Love
can take some time to break in...
Teagan
O’Brien, heiress to the Riley O’Brien & Co. denim empire, is
anything but a spoiled rich girl. She’s worked hard to secure her
place in the family business and can hold her own, in and out of the
office. Only one man has ever been able to get under her skin—sexy
football star Nick Priest. Years ago they crossed the line from
friends to lovers, but he left her heartbroken. Since then, she’s
been determined to keep him at arm’s length—no matter how
tempting he looks in his jeans...
Nick
has fortune, fame, and looks that make most women hot and bothered.
But he doesn't have the woman he really wants. He knows he screwed up
when he walked away from Teagan, and now that he has a second chance,
he’ll do whatever it takes to win her over—no matter how
tongue-tied he gets...

San Francisco—Present DayBlunder. Gaffe. Misstep. Error. Snafu. Although plenty of words described the huge, life-altering mistake Nick Priest had made, none of them quite conveyed his stupidity. He’d had a chance with Teagan O’Brien, but he’d blown it. That was his biggest regret, and he had a lot of them.As he stared at her across the ballroom, he had to remind himself to breathe. Her long, red dress clung to her curvy body, just tight enough to make every man in the room wish his pants were a little looser behind the zipper.She reminded him of a starlet from the 1950s with her abundant breasts, narrow waist, and round hips. He’d had the pleasure of shaping those hips with his hands, tonguing her rosy nipples, and sinking into her luscious body, although pleasure didn’t really describe what he’d felt when he had been with her.She laughed, her deep blue eyes glinting in the light from the chandeliers, and her date leaned closer, licking his lips as he got an eyeful of her tits. Nick clenched his hands into fists, barely controlling the urge to ram the fucker’s head into the wall.For more than a year and a half, he had been trying to persuade Teagan to give him another chance. But she hated him with all the passion she’d given him during their one and only night together.He thought about approaching her but discarded the idea. She had become a master at avoiding him, and she would find a reason to excuse herself immediately.Forcing himself to relax, he settled more comfortably against the wood-paneled wall. He wasn’t trying to blend in. He knew that was impossible.His face and form were highly recognizable from years of playing pro football, and most recently, appearing in commercials for Riley O’Brien & Co., the nation’s oldest designer and manufacturer of blue jeans. Since he’d thrown his lot in with the company, he had figured he ought to attend the annual holiday party. Plus, he had known Teagan would be here.This wasn’t the first O’Brien celebration he had attended. He’d known the family for about fifteen years. He had played football with Quinn O’Brien at the University of Southern California, and he had formed friendships with both Quinn and his younger brother, Cal.The O’Brien brothers were Nick’s best friends, two of his favorite people. But his absolute favorite person was their little sister, Teagan. He’d known her almost as long as he had known Quinn and Cal, and before he’d messed things up, they had been friends. Best friends, in fact.

When I read All The Right Places I really didn't care for the sister. I wasn't sure if Teagan could change my feelings about her. She really didn't totally change them. I have to admit I'm not sure I would be friends with her.
I'm still on the fence about her. Isn't that horrible? The weird part is that I really enjoyed Coming Apart at the Seams.
I loved, Nick. He's such a great guy.
He really makes the book. I do believe that he's perfect for Teagan. He gets her.
As a whole I really loved their story. So many ups and downs. I enjoyed the way the worked their issues out. The author did a great job and making you want them to work. I became very invested in their romance.
I love when that happens in the books that I'm reading. Nothing better then cheering on the main couple.
This is a great series and I think you'll really love it. Do yourself a favor and add both All The Right Places and Coming Apart at the Seams to your Christmas list. You won't be unhappy.
If you've read Coming Apart at the Seams or any other book by Jenna Sutton I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for visiting with me and happy reading!
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and review COMING APART AT THE SEAMS!
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome!
DeleteI really enjoyed this one too. I'd been nervous about her as well but she won me over. I did want to shake her a little for how long some things went on but was pretty happy in the end :D
ReplyDeleteI was worried at first that I would spend the whole book not liking her but I'm so glad that didn't happen.
