Sinossi
Sex on the Beach #2
«Ricordo la prima volta che ho visto Quinn. «Costume da bagno che modellava un fisico mozzafiato, occhi scuri e misteriosi mentre incrociava il mio sguardo con quell’espressione che mi sarebbe diventata così familiare. In quell’istante ho perso la testa per lei, e da allora non ho mai più cambiato idea. «Sapevo che lei era fuori dalla mia portata, ma non me ne importava. Ripensandoci, mi domando come sarebbe andata, se non l’avessi inseguita. È il destino che determina le nostre scelte nella vita? Il libero arbitrio? Oppure è solo il nostro innato egoismo? «L’ho conquistata, naturalmente. Come tutte le ragazze. Il problema è stato che anche lei mi ha sedotto, corpo, mente e anima. Mi ha posseduto, mi ha tormentato e mi ha fatto vedere un mondo così luminoso e puro da lasciarmi quasi accecato. «Quinn mi ha fatto sentire di nuovo vivo. Ha guardato dritto nella anima sporca e mi amato ugualmente. Non aveva capito che, una volta assuefatto a quella droga, non mi sarei più accontentato di nient’altro? Non aveva capito che, indipendentemente da quante volte avessi rovinato tutto, o le avessi spezzato il cuore, o l’avessi piegata alla mia volontà, non sarei mai stato capace di lasciarla andare? «Doveva essere una storia d’amore. E questa è la nostra storia.»

Recensioni
Jennifer Probst's Beyond Me was my favourite story in the Sex on the Beach series last year. I loved Quinn and James, they were complete opposites but they brought the best out in each other and they made a great couple. The story was a novella so the romance happened fairly fast but I thoroughly en Leggi tutto
ARC provided by author in exchange of honest review [image error] Chasing Me by Jennifer Probst picks off where it last left off on Beyond Me. We are reunited with James and Quinn as they adjust to their new life back in Chicago. With Quinn set on her goals and ambition with school and work, Jame
I quite enjoyed this continuation of James and Quinn's story, begun in Beyond Me (which ended on a happy note) as they adjust to couplehood and living in Chicago. They are both pursuing careers, and while Quinn is moving places James is still struggling with his art classes and his own internal know Leggi tutto
In this surprising conclusion to her first book, James and Quinn are trying to make their one week vacation relationship work in the real world.

In Chasing Me Quinn and James are trying to find their way as a couple in Chicago.

Such a great story! I loved the first book but glad this was a continuation. It's nice to read a story that shows you need to put work into getting your happy ending. I love how there are struggles by both characters that they need to overcome. Jennifer shows the "growing"up a young love needs to do Leggi tutto
Although I do understand that this book is the second installment in a series, I simply cannot say that I would be interested in reading the first book. This tragically dramatic, immature romance was quite predictable and redundant. It becomes very clear from the beginning of the novel that there is Leggi tutto
The continuation of the story of Quinn and James was not an easy one on the two of them. James has done a complete 180 in his life and Quinn is still pursuing her goals and almost zen like in her strive to become something great. For someone who wants to become a social worker, I was a bit confused
