Review: 4.5 Stars

The thing I liked most about Love in Rewind was that it was different from a lot of the other romance books I’ve read.  It starts out with the main character Emily talking about issues in their marriage and then it’s as if she rewound the tape to the beginning and we you get to read about their love story from day one up to and past the issues that she was talking about in the beginning.  Another thing that makes this book stand out is that Tali Alexander made it interactive.  By that I mean that Emily and her best friend Sara have a language all their own.  They speak in 80’s song titles to get their feeling across to each other.  For each of these song titles the story actually has a link that you can press on to hear the song and get the lyrics.

There is an age difference in Louis and Emily but I didn’t find that to be a problem.  They had suck a strong connection and passion for each other that it didn’t matter.  They were meant to be.  I liked the character development and not only the development of Emily and Louis but also the other characters too like her sister and Sara.  There are some major twists and turns in this book and on more than one occasion just when I thought I had it all figured out the story changed and went a different way.  I don’t like to give spoilers so I’ll stop at that and let you get Love in Rewind for yourself.  I highly recommend it if you want a romantic and sexy book.

EXCERPT:

I didn’t need to look back to know who was behind me. His scent alone added another milliliter of arousal to my underwear. I couldn’t turn around, he was leaning into me so close. I could feel his heat as his wide muscular chest pressed against me, enveloping me. Heart don’t fail me, now. Please don’t stop beating, I kept repeating to myself as my heartbeat started increasing to presto speed.

“Are you trying to make me come in my pants in front of all my clients, little girl?” he asked.

Fuck, I need to breathe. He continued whispering into my ear, making every hair on my body stand at attention. “I’ve been jerking off to the vision of your tits in that white top for the last two weeks.”

I think I officially stopped breathing when he said, “your tits.”

“Please tell me you’re at least eighteen. I really don’t want to go to jail. But I think it might be worth it even if you’re not.”

Okay, Emily, snap out of it. Say something adult and memorable. This was my chance.

“Yeah, I’m eighteen…” I finally said, a little breathlessly. He got a little closer as his whole body shook laughing at my pathetic comment. I could faintly feel something hard bulging out and grazing my lower back. I was afraid of having a spontaneous orgasm if he got any closer.

“Thank … you … God. So you must be Jenna’s little sister?” he asked, sending chills through my overheated body. My underwear was soaked by now. Even I could smell how aroused I was.

“If Mike knew what I wanted to do to his hot little sister-in-law right now, he’d have my balls.”

I still hadn’t turned around. My legs were shaking; my brain was drawing a blank. I was much braver in my fantasies. Thank God there was no one in the kitchen to see us. WAIT! Reality hit me—where was everybody? Shouldn’t the other staff members be helping me with the clean up? Oh my God, can somebody see us? I thought. I remembered the one-way glass and started to turn my head around to check just in case anyone else was there. That’s when Louis Bruel’s lips brushed my cheek as I turned my head. I guess that was the official moment I stopped breathing. I gathered all my strength and turned to face him inside his loose grip. I looked up at him, trying to seem in control of the situation. After what felt like twenty minutes of me craning my head up to his towering height, he broke our silent stare-off.

“I can’t believe how beautiful your eyes are, little girl. They remind me of the water in Turks and Caicos. Your hair is the color of the sand there.”

“Nothing really to tell, what you see is what you get.”

I am every woman out there that has fantasies in her head. I am a daughter, a granddaughter, a sister, a wife, a lover, a mother, and a friend. I happen to also be a Doctor of Pharmacy and a business owner by day, and now a writer by night. Writing and reading help me escape the scary world we live in. I hope my stories help readers experience many different emotions and ultimately, I hope I make them smile…

Writing keeps me sane. I hope reading does the same for you.
