Candy Ray
Sunshine—Yes, that is my real name, thank you very much, Mom and Dad—knew two
things.
One, she was
going to work her butt off and open her very own coffee shop, even if she had
to die doing it.
Two, Banks
Valentine was the world’s worst ex-boyfriend in the history of ex-boyfriends.
Even if they were only boyfriend and girlfriend for one evening. She wouldn’t
sneeze on him even if he was on fire.
***
Banks Valentine
also knew two things.
One, he was an
immature jerk when he was in high school, and Candy Ray Sunshine probably could
open a coffee shop if she put her mind to it. But he still thinks that she
should shoot a little higher, anything that gets her the heck out of Kilgore,
Texas.
Two, he likes
riding bulls. It’s a dangerous job, and when he gets on the back of one of
those thousand-pound death machines, he can finally feel his head clear enough
that he can think.
***
Candy and Banks
would never get along. Not after what he said, and definitely not after what
she did.
Then again,
neither one of them expected that night to end the way it did, either—the night
that both of them refused to talk about the next morning.
Well,
here’s another top of the charts for Lani Lynn Vale. I have been waiting for
Banks story since The Valentine Boys series began. There’s just something about
a big headed, ex-jock and military man who grew up on a farm. Those tight jeans
and wide smile will do a girl good, anytime. Throw in the fact that he is a
closet hopeless romantic. My heart was just swooning when we find out the
little things that he did for Candy back in the day. All this time they thought
there was a mutual hatred, when in turn, there was a mutual attraction. Candy
herself is no slouch. She fits right in with the Valentine crew and can
definitely hold her own.
I
am pretty sure that each review I write, I mention that this one was better
than her last. I keep waiting for a mediocre book coming from Lani and it has
yet to happen. That’s a great thing of course, but the talent she has for
writing is astounding. I love how raw and real each book is. How unabashedly
true these relationships are and how well the characters mesh with each other.
I am never, ever disappointed in one of her books and look forward to every
release. Do you want an author that you just one-click without needing the
synopsis? Then make that Lani Lynn Vale. She’s one of the best!!
I
was so excited for this book! We got Candy Ray Sunshine’s and Banks Valentine’s
story. I loved how it was put into two sections. Section one for the first 15
years then part two is present. And like usual, the Valentine boys sure are my
favorites…Banks included.
Banks
and Candy went to school together. Banks being the popular one and Candy the
loner goth girl. To say they didn’t get along was an understatement but one day
she thought things were turned around for good. Unfortunately, that was not the
case. Things got worse and both Banks and Candy ended up having devastation on
both ends. Fast forward to the present and not much has changed, well, so Candy
thinks anyway….
