Review & Excerpt Tour ~ ACCIDENTALLY ON PURPOSE by Jill Shalvis
Monday, January 30, 2017
From New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis comes the next sexy, standalone novel in the Heartbreaker Bay series…
About ACCIDENTALLY ON PURPOSE:
There’s no such thing as a little in love . . .
Elle Wheaton’s priorities: friends, career, and kick-ass shoes. Then there’s the muscular wall of stubbornness that’s security expert Archer Hunt—who comes before everything else. No point in telling Mr. “Feels-Free Zone” that, though. Elle will just see other men until she gets over Archer . . . which should only take a lifetime . . .
There’s no such thing as a little in lust . . .
Archer’s wanted the best for Elle ever since he sacrificed his law-enforcement career to save her. Their chemistry could start the next San Francisco earthquake and he craves her 24/7, but Archer doesn’t want to be responsible for the damage. The alternative? Watch her go out with guys who aren’t him . . .
There is such a thing as . . .
As far as Archer’s concerned, nobody is good enough for Elle. But when he sets out to prove it by sabotaging her dates, she gets mad—and things get hot as hell. Now Archer has a new mission: prove to Elle that her perfect man has been here all along . . .

As always Jill Shalvis delivers a sexy, romantic, heartfelt
story. I am absolutely in love with the Heartbreaker Bay series. There’s this
great group of friends that all just want a little love in their lives. They’re
all sweet and funny and really hard not to love.
What happens when you mix a protective, alpha male with a
stubborn, independent woman? Sparks will fly, that’s what. Elle and Archer have
a past; a past that no one talks about. They have each kept it close to their
hearts each in a different way. Elle has had a crush on Archer for eleven years
and Archer has been fighting his attraction for just as long. Once these two connect, hot adulterated
chemistry ignites and fireworks explode.
I really enjoyed this story of two head strong characters and
a battle of wits. It was fun to see the walls come down and the love flowing.
You can get immersed into this low angst story that will melt you into a
puddle.
As each friend falls I look forward to Spence’s story next.
Excerpt:
#TrainWreck
Elle
made a move to snatch the knife from Archer’s fingers but the bastard held
firm. She started a tug-of-war with him before remembering that she no longer
let anyone see her sweat and forced herself to go still.
Not
that Archer let go. “You still have it,” he said, a whisper of surprise in his
voice.
The
equivalent of a full-on double take from the man who was all but impossible to
shock.
And
yes, of course she still had the knife. Did he really think she wouldn’t? She
didn’t blush very often but she felt heat rush to her face now. Regret, partly.
Mostly
full-blown mortification.
She’d
very carefully taught herself to be strong and confident and to never look
back.
Ever.
Sentimentality
didn’t have a place in her life. Or so she told herself. So why then had she
been carrying the small packet knife Archer had given her the night he’d saved
her all those years ago? Especially since the thought of how she’d tried to
repay him—and God, the humility of how she’d actually offered him the only
thing she’d had, that being her body, which he’d turned down flat—still made
her face flame. The worst part had been when he’d vanished like it’d been
nothing to him, when to her it’d been everything.
She
might not know why he’d done what he had but she still wasn’t leaving here
without that knife. It was a badge. A reminder of who she’d been and who she
was now.
Neither
of them had moved. Around them the night life in the pub went on. Laughter,
conversations, more dancing…all oblivious to this tight, little cocoon of just
the two of them crouched in front of the bar. They might as well have been
completely alone for all the attention anyone paid them.
Balanced
with apparent ease on the balls of his feet, Archer leaned in even closer if
that was possible, close enough that his knees touched hers. Close enough that
she could see every single gold spec in his hazel eyes. Every single
black-as-ink eyelash framing those eyes. He was hours past a five o’clock
shadow and a muscle ticked in his square jaw.
A rare
tell from a man who could be a stone when he wanted.
The
rest of him was as big and bad and intimidating as ever. His large body blocked
out everything behind him and although he could be terrifyingly scary when he
wanted to be, he never was with her. With her he was careful. Cautious.
Distant.
And she
hated that most of all.
This
time when she tried to tug the knife from his long fingers, he let her. Rising,
she stared down at him. “We done here?”
He rose
to his feet too. And just looked at her.
“Well?”
she asked.
“We’re
never done,” he said.
