My Review of "Just Once" by Julianna Keyes

Just Once by Julianna Keyes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

ARC provided courtesy of "Irresistible Reads" Book Tour ****

Being a full-time student, and not to mention a full-time employee, doesn't leave me much time to indulge in reading. With that being said, when I do have a chance to read, not only do I want to be amazed, but I also want to be captivated by a story that's well-crafted, but also, I want to get lost in the world of characters that are "real," and not to mention, multidimensional. Overall, I want to read a story that compels me to continue reading until the very end.

While reading this tale of "Summer Love", not only was I pleased with the way that Ms. Keyes developed the characters of Kate and Shane, but I also liked the fact that she gave life to the other characters existing in their world as well. In my opinion, not only was the story evenly paced, but the dialog detailing Shane's seduction of Kate, was especially "Uber-Hawt..." (As I was reading those lines, I kept thinking that I'd never quite heard a male character make their move, quite like "that" before...)

My only issues with this book are the fact that it started a little slow, and also, with the fact that the epilog was almost nonexistent. Personally, I wanted to know what happens with Shane and Kate.

Perhaps there's a sequel in the works, I don't know, but I do know this, one book was definitely not enough.

Giving this one, 3 1/2 stars...
