The Thing About Love by Kim Karr

An emotional and unforgettable new romance from New York Times bestselling author Kim Karr.

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.

Review by Lorena
This was a sexy, flirty and fun rom-com that will leave you sated.

Jules is a wedding planner who can be a bit clumsy at times.  She also has no filter.  She was funny and cute and a total mess at times.

Jake was a handsome doctor just looking to help his sister plan her wedding.  He wanted her to have her fairytale wedding since they didn't have such great role models as parents. 

Jules and Jake definitely did have something in common, they were both affected by the 911 tragedy.  Both lost significant people in their lives in this horrible tragedy.   Do you think maybe this is what bonded Jules and Jake? 

Let's not forget they both started off on the wrong foot, or more like Jules did!! 

As they are forced to work with one another by none other than Jake's sister.  Jake has no choice but to accept Jules' help in preparing the planning of his sister's wedding.  But what neither one saw coming was that they both were going to end up getting along better than they thought.  At first they had a little bit of a squabble, they weren't seeing eye-to-eye but they eventually found that right footing.

Both ended up developing feelings for each other but Jake wasn't looking for long-term since he wasn't planning on sticking around.  His intentions were to move to New York and he couldn't have Jules come along.

But is love strong enough for them to make it work? 

Again, this book was funny, sexy and I enjoyed reading it til the end.

She grew up in Rochester, NY and now lives in Florida with her husband and four kids. She’s always had a love for reading books and writing. Being an English major in college, she wanted to teach at the college level but that was not to be. She went on to receive an MBA and became a project manager until quitting to raise her family.
