ALWAYS IN
Author: M.R. Joseph

The Shore Series #2

~ SYNOPSIS ~

My name is Raphael Cruz. I was once a man made up of only flesh and bone. Never feeling, just existing. I indulged in the pleasures that others gave to me, and those I gave to them. That's all it was—pleasure. Physical pleasure. No emotions, no attachments. I didn't need all those feelings, didn't want them. There was no longing for love, no longing to let anyone in. Until I found her. And I gave in.

Harlow Hannum showed me what love was all about. I savored it and held it close, not even knowing I really wanted it in my life. She made me feel loved. She made me accept love. She taught me how to love in return. My heart was open to it all. My heart was hers. It belonged to her. But, she never knew. And then lies, deceit and betrayal forced me to lose the one thing that made me more than a man who just existed.

I should have told her I loved her when I had the chance. I should have told her I gave in to all the powers that love possess.

Will I ever have the chance to tell her? Will my past mistakes never give me that chance?

~~I was given this in exchange for an honest review~~

This is the second book in the series. I have to tell you that this one was frustrating to me. We have Harlow, who is awake from her injuries from being in a coma. SHe doens't know things that she use to, she doesnt' remember the love that she has with Cruz. She only knows him as a man whore and the one night stand that she had. She doesn't remember what happened to her. 

She starts back and work, and on the first day, a new teacher arrives. His name is David, he's from England. Harlow is immediately turned to mush. She is drawn to him, she feels like she is loved. Meanwhile, Cruz is trying everything he can to get her memory to jog, to get her to remember the love that they had together. When it becomes to much, Cruz gives up. 

This is a great book. I cried, I got pissed, I even yelled at my kindle because I felt really bad for Cruz. You need to read this book so you can see the great ending M.R. has written!!

The Shore Series #1

~ SYNOPSIS ~

Raphael Cruz doesn't do it. He just doesn't. Cruz doesn't fall in love. He's a "get in and get out" kind of guy. Ladies love him and fall all over him for his swoon worthy good looks and overwhelming sex appeal. He knows how to talk to them and tells them exactly what they want to hear. When he's done making them scream his name, he shows them straight to the door. The meaning of the word love doesn't exist in his world. But that could all change with a wink of a girl's eye... And one hot-as-hell romp in a bar bathroom.

Harlow Hannum is your typical girl-next-door. She has the brains, the beauty, and the money. What she doesn't have is the luxury of being someone's first choice in the game of love. She always comes in a distant second place, leaving her guarded with her feelings. Lies, betrayal, and secrets of her past follow her wherever she goes, no matter how hard she tries to hide them. That is until she's reunited with the one guy who can ignite the spark in her heart that's been extinguished for so long.

With sunny days, heated nights, and love lingering in the air in the beach town of Sandy Cove anything can happen. Especially when fate steps in for Harlow and Cruz. Will their blossoming friendship turn into unexpected love or will the collision of their opposing worlds be the end of what could have been?

~~I was gifted this book in exchange for an honest review~~

I love a great love story. This one is a great love story. 

Have you ever had a one night stand with a guy or girl that is hotter than hot, and that act took place in a very public bathroom? You thought to your self, eh, I'll NEVER see that person again-what the hell. But come to find out that one tryst, is friends with your friends and you see each other again a year later? 

Harlow is a very smart woman. She knows what she wants and she goes after it. Right now, all she wants is to relax and forget that the past year ever happened. Her friends love her and tease her about using incredibly big words when she speaks. Just as shes starting to relax, she runs into the last person that she wants to see, the mystery man from the one night stand last year. 
All Cruz wants to do is drink, have fun and find women. One night stands are all he is concerned with, no feelings no emotions, just wham bam thank you ma'am. But there is one thing that he can't get off of his mind, and he just so happened to pull her over for swerving. She is back in town and he starts to think about that night. 
She just wants to forget and have him leave her alone, he just wants to talk and give her a hard time. Can they live together? Can they become friends? Will they fall into bed with each other again?

M.R. Joseph writes with beauty and elegance. This is the first book that I have read by her, and it isn't going to be the last.
