Julie James is one of my can't go wrong authors. Loved this book, just like all of her previous books. It has witty and smart dialogue, along with a great love story. Def. worth a credit!

Kyle Rhodes is surprised to find Assistant U.S. Attorney Rylann Pierce appear at his court hearing. Kyle and Rylann had a memorable meeting nine years ago, but fate had intervened and they lost contact. Now after being convicted for shutting down twitter and serving a short stint in Federal prison, Kyle (aka: The Twitter Terrorist) is ready to get on with his life and put the whole thing behind him. But Rylann contacts him about something he witnessed while in prison. He is not happy to be helping the U.S. Attorneys with their case, but does jump on the chance to see Rylann again.
This is a cute contemporary romance. Kyle was introduced in the previous book in the series and I really liked him. I was happy to see that this book was about him. I think he was a great hero, a guy who could laugh at his own mistakes. Rylann was a likable heroine. Their banter was very entertaining and kept me glued to the book. There wasn't a lot of angst in this story which suited me. I would have liked to see a little bit of suspense in this book like there was in the previous books, but this one was 100 percent romance. My rating: 5 Stars.

This book was a huge disappointment for me! It goes on and on about the legal system and being an Assistant District Attorney for days and that's about it. By page 120 I was wondering, "Where is the romance?" With only 284 pages in the book, that's not a good sign for a romance novel.
1 1/2 stars for me.

Interesting "night" - because nothing happened. But, the two characters have kept that night simmering for years until they finally get a "do-over". Characters are likeable and plot is believable.
Much of Kyle's back story is discussed in the previous book (A Lot Like Love). Rylann was a new character. I missed having the suspense element in this one. Kyle was repentant for what he did, but being rich and having a very supportive family helped too. I admit to being unsure of their relationship: ex-con (yes for a non-violent and non-drug related offense) and an assistant DA. It only worked because Kyle made amends with Twitter (don't worry he got something from it, it wasn't him just being nice) and will not re-offend.
I did like the glimpses at Cameron and Jack; Jordan and Nick and seeing where they are at in their relationships.
