couples in m/m romance EVAH!Tate and Logan’s love affair continues but they have some major obstacles to overcome. This book sees then both tested to the max and needing to give and take.For Tate his biggest issue was with his family acceptance which was majorly exploded by his evil ex, Diane. I just could not comprehend how his close knit family could become what was to happen in this book. But for Tate he realises he cannot live his life for others, Logan is who makes him happy and how could he deny a life of that kind of happiness? Logan, however, is also overcome with self-doubt. Yes he wants Tate like no other but with Tate’s reluctance to make that final step he feels like he still has to hide which brings back the blackness that his past draped over him with the treatment he had back then. This resulted in Logan preferring casual sex which was easy to fall into but then everything changed on that night when he came face to face with the beautiful but straight man he now wants to have a life with.These guys are so darn hot it nearly blew my kindle up! Tate in his leather pants and straddling his bike, Logan with his suitporn and those oh so sexy glasses. The sexual tension and chemistry was off the charts hot and made for avid reading with a needed dose of ice cubes every flick of the page. Steamy-licious!In between all the family bigotry, damages from the past and the sensual interludes there was some laugh out loud moments from both Tate and Logan. I will never ever look at olive oil or nuts in the same way again without thinking of these guys.“You and nuts – in your coffee, on your ice cream – in your mouth…….” Rawr!I loved that they both had their bossy moments and Logan in boss mode was so swoon worthy and love button tingling, it was epic!“Get in the car and unzip your jeans. I’m f'ing hungry!” OMFG!The whole experience of this book was fabulous and amazing but the ending? Oh my, the ending was a total WTH? I actually shouted out ‘what?!!’ whilst on a packed train. I didn’t care about the looks though I just wanted the next book NOW.I had a major book hangover when I finished. In fact I went back and re-read it again. Three times. Now if that is not a good recommendation of how epic and fantastic this book is well I don’t know what is. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant and a mega FIVE STARS plus, plus, PLUS!
