Book Review: Love Irresistibly by Julie James

Julie James is one of my favorite author. And this FBI/Attorney series, its wonderful...and Love Irresistibly is the latest from the series and a beautiful read.

 A short summary from book cover:

HE’S USED TO GETTING WHAT HE WANTS…
A former football star and one of Chicago’s top prosecutors, Assistant U.S. Attorney Cade Morgan will do anything to nail a corrupt state senator, which means he needs Brooke Parker’s help. As general counsel for a restaurant company, she can get a bug to the senator’s table at one of her five-star restaurants so the FBI can eavesdrop on him. All Cade has to do is convince Brooke to cooperate—and he’s not afraid to use a little charm, or the power of his office, to do just that.
AND WHAT HE WANTS IS HER.
A savvy businesswoman, Brooke knows she needs to play ball with the U.S. Attorney’s office—even if it means working with Cade. No doubt there’s a sizzling attraction beneath all their sarcastic quips, but Brooke is determined to keep things casual. Cade agrees—until a surprising turn of events throws his life into turmoil, and he realizes that he wants more than just a good time from the one woman with whom he could fall terrifyingly, irresistibly in love . .

My review:

Love Irresistibly…the latest book from FBI/US Attorney series is a wonderful romantic book. I felt the story was somewhat realistic. A modern-day heroine, Brooke Parker, is smart, witty, ambitious and with a bold attitude towards everything girl, is a successful businesswoman and lawyer for the famous Sterlings Restaurant. I enjoyed her character a lot….the way she proves herself in life by becoming a successful lawyer is really admirable. Cade Morgan…wow….smart, very charming and successful Assistant US Attorney….i loved their chemistry! Both Cade and Brooke are perfect for each other. They start their relationship as casual, but slowly become more close to each other than they expected. The romance was sweet…the funny inside jokes, sarcastic quips and conversations were fun to read. The conflicts they faced…with Brooke’s job with which she was always busy, with not much time for a personal  life and Cade’s father issues which always made him ‘emotionally unavailable’ were realistically portrayed in the book. I enjoyed how Ms.James gave equal importance in the book to their professional lives with their day to day problems as well to their love story. The  secondary characters Ian, Vaughn, Huxley and obviously, Cade’s brother Zach were great. How could i miss Ford, he was lovely and a wonderful best friend to Brooke…a great romantic read!!

My Rating:  4/5
