As far as book boyfriends go, Vincent Moretti does NOT disappoint...

After six years of being partners, Vincent and Jill Henley have seen a lot of grisly stuff, and they've got the good cop/bad cop thing down pat. But Jill takes a three month break to help her ailing mother, and comes back with a fiancé...and Vincent is none too happy about it, for reasons that have nothing to do with work.

Vincent is such a strong character that he jumps off the page at you, and his gruff demeanor is the most well-written one I've ever come across. His seemingly non-communicative ways are just the opposite, and Jill is definitely the only woman who understands what he's trying to say (well, most of the time). He's brilliant, focused, driven, and content in his life; his family is wonderful (can I become a Moretti?? Pretty please?). His partner is bubbly, energetic, fun...everything he's not, and he's fine with that.

But the sparks between them are so volatile, it's a miracle they didn't set the station on fire years ago.

Jill accepts that Vincent doesn't want a personal relationship with her, and decides to move on. Her fiancé is a great guy - he's so nearly perfect that she begins to question why they're together. Then she adds in the small things Vincent starts doing for her, that he never did before, and she has to wonder if Vincent wants what he can't have, or if he really wants her. It's a tough one for her to figure out, because even though she's usually in tune with Vincent, her own feelings cloud her normally sharp thought processes.

When these two DO get together, it's not smooth sailing, but damn, is it hot! They are the perfect partners in both life and work, and seeing Jill realize her own shortcomings while Vincent digs deep to uncover emotions he didn't even think he was capable of having led to the most entertaining, hot, fantastic read of the series this far - and, being as the first two were outstanding, that's saying something! Highly recommended.

Cuff Me New York Finest Lauren Layne 9781455561230 Books Reviews

Vincent. *sigh* I get that his story was supposed to be the epic series ender. I kinda wish it had been for me. I have intimate knowledge of this broody, silent, closed-off type, and they’re a lot of work with very little reciprocity. Maybe because Vincent didn’t click for me, my overall view was skewed, making the story seem slow and without much action until about two-thirds in. Totally not typical of how I normally feel when enjoying Lauren Layne books.

So, no, this wasn’t a fun read for me, except for getting to spend more time with the lively Moretti clan. I love this rowdy bunch of Italians and the women who’ve taken on their sons. I sincerely hope that LL will reconsider telling Elena’s story in the future. She’s such a strong character that it would be a shame for her to not get her own HEA. Plus we would get to revisit the Moretti’s again.

Obviously for personal reasons this wasn’t the book for me, but don’t let that sway you. Lauren Layne creates such unique, engaging characters that all her books are worth reading.

3.5 stars
4.5 stars -- THIS BOOK!!!  OK, I read the first two books in this series quite a while ago (I got them both as ARCs), and both ones had a lot of promise, but there were just things about them that niggled me and prevented me from loving them.  But THIS was the book I was most looking forward to!  I mean, Vincent and Jill!!!!  But of course I didn't get an ARC of this one.  And since it was above my personal ebook price threshold, I put off buying a copy.  But since I'm going to be meeting this author THIS SATURDAY, and this is one of the few books of hers where there is actual paperback copies available, I sucked it up!!  AND I'M SO GLAD I DID!!!

These two were everything I was hoping they would be from the glimpses I got of them in the previous 2 books!  And btw, you TOTALLY don't need to read the other books to read this one, but the Moretti family is pretty fun, and definitely a highlight of the series, so you may find yourself wanting to read them afterwards.  They were just as hilarious and interfering and awesome in this book as in the others.

I was concerned with the subplot of Jill being engaged to another man, but that all played out a little differently than I had been anticipating.  I can honestly say that I'm very happy with how that was dealt with, and what it brought to the story.  I'm very sensitive to cheating subjects, but there were no problems.

I loved Jill and Vin on their own, but I especially love them together.  They just fit together so beautifully.  She was all sunshine and light and fun and teasing, and he was gruff and awkward and more withdrawn and quiet.  But they just worked together, you know?  I loved the way their relationship progressed, and even the stumbling blocks that they inevitably hit weren't drawn out and didn't feel cliche.  Vincent actually really got to me, I loved that there was no horrible event that made him more closed off, but that it was an aspect of his personality...and I loved the observations that Mama Moretti had about him, and why he appears the way he does.  And he was so freaking cute in a growly guy way!  When he was trying, I just melted.  And Jill was totally like girl crush territory!  She was just...I don't know.  Not without flaws, but I would want to be friends with her.

And as with all the books in the series, the Moretti family really stood out.  I can't even tell you how many times I highlighted their interactions.  And I enjoyed the mystery of the Lenora Birch murder, and not just because it was one letter off from my own name.

Honestly, the only downside for me is that I was thrown off by the pacing.  I expected things to move much faster, and I was always thrown off when I'd start the next chapter and 2 weeks had gone by.  It wasn't terrible, it just wasn't what I was expecting.  Add that to the fact that I had to break up my reading b/c of things happening in my real life, it just made for a different reading experience.  And, I kind of wanted an extended epilogue because I'm greedy....

But yeah.  So happy.  Seriously, so happy with this one.  And isn't it always relieving when the book you're most looking forward to actually lives up to your anticipation??
