And the situation only escalates when Parker hires her to fly him around the area while he collects evidence on a suspected smuggler. Now she has to live and work with the guy. But when they're in the air, she sees another side of him. He's driven, focused, and sharp. And while he enjoys giving commentary on her blind dates, she quickly realizes with a shock that it's Parker who gets her engines going...

Review: All I Want is book six in the Animal Magnetism series by Jill Shalvis, and one great ending to the series it is. Oddly, it's much less related to the previous six books than I expected and even though some of the characters we've gotten to know do show up, All I Want can perfectly be read as a stand alone novel. Which is fine by me. 

Yes, the plot is fairly predictable. And yet, it is not. Even though you can easily guess how it is going to end, Jill Shalvis still managed to surprise me a bit there. And in a couple of other places in between. This is a sweet, funny, hot romance story, one of those feel-good books we all need once in a while. 

Zoe and Parker are wonderful characters and I loved then both. But my favorite? Oreo the dog, and then the two crazy kittens he sort of adopts along the way and which are aptly named Bonnie and Clyde. 

 

The only thing I didn't get in this book was the cover, because for the entire length of it, the characters are nowhere near a beach. But the cover does not make the book, and I still very much recommend it!

Happy readings!
