Off Limits is a pretty decent story about a girl trying to become independent and live her own life and a guy trying to overcome his own personal demons and learning to fall in love. I really enjoyed the companion novel to this, Off Sides, and I wanted to see how Sawyer would write Emily's character and tell her story, since we don't get much of her in the first book. I loved seeing Ryan and Danny again in Off Limits, because their story was so great, it was nice to know where their relationship progresses to. The intimate scenes were great, but I also enjoyed getting to know Nix and Emily and seeing how they made each other better. 
 Emily was a great character. I definitely didn't like what little I saw of her in Off Sides, but I loved her in this one. She tried her best to break free from the mold her mother cast for her and wanted to follow her own dreams of majoring in journalism. I loved how Emily stood up for herself against her mom, even when threatened with taking away everything that she's grown accustomed to. She also does her best not to let people think she's some spoiled trust fund baby who can't think or do anything for herself and I liked that she didn't let anyone push her around. 
 I think Emily and Nix complimented each other very nicely. Nix is pretty aloof and does his best to keep people at bay, but its hard with Emily because the attraction is clearly there. Being a former Marine, he suffers from PTSD and also some other, more personal issues of his own. As Emily slowly breaks through his wall, it was great getting in his head and seeing what was really bothering him. I loved when he eventually shared the deepest and darkest part of himself with Emily and how they handled the situation. 
 Overall, I really enjoyed Emily and Nix's story, even if it wasn't as emotional and touching as Ryan and Danny's. Bennett's writing is fun, realistic, and sizzling. Her characters are distinct and lovable. I think any New Adult fan would highly enjoy this book.
