Accidentally on Purpose by Jill Shalvis

5.0

Elle Wheaten has her priorities straight friends, career, and shoes or she thinks she does. Until she's in the presence of the muscular wall of stubbornness, security expert, Archer Hunt, who comes before everything else. From the second they met eleven years ago they've denied their attraction for each other, until she comes into his office to yell at him about squirrels and her sister comes to town. However, she has an idea that consists of dating other men until she's able to get over Archer... which doesn't stand a chance at working.

Archer has watched over Elle since the night he sacrificed his law enforcement career in order to save her. She has made something for herself and he doesn't feel like he's good enough for her, so he's standing back and keeping her safe. However, he still wants her and their chemistry is strong enough it could cause an explosion. He stands back wondering if she ever thinks about the night he saved her life and discovers that she carries a part of him with her. The knife he gave her. He's been watching her date other guys and each time sabotages her date in some way, because he can't stand it.

When Elle gets mad and things between them start to heat up. Archer has a mission that involves proving to Elle that they're perfect together. Will Elle forgive Archer for his interference? Will the mess Elle's sister has made of her life come back and effect the life Elle has built?

Jill Shalvis has written a winner. I love all her books, but this one is my new favorite!! I loved the characters and their interactions especially Spence and Elle they make such great friends. Archer and Elle were hilarious and had some of the best chemistry I've seen in a long time. She may always be mad at him but he takes it in stride and makes up for it. I'm glad that we got to see these two see each other exposed and vulnerable when they try to always be put together and shut off from the rest of the world. Great new book and one I highly RECOMMEND!!
