EXCERPT:
“Yo man, have you seen Jay?” I ask Eli who came to the party with us.
He shakes his head, “Last I saw she was sitting on the couch over there
with Kevin.”
My stomach drops. Kevin’s the campus drug dealer. He used to be a tight end
for the football team in our freshman year at college but was kicked off the
team after drugs were found in his dorm. He’s from New Jersey too, but he lived
up north and actually went to high school with Eli in Hoboken. Eli said he used
to be really popular until he started hanging out with the wrong crowd.
I drop my arm from around Courtney, the girl I was planning on taking home,
and go to try and find Jaylinn. Fuck, I knew I shouldn’t have brought her with
me but I couldn’t tell her no. All that girl has to do is bat her eye lashes
and I’d cave.
I search the whole downstairs of the frat house for her and Kevin but they
are nowhere to be seen. Panic starts to set in, chilling me to the bone. I race
up the stairs, three on the right, three on the left and one straight back. The
first door opens and some guy is standing there that I don’t recognize, pulling
a shirt over his head. I check the bed to make sure Jaylinn isn’t there. I do
this to the next five doors; all were opened and occupied but Jaylinn wasn’t in
any of them. I get to the last door on the left; it’s dark so I reach around
the wall for a light switch. I flick it on and the room is empty.
“Where the fuck is she?” I roar.
I slam the door shut and stamp to the last door. My heart rate spikes
causing a swooshing sound in my ears, my body shakes with rage. I turn the door
knob, it’s locked. I bang on it, “Jaylinn,” Nothing, complete silence.
Something isn’t right. My stomach knots and I try banging on the door a few
times, hoping someone is just passed out and can’t hear me. After a minute I
can’t take it anymore and I ram my shoulder into the door. Once, twice, and
finally it gives way.
My heart stops, I can’t breathe and my vision blurs.
REVIEW:
★★★★ 1/2 stars
Let Me Love You by Megan Smith is the fourth book in this series, the first book in this series that I've read, and the first book by Megan Smith I've read. I can tell you right now, it's not going to be my last. Even not knowing what happened in the previous three books, I was able to keep track of the characters and fall in love with all of them. I am really going to have to go back and read the previous three books
Here's what I'm really impressed with. Megan Smith managed to capture my attention from the first page. Plus she managed to set up what's going to be her next book. That's brilliant! I love how the issue Jaylinn is dealing with was faced. Since I don't know if you've read this book or the others I don't want to give too much away.
I was a little confused about Cooper and Jaylinn's relationship status, but once things were made clear, I really wanted to grab both of them and lock them in a room together so they could figure it out. I also loved the support system they each had. Granted Cooper and Jaylinn have an extra special bond, but I'm totally jealous of the close relationships they have with their siblings and their spouses, many who just happen to be best friends.
I'm so glad I got a chance to read this book and discover this series. Let Me Love You packs an emotional punch and has characters you will love and not want to let go of. I'm off to get more of Hailey and Mason, Mackenzie and Hunter, and Chloe and Jackson, plus all of their adorable kids. If you haven't met them yet, you should.
