Give me Love (Give me #1) By Kate McCarthy



Evie Jamieson, a former wild child, is not only a headstrong, smart-mouthed trouble magnet, she is also a lead singer with a plan. That plan involves uprooting her band, including her two best friends guitarist Henry and band manager Mac, to Sydney to kick off their dreams of hitting the big time. 

Jared Valentine is the older brother of Evie's best friend Mac and also the man determined to make Evie his. They strike up a long distance friendship which suits Evie because she's determined to avoid the distraction of love, not only because it doesn't fit in with her plan, but because twice in the past it has left her for dead. Moving to Sydney, however, has put her directly in Jared's path and he has decided it's the perfect opportunity to make his play. 

Unfortunately Jared, co-owner in a business that 'consults' in dangerous hostage and kidnapping situations, makes an enemy who's determined to enact revenge. When his enemy puts Evie in his sights, Jared not only has a fight on his hands to make her his own, but also to keep her alive. 

Is accepting the love he's so desperate to give worth the risk to both her heart, and her life?



Evie Jamieson is a rock chick, a wild child and is finally getting her band somewhere. In order to this she has to move to Sydney, the place where Jared, Mac's older brother lives. 
The two texted each other over the years, Evie not able to be around him without becoming a blistering mess. She's basically had a crush on him since the very first moment she saw him. 
But Evie has a plan, only date geeks. She wants to avoid the distraction of love, but she also doesn't want her past to catch up with her. Evie's last to boyfriends had both left her for dead. 
Jared is also partner with her brother in a firm that consults in dangerous hostage situations and kidnapping. 
When a hostage take down goes wrong, an enemy uses Evie to get his revenge. 

I got into the story pretty much right away. I loved it and the characters. All of them. They were funny to read about. 

Even Evie trying to push Jared away was funny, and it doesn't work, he's determined to make her his and my God, does he. 
It also gives us a little insight to the other characters in the book which I loved. The group are a tight nit family and although living in each other's shoes, working together, they all have this incredible bond. It was brilliant story to read.
