Tell me a secret...well, here it is: I absolutely adore and love reading J. Daniel’s books. I know, I know it’s not much a secret since I practically look forward to every new release she has in store but let me tell you that she completely has me smitten for her newest release of What I Need.
If there is ever a man to be totally head over heels in love with then I cannot tell a lie because Officer CJ Tully has my heart fluttering with butterflies. As an avid romance reader, typically we tend to love the strong alpha male but I found CJ’s character to be refreshing. He was a mixture of alpha but mostly sweet. I love that CJ was one of the nice and sweet guys. So major kuddos for J.Daniels for showing some love to the nice guys.
I’m not thinking about anything besides his soft mouth and his rough hands and the scratch of his beard as it burns my skin and hopefully leaves evidence of tonight. Whatever happens, I want to remember this.”CJ hits it off with Reed’s baby sister, Riley during Reed and Beth’s wedding extravaganza. Reed’s weekend wedding turned into a hookup fest for CJ and Riley. Well after their hot weekend together, a hiccup and misunderstanding occurred that caused these two to keep their weekend fling a secret and that they should remain friends. Well let’s just say being in the friend zone is kinda hard especially when these two are wildly attracted to each other and have this special bond. So what happens when being friends become something more? Will Riley be able to tell her brother the truth of her relationship with CJ?
If I didn’t say it before, J. Daniels is an amazing author. She has this way of bringing life to her characters and in such these fictional characters feels like they are your new tribe of friends. Yes, the Alabama Summer gang are one of my favorite group of characters as they each bring their flavor and sass to the series. CJ and Riley’s relationship is just a reminder that the sweet and nice guys are the ones that everyone should be rooting for. You gotta love a man who makes you feel special, wanted and needed. So if you are looking for a love story that beautifully blends heart, friendship, passion, family and romance then look no further than this book.
