4.8/5 Stars 
 At first I was skeptic about this book because I did not think very much of Calla in Be With Me other than the fact that she was really funny. Starting this book off I was not impressed at all especially after reading Be With Me, so the bar was set kinda high going into this one. 
 Calla has to go home to her hometown when she finds out her mother(who is not dead) stole all her money and put her in some serious debt. Calla goes to her family owned bar Mona's and meets sexy ass bartender Jackson "Jax" James. That is hot already. Call and Jax sorta team up to find her drug abusing mothe before a drug lord has her killed in order to settle her mothers debt for not delivering some stuff she was holding(aka drugs). So the story line had me interested and I was sure it was gonna be drama filled, which I love. 
 So Calla was really funny, she had the funniest lines in this book; I laughed out loud in public quite a bit. But she bugged me so much because she just made some really dumb decisions. She made up for some of those dumb decisions by admitting she was dumb, so I felt a little better. She just did not understand how serious the situation involving her mother was and she took zero precautions. At first it bugged me at how inexperienced she was but I understood that her decisions were expected since she was in foreign territory. But as the story progressed I realized that I liked Calla a lot and she had been through some serious shit growing up. Her story was so sad; she thought she wasn't beautiful because of her scars, and that there was no way Jax could possibly want her. But his acceptance of her slowly changed Calla into a new person. Let's face it Jax was friggin amazing throughout this whole book. He was so determined to protect her, he made her see how beautiful she really was, and showed her how to live. 
 Man was this book sooo hot and steamy and I loved Calla and Jax's relationship with each other. I liked that we got to see more of Cam, Avery, Teresa, and Jase in this book too. The new characters were awesome. I loved Katie, Roxy, Reece, Clyde, and Nick. I wanted to punch Aimee with two ee's in the throat though. There was so much to love about this book and I have to say it had the best ending ever. As you know there is a theme with these books that there is always a I Love You Moment that happens and when that moment happened it was sooo beautiful and I seriously cried like someone died, but they were tears of pure happiness. If this book was letting you down at some point, it will totally redeem itself in that moment. That's how talented Jennifer Armentrout is that she writes such beautiful love stories that stay way with you forever. I loved this book so much that I read it again after I finished it. Plus I had to sideline Cam and Jase because Jax has become my man in this series. I need a Jax in my life.
