Carlisle Queen & Mateo Butler met in Spanish class.  He is the TA and is always finding it funny that she cannot do the accent.  He has been trying to get her to go on a date for about a year. 

Carlisle has many issues from her past making it difficult to move forward.  She has honestly never planned to do so.  She used to be an Olympic Swimmer and has the 12 medals to prove how food she was.  After a bomb stole her friends, her job and the love of her life - she decided it was no longer worth living.

Mateo is just getting to know the real Carlisle and he likes her a lot.  He has a bog family and good support system so he wants to be there for anyone who needs him.  If that is Carlisle, then so be it.  So what if they are so hot for each other that the clothes often come off.

Carlisle is already possibly dying or could eventually be paralyzed by the shrapnel in her back.  She takes life as a video game, since she does not plan to live too much into the future.  She keeps everyone at a distance, since she finds it rude to hurt those she cares about to take her own life.  She is also determined to do so.

Mateo changes her mind on a lot of things.  Can this choice to leave the human world be one of them?  He convinces her he loves her.  They are both so stubborn it is a toss up who will win.  

Such an extraordinary story about two lives who make the others better.  I found myself cheering, crying and completely unable to put this book down! This is the 2nd book in the Nashville Nights series, and soon we will have book 3!  I give this story a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Cute little story though for whatever reason, h does not recognize H from high school.  Slightly understandable as he has transformed from the frog he was back in the day into Prince Charming complete with muscles and great hair.  Whatever.  The sex was hot and the couple was pretty cute.

Also refreshing as H is a studio musician by trade instead of a rock star so that was cool.

This author has been very hit or miss for me but I'm happy to say that this one was a hit for the most part.  Lots of assumptions on the part of H and h but true love wins out in the end. I guess.
