Synopsis:

I was in love with the boy. I’m obsessed with the man.

Logan is my older brother’s best friend.

My teenage years were spent dreaming about our future together.

He taught me how to kiss. He stayed up late with me while I studied. He escorted me to the prom.

But he is one of the Screw Crew and they only have one rule. I’m off limits.

I went to college and he started working. The secret messages stopped and I lost my first love before it even had a chance.

I’ve spent the past four years trying to forget the only man I’ll ever love. Just as I start to make a life for myself, guess who comes barging back into my life?

This is Logan West & Mia Daniels story. ~ Book 2 in the Enemies To Lovers Series

This is a Stand Alone book with a HEA and no cliffhanger in the Enemies To Lovers Series. Each book in the series is about a different couple. To get the full experience of their friendship I’d recommend that you start with Heartless.

My Review:

Reckless by Michelle Heard (Horst)

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars to Reckless book two in the Enemies To Lovers series by author Michelle Heard (Horst).

Even more intense and angsty than the previous book in this series, Reckless had my heart beating erratically and my stomach full of butterflies. Not the good kind of butterflies. More like there was a hornet’s nest inside my stomach. This book wrecked me. Oh. My. God! Sadly I can’t even tell you why. That would be spoiling this fantastic book for you and I won’t do that. While some of the plot is predictable, there were also a couple of surprises. Seriously, I don’t think my heart can take much more. That said, Jaxson and Mia have an amazing HEA. However, there is a cliffhanger of sorts regarding Marcus that will leave you anxious for the next book. I mean, seriously, I need that book. I need it now! Actually the next book isn’t Marcus’ story so that leads me to wonder how long I have to wait for his HEA. Total book hangover here!

Jaxson is one of Mia’s older brother’s best friends. He is about four years older. Of course, Mia is totally off limits due to the fact she is Rhett’s little sister. Still, being off limits doesn’t stop either of their feelings for each other from growing. Sadly, Mia and Jaxson aren’t aware of the other’s feelings.

Forward four years later. Mia is going through some emotional times. She feels abandoned and alienated from her family. Of course if I even hint at what is going on, it will spoil this book for you. Though I can definitely say how much I loved it when Mia and Jaxson finally see each other again after so many years.

Once Jaxson learns that Mia has feelings for him, all bets are off. He will do what is necessary to make her his. Getting Rhett’s approval might be difficult but Jaxson won’t give up.

While Mia and Jaxon are sorting through their feelings, trying to form a relationship, something dark is going on. Something, heartbreakingly emotional. An aspect I am loving about this series is just when you think things are falling into place, something happens that changes your focus completely. I loved the roller coaster of emotions I experienced in reading this book, this series thus far. All I can say is I need next book badly. I will literally stop what I’m currently reading when Careless hits my Kindle. That said, I recommend this series highly. I’m sure you will have mixed feelings as I did but when you look at the whole picture, you will be more than satisfied.

This is my honest and unbiased opinion. Thank you for taking the time to read it. 🙂
