(Mature Teens +) Graham Douglas doesn’t do romantic relationships, but he was knocked for a loop when he met Emma Pierce on the set of his last film. As they grew closer, he did everything in his power to keep from falling for a girl being pursued by superstar Reid Alexander. Now home in New York, his life is once again under control, until Emma appears and shows him how not over her he is. 

Emma Pierce is forsaking an up-and-coming Hollywood career to embark on a life she’s only dreamed of—the life of a regular girl. After spending months burying her feelings for the two night-and-day guys who vied for her heart while filming her last movie, a twist of fate puts her in a coffee shop in the middle of Manhattan with the one she still misses.

Brooke Cameron was a fresh-faced Texas girl when she arrived in LA. Now she’s a beach sitcom star turned conceited heiress on the big screen. Having just survived three months on location with her ex—Hollywood’s reigning golden boy—she’s older and wiser and has set her sights on her close friend Graham. The only thing standing in her way is the girl he can’t forget.

Reid Alexander can sum up his life in one word: boring. Between film projects, there’s little going on outside of interviews, photo shoots, and the premiere of the film he finished last fall. The next-to-last thing he expects is to get a second chance with Emma, the girl who rejected him. The last thing he expects is for his still-bitter-ex to be the one to offer it to him on a platter.


I think this book is probably my favorite in the series. And it's also the most frustrating!! 

I wasn't exactly a big Reid fan at the end of Between the Lines. And then reading this book, I found him to be even more of a horrible, arrogant, self absorbed evil, vile person. And Brooke! She had me completely fooled. I felt so bad for her in the last book. After everything she went through with Reid. Turns out she's nothing but a cold, selfish, manipulative...so many bad things I won't go there, but you get my drift.

I absolutely adore Emma and Graham. If you loved them like I do, reading this book will only endear them that much more to you. The way they handled and dealt with everything that got thrown at them was a great example of how things should really be done. I mean all the things Reid and Brooke did to try to break them apart and yeah they did get upset with each other and fight, but in the end, communication. They talked and worked things through. Eventually figuring out what was going on. Such a great OTP couple!

This book switched between 4 view points. Emma, Graham, Reid and Brooke. It was very interesting and I don't think the book would have been quite the same if it hadn't been. You really needed to be inside each person's head to really grasp their motivation and emotions that they all went through.

I'm really enjoying this series so far mostly due to the fact that Tammara Webber has a way of creating characters that evoke so much emotion from you both good and bad. I can't tell you how many times I wanted to reach into the book and strangle either Reid or Brooke!
