Kinda Don’t Care by Lani Lynn Vale Release Review

I received a copy of this book for the author/publisher to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

Kinda Don’t Care is the first book in the Simple Man Series from Lani Lynn Vale. Can we all just take a moment and appreciate the beauty of this cover. I am so in love with it.

She is in a white dress that dances around her ankles, and her hair tumbles in a long sheet of curls down her back. A veil covers her beautiful eyes and she smiles directly at him. Janie is everything Rafe’s ever imagined she would be on her wedding day. Breathtaking. Gorgeous. Perfect. The moment he sees her walking down the aisle toward him, he knows that she is the one. Then she passes him, making her way to the man shes to marry. A man that wasn’t him. A man that he knows with one hundred percent certainty isn’t good enough for her. It seems that her father isn’t the only one who is having a hard time giving her away. Rafe only wishes he knew why. Everything about Janie sparks protective instincts he doesn’t feel for anyone, not even his own fiance. What he feels for the bride, however isn’t merely a simply attraction. He knows that something is there just beneath the surface…if only he could reach it. It has to be something huge too, otherwise he wouldn’t be drinking whiskey straight from the flask in a church pew and wondering how many years he would do in prison if he shot the groom in front of about a hundred witnesses-half of those being cops. He was good…but not that good. A near-death experience cost Rafe almost six months of his memory, but right now he can’t help but feel like a huge mistake is being made on both of their parts. One that is going to cost him everything. Then she says I do.

Good gosh can I have a Rafe of my very own?? You are going to fall so in love with this guy that it is not even funny. If you have read Lani Lynn Vale before you know that you are in for some fantastic reading. If you have never read her I am telling you now that you are missing out on some of the best books there are out there to read. You are going to love Janie too and you get to meet them both and watch Janie grow through the years from a girl with a crush on the man to a woman who is so in love with Rafe. However a accident involving Rafe takes his memories of the last six months and of Janie away. This is a second chance romance of two characters with an age difference that doesn’t matter because they so belong together no matter what. I loved this book and I think everyone will too.
