**originally posted at Bedroom Bookworms. See my profile for more information**Where to even start. I loved Frenched. I mean, LOVED. I felt like it was paced so well, so hot (the ice cube. You guys. THE. ICE. CUBE.) and I can’t stop thinking about Lucas. (Hence making him book boyfriend.) So when I found out that Melanie had another book coming out, I was practically salivating. But I was also a little bit apprehensive because..because.. well, what if she does something bad to my Lucas? You just never know. Maybe I should just stick with my memories of France and be happy with those.Oh, who am I kidding? I NEEDED MORE. Man, was I glad I did because it was delicious.I don’t know if I even want to give a review. Just go buy the book. Seriously. If you haven’t read Frenched yet, stop whatever it is you’re doing right now (including reading this!) and go one-click it. It’s so hot. I’m going to say it again. THE ICE CUBE. Just trust me. You’ll know when you get there.And while I don’t think that Yanked is *quite* as out-there as Frenched was, it’s still delicious. I didn’t know I could love Lucas any more, but it turns out – yep. I can. There’s a moment when he’s happy to see her that just sticks in my mind. It was a messed up moment, really. (NO SPOILERS) but somehow, it just brought tears to my eyes anyway.And then, there’s this window.. well… :fans self: holy cow. GO READ THE BOOK. Seriously. Go. Now. READ IT. It’s short. I read it in under 90 minutes, mostly on my breaks from work. And normally that makes a story seem incomplete to me, but Melanie pulled it off. It’s short in pages but long in story. Seriously, click it. NOW!Smut Factor: 5 stars- Had to wake my husband at 2am to quench my “need.”Character likability: 5 stars- He’s my book boyfriend and I want to BE her.Storytelling: 5 stars- I wake up thinking this really happened.Writing and editing quality: 5 stars- Excellent!
