Second Chance Perfection
4

Samanthe Beck has another hit on her hands.
Full disclosure: My girl-crush on Sinclair Smith began in book one of Beck's Love Emergency series. She was the protective big sister whose sassy personality almost eclipsed the heroine's. I've been anxious for her story ever since. It was well worth the wait. She's just as fiery, independent, and stubborn, which makes her perfect for Shane Maguire.
Now there's a sexy hero who's going to make hearts flutter and panties melt. I have a slight aversion to alphas. By slight I mean I've never met one I didn't want to neuter. Our man Shane weaved back and forth over that alpha line, earning him the side eye for the first part of the story. In the second half he either chilled his controlling ways or his repeated attempts to win back Sinclair's heart wore me down. It's a toss up. Either way, it's a certainty that if I think a hero is too alpha, other readers are going to fall quick & hard, elevating him to the top of their BBF list.
We met most of the secondary characters in the previous books. It was so much fun seeing them again. Sinclair and Savannah's parents are still the sweet, funny parents we all wish we'd had. Then there's Savannah, Beau, Hunter, Madison and a passel of little ones I couldn't keep track of. Boy, have they been having fun since we last saw them!
I doubt we'll see him again in a starring role, but I have to give honorable mention to Shane's boss. He had a plain spoken way of delivering sage one-liners that was hilarious. I completely adored him.
The story hooked me immediately and held me captive until the last word. I truly did not want this book to end. It was sweet, funny, emotional, and steamy-all delivered in that incomparable Samanthe Beck style. It will definitely go on my keeper shelf to be reread.
If you haven't read this series yet, treat yourself now. Emergency Attraction can be read as a standalone, but you'll get so much more out of it if you read Emergency Engagement and Emergency Delivery first.
