My Rating: 5 Stars
Sex Scenes: Yes.
Series: Yes, Wanted #6
Subject: Second time is even better than the first.
Synopsis:
I thought all I wanted in my life was to succeed at football and one day take over my grandfather’s ranch. Nothing else mattered but those two things.
Why suddenly did she appear every single night in my dreams? The faceless woman who had me waking up each morning soaked in sweat with my heart nearly pounding right out of my chest.
Who was she?
Where was she?
And why was she the one thing I desired more than anything?
OH MY GOD!
I didn’t know how much I’ve missed this guys until I started reading this book, now I think I need to re read the whole wanted series (which would destroy my review schedule--- worth it!).
I have kept Gunner and Ellie’s story in my heart and memory since I first read about them. There was just something so special and captivating about them, that it became one of those books you can never let go.
The same goes for the rest of the gang, re-living how they met and fell for each other was such a pleasurable experience, it’s not every day that you get to fall in love with perfect love stories all over again.
How do I start talking about these characters I know so much?
Since this book is supposedly intented for readers who have already read most or the complete series, lets start with the fact that we know they are all perfect for each other. Life might put some obstacles in their way, but all of them are strong enough to beat the hell out of them, and so is their love.
For people who are just starting the series, well… I’m guessing you can’t wait to get started with the first book and find out what happens to Ellie and Gunner or Arie and Jeff. Just seat tight and enjoy, you have seen nothing yet!
Getting a glimpse of this pre-love boys we all loved was priceless. We met them when they were already behaving like men, but in this book, we get some hilarious sexcapades and some really bad decision making moments that I couldn’t get enough of.
Watching them fall hard for this group of innocent young girls was more than satisfying, I totally recommend this book! You won’t be able to stop.

EXCERPT
The front door immediately opened, and four girls trickled out. I tried like hell to get a better look at them all.
“Stay here,” Jeff ordered us.
Once the door shut, Josh let out a laugh. “Is it just me, or does Jeff seem like he’s lost his damn mind?”
“Not just you,” Brad stated.
I watched as one of the girls moved closer to Jeff. Her brown hair was piled on top of her head, and her back was toward us.
“I can’t get a good look at her, damn it,” I whispered.
“Me either,” Brad stated.
Josh practically crawled into the front seat. “Do you think that’s the sister?”
“Maybe.”
Another girl walked up and got between Jeff and the girl who might be Ellie. It looked like she had brown hair as well. She looked pretty from what I could tell.
“Shoot me right now. That girl has a fucking hot body,” Josh said.
“You better hope that is a friend of the sister’s and not Ellie herself,” I said with a laugh. “But you’re right. She does have a nice body. So does the one with her back to us.”
I knew that was Ellie. I couldn’t explain how I knew; I simply did. My chest was pounding with the idea of her walking up to the truck and Jeff finally introducing her to us.
“Yeah, so does the blonde,” Brad added. “Can’t really see the other one; Jeff’s blocking her.”
“She has red hair, and trust me, she’s rocking a hot body as well and is pretty as fuck,” Josh stated as he leaned farther up into the front seat. “Why do I feel like I’ve seen her before?”
“Dude, why don’t you just fucking crawl up here already?” I snapped.
“Why didn’t girls look like this when we were in high school?” Brad asked with a sigh.
All three of us laughed as a porch light turned on, lighting it up for us to get a good look at all the girls.
The girl who had her back to us, who I was guessing was Ellie, turned and looked at the truck.
She was beautiful. My heart felt like it dropped to my stomach.
Josh gasped. The fucker actually gasped. “Holy. Shit. No wonder the bastard has been keeping her away from us. She is hot as hell.”
“That she is,” Brad agreed.
My eyes strained to take her all in. I could see her, could tell she was absolutely stunning, but I needed to see her better. Study her face so I could remember it.
Jeff pulled her into his arms and kissed her on the forehead. They took a few steps closer to the truck, and Jeff pointed. He leaned down and said something to her, making her look directly back at the truck again and smile.
My breath caught in my throat. She was stunning. I wondered what she looked like with the sun shining down on that pretty face of hers.
Ellie lifted her hand and waved toward us.
“I’m getting out!” Josh said, trying to scramble into the driver’s seat. I stopped him and pushed his ass back, forcing him to land next to Brad, who was laughing his head off.
I pointed to Josh. “Dude, he told us not to get out. Unless you want to get your ass beat, I suggest you stay in the truck.”
Crossing his arms, Josh looked away.
“Are you pouting?” Brad asked. “You’re freaking pouting. You pansy-ass!”
I couldn’t help but smile before turning back around and looking at Jeff and Ellie. As they moved a bit closer, Jeff stopped and turned to his sister. Her gaze went back to the truck, and it felt like I was having a déjà vu. A chill ran up and down my spine, and I couldn’t shake the feeling I’d seen Ellie somewhere else.
