Synopsis:
I Know You Want Me…
One last hookup. At least that's what graphic designer Jenna Cho has in mind when she texts her toxic-in-life but amazing-in-bed ex, Jax. When her gorgeous boss Jack responds to the booty call instead, Jenna learns exactly why a girl should never hit send after one too many vodka sodas. Still, faced with Jack's sexy grin and even sexier Irish accent, Jenna thinks maybe she messaged the right man after all—especially when he admits he's been hoping she'd make the first move…
My Review:
Texting Under the Influence by Cara LockwoodMy rating: 3.5 of 5 stars
Jenna decides to drunkenly text her ex-boyfriend Jax for one last booty call. Jax was a horrible boyfriend who repeatedly betrayed her, but was good looking and delivered in the sack. Jenna accidentally texts Jack, her hot boss who responds to her out of nowhere sexy text and shows up at her house. The accidental text leads Jenna to a steamy encounter with Jack who turns out to be a better man than Jax in pretty much every way. The catch is that he is scheduled to move back to Dublin and work in his family's business and Jenna finds herself getting more attached than she planned.
This was a pretty quick read, and Jenna was an easy character to root for. Jack was an even easier character to like since his one "flaw" was that he fell in love to easily. There were things that worked out a little too easily and Jack was a little too perfect. However, there was no denying the chemistry between Jenna and Jack, and the story was enjoyable. I liked these characters and wanted good things to happen to them. I would read more by this author in the future. 3.5 stars
