She’s The One and it’s a strong opener for a new series. We are introduced to a lot of new characters, we begin to see how they all fit together, and in addition the group from the first series is around just enough to make it interesting but not so much as they take over. ~ Slick, Guilty Pleasures
Description:
Sometimes you see love clearly. And sometimes it has to smack you in the face.
When a stranger walks up and punches him, Ryan Kaye assumes there’s a good reason. But he’s stunned to learn it’s over a one-night stand that never happened —with his friend’s sister, straight-laced Amanda Dixon. When Ryan confronts her about the lie, Amanda apologizes, but Ryan realizes he doesn’t want her to be sorry…he wants the night they supposedly spent together.
Amanda’s not looking to add anyone to her long list of commitments, so she was only trying to let a nice guy down easy by telling him a fling with Ryan broke her heart. So what if the fling only happened in her dreams? But when Ryan Kaye tempts her with the chance to go crazy and fulfill a few fantasies, she can’t resist. Thank goodness one night isn’t enough time to fall in love…

**Reviewers note: Erin Nicholas has written a five part prequel that bridges her Bradford series with this new series. You can find them at erinnicholas.blogspot.com.
I was so excited when Erin Nicholas announced she was beginning to write a new series. I loved
her Bradford series and was so sad to see it end, but now in addition to the cast from that series, we get a whole new group of characters to love and I could not be happier. First out is She’s The One and it’s a strong opener for a new series. We are introduced to a lot of new characters, we begin to see how they all fit together, and in addition the group from the first series is around just enough to make it interesting but not so much as they take over.
I really love it when opposites attract and that seems to be the case with Ryan Kaye and Amanda Dixon. Ryan has a reputation as a party loving ladies man and Amanda is known as the mild mannered always does the right thing sister of the Dixon sisters. When Amanda’s baby sister dares her to spend the weekend thinking like their sister, Emma she suddenly realizes it’s time to cut loose and have some fun. She just has no idea that a little white lie she told will come back to bite her and the man wishing to do the biting is none other than Ryan Kaye, the man who stars in her dreams and fantasies.
I really liked Amanda despite her being over protective and somewhat tame. I understand why she was like that but I also liked that she felt she could let loose with Ryan. The fact that Ryan respected her for the person she is and wanted to be more than her good time guy made their situation very fun and interesting.
It was fun to watch Ryan throughout this book and see him deal with his feelings about relationships and women in general. I love that there was more to Ryan than meets the eye and found him quite fascinating. It was interesting that Amanda saw so much in him that most people don’t and was even angry that so many people in his life didn’t seem to know much about him.
I loved the ups and downs and everything in between in this book. Erin never lets us get too comfortable and it keeps this book moving and the characters busy. There is so much humor in this book and some great words of wisdom from Dooley from the first series. I do want to note that if you haven’t read the first series you can absolutely read this book and not be lost. While the characters cross over, this series will stand on its own. As usual Erin’s intimate scenes are smokin’ hot, often frantic but sometimes sweet and definitely enough to get you revved up!
Erin Nicholas has written another fantastic group of family and friends that will keep us entertained while this series plays out. In She’s the One you can’t beat the intriguing characters, the witty yet emotional dialog, and the plot that has set in motion a series that is very, very promising.
