Book Summary
There’s no such thing as a little in love…
Elle Wheaten’s priorities: friends, career, and kick-ass shoes. Then there’s the muscular wall of stubbornness that’s security expert Archer Hunt—who comes before everything else.

My Thoughts
*ARC provided by Publisher*
Archer Hunt and Elle Wheaton are like two competing flames trying their best to outdo one another, only to produce a fire when they shift too close together. But underneath that explosive chemistry is an innate understanding of exactly what it is that lurks beneath the surface, way down deep in their bones. These two get each other in a way no one else can, see each other in a way no one else does, and they trust each other to have one another’s backs in a way few other people could or would.
It is that undeniable chemistry and innate understanding that make Elle and Archer two of my all time favorite Jill Shalvis characters. They are passionate, sweet, loyal, and protective, even when they drive each other absolutely crazy. Or maybe especially when they drive each other absolutely crazy. They are unique and memorable and they live and breathe on each and every page of this book.
If you’ve not yet picked up a Jill Shalvis novel, do yourself a favor and rush out to buy Accidentally on Purpose. Because while I’ve loved all of Jill’s stories and characters over the years, there is something truly special and memorable about this one. I absolutely adored it, everything from the characters to the plot to the setting, and I devoured the whole thing in one sitting. It was compelling, entertaining, fascinating, intriguing, and positively mesmerizing.
And I loved every single word of it.
