Need You for Keeps by Marina Adair
4.0
The book alternates between Shay and Jonah's POV which I really liked, it's not always that you can see book sides of a developing romance. I really liked both characters, Shay is a hardcore animal lover who would do anything to save a animal, Jonah is a Deputy who is trying to run for Sheriff who also seems to constantly get caught up in Shay's troubled. He even nicknamed her trouble which is really fitting. You can definitely feel the sexual tension leaping off the pages when Jonah and Shay come together and I rooted for them to get together.
The one thing I did not expect was the roller coaster of emotions I felt. I was sad when Shay describes how it feels to find one of her Fosters a home, you also feel happy because hello a furball just got a forever home. Anger was also a common emotion because dammit there were such bullies in this book and it was so frustrating that they didn't get what they deserve (well one of them kinda did). Shay was way too nice in this aspect, and while I know she did it to be the bigger person I feel like it didn't get her anywhere. This book also had a heaping of smut (which I actually don't read too much of in my books surprisingly) and it wasn't awkward or anything.
I do recommend this book as it's a quick read ( I read it in a couple of hours) and it just sort of lets your mind be at ease. If you are reading or just read a complex lengthy book and need a lighthearted book then this is your pal.
