Hooking up is only the beginning of the fun in this sexy and irresistible second installment of the thrilling New Adult series, Boomerang.
Adam Blackwood has it all. At twenty-two, he’s fabulously wealthy, Ryan Gosling-hot and at the top of the heap in the business world. His life is perfect, until a scandal from his past resurfaces and knocks the tech wunderkind down, throwing his company, Boomerang, a hook-up site for millennials, into chaos.
Three years ago, Adam married his high school love—and then lost her in a tragic accident. Now, the heartbreak and guilt he’s tried to bury with work and women begins to take over his life.
Alison Quick, the twenty-one-year-old daughter of a business tycoon—and the very ex-girlfriend of Boomerang’s former intern, Ethan—has a problem of her own. She’s got one chance to prove to her father that she deserves a place in his empire by grabbing control of Boomerang and taking Adam down.
But as Alison moves in on him, armed with a cadre of lawyers and accountants, she discovers there’s much more to Adam and Boomerang than meets the eye. Will earning her father’s approval come at the price of losing her first real love? It appears so, unless Adam can forgive her for wrecking his life and trying to steal his livelihood. But Alison hopes that old adage is right. Maybe love can conquer all.
My Review
I swear the writing team know as Noelle August keeps getting better and better and with their latest book
Rebound I am a definite fan.
If you read Boomerang than you are no
doubt as excited as I am to finally get my hands on some Adam Blackwood! Yummy!
God this man is a literary hottie, all broody, surfer god, with a secret past
and a crazy sex appeal to make a girl swoon.
I couldn’t wait to delve into this
story.
For those who have read Boomerang
then you no doubt remember the hunky sex on a stick of man and CEO himself
Adam Blackwood.
There was just something about Adam
in Boomerang that drew me to him, making me want to know more, a feeling that I
needed his story ASAP. Well here it is! Squeeeee!!
Being a fan of inter-office romance
stories so needless to say this series is quickly becoming a series I look
forward too. The writing is outstanding the characters beyond likeable and the
story lines fresh and original. There could a little more sex scenes with more
descriptions but even with that criticism the tummy flutters are pretty much
fluttering the whole time, especially when Adam and Alison are together. There
pull to each other simply magnetic!
For me this second book was even
better then the first. I loved it.
Rebound is Adam and Alison’s story.
Yes Alison as is Ethan’s Ex!! Eeepppp!!
Knowing that alone my curiosity was peaked big time.
Knowing that alone my curiosity was peaked big time.
The book starts with Alison
attempting to do some recon about Boomerangs employees to prove to her dad
that's she ready to take on the job she's longed to have. To be a main partner
in the family business, to be given back responsibility, trust, things that she
lost over her actions of the past.
Alison Quick basically has once job
to do, but with a sexy man around to distract her she just might be risking it
all. Will love be worth that risk?
What happens instead is a hot
make-out session with a masked stranger in the back of a car at a Halloween
party. A party where the last thing Ali should be doing is getting caught up in
the heat of a moment with a man. Especially that man. A stranger who once the
mask is off is actually no stranger at all.
And so the story begins...
With Rebound I swear I was
immediately sucked in. Alison and Adam have a crazy palpable chemistry that
simply oozes from the pages. Of course things don’t go as planned and Alison
and Adam meet in the craziest way and both are shocked to learn who the other
really is after getting all hot and heavy at the party. Deciding a mistake is what is simply was, both
agree for the sake of business to move on….but lucky for us that’s easier said
than done.
As the story plays out we are treated
to some amazing moments where the tummy flutters we're going full force at the
way these two tried in vain to deny their want for each other. But thank god
they fail and we get what we want as a reader.
There are a ton of ups and downs for
the couple as they fight the fight of attraction and need they have for one
another.
The things I loved most was watching
them open up to one another about their hurtful pasts, the pain and the trust
they’ve built with one another. Adam and Ali are just so perfect for each other
I couldn’t stop reading, needing to see this attraction play out into a
beautiful love.
This was such a smooth sexy read that
I seriously enjoyed from cover to cover. I
highly recommend it!
highly recommend it!

NOELLE AUGUST is an anagram for Veronica Rossi and Lorin Oberweger. Just kidding, it's a pen name!
VERONICA ROSSI is the author of the New York Times Best-selling UNDER THE NEVER SKY trilogy for young adults. The books are available in more than thirty countries and the film rights have been optioned by Warner Bros.
Veronica completed undergraduate studies at UCLA and lives in Northern California with her husband and two sons. She is fond of dresses with pockets, fluffy dogs, and cheese and chocolate -- but not together.
LORIN OBERWEGER began her storytelling career by captivating her first-grade class with tales of her summers on a kibbutz in Israel.
Lorin had never been to Israel.
While teacher/parent night put an end to her first experiments in fiction, she’d already caught the bug and eventually made a career of all things story.
As a long-time independent editor and story development guru, Lorin's client successes range from small press publications to major bestselling novels. She's an award-winning author and has also worked behind the scenes as a ghostwriter on a variety of projects. Her work has received starred Kirkus reviews and glowing mentions in The New York Times.
Oh, she did get to see a kibbutz, eventually, and found out she had it pretty much right all along.
Veronica and Lorin met at a writing workshop and just knew they were destined to create awesome things together.
