From New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis… SOMETIMES YOU CAN GO HOME AGAIN . . . After an overseas mission goes wrong, Army Special Forces officer Jacob Kincaid knows where he must go to make things right: back home to the tiny town of Cedar Ridge, Colorado. All he needs to scrub away his painful past is fresh mountain air, a lakeside cabin, and quiet solitude. But what he discovers … quiet solitude. But what he discovers is a gorgeous woman living on a boat at his dock.
Sophie Marren has nowhere else to go. She’s broke, intermittently seasick, and fighting a serious attraction to the brooding, dishy, I’m-too-sexy-for-myself guy who’s now claiming her dock. Something about Jacob’s dark intensity makes her want to tease-and tempt-him beyond measure. Neither one wants to give any ground . . . until they realize the only true home they have is with each other.

Oh my gosh, I loved this book. After the first two in the series, I didn’t think it could get better but it did. Jacob is my favorite Kincaid brother. Ok, ok, I said that about Aiden, then Hud. Seriously, start at the beginning and read all three books.
While I enjoyed the rest of this series, there was something about Jacob’s return to town that made this one stick out. He’s mentioned throughout the rest of the books, but you finally get your answers here. I was excited for his happy ending after reading about what he’d been though!
Another sure fire hit from Jill Shalvis!
So I absolutely love Jill Shalvis’ books and “Nobody But You” is no exception. Except… it might be one of my all time favorites.
Sophie & Jacob’s tale was breathtakingly beautiful! Definitely worth many re-reads!
Jill Shalvis does not disappoint. I love the third book in the Cedar Ridge series. I think it is my favorite.
Jacob and Sophie are strong, funny and perfect for each other. I don’t want to give away anything about their story except it is a must read!
I read the series. There were some laughs, some good dialog and worth sharing with friends.
After reading a couple of dark, gritty romances I was in the mood for something sexy yet sweet and I knew this book would be all that and more. I hadn’t read this series so I went and bought books one and two as I loved this one so much. It was easy to read as a standalone but I can’t wait to go back and read about this character’s siblings.
This one was about Jacob, Army Special Forces Officer who returns home after years away. He has emotional baggage from before he left and returned grieving the loss of his mate who was like a brother to him. Sophie is a wonderful match for him. She’s quirky despite coming out of a bad break up herself. Their banter is amusing, their chemistry sizzles and all this made for a fun, sexy read.
Sophie Marren thought she was doing the admirable thing by taking the high road in her divorce and not making any demands in court for her ex-husband, but her plan kind of came back to bite her in the rear. By refusing to receive spousal support, or take the home they shared, or one of his fancy cars, she left herself homeless, car-less and broke. The only thing she walked away with, or sailed away with, were her meager belongings and his beloved boat, which she clearly didn’t think through since it has her constantly feeling sea sick. She thought taking his boat from him would hurt him almost as badly as he hurt her, when he chose to seek comfort from other woman during the course of their marriage… but now she isn’t so sure it was the best idea. Constantly being sick has her wanting to jump ship, but the minute she “parks it” at a personal dock, she is met by a brooding, yet wickedly handsome man, who tells her she is trespassing and she’s got to go… which spawns a little game of cat and mouse that she is determined to win! But walking/sailing away a winner might just be a little more challenging than she anticipated because something about this handsome stranger strikes a cord with her, and has her plan to avoid men at all costs slowly floating away..
Army Special Forces officer Jacob Kincaid heads home to Colorado armed with a plan of reconciliation, he is hoping to repair the fractured relationship between him and his family. When he left for the Army a few years ago he left behind a lot of hurt feelings and severed the bond between him and his twin brother, without ever looking back. He is also returning home as a man with many demons, and he is hoping a stay in a secluded cabin, surrounded by the peace and tranquility that only the mountains can provide will do him some good, and get his mind right again. But just as his little vacation gets underway he finds himself having a turf war with a beautiful, yet frustrating, boat owner who is determined to drive him crazy… in more ways than one!!
This heartwarming little read captured my attention right from the start and had me flying right through the pages in search of what I hoped to be a very well deserved happily ever after, and a few laughs too, and I am happy to report that I found that and so much more! Ms. Shalvis’s uniquely crafted characters completely won me over with their witty one liners, charming down to earth personalities, and flirty infused heated banter. This was my second visit to the series, and I have to say I enjoyed this trip even more than the first, Jacob completely stole my heart from the get go and had me swooning the whole way through!! I highly recommend you give this read a try, it is one of those reads that will have you in tears one moment and laughing the next, and is certain to leave you with an overall feeling complete literary satisfaction!
