*****4.5 Stars*****
Ever since reading book one in the series, Accidentally Hers, I've been curious to know more about the elusive manwhore, Trip Lexington. I knew their must be more to the story about why he was such a player and I was right. In this book, we learn that Trip has a vulnerable sweet side and Jamie Beck did an amazing job with Trip's backstory and the reasons why he has such a careless demeanor. I loved Trip in the first book but I loved him even more after his sweet vulnerable side is revealed. He tries to hide this secret side of him, but Kelsey sees the real him. There are many different facets of this book - family drama, great friendships, and most importantly, romance.
For reasons in his past, Trip is known as the ultimate manwhore and doesn't believe in marriage and settling down. Kelsey is the complete opposite. She is ready for the whole package: marriage, the 2.5 kids and the white picket fence. At times she comes off as completely desperate so when Trip strikes up a deal with her she jumps on it. They start up a friends with benefits relationship and in exchange Trip will give her the perfect tips to land herself a husband. But when Kelsey calls it quits after meeting a man she thinks could share her dreams of marriage and kids and the man happens to be Trip's estranged half brother he has to figure out if the feelings he has are due to sibling rivalry or jealousy and love.
I loved this book and the only reason why it isn't receiving 5 stars is because it took me a little bit to actually get myself into it but once I did I could not put it down! I loved this series and I hope the author does a few more books for some of the side characters, like Kelsey's best friend Emma. I look forward to reading more from the author.
