Bring on the Alpha men. I don’t want a boy that I can share my jeans with…you know, if I could fit my ass into skinny jeans! I mean, unless it’s a rockstar. They can pull off tight pants…or I can pull them off…
Sorry, getting off topic!
Last week I read the second in Lexxi Callahan’s Southern
Style Romance series, Solving for Nic. I knew I was in for a yummy alpha treat
after reading her first book Sweetened with a Kiss last year. Her heroes remind
me of heroes from romance novels I read years ago. Old fashioned alphas that
can be overbearing and you want to kick them in the ass, but they would lay
down their lives for the heroine. I love that!
Her characters are believable and well-developed. They come
off the page with their witty banter and realistic issues. No over the top
angst or huge misunderstandings…I hate big misunderstandings…they make me want
to yell at the characters and tell them to have a freaking conversation! This
was just a wonderful love story that I’m pretty sure I read in one sitting.
The sexual tension was fantastic and I was rooting for them
from the first page. Lizzie is the little sister of Nic's friend/business partner
(Stefan from book 1) and they’ve wanted each other for years, but due to a ten
year age gap, and Nic’s emotional hang-ups, he tries to just see her as just a
little sister. Of course he can’t...and then we get to the banter and steamy
sex scenes...and everything else I love about romance. And the heroine is a
super smart mathlete…no too-stupid-to-live heroines here!
So if you are looking for a hot alpha male and a smarty
pants heroine with great sexual tension, not too much angst, and a sweet love
story that will leave you swooning, I definitely recommend this book.
Oh, and the epilogue...it's adorable. Loved seeing Nic show his softer and funnier side with Lizzie.
Now go and grab this book, and the first one too. Trust me, you’ll love Stefan and Jen as much as you'll love Nic and Lizzie.

Happy reading and remember, real men don’t wear skinny
jeans!
