Animal Attraction by Jill Shalvis
4.0
Animal Attraction, the second book in the Animal Magnetism series by Jill Shalvis, was a quick and fun read that reaffirmed my love for the series that started with Animal Magnetism.
Dell and Jade had a chemistry that ignited off of the page and straight into my heart, and theirs. Afraid to love, and of commitment, Dell is just moving through on the surface of life. Never wanting to get to close and risk being abandoned, he refuses to go deeper - until he meets Jade. She makes him want love, connection, intimacy and forever, even if that scares the hell out of him. Jade is terrified of life after being brutally attacked almost two years ago. Paralyzed by her fear, she runs from the memories. What she finds is herself, the person she was always meant to be and Dell. He makes her want to love and live without boundaries or fear, for herself instead of what is expected of her. Dell & Jade’s story was heart-warming and gradual, the build up to their happy-ever-after set to a slow simmer - and I loved every minute of it.
The secondary cast continues to amaze me in this installment of the series and gives the book a well-rounded feel. The interactions between this exceptional cast of characters are funny, witty, realistic and make me want to devour every single word within the series. I will admit, some of the aspects of the story felt very familiar to Animal Magnetism, but did not detract from the overall story in my opinion. Dell & Jade stood strongly on their two feet and words.
Animal Attraction kept me captivated from page one through to the end. Ms. Shalvis continues to amaze me with her phenomenal writing skills and storytelling capabilities. This is definitely a book, and series, that you don’t want to miss!
