Fiction. Literature. Romance. HTML:The follow-up to the runaway bestsellers ON DUBLIN STREET and DOWN LONDON ROAD

Despite her outgoing demeanor, Olivia is painfully insecure around the opposite sex—usually, she can’t get up the nerve to approach guys she’s interested in. But moving to Edinburgh has given her a new start, and, after she develops a crush on a sexy postgrad, she decides it’s time to push past her fears and go after what she wants.

Nate Sawyer is a gorgeous player who never commits, but to his close friends, he’s as loyal as they come. So when Olivia turns to him with her relationship woes, he offers to instruct her in the art of flirting and to help her become more sexually confident.

The friendly education in seduction soon grows into an intense and hot romance. But then Nate’s past and commitment issues rear their ugly heads, and Olivia is left brokenhearted. When Nate realizes he’s made the biggest mistake of his life, he will have to work harder than he ever has before to entice his best friend into falling back in love with him—or he may lose her forever….

UGH! I really hate to write less than stellar reviews. I LOVED On Dublin Street.....it was an out of the park home run for me. This wasn't! I almost DNF'd at 25% out of boredom. It just dragged on and on while waiting for something to happen romance wise. This would have been fine if their lives weren't so boring! Virtually nothing was happening with the exception of everyday life. Olivia had such poor self esteem I was left feeling she was fat & ugly too. It was such a focus of her character and it got OLD! I didn't feel Nate's description made him that hot either. Books are my escape from real life so I like the characters to be larger than life & almost perfect. Just my preference. Perhaps ODS was so good that anything else feels like a let down? ( )

This is read by Angelica Lee and her voice could be the most sexy, appealing American female voice I've heard. It is rich and velvety, incredibly clear and a relatively slow tempo, which I love. So many books are read too fast - case in point is Until There Was You by Kristan Higgins, which I'm listening to now - read at a breathless gallop by Xe Sands.

Also I just loved Angelica Lee's male voices, especially with the Irish inflections.

This is the story of Liv and Nate, as told by Liv. It's a great love affair that grows out of a friendship between a woman who has missed the hook up years because her first priority was her dying mother, and a man who lost his first love at 18, and is determined to remain faithful to Alana and treat every woman as a tool ever after - a wildly romantic yet stupendously flawed and quite hatefully misguided notion of devotion.

This is the third book in the On Dublin Street series, but the only one on audiobook in my library unfortunately. I suspect I'll learn a lot more about some of the supporting cast if I go back and read the first two books, which I hope to do one day. I really wanted to read On Dublin Street after I read Normal People by Sally Rooney. This book has a similar mien, a similar intelligence, and an Irish setting - can't get more promising than that.

I can't believe this was written in 2014 - 8 years ago. On Dublin Street was 2012, 6 years before Normal People in 2018. And that I'm only reading it now. What a lost years! ( )

I think I need to read every book from Samantha Young now. I have already picked up the rest of this series. I have only read a few of her books and have loved them all.

This is the third book in the series. I highly recommend starting from book one as there are so many characters involved. You may be confused if you are not familiar with many of them already. Plus, the series is great so far and I recommend starting from book one anyway.

This one hooked me right from the start. I loved everything about it. Nate has been my absolute favorite guy so far featured in the series. Can we just say Swoon? I just loved him!

This story really hits on self love and self image. I am plus size and I did not have any issues with how many of these issues were handled. Triggers also for cancer and loss as well so be mindful of that. This really deals with many different levels of loss as many of the characters are working on moving on and coming to terms with what the previous loss means now in their lives.

This one has been my favorite so far. I loved all of the emotions! On to the next! ( )

I am not a fan of friends to lovers stories.
I dislike how he is a man-whore type and the heroine has to watch him flirt then leave with other women. This is not a troupe I like.
But... I will say when he sees the light he really works at redemption. She doesn't just say 'that's great lets be together then', she really makes him work for it.

“You're not ready to hear this yet," he concluded. "But I do need you to know that I'm going to fight for you. I'm not making the mistake of walking away from you again. The only man in you future is me, Liv. The only kids in your future are mine.”
“What would you prefer? Life in a maximum-security prison or trapped in Jurassic Park?"

"Do I have a social standing in this prison?"

"No. You're just an average Joe."

"Then I guess I have to go with Jurassic Park."

"Why?"

"Well, I'll have constant fresh air, for a start, and also if I'm going to be anyone's prey, I'm going to be the prey of an animal that's acting out of instinct rather than psychopathy... You?"

"If you're in Jurassic Park, I'm in Jurassic Park.”
