The Thing About Love Release Blitz +Giveaway +Review


Title: The Thing About Love
Author: Kim Karr
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 3, 2018


Blurb
The whole stethoscope-and-white coat thing isn’t my cup of tea.

I prefer a man with an artistic vein in his body. 9 - 5 hours. And I can definitely do without the half-lidded, sleepy bedroom eyes. (Okay, so those are kind of sexy.)

Tall, dark, and handsome doesn’t change the fact that he’s arrogant, cocky, and rude.
Not that I care, but he’s made it clear he wants nothing to do with a quirky girl like me, which is why he said no.

Turns out no isn’t an option.

I have a quickie wedding to plan, and Dr. Jake Kissinger doesn’t have a choice. He looks at our situation like he’s stuck with me, but in reality, I’m stuck with him. Stuck with his pouty mouth. His long, lean body. And stuck with those loose, low riding scrub pants. (Okay, so the doctor thing is growing on me.)

When spending time together turns into more than it should, I know I’m in trouble.
He isn’t supposed to make my heart pound.
I’m not supposed to make him look twice.
And we aren’t supposed to spend the night together. (Okay, so he has more than one artistic vein in his body, and other places.)

Falling for him is definitely a mistake.

Here’s the thing…
Jake is unavailable, and I know it.
Just not in the way you might think.

I guess you can’t have your cake and eat it too.

My Review
 
This book was fantastic. While I have several of Kim’s books on my TBR list this is the first one of her books that I have read and I loved it so much. This book is moving and emotional. Just fantastic. Jake and Jules don’t hit it off when they first meet. In fact, she pushes a piece of cake in his face. In her defense she had the best of intentions she just acted before she had all the acts. They go from not liking each other to finding love. This book has some pretty emotional parts to it. This book was funny one minute and then steamy the next. Some times when you’re least looking for love it finds you. I honestly can’t say enough about this book. I can’t wait to read more of Kim’s books.

My Review
This is the third book in the series. I haven’t read the other two books and didn’t feel like I was missing anything or confused. This is also the first book I have read by Sarah. This book had a lot going on. Grace is a mafia princess who doesn’t like the mafia. Six years ago, she ran and now she is faced with her past. Rocco is an enforcer for the mafia. He didn’t choose to be who he is. Rather this life was forced on him. Rocco and Grace share a past. But forces beyond their control tore them apart. Now they may have a second chance. They are older and have learned things. Rocco maybe the only person who can save Grace and her family. This book has romance, danger, and so much more. I felt for Rocco. He was forced to do the things he has done. Broken by people who were supposed to love him. Grace was young when she and Rocco were first together. Now she is older and more mature, sure of what she wants and that maybe she can have who she wants despite the mafia connections. Things aren’t as they seem and many people are working behind the scenes to make things happen. I am eager to read the first two books in this series. I have already added them to my TBR list. I look forward to reading more books by Sarah in the future.
