As readers we often read books to escape the daily grind of our busy lives. And when we read romance novels, we are taken to place where we can escape and read a modern sexy version of fairytales whether it be prince charming, hot billionaire, bad boys, dominant alpha males, military heroes, bikers, and the list goes on... but if you really think about it, the realistic book boyfriends can be found in the simple sweet boy next door. And that book boyfriend is none other than Tessa Teevan's Jeremy Banks of Fusion.

I am a big big fan of Tessa and her alpha military heroes especially Knox Wellington. I thought there could be no one who can top him but I was wrong. JEREMY BANKS beats Knox hands down. Jeremy may not have the sexy smoldering appeal that we fell in love with Knox but he has the charisma, charm, humor, and heart of gold to steal your hearts. He is a man who can steal your heart and have you swooning with an "I love you." Jeremy Banks in not book boyfriend material...HE IS BOOK HUSBAND MATERIAL.

Jeremy Banks and his beautiful wife, Sierra were first introduced in Tessa Teevan's debut book, Ignite. In those few snippets of Jeremy and Sierra, I loved this couple. I remember messaging Tessa saying "OMG this couple is the cutest thing ever." And when she informed that she was finally going to write Jeremy and Sierra a book, I was over the moon ecstatic. Luckily, I was fortunate to beta read this couple and **ahem** bug Tessa for new updates on Fusion. And as I was reading weekly updates, this couple stole my heart. I was officially smitten with this couple. And I think Tessa can attest to that fact with our chat messages.

What made Fusion stood out for me, was how Tessa written and told their story. She made this book light, funny, raw, honest,playful and most importantly kept it true to Jeremy and Sierra's personality. I loved how Tessa didn't detract and kept the focused on them. This was indeed a story of growing up, falling in love, and staying in love. I'm not going to say this book is all hearts and flowers, but I will just say that Tessa Teevan was able to tug those emotional heartstrings that every relationship goes through from the good and bad.Tessa Teevan captured her readers hearts through her gorgeous prose and raw characters. If she wanted us to remember the Banks family, she did that and more.

The story of Jeremy and Sierra Banks was your feel good kind of book. The book that makes you believe what TRUE LOVE is all about. I loved getting swept away in their fairytale romance. Jeremy and Sierra were what you called your fated lovers and soul mates. From childhood best friends to lovers. I don't think I can do this book justice by rehashing and telling you what Fusion is about. But what I can tell you is that Tessa Teevan DELIVERED. She delivered a story that was sweet, raw, emotional, touching, playful, fun and sexy. She made readers fall in love with the boy who could have your hearts fluttering with his charming personality. This book made me laugh out loud, swooned, fall in love, and most importantly, it captured my heart. The reason why I fell in loved with the story was how real, fun, and raw this book was. Jeremy Banks may not be a super elite broody alpha male soldier, but instead he showed readers what it takes to fight for love through his words and actions. So if you are looking for a book that will holds your heart hostage, then be prepared to get spellbound in Tessa Teevan's phenomenal book, Fusion.

P.S. Tessa~hurry up with Ava's book because you are so cruel to leave your devoted readers with that ending.
