Niki and Gavin!!!! Oh My.
When I started reading this book I was smiling from ear to ear when I realized it was going to be about these two. They are an amazing couple. Then Widen comes into the picture and tried to spoil things but the only thing he spoils more is himself, which he deserves.
I Loved this book as much as I loved Love War. I can’t wait til Love Conquer is out. I look forward to reading any book the Cary writes, she is one heck of an author.
A really great storyline with true to life situations, this is a must read. Nikki is torn between her dear friend, Gavin, and wanting to be something more. Then in comes Aiden, with his Jekyll and Hyde act and sweeps her off of her feet. How does she choose one over the other when they both seem to have pieces of her heart? Even though this is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.
Love Divide by Cary Hart is a story about exactly that, a love divided. This is the second book in the Battlefield of Love series, and like the first it did not disappoint
.
Niki is a preschool teacher who works summers at her friend Gavin’s bar. He is one of her two best friends, the other being Aubrey. One night at the bar she shares a dance and kiss with a man that will change the direction of her life. The man, Aiden, makes her an offer that is too good to pass up. It will require her to spend the summer away from the bar and Gavin, and the feelings she has for him.
Gavin feels the attraction between him and Niki, but never acts on it. He doesn’t want to ruin the close friendship that they have developed. When a strange man comes in and sweeps Niki away from him and the bar, he begins to realize that he needs to take a chance or he might not get one at all. He has always been there for her and when things get tough he’s there to help her pick up the pieces. Will he be able to make her see the love between them before it’s too late? Or has another already taken her heart?
“Love Divided. The decision should be easy… It Isn’t.”
Niki was one of my favorite characters from the first book. I am so glad I didn’t have to wait too long to find out what was going on with her. Her situation made my heart ache. I love her personality and she is the type of person who I would imagine that I could be great friends with. She found out a lot about herself and who she was as a person throughout this book. I don’t envy her the tough choices that she had to make.
Gavin is the best. No really. He’s a good friend. A great boss. And a terrific lover. I love that no matter what he was there for Niki. He never gave up on her. That is a sexy trait in a man, combine that with all his other traits and that man is walking hotness!
Just like in Love War, Cary explores deep and real issues. Her writing is beautiful and gives the feeling that you are part of the experience. She gives pieces of the puzzle one at a time and when you think you’re about to solve it, she throws in a twist that has you rearranging the pieces once again. I can’t wait to see what story she gives us next. FOUR stars for real love.
The second book in Cary Hart’s Battlefield of Love series was as good as the first. Niki (Aubrey’s best friend from the first book – Love War) has always had a buried crush on Gavin, who she works for during the summer, but neither of then has ever acted on it, afraid of what it will do to their friendship. But when she has a steamy encounter with a wealthy businessman, who is a supreme alpha, everything goes off the rails taking all of the characters in directions none of them expected to go. There are erotic heat and danger, laughter and tears, and the direction changes from one moment to the next and keeps us guessing. The questions I asked myself through the story were: will one of the most important friendships of Niki’s life survive what’s coming? And what if it doesn’t?
The characters were full of angst and unpredictable. Ms Hart’s storytelling ability is exceptional and her writing drew me in. There’s a darkness to her romances, but it is a darkness I willingly wish to wade through because I want to see how it ends. There’s also some silliness that balances the story so it doesn’t hold you completely in the depths. And there are surprises that keep you guessing until the very end. I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next!
Love Divide is another wonderful book by Cary Hart and a great addition to the Battlefield of Love series. I’m excitedly waiting for the release of Love Conquer.
Niki is a wonderful character. She’s strong, sweet and sassy. Niki also has a way with people, that makes an impression on everyone she meets. It’s hard not to fall in love with her personality.
It’s no surprise that she has two guys battling for her love and affection.
Gavin has been Niki’s best friend for years. He’s always been there when she needed someone to lean on and is the one person that knows everything about her.
Aiden is the mysterious, gorgeous and demanding man that inserts himself into Niki’s life by tempting her with an offer that was difficult to resist.
Niki never planned on falling in love. Now she finds herself at a crossroads. Will she give her heart to Gavin or Aiden?
