Review: A good balance of funny and teary moments
Rating: 4 out of 5

I liked this almost as well as the first one, but Jay can't quite compete with Teague's awesomeness.Melanie was kind of immature and annoying in Kiss This, but she's grown up a lot in this one and I loved her.  Determined to own up to all her faults/mistakes and make a good life for her and her child.  She and Jay have a great bantering relationship, Melanie wishes it were more, but she is never pushy/clingy/pouty.  I wished there were more of her relationship with her sister, Cam, but Cam was barely in the book at all.Jay is one of those "you're too good for me" kind of guys and it's one of the plot devices I really dislike (although not as much as the virgin and the manwhore).  Fortunately, it wasn't too bad in this case, and really, Melanie is too good for Jay at first.  He has anger issues, is way too blunt, and his "everyone is pushing their agenda on me" attitude is grating.  But eventually he pulls his head out of his butt.As in the first book, there are several laugh out loud moments, which balances the teary moments nicely.  I do wish Melanie giving birth had been included, Jay and Melanie in the delivery room could have been a great scene.  Teague was in this book some (yay!) and there is a new character, Tyse, that I really liked.  Looking forward to his book next.
