Exes with Benefits edition by Nicole Williams Contemporary Romance eBooks Reviews
What a wonderful read. I would say sweet but I don't want to give the impression that it was a syrupy concoction bound to cause a toothache because it wasn't. It's about being young and in love, about loss, grief, anger, self destructive behavior and most importantly the ability to change.
Canaan and Maggie met at the tender age of five when her parent were killed and she went to live with her grandmother. It was only a matter of time before they fell in love. They're both eighteen, in love and Maggie is pregnant, so they get married. Now, I know what your probably thinking...... and yes, she loses the baby, BUT, that's not why their marriage fell apart and ultimately Maggie left and fled to Chicago.
Additionally, the title really doesn't fit the story. Maggie's grandmother has died and she's returning to Missouri to settle her grandmother's affairs, as well as, deliver divorce papers to Canaan. Canaan refuses to sign unless she gives him 30 days to prove that he's changed and still loves her. While this was told from Maggie's POV, you never wondered how Canaan was feeling. Hands down, he was the star of the show. From the beginning, he was very c!ear how much he loved her, that he took responsibility for the demise of their marriage and that he wanted a second chance.
This was a sweet and steamy read that kept me thoroughly entertained and smiling at the end.
I've been in book rut of epic proportions this year.
This was a pleasant read that kept my attention.
I'm a sucker for small town second chance romances.
What can I say, it's a weakness.
The first few pages left me teary-eyed and craving more.
Anyone that has suffered the heartbreak of leaving someone they loved not because they wanted to but because it was the healthiest choice can relate to this book, especially those first few pages.
Maggie is a beautiful and talented artist in living in Chicago when her Grandmother passes away. After five years, she returns to the small town that raised her to plan a funeral and to confront the husband she left behind with divorce papers.
Not so much has changed in the small town; the barn is still standing and the townspeople are still nosy-as-ever, but the boy she married at the age of eighteen is no longer the broken, guilt-ridden boy she left in the middle of the dusty road, but a successful man bound and determined to make amends.
This book at times was very, 'Sweet Home Alabama' ....ish. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the realistic and playful banter between Maggie and Canaan. The angst and sexual tension throughout this book is well-written and steamy like hot Missouri day, and being the angst wh*re that I am, I enjoyed that.
Maggie and Canaan's relationship was very well written. Their relationship really came alive on the pages; it was realistic and as a reader I wanted them to succeed. There were a few cheesy moments, but that's romance.
I also like how the author made point to recognize that while Maggie and Canaan had this powerful sexual chemistry, that there were other parts of their relationship that also needed to change, and not all that change was on Canaan alone.
So why not five stars?
I think the ending scene was cut too soon. I felt robbed in a weird way.
Secondly, being a small town romance, I really wanted more small town interaction with strong secondary characters. Maggie and Canaan's relationship was obviously the forefront but more meaningful interaction with others would have added more conflict to the story.
Overall, I really enjoyed the book. This is the second book by Nicole Williams that I've read and I will definitely check out more of her books in the future.
