I enjoyed this book about kiera and Jason who Used to watch each other from there bedroom windows.They became friends but they didn’t tell each other how they felt about each other.
Jason lefted because he found out that Kiera was getting married to one of his friends and she didn’t tell him but she didn’t get the chance to tell him that she broke of the wedding.She tried to call him but he left his phone in the house.
Jason moves to Daytona Florida to do NASCAR racing since his was the Champion getting drunk and to get his mind of Kiera.While Kiera stayed in New York.
The story lines are great and so is the chemistry between the main characters you get to see there ups and downs and the truth come out there are sad parts in book about kiera mother and father. But also like the other characters in the book who make you laugh and bring the book alive.
It a great read with some really steamy scenes and a HEA.

Starring Kiera Williams and Jason Cox
Tropes: Unrequited Love and second chances.
Oh no!! I immediately bought this book because I was so curious about Jason and Kiera when I read Stealing My Best Friend (a book I absolutely loved). I’m not gonna lie… after chapter 3 I had to start skimming because it was just Kiera and Jason pining after each other via inner monologue. No conversation between them had taken place… until, finally, chapter 10… via FaceTime!! They aren’t physically in the same room until chapter 15. I always wondered in the first book what kind of relationship they really had (if they were just flirting friends…. or if they actually had a sexual one)…. We finally find out in this chapter. Which means I wish they used chapters 1-14 to give us more of a back story. This is where this book began for me…. And I was getting anxious about the Romance aspect because we had 5 more chapters to go and an epilogue.
Okay, with that said… I’m not going to give up on Summer Brooks because Stealing My Best Friend was soooooo good!! And I am curious about Fallon and Simon (Jason’s brother). So I may buy that book after my review. I don’t know yet.
My star rating: 2 stars
Had a hard time getting into this book. Just not my cup of tea.
I received this ARC for an honest review and unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy the book like I thought I would. I was looking forward to seeing Jason and Kiera from Stealing My Best Friend. Felt disappointed that the author didn’t let us see how the relationship developed. No flashbacks to see how they met or them interacting in conversations. It just started with them apart and the reason why and then all of a sudden, they were together again. It seemed like these characters were different from the first book. They were immature and very whiny.
For example: Spoilers: Jason being depressed about Kiera getting married that he drinks before he drives in a race. Being a professional race car driver, this would never be allowed. When Kiera found out her mother was in hospice at her family home. She goes there to confront her father and see her mother and then she’s in her room and jumps on bed like a teenager in excitement when Jason calls her.
Also, it seemed like the author just added things in the book that didn’t even go with the story line and are unbelievable. For instance: Jason putting her airline ticket with his last name. The airline security checks the ticket with the driver’s license so she would have never been able to get on and then the gentleman on the airplane hitting on Kiera. What was that for? Just to make Jason jealous and see him even more immature. Things in this book just seemed so unrealistic. The hospital scene at the end, there is no way that this would have happened. He just woke up with a broken back and other injuries. I’m sorry but this book was not for me.
Heartbreak, love, and anger all mixed in this one book. This book will have you on your toys hoping Kiera and Jason get their stubbornness under control and just love each other.

The book was a quick drama-filled read and made me want to yell at the characters a few times because the story had a lot of twists and turns that had me inwardly screaming “no” and “why”… but it captivated me and kept me up all night long.
Summers books pull me in and keep me there until the last page is read. This book was no different. Jason and Kiera are two of my favorite characters that I have met from Summer’s books.
Definitely recommend for a quick, fun read.
This was my first book by this author. This series kept popping up in FB ads and other authors’ newsletters and I decided to give it a try. I binge read the first three books of the series (available at the time of review) after reading the first one to see if book one was a one off or if the author’s writing was consistently like book one. Though the stories are set in NYC, there are timing issues and phrases used that make me believe that the author may not have ever been to NYC. Other phrases used throughout the series, and the writing style in general, also lead me to believe the author is not from the US, though I had trouble finding actual author information to confirm that. This is not necessarily a bad thing, though it did pull me from the story a little bit. More noteworthy is the inconsistency between the books in the series. For instance, the engagement ring Vincent gives Emily in book one has an entirely different stone in the beginning of book two. Kiera’s father is referred to with two different names in book one, which was distracting and could have been caught in editing. The hot scenes are hot, but are not as engaging as they could be. In addition, they feel very added in and don’t all have much purpose to the story. As the series progressed, I also found them somewhat repetitive from book to book. None of the three books use protection, which some readers will find very offensive. All three books could benefit from greater character development and better plot detail and development. This is especially apparent during the end of each book. The resolutions to the conflicts seemed abrupt and unbelievable. This series was marketed as Rom-Com, but I honestly did not find them very funny at all. This too may have benefited from further development prior to publishing. These dual POV stories are quick reads with some heat. If you are looking for a hot book without a lot of substance they will suit your needs.
In book two, Kiera is really hard to like. Jason’s character has potential but felt undeveloped. I wanted more about his relationship and background with his brother. Kiera’s quick forgiveness of her father felt implausible. How they got to be friends is inconsistent and left me with more questions than answers. Were they family friends for a long time, or have they only known each other a few years? How do their families know each other? We know absolutely nothing more than this about Jason’s family. There were so many things that could have been better.
A well written, entertaining, captivating, engaging, exciting, funny, witty, and emotionally deep read. There is lots of drama, back and forth, ups and downs, and more and is guaranteed to hold your interest from start to finish. The characters you will love and root for; there is a beautiful dynamic and sizzling chemistry between them. Quite enjoyable and strongly recommended.

Keira and Jason are neighbors that have a little flirting going on with their friendship. Then her father was forcing her into a marriage she didn’t want but before she could tell Jason about it his friend did. This had Jason leaving before she could talk to him letting him know that she wasn’t going to go through with the marriage. Now his house is up for sale and she has no clue where he is or what his new phone number is. Her friends tell her that she needs to either move on or find him to get closure. When her mother’s health takes a turn for the worse she turns to his brother for his information one more time. When Jason finds out that Keira has been reaching out to him but his brother hasn’t told him Jason isn’t happy. Will they be able to find their way back to each other? Or will their families come between them again?
This is a great story that once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between them is blazing hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

I absolutely could not wait for Jason and Kiera’s story. I didn’t however love how things were kept from Jason about Kiera. Which, in turn about killed me to wait for Jason and Kiera’s reunion. But, holy crap! Their reunion was EXPLOSIVE! Both Jason and Kiera had their childish moments but when these two are reunited, they burn down the whole house with their chemistry!

This book was great. I couldn’t put it down. Jason Cox and Keira Williams were wonderful characters. Jason and Keira were neighbors. Keira would check Jason out through the window and got to see him in all kinds of comprimising positions. She had a thing for her neighbor and she thought he had a thing for her too. They would talk to each other for hours through that window. They would have pizza and movie nights at home. Jason was a racecar driver and he liked taking things to the limit. So when his best friend, Vincent, told him out of the blue he was getting married to Keira, Jason was so disdrought he moved away and left his cell phone behind. How could Keira do that to him without telling him? But what Jason didn’t know was that Keira broke off the engagement to Vincent because it was an arrangement by their parents. She was never in love with Vincent. Now, when someone told Jason he would move back, right? This book is a must read and I highly recommend.
Jason and Keira finally get their happily ever after. It definitely isn’t a fairytale. After Jason runs from New York he spirals. Kiera isn’t doing any better. Both of them have made a few mistakes but love concurs all. And when they are finally brought back together. Not even the threat of death will stop them from finally getting their happy ending. This book was a sweet and fun read and I can’t wait for Simon and Fallon’s story next!

Summer, you have done it AGAIN girl!!
Kiera’s father tried to force her into a loveless marriage that neither wanted so when she called it off she lost her inheritance but she didn’t care since she had also lost the man she loved more than anything. Months later she made one finally call, hoping her message would get to him.
Jason hadn’t planned on staying in NYC long term until he met his new neighbor so when he found out she was engaged to his best friend he packed his bags and left, never looking back. While out to eat one night he finds out the truth and is determined to make things right but is he too late??
We first met these two in Stealing My Best Friend: Lovers’ Lane #1 and this is there story. Just an FYI you will need a few tissues and you will be sore at the end of this book from all the laughing and smiling you’ll be doing!!
I was new to this author. I fell in love with this book and the characters. The emotions they felt was palpable. I cant wait to read more books by this author.

I loved the first book in this series, this one, not so much. I was looking forward to their story but it Jets fell short for me. Both seem too whiny and immature. We didn’t get to see how their relationship developed, and there’s a lot of little details that seem unrealistic. I am hoping that the 3rd book in this series is better than this one.

It was an interesting read and was well written. Kiera and Jason have been in love with each other for years but never voiced their feelings for each other. A misunderstanding sent the best friends separate ways. An enjoyable story.

You can’t help but love Jason and Kiera- and empathize with them as the people that are supposed to love them continue to meddle in their love lives! Their love for one another is so intense that you begin to wonder if it is going to truly break them. Summer has you racing to the end to find their HEA!
