A Reclusive Heart (Hollywood Hearts, #2) – by R.L Mathewson
17 July, 2012
I started this book last night and pretty much HAD to read it straight through! Another FAB book from R.L Mathewson..who I picture wearing some sort of wonder woman outfit holding a chocolate bar in one hand and a chocolate shake in the other (am thinking after reading this one she may just have a wee bit of a sweet tooth LOL) because she just delivers every single time I start one of her books!!
This one is about Nick and Jamie. Nick is the bad boy from “A Humble Heart” and I was so happy to have his story because I’ve been crushing on him since then, yes he is a womanizing love ’em and leave ’em kind of guy but whatever, he had me hooked!! (oh and you get why he is like this..)!!
Jamie is a very shy, clumsy and frumpy girl (but if you’ve been knocked down as much as her you can’t really blame her). She sells her company and goes to work for the same company as Nick who ends up being her editor. He is a frustrating RUDE boy thinking to use her to further his career and some of the stuff he says in front of her..well he deserves a good bitch slap! But..actually make that a BUT….he totally redeems himself…TOTALLY!!!!
The talented way this story is written makes the characters so REAL that you get completely drawn into the story and you FEEL the emotions. It had everything to make this a really fabulous read (including yummy bits)!!
Oh and let’s not forget the humor…Jamie’s lists are beyond funny!! The chocolate addiction… yep HILARIOUS!!! I actually cried with laughter through the scene (won’t spoil it) where Nick says: “You’re willing to whore me out for chocolate?”
This book has yet again proven to me that R.L Mathewson is absolutely one of my favorite authors!!!
