BOOK SUMMARY
Candis Terry returns to Sweet, Texas for the
last time when former Marine Jake Wilder discovers how truly sweet love can be.
When
the one you’ve always wanted
At sixteen, Annabelle Morgan hoped her crush
on Jake Wilder was just a passing phase. Now she’s twenty-nine and nothing has
changed except Jake. The once-carefree marine has come home with a giant chip
on his shoulder. He insists a single mom like Annie deserves more than he can
offer. Yet no matter how gruff his gorgeous exterior may be, Jake s toe-curling
kisses convince her that this attraction is definitely mutual.
Becomes
the one who wants you back
Butting heads with feisty Annie was always a
thrill. Add other body parts to the mix, and Jake is in serious trouble. He
can’t be a forever-and-family guy and Annie s not a friends-with-benefits kind
of woman. But love has a way of changing the best-laid plans, and surrender has
never been so tempting.
The outcome is truly sweet.

EXCERPT
“Forget something?”
Her eyes narrowed just slightly and the silky blond ponytail hanging down her
back swung to the side as she tilted her head in a way that suggested she was
primed for a challenge.
“Not that I’m
aware.”
“Uh-huh.” She
tucked the stub of a standard yellow pencil behind her ear. “Guess you’ve been
away too long to remember that most folks walk in here wearing a smile. Looks
like you left yours at home.”
“Guess I’m just not
much in the mood.”
“Seriously?” Her
eyes narrowed a bit more, yet somehow a shower of silver sparks still managed
to flash. “Why?”
He hated to use the
word “Duh,” but it seemed so apropos.
“So . . .” Her
shoulders lifted and dropped. “What? You’re going to let that walking cane
snuff out the eternally grinning smartass that lives inside of you?”
Her comment hit its
mark with stinging success.
Jake clenched his
teeth and lowered his gaze to the laminated menu he’d been able to recite by
heart since he’d been twelve. “Annabelle, how about you go away and give me a
minute to look over the menu?”
“Because that would
be a total waste of time, Jacob.”
His gaze jerked up
again just as she shifted her weight to a position she probably intended as a
show of obstinacy. Yet all it really managed to do was push her full breasts
against that snug white Bud’s Diner T-shirt. Instinctively his gaze
dropped lower to the little black skirt hugging nicely rounded hips and the
pair of tanned shapely legs that ended with the sparkly blue sneakers on her
feet. Liking what he saw, his gaze took that same slow ride back up her body.
When the hell had
little Annie Morgan grown up and gotten so curvy?
“You can stare at
that menu all day long,” she said through lips that were pink, plump, and
glossy. Lips that looked like they needed to be kissed.
The unexpected and
unwanted thought was like a splash of ice water in his face. Annie had been a
pain in his backside for as long as he could remember. The last thing he should
be doing was thinking about her damned mouth. Or her curvy body. To his dismay
and against his commands, awareness tightened his body below the belt.
CAT'S REVIEW
"Truly Sweet" is just that...Truly Sweet! I adored both main characters - Annie - a single mom working to survive and who has had a crush on Jake for forever. And Jake, a wounded Marine - both physically and emotionally. At times, I just wanted to smack Jake in the back of the head as he would frustrate me a bit, but realized he had his reasons. Annie was a doll. They are exactly what the other one needs. I enjoy stories of the heroine saving the Hero, but not in the traditional way. Ms. Terry has written a story that has laughter, grief, heartache and fun. It's an engaging tale that grabbed me and kept me till the end. This is the last book of the series. I have read others in the series but not all. However, for me, it didn't seem to matter. That said, I would highly recommend, not just Truly Sweet, but the series as I've enjoyed the ones I've read and have every intention of completing the series soon! (received copy for honest review)
