Book: In The Mix
Author: Jacquelyn Ayres
Genre: Erotic/Romance/Humor
Synopsis
*** This book contains the GEGs! For those of you who don't understand that warning: GEGs= strong language. gut-busting LOL moments caused by best friends who check their maturity at the door when they're together, and impromptu Kegel exercises. This book does not come with batteries.
Though it can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading the series in order since all books will have a continuation of EVERYONE'S story. Enjoy! ***
CiCi O’Brien has a weapon of mass destruction—her mouth. It’s always loaded and ready to strike, whether the situation calls for laughter or a professional smartass. It’s been her strongest defense against unwanted feelings over the past fifteen years. If she acts like she doesn’t care, then she won’t, right?
Yeah . . . keep telling yourself that, Ceese!
Luckily for CiCi, she’s surrounded by friends and family who can easily see through her faΓ§ade. They (and the furballs she takes care of at work) are who enrich her life, have been the ones she’s needed. That is, until the day her life changed—when she grabbed it by the balls.
No, seriously . . . she grabbed him by the balls. Not kidding.
Kyle Cooper has it all. He’s smart, handsome, and a ninja (not really, but that’s what Mitch likes to call him). As vice president of Colton Technologies, he travels around the world with Mitch, bringing companies the latest innovations in automobile technology. At home, he’s a force to be reckoned with, always hanging out with his parents and sister or . . . working.
Oh.
Kyle Cooper does not have it all, and he’s ready for a change. He just isn’t sure where to begin. That is, until CiCi O’Brien walks into his office and grabs this bull by the . . . horns (wink), which causes a spark to ignite in both of them. Kyle embraces it. CiCi does everything, short of calling the fire department, to put it out. Who will prevail? And what will that win truly mean?
Review
Appearances can be deceiving, and that is the case with CiCi O'Brian.
She has the spirit of a brave fighter, a fantastic sense of humor and the ability to grab men by the balls (literally) and bring them to their knees. That is the CiCi she lets everyone sees.
On the inside, there's a broken woman, a woman who was taken advantaged of, used and who had to make a difficult decision, one that marked her deep and one that she regrets to this day.
She dates and enjoys male companionship but usually one night is all it takes to satisfy her hunger, that is until she meets Kyle Cooper.
Kyle is somewhat quiet and reserved and completely smitten by CiCi. Until this point work has been able to satisfy him and be his number one priority, but one he meets the outspoken and free spirited CiCi he will go to any lengths to break her barriers and show her what being loved and appreciated is all about, but most importantly, that she's not alone and that she can trust and depend on a man to love her and never leave her side.
Jacquelyn is an fan-freaking-tastic story teller, she pulls the reader into the story and won't let go until the last word has been spoken. She balances humor and laughs, with the drama and tears to make every story stand out from the rest. Her characters are full of life, they're relatable, they're the kind of people that you wouldn't mind spending time with.
A few times while reading this book I found myself thinking, "where the hell does she get all these one liners at," (there are plenty, and each one is funnier than the last) but then I just figured why ask why, in this case 'where' just enjoy the ride and keep laughing your ass off.
You will absolutely love this book, it can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend that you read the first one in the series, Under Contract, so you can get a better understanding of the characters.
Do yourself a favor and pick this book TODAY! You will not regret it, I can guarantee that.
Five very DING DING DING loud bells for Jacquelyn and In the Mix
Author Bio
I am a domestic engineer (born and raised in NJ) whose sole responsibility is to guide three young, impressionable kids into becoming phenomenal adults. This challenging yet rewarding work requires a lot of love (coffee), patience (wine), and determination (periodic exorcisms). I work this magic from the beautiful state of New Hampshire.
Before becoming a domestic goddess (not really), I spent over a decade in the medical field, where I wore more hats than the Queen.
I have loved the written word and the great escape it provides since I was a little girl. When I wasn't reading about people and the places they lived, I was creating my own characters and adventures.
Finding myself again through my writing in The Lost & Found Series, The One, and The GEG Series has been nothing short of a dream come true. Also, it makes people feel better when I laugh randomly or talk to myself, knowing it's my characters and not "the voices" . . . that would be creepy.
