Blurb: Blake: They say that everything happens in threes. That’s fine. But why me? And all in one day. I was left jobless; my car almost broke down on the side of the road; and when I finally did make it to the garage in my hometown, Stone Ridge, I ended up face to face with the local mechanic, Mitch Travis. He was everything I shied away from. Tall, dark, sexy as hell. And worst of all? A man.
I gravitated toward him like no one else before. Until I met his adorable little girl and opened my mouth, allowing my past to control my emotions. He kicked me out of his workshop, leaving me carless and stranded. Lucky for me, I didn’t need to see him again. Or that’s what I thought before I ended up on his doorstep for an interview to be his nanny. Mitch: Life was good, great even. I had a successful business and the best daughter a guy could ask for. I didn’t need anything else. Until she walked into my shop with sinful curves and long auburn hair. She reignited that spark I thought was long lost. Blake Sawyer was everything I didn’t know I wanted. And someone my daughter needed. But that was soon doused when she pried into my life, throwing around accusations, opening up old wounds I kept buried. I never wanted to see her again, but fate disagreed. Imagine my shock when SHE showed up on my doorstep to be my daughter’s nanny.
Review: Just the Way You Are is sweet and spicy. I loved how relatable it was because so many, if not most, women experience issues with self-esteem and body image issues during at least some part of their lives. I fell in love with Blake and Mitch. Blake has a lot of emotional trauma from her childhood that Mitch has to break through to convince her that he loves her and wants to be with her just the way she is, perceived flaws and all. Elle and Jaxon were amazing side characters, and I loved Indie, Mitch’s adorable daughter. Jayme did a great job portraying the speech of a 4-year-old and how they can’t quite pronounce words properly yet for an extra bit of cuteness. I can’t wait to read the next books in the series!
