• ... but part of the Jack & Jill world (Book #6)
“If sin weren’t pretty, it wouldn’t be so tempting.”
I was an accomplished music professor.
Happily single.
Perfectly content.
Now, I’m unemployed.
Pining for a dark, brooding guy named Jack who lives in a garage with a
piano.
And I’m plotting to seduce a married man because his daughter is
responsible for my nephew committing suicide.
I don’t know why teenage girls are so mean.
I don’t know why rich men cheat on their wives.
And I don’t know why Jack has serial killer vibes, even though he leaves
me speechless every time he speaks.
All I know for sure is that I feel safe in a stranger’s arms and
understood by someone I don’t understand.
“You should be a little scared of everyone because humans are
unpredictable.”
How far will I go for revenge? More than that …
How far will he go to save me?
*This book contains material involving sexual assault and suicide.
Reader discretion is advised.
Francesca + Jackson
Jackson. Book Number 3? 4? 5?
If you haven't read any of his books in the Jack and Jill series - PLEASE DO SO NOW. It might break your heart several times, but you need to get to know him and everything about him and his people! And after that you can come back here. And please don't keep on reading this review if you haven't read his books yet! Also - if you're easily triggered by suicide (off the page) and raperishy scenes ... don't read this book.
We're in Nowhere Kansas. Francesca just came into town to clean out her brother's house. Her brother killed himself three years ago. And then just a while ago Francesca's nephew Steven also killed himself. And the mom couldn't take all the pain so she killed herself just a day later.
And now here's Francesca getting her twin brother's house ready to be sold.
But the nice 80-something neighbor lady just gave her something very interesting.
Something that points to someone who might be guilty in driving her nephew to kill himself.
And that person - or rather that person's father is why our darling Jackson is in town too. He lives in the old lady's garage. And Francesca is super interested in this mysterious guy!
Ugh. Jackson!
That poor guy.
Is he finally getting his forever ever happily ever after ever with Francesca?
But first he has to get rid of the last of the threats against his family. His sister, his daughter. His grandson. They won't have a safe and free life if Jackson fails in this Kansas mission.
Francesca is so not the distraction he needs right now.
But he also can't stay away.
It's so adorable and funny and sparky and sexy and heartbreaking and sad and griefy. Ugh.
We hope all through the book that those two will get that happily ever after. But it doesn't look good.
I loved reading this.
I will miss these Jack & Jill people so much!
These books were just amazing!
I so need Hollywood to come and make an amazing show out of all of this!
BECAUSE OF HER was such a beautiful book. Adorable. Heartbreaking. Sweet. Funny. Dangerous. Dark. Sad. Hopeless. And all the things. The perfect finale in this amazing series! READ IT!

With 10 years of flossing lectures under her belt, she took early retirement from her dental hygiene career to stay home with her three awesome boys and manage the family business.
After her best friend of nearly 30 years suggested a few books from the Contemporary Romance genre, Jewel was hooked. Devouring two and three books a week but still craving more, she decided to practice sustainable reading, AKA writing.
When she’s not donning her cape and saving the planet one tree at a time, she enjoys yoga with friends, good food with family, rock climbing with her kids, watching How I Met Your Mother reruns, and of course…heart-wrenching, tear-jerking, panty-scorching novels.
