~ Synopsis ~

"Life is messy. Love is messier."

 -Catch and Release

Meg Adeio has led a life of isolation—not by choice, by necessity—until one act of heroism forces her out of seclusion. Despite a past shrouded in mystery, Meg is “adopted” by an eclectic group of friends that become the family she never had. Life was good for the first time in…ever.

Or it was until Westly Black reappeared on her doorstep. She knew he was the last man any woman should give her time to—only good for one thing—yet a temptation no woman could deny. Wes might make her life messy, but Meg’s eyes were wide open and she had it under control.  At least she thought she did.

When past and present collide, loyalties are tested, forcing Meg to sacrifice her future to protect those she loves.

Temper For You is a gripping story of regret, deception, and redemption – filled with raw emotion, sarcastic wit, intrigue, and love’s propensity to forgive.
Though Temper For You is a final book of the For You Series, it can be read as a stand-alone.  This story is appropriate for readers 18+

~ Excerpt ~

I may have slept, but I didn’t rest.  My dreams were plagued by warm caramel eyes that promised endless hours of yet unknown satisfaction.  Damn the man.  He was the single most beautiful creature I had ever seen…devastating, that was the word for him.  If the whole sleazebag-lawyer thing didn’t work out, there’s no doubt Calvin Klein or Armani would be knocking down his door.  His defined bone structure with high cheek bones, prominent jaw, and strong brow were every woman’s fantasy.  And his lips…I wanted to bite those full, luscious lips.  Add the chocolate brown hair that begged to be pulled while locked in an undulating embrace…irresistible!

What was wrong with me?  I knew he was a conscienceless miscreant.  Shouldn’t that knowledge work as a sedative to my recently awakened—and usually dormant—sex drive?  But no, my otherwise mute inner hussy jumped up and down, shouting like a drunken sorority girl after losing her third game of flip-cups, every time he entered a room.

It had taken months after I’d learned who he was and what he had done to force him from my mind.  I lied to my friends, pretending to dismiss him without a second thought, but I couldn’t lie to myself—I still craved him in an unfamiliar and overwhelming fashion.

And now he was going to live next door.

We didn’t even have a few feet of lawn separating us…no, he was a narrow flower bed away.  I could only wonder what I had done to piss off the bitch known as karma to justify this turn of events.

That’s a lie.

I knew what I had done, and I deserved every torturous moment.

Lying alone in my bed last night, I could practically feel his presence seeping through the sheetrock, tormenting me.  As my hand slid down my stomach in response, I chided myself before firmly tucking both hands beneath my pillow to ward off any temptation.  Subsequently, I spent the next hour debating the merits of moving out before vowing not to let him run me off.

He. Would. Not. Win.

Yep, a double dose of chocolate was necessary this morning.

~ Review ~

This is the 3rd installment in the For You Series and  I would recommend that the series read in order to get the full understanding of the characters.  As with the other books, Temper for You focuses on one couple, Meg and Wes.  You meet them in the previous books and quickly get that Meg is hiding some pretty big secrets. We also come to see the Wes isn't as much as a pompous ass as perceived in Pieces for You.

I love Genna's writing style.  I love that she allows the characters some "comic relief" even when they are facing some difficult situations.  Catching up with Hunter, Everleigh, Sam and Griffin are just some added bonuses as her characters have a way of staying with you. 

This story will captivate you and keep you up turning pages late into the night because you will want to know how things unfold for Wes and Meg.
Meg doesn't have much experience with men.  Wes doesn't want any strings or a relationship for that matter.  Or does he?  They both feel the attraction but neither one of them is willing to act on it.  But when they do, the sparks fly and we get some pretty steamy scenes.

 It is a story full of fear, forgiveness, redemption and love. I took the subtle hints about Meg's past but when the secrets are finally revealed I was still thrown a bit.  We find that with great supporting friends, that we never even set out to obtain, all things are possible.

If you are new to the series, go grab them an get caught up.  It appears the Genna will be giving us one more installment in the For You Series and for that I am grateful.
