I just finished Jack, and I have to say I am hooked! This has to be some of the most realistic writing I have ever come across. I mean, it’s relatable and has a full spectrum of emotions. Page turning, Kindle burning awesome read!- Jeanette StockmanJack is a romantic comedy, the first book in the series For The Love Of A Good Woman. It can be read as a standalone, but the characters are … the characters are intertwined in the rest of the series.
“Do I need to worry about this being poisoned?”
Harper turned to me with a glare. “Excuse me?”
“Well, I mean, you already told me that you had plans to murder me at work. Figured maybe this was a sneak attack.”
Sean turned to Harper. “Seriously? You told him you had plans to murder him?”
“No, I was posing a scenario in which we wouldn’t be together anymore.”
“And one of those scenarios was you murdering him.”
Harper started to get flustered and couldn’t find the right words to say. I inwardly laughed. The guys were just busting her chops, but I thought it was hilarious. She got herself into this and she could get herself out.
“I was just… I was saying that people break up and it wasn’t smart to move in together.”
Cole was the next to speak up. “So he asks you to move in and you plot to murder him?”
Jack
When I saw her on the side of the road, I knew that something was different about her. I was attracted to her more than I had been to any woman before her. Our chemistry was explosive, but then so was her temper. It wasn’t just her beauty that attracted me though. She’s smart and independent, and every time she fights me, I want to fight even harder to keep her. I’m just your average guy, trying to figure out the mind of the woman he loves.
Harper
He’s smoking hot and if I wasn’t so accident prone around him, I might be able to show him that I’m an intelligent woman that can take care of myself. I want Jack more than anything, but my heart just doesn’t want to trust that this will all work out. And when things start to go south, I’m not sure we’ll be able to survive. Especially once he learns my secret.
Jack was named one of the best books of all time by BookAuthority.

This is the 1st book in a new series from this talented author. Jack and Harper are hilarious together, and their chemistry is explosive. This is a well written fun story, which had me hooked and intrigued throughout, especially with all of the laugh-out-loud moments throughout. I look forward to reading Cole’s story next, and I highly recommend this authors’ work for all romantic comedy lovers!
Harper’s car breaks down at one of the worst possible moments, it’s pouring rain, no cell phone, and she is in her PJs. Deciding to take the risk and run the rest of the way, she ends up falling not far from the car and twisting her ankle. When a stranger offers help, at a loss of what to do, Harper of course accepts as she doesn’t really have a choice. The sexy stranger that helped her is Jack, and Jack has just decided that his luck is looking up. The two strike off on a whirlwind relationship that has ups and downs like any regular relationship will. But what happens when they both realize that they want different things in life? Will they be able to compromise, or is it better to take their losses and walk away before they get hurt even more?
WOW! So this is my very first read by Giulia Lagomarsino, and this will definitely not be my last! This was a bit different from the norm, you know, the regular boy meets girl, they date, fall in love, get married. This was a very honest take on a relationship, with ups and downs, major drama, super steamy sexy times, and some very funny moments. I really loved Jack and Harper’s story, I can’t wait for the next story. I give this 4.5 stars.
