Book 3 in the Attraction Series and if I’m honest, it was my favourite. I love the first two books but this one got me so wrapted up that I binge read it. It had everything I love, some drama, some laughs, and some excitement. Highly recommend these book and I do recommend them to anyone who will listen
Well let me start by saying guys, WOW just WOW!!
I only started this novel this morning and finished it in one sitting. I COULD NOT put this down (yep using shouty capitals there). I was drawn into a world of secrets, distrust, hurt, pain, raw emotion and sheer heartache and I loved every minute of it.
In this turbulent, heart wrenching and breathtaking read we meet both Axel and Ashlynn.
Axel has a past. He has done things that only nightmares are made of. His past haunts him daily. But Axel survives each and every single day immersed in work, and leaning on his best friends. Axel has witnessed his best friends find love and being a third wheel isn’t cutting it for Axel anymore. Used to one night stands, Axel is reconsidering that maybe, just maybe a relationship is what he wants. Watching his best friends find ‘the one’, Axel finds himself wanting the same thing.
But how can he find his one when his best friends have taken the perfect women?
Ashlynn. A bright and beautiful woman who is very independent and has a love of books isn’t looking for a relationship. She simply doesn’t want one. Scars from her past have closed her heart to ever wanting a relationship.
So you can only imagine what happens when Axel and Ashlynn meet.
Axel wants all things Ashlynn.
Ashlynn wants nothing to do with Axel.
Who will win this battle?
And whose demons are coming back from the past to taunt and ruin them in their present?
I found myself completely immersed in this novel. A beautifully written read with all the heartbreak and heartfelt moments that just left me speechless.
I loved Axel and Ashlynn’s story and I highly recommend Fierce Attraction.

Favorite Quotes:
I’d tried telling Liz I was fictosexual, but she laughed in my face… I knew it was the perfect way to describe my sexuality. I was only into fictional men. No real life one could measure up…
‘So, what does being your friend entail, exactly.’ ‘Lots of physical contact.’ He shot back in all seriousness. ‘And clothing is always optional. Friends let friends be naked. Also, a lot of action movies, popcorn, chocolate covered strawberries, sex, long walks on the beach, and candlelit dinners.’
I’ve never been so caught up in someone as I am with you.
Hot damn! A smokin’ hot librarian who loved smut. She couldn’t get any better if she tried.
My Review:
JB Heller has rewarded us with another addition to her Attraction Series, and Fierce Attraction – Book 3 is a quick and exciting read with 200 pages of sweet and sexy romance, humor, intrigue, playful antics, sibling hijinks, amusing pick-up lines, and fun loving yet foul-mouthed he-men. I enjoyed every page of it, as I have every other tale from the talented Ms. Heller.
Ashlynn is beyond socially awkward and prone to panic attacks, but she catches Axel’s eye and he is instantly smitten. Despite all the risks and past history to work through, they are perfect for each other and of course their sizzling sensual chemistry speeds that process along. The storyline was engaging, the characters were endearingly flawed and highly lovable, and the writing was humorous and easy to follow. JB Heller remains one of my favorite Aussies of all time.
