So Screwed
What a fantastic story! From the strong writing to the skilled characterization, So Screwed was a book I couldn’t put down, and more importantly, didn’t want to put down. I loved Evelyn and Abel. They were both strong characters and the absolute best people to challenge each other because what you see on the surface isn’t exactly who resides beneath the mask. Beautifully told with humor, heart, and heat, So Screwed by Melissa Marino is a book that needs to be on your reading radar asap. It’s the second book in a series, but I had no trouble at all following and enjoying Evelyn and Abel’s story. So, so glad I picked this one up! Abel is a to-die-for hero and Evelyn is my favorite kind of heroine, strong, independent, and not afraid to stand her ground or give as good as she gets.
Love. Love. Love!

From SO SCREWED:
As the door clicked shut, I found myself pushed up against it, Abel pressing his body into me. He swooped down, pressing his lips tightly to mine before opening his mouth and allowing his tongue to find mine. Deep kisses, his hands in my hair and mine gripping the back of his neck, led to a now-familiar sigh falling from his lips.
“That’s more like it,” he mumbled against my mouth. “I missed you.”
The words, along with his beard, tickled me inside and out. He missed me. It was like Callie had said—we were gooey. He smiled and rested his hands on my hips. His fingers fumbled around the middle of the jumpsuit I was wearing before he reached around my back, his hands smoothing across to my ass.
“What are you doing?” I asked.
“Trying to find your skin so I can touch you.”
I stifled a moan because it was the exact thing that made me weak. His moves in bed were amazing, but he had perfected his art of words very well. I would’ve liked to have attributed it to his English major background, but I knew better. He had a lot of practice.
“You can keep trying,” I said. “But it’s a jumpsuit. It’s all connected.”
He grabbed my ass, giving it a squeeze. “That’s too bad. What else is too bad is I’m pretty sure you’re not wearing underwear.”
