THE
TROUBLE WITH LOVE
(A
Cupcake Lovers Novel #2)
Beth
Ciotta
Blurb:
A
CONSTANT CRAVING
Rocky
Monroe’s bad luck is legendary. So it stands to reason that during
a quick trip to New York on behalf of the Cupcake Lovers’
forthcoming book, she winds up in the arms of the one man she never
wants to see again. So what if he’s also the man she can’t stop
dreaming about? Mouth-watering Jayce Bello has always been Rocky’s
biggest mistake, and she’s not going to let history repeat itself …
unless she gets a new taste of his delicious kisses.
AN
IRRESISTIBLE DESIRE
When
Jayce Bello left Sugar Creek ten years ago, it was the right thing to
do—for him and for Rocky, his best friend’s little sister. But
one passionate night with gorgeous, reckless Rocky is enough to prove
that she’s the missing ingredient in his happiness. Now, with
scandalous secrets souring the sweetness of the Cupcake Lovers’
club, Jayce needs to convince Rocky that their love is something to
savor …

TEASER…
Rocky
turned just as Jayce moved into the small room, filling the space
with a palatable intensity. As always her heart fluttered and pounded
at the sight of him. Tall, lean, and mean. Physically perfect in her
book. He wore his dark golden hair longer these days and had grown a
devilishly sexy goatee. Bad-boy to the bone, he was dressed in
neck-to-toe black. Baggy pullover shirt, cargo pants, a wool Pea Coat
hanging open, and a pair of rubber soled boots. He looked to-die-for
handsome. He looked . . . angry.
“You
said it was nothing.”
She
realized his gaze was fixed on her shirt—stained with copious
amounts of mostly dried blood. “It looks worse than it is.” She
gestured to her forehead, feigned nonchalance. “Just a tiny cut,
but it bled like a mother. It’s not that bad. Didn’t even need
real stitches. Just this butterfly strip.”
Jayce
dragged a hand down his face. “What else?”
Her
body trembled when he moved in for a keener inspection. Her
temperature spiked. Her brain glitched. Everything—her senses, her
emotions—were magnified. She blamed her shaky state on the mugging,
the accident, the meds, but no amount of rationalizing, curbed her
intense reaction to the reassuring presence of this man. “Just some
bruises,” she croaked, swallowing hard when he smoothed messy curls
from her face. She’d had a crush on Jayce since she was a kid.
She’d finally seduced him on the night of her seventeenth birthday.
It had been perfect . . . until the next morning when he’d broken
her heart. Every time she saw him, which was hardly ever, a lifetime
of memories and emotions battered her soul. Every time she saw him,
she fell a little harder instead of digging her way out. “I
shouldn’t have called.”

Reveiw
I've so much enjoyed this second book in the Cupcake Lover series. It brought back characters from the first book that we loved, and gave us some insight to what happened between both Rocky & Jayce. I have to say I loved them. They just seemed perfect for each other. Ciotta handled their past well. She didn't brush it under the table or make it so big that it took over the whole story. I really didn't want the story to end. I can't wait for the next book in this series. I just wish it wasn't so far away. Happy reading!
