Madison Daniels has worshipped her brother's best friend since they were kids. Everyone thinks she and Chase Gamble would make the perfect couple, but there are two major flaws in their logic. 1) Chase has sworn off relationships of any kind, and 2) after blurring the line between friends and lovers for one night four years ago, they can't stop bickering.

Forced together for her brother's wedding getaway, Chase and Madison decide to call a truce for the happy couple. Except all bets are off when they're forced to shack up in a tacky 70's honeymoon suite and survive a multitude of "accidents" as the family tries to prove their "spark" can be used than for more than fighting. That is, if they don't strangle each other first…


I have enjoyed every J Lynn/Jennifer L. Armentrout books and this one was no exception as I loved it!

I'm not a huge fan of the cover as I think it looks like the book is erotic but that's not true so it could be a little misleading for some readers. I prefer the older covers for the series as I felt that they fit the book better than this one does.

This was such a great book which I enjoyed every minute of and the only complaint (if you can call it that) is that it wasn't long enough as I just wanted to continue o read Chase and Maddie's story. I loved that some of the situations and the things they came out with had me laughing as it made it more realistic and addicting. It was great to know what both parties was thinking as we got a better understanding of each of them although at times it made me want to bang their heads together. They had great chemistry together and it was great to see how their feeling grew through out the book. I love love loved the ending it was so sweet it was the best way to end the story. With the next books being about Chase's brothers I have a feeling we might just get to see a glimmer of these two (here's hoping)

I loved these two characters as they where both so funny especially when they where in the same room. Maddie was a great character who was very fiery but she also had a vulnerable side to her which I think Chase brought out in her but this did make her a more relatable character. Chase had a lot of issues that he needed sorting out as a result of his childhood but I still loved him. I loved all the other characters in this book especially the other two Gamble brothers can't wait to find out more about them.

Overall I loved every minute of this book and I can't wait to read the next book.
