HE’S PLAYING GAMES
Though Rylann Pierce tried to fight the sparks she felt for billionaire heir Kyle Rhodes the night they met, their sizzling chemistry was undeniable. But after being stood up on their first date, Rylann never expected to see him again. So when she finds herself face to face with Kyle in a courthouse nine years later, she’s stunned. More troubling to the beautiful Assistant U.S. Attorney is that she’s still wildly attracted to him.
BUT SHE’S MAKING THE RULES
Just released from prison, Kyle Rhodes isn’t thrilled to be the star witness in a high-profile criminal case—but when Rylann comes knocking at his door, he finds she may be the one lawyer he can’t say no to. Still as gorgeous and sharp-tongued as ever, she lays down the law: she doesn’t mix business with pleasure. But Kyle won’t give up on something he wants—and what he wants is the one woman he’s never forgotten. . .
Review
The newest book in Julie James’ FBI series is funny and incredibly sexy.
Kyle Rhodes, otherwise knows as the Twitter Terrorist, is finally free. His sentence had been shortened thanks to his sister helping the FBI against his knowledge. The day he goes to his final court appearance he is shocked to see a blast from his past sitting across the aisle at the US Attorneys table. Suddenly, having been inprisoned might not have been a bad thing at all.
Rylann Pierce is new in the US Attorney Chicago office and is immediately put on a case. She’s told it is a simple matter, but for her it is anything but simple. She will be seeing Kyle Rhodes again. Nine years after they shared a very hot kiss and then she never saw him again.
I love the attraction between Kyle and Rylann both the first time they meet and their second meeting nine years later. There is something magical about their connection from the beginning and nine years later they are still pulled toward one another, even if Rylann tries to fight it. Their relationship is sexy and romantic. I loved the way she finally realized he is what she’s been missing in her life and the way Rylann makes Kyle want to be a better man.
Kyle undergoes the most changes in the book and I loved the way his character evolves. In his sister’s book (A LOT LIKE LOVE) he is in prison and although he hates where he is there is still something fun and light about his character. In the beginning of About That Night he is still the funny and carefree Kyle, but as the book progresses he becomes more serious and focused on the future. This is definitely due to Rylann’s influence. He grows up during the book and really seems capable of committing himself to Rylann and their future.
I cannot wait till the next Julie James book. I’m hoping for one featuring Cade Morgan J
