I did like this one, although I liked Hugh and Sydney'due south book a little more than. It was interesting that Molly had been engaged to Carson so long (since they were young teens), and now she was fix to move their relationship to the next level, but worried that their relationship didn't have passion because she was a tomboy. She recruits Joaquin, a Spanish footballer (soccer outside of the US) to give her lessons in honey.

I did like this one, although I liked Hugh and Sydney'southward volume a little more. It was interesting that Molly had been engaged to Carson and then long (since they were immature teens), and now she was ready to movement their human relationship to the next level, but worried that their relationship didn't accept passion considering she was a tomboy. She recruits Joaquin, a Spanish footballer (soccer outside of the US) to give her lessons in love.

Joaquin always looked through Molly, mostly because she was the younger sister of his friend Lachlan. He's at loose ends because he can't play soccer anymore due to a congenital spine issue that could lead to him becoming paralyzed permanently if he keeps playing. Molly's request gives him a challenge that he needs to keep himself from going crazy. In the process, he finds that Molly is a sexy, vibrant adult female, and falls in love with her. The unfortunate office is he has to respect that she is committed to another human.

What I liked about this book:
*I liked the humor in the interactions between Molly and Joaquin and her brothers. It was funny how Joaquin would always deliberately call Carson 'Carter', because he was jealous of the man.
*The chemistry betwixt Molly and Joaquin was well-washed. The gradual building of attraction between them was believable as Joaquin started to see Molly with new optics. She wasn't like i of his easy pickups (since he was quite the ladies' human being).

What I didn't like as much:
*I didn't like how bossy and decision-making Joaquin's parents were. They had pretty much mapped out his hereafter. When he got over his soccer indulgence, they were determined that he settle down, marry the woman they wanted for him, and work in the family unit business. I recollect parents should support their children'southward dreams. I understood that Joaquin loved his parents, only I wish he'd but stand upwardly and tell them that he had his own goals for his life.
*In a mode I wish that Carson was in the book more. It would have been more interesting for him to be around and to be more of a real rival for Joaquin. He treated her similar an reconsideration, even after her makeover. I hoped that he'd get his own book, but that doesn't seem probable.
*I'one thousand not overly fond of makeover stories. I don't remember all people take to fit the same mold. Couldn't Molly be sexy even if she'due south tomboy and a mechanic? It'south prissy for people to see the natural dazzler that y'all have before you go a makeover. I'm not sure that Joaquin really saw that in her. And Molly's brothers weren't much better. They were kind of dismissive of Molly'due south attractions pre-makeover. I'thou certain that were men who idea Molly was the bee's knees before she got made over.

Sigh. I'm sure I'm over-thinking things, but that'south just my MO, I gauge.

All in all, this was a diverting, enjoyable read. I notwithstanding need to read Lachlan's story: McGillivray'due south Mistress.

This review has been subconscious because it contains spoilers. To view it, click hither. Molly McGillivray has been engaged to Carson Sawyer for nigh 17 years, and they even so oasis't had sexual activity nor set a appointment for their wedding. Deciding it was time to learn how to seduce her fiancee and finally get him excited about their future together, Molly asks Joaquin Santiago, ex-soccer player and rakish playboy, for some lessons on seduction. Joaquin, who is still recovering from learning he tin can never play his love sport again and suffering from boredom in the concurrently, agrees. Together th Molly McGillivray has been engaged to Carson Sawyer for nearly 17 years, and they still oasis't had sex nor prepare a date for their nuptials. Deciding it was time to learn how to seduce her fiancee and finally get him excited about their hereafter together, Molly asks Joaquin Santiago, ex-soccer actor and rakish playboy, for some lessons on seduction. Joaquin, who is however recovering from learning he can never play his beloved sport over again and suffering from boredom in the meantime, agrees. Together they make Molly over to uncover the stunning she is and have their lessons...though some were non quite planned out. Molly has to constantly remind herself that she is engaged to another human being - a reminder that Joaquin himself needs just as often. Merely Molly admits that she's never felt this way about Carson, merely can she reform a playboy like Joaquin?

This had a lot of miscommunicaiton malaise...which was good. Information technology felt very dramatic and angsty as both Molly and Joaquin love each other, but he believes she's still in honey and longing for Carson, while she believes Joaquin could never fall in dearest with her. If but they'd communicated, they could have avoided so much pain and heartache. Le sigh. This wasn't annoying about it though. So that part was good, but the ending needed a scrap more than punch to it. With all that angst, they only sort of came together so gently there at the stop, without really hashing it out. Also, Molly outright annoyed me with her bipolar moodswings. Ane minute she'due south reminding herself how much she's "supposed" to love Carson, then she'due south pissed that Joaquin won't take sex with her while she's still engaged to Carson and so she's all upset that he gives in and kisses her and tells him never to do it again. I was baffled that she had the gall to be pissed off with Joaquin'due south "misguided dignity" when he turns her downwardly for sex. HE at least remembers that she's still engaged. She had no business concern getting pissy with him. Joaquin I respected a lot more and felt horrible for him, what with Molly existence so wishy-washy about what she wanted.

Too, FYI - this is really low on steam cistron, with fade-to-black love scenes.

This book has a nicely different setting – the isle of Pelican Cay. Anne McAllister is great at putting across this location and it well-nigh becomes a supporting grapheme in the story. The theme of seduction runs strongly throughout the volume and as such it feels very erotic; the descriptions of kissing in particular are very effective and romantic.

The two central characters are stiff, with Molly proving to exist feisty, sexy heroine and Joaquin, the Spanish rogue, to be as full of the Latin spirit and desire as you'd hope and expect. McAllister incorporates some fun suspense in the grapheme of Molly's fiancée, leaving you never quite sure where she's going with this i. Only she lets her heroine off the hook for a traditionally happy ending that works, although the final few pages comprise a lot of twists and thus they do feel a lilliputian rushed.

I would have given this an extra star equally it was skilful all the way through until the ludicrous catastrophe. The concluding two pages spoiled the book.
