Be With Me by J. Lynn


     Be With Me, by J. Lynn, was the perfect second book in this series.
Teresa Hamilton is having a rough year- she’s in love with her big brother’s best friend, but he hasn’t spoken to her since they shared a truly amazing, mind-blowing, change-your-life kiss. She got out of a terrible relationship. And now an injury is threatening to end her dance career for good. It’s time for Plan B-college. And maybe a chance to convince Jase that what they have together is real.
Jase Winstead has a huge secret that he’s not telling anyone. Especially not his best friend’s incredibly beautiful sister. Even though he and Teresa shared the hottest kiss of his life, he knows that his responsibilities must take priority. He certainly doesn’t have time for a relationship. But it doesn’t help that all he can think about is kissing the one girl who could ruin everything for him.
As they’re thrown together more and more, Jase and Tess can’t keep denying their feelings for each other. But familiar danger looms and tragedy strikes. As the campus recovers, the star-crossed couple must decide what they’re willing to risk to be together, and what they’re willing to lose if they’re not…

     This book is most definitely worthy of another five. This is only the second time I have read this one, and somehow it made me feel more feels than the first time. Like the first book, the characters in this one had some serious issues to deal with, but it felt different. They had to learn to trust each other, and themselves, and it was pretty fantastic to be a part of that (and yes I realize that these are just characters in a story, but they’re more than that and you know it). I know I laughed in this book, and towards the end, there’s a scene with Jase’s mom that makes you want to happy cry with her. There are some sad parts, and some steamy ones too. It really does take you on a roller-coaster ride, but it’s never too much. While some stuff is unexpected (the tragedy they speak of in the summary), not everything is, and I really liked that in this book. And the character Tess is just twenty kinds of awesome. I haven’t read the next book yet, so I don’t know if any of the same characters are in it, but I am seriously hoping a whole lot that they are, they have all been amazing so far.
