Cover Description:
As a professional hit man, Will Collier has more secrets than most. But on a sweltering Texas night, the lives he’s taken rank second place to the love he’d like to be making with a sensual Bohemian beauty.
Sabrina Walker is intimately familiar with the havoc Cupid can wreak. She’s determined that love will never seduce her again, until she meets Will Collier and discovers that some secrets are better when shared.
Warning: This book contains a spunky, plus-sized heroine, a sassy Beagle named Scamp, and a sexually frustrated hitman who can’t figure out what women want…Then again, what man can?
Read on for my thoughts on Hittin’ It. No true spoilers, promise.
Hittin’ It was such a fun story. Will and Sabrina are perhaps an unlikely couple, but the sizzle between them was definitely off the charts.
As this is a relatively short read, I’m going to let the Cover Description stand without much more details. No need to spoil the story for you.
But I found the concept of a hitman finally finding love a truly unique and entertaining idea. After all, hitmen need love too, right? Add into the mix the fact that he is, at times, so clueless about women – yeah, definitely had me chuckling and rolling my eyes at Will, often. Sabrina is definitely feisty and convinced that love is not for her ever again… but she can’t resist Will for very long.
This novella is a reissue and not one at the same time. The author has taken this from a two story book to simply Will and Sabrina’s story with some additions. So “if” you’ve read this one back when it was originally published you might see some changes. I didn’t have the experience of reading the earlier version – so my enjoyment of this story was solely based on Will and Sabrina’s adventure in love.
If you’re looking for a lighthearted, charming and flirty summer read (or anytime really) then Hittin’ It should definitely be on your reading list. I would definitely recommend this story for readers that just want some fun served up with their love story.
*I received an e-ARC of Hittin’ It from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. That does not change what I think of this novel.*
