Elementary school teacher Liliana Serrano has never been one to let
others determine her future. Whether it’s her pack of three overly
protective brothers or her Puerto-Rican, American heritage, she stands
on her own. Which is exactly how she entered her arrangement with Adam
Aquilani. The hot formula one driver is aloof, detached and not
interested in relationship. After a cheating fiancé, no strings attached
sex was just what she needed.
Except one year later, they’re still hooking up and things aren’t so clear cut anymore. Especially when a surprise pregnancy enters the picture.
Adam is determined to marry Lily and raise their child as a family. But Lily refuses to settle for anything less than love.
As the two go on a journey of discovering, secrets are revealed, testing the strength of their connection. Can they learn not to give the past the power to define their future?

So
after reading The Scale by Mika Jolie, I was eager to read another of her
books. She recently released the second book in her Martha’s Way series called;
Need You Now. I can honestly say it was a joy and a pleasure to read.
So we
start the story with Lily; she was cheated on by her fiancé, and now it would appear
her “f**k buddy” has also been unfaithful. So after ignoring his calls and text
messages, she was very surprised to see him asleep on her sofa.
Adam
is not just any man, he is a F1 racing driver, who travels all over Europe, and
even though this relationship was just supposed to be physical and casual, the thought
of walking away from Lily has his stomach in knots.
But
then something BIG happens that changes everything! Lily want’s to finish with
Adam, but Adam wants to keep things as they are; until the truth comes out and
his head is spinning…I am going to stop the story there, as I don’t want to
spoil the story.
This
story is truly amazing and I LOVED every second of it. I loved both Lily and
Adam’s characters, but I truly loved Lily’s brother Rafa!
Mika’s
writing simply flows off the page and at times it feels like all this is
happening right in front of your eyes. I couldn’t find one plot hole. This book
could be read as a stand-alone, but I think it would be much better if you read
it in the series order.
Need
You Now is such a fabulous book; you really need to read it. I give it 10 out
of 10!
