Review: Make Me Melt – Nicki Day

Newly divorced, Vicky Browning is coming home for the holidays for the first time in years. After losing her supposed friends in her recent divorce, she has nowhere else to go and tries to make the best out of the situation.

U.S. Marine, Michael Barnett just set his boots down on American soil for the first time in eighteen months. He wants nothing more than to go home to his humble mountain home, drink a few beers, and fish the rest of the year away. Michael’s mother has other plans though, and insists he come home to spend Christmas with those who love him.

Michael and Vicky haven’t seen one another in seventeen years. Their last meeting was less than enjoyable as they said goodbye to one another in a bitter break up at the tender age of eighteen years old. As the awkwardness settles between the two they soon begin to realize that the flames of desire haven’t died between them. The wounds they thought had never healed, might just be the very thing that brings them together again.

“Make Me Melt” did just that.  I completely fell in love with this book, and melted right into my couch 🙂

Nicki Day has given us a story that is sweet, sexy, fun, and oh so romantic.  The two main characters, Michael and Vicky, share a past that is bittersweet, and after seventeen years, they meet again in their hometown…at Christmastime, no less.  They have such a delightful chemstry.  It’s palpable from the beginning.  I could feel the tension between them, and I wanted them to rediscover each other so badly.  However, I loved that it was a slow buildup.  It made the pay off so much more satisfying.

I want to share so much more, but I don’t want to give everything away.  “Make Me Melt” is so good.  I want you to read it for yourselves.  I will tell you that the  sex scenes are VERY hot, and you’ll get caughr right up in them.  Also, the setting is perfect…a small Colorado town, with a big Christmas tree in the park, and snow on the ground.  It just screams romance, and it feels real.  The background characters fit in so nicely.  They’re charming and funny, if a bit nosy.

I can’t go on enough about this one.  I read a LOT of books, but every now and then, I come across a real gem (That’s not too cliche is it?) that stays with me.   Everything about this story is awesome…even the cover.  I am telling you that you MUST read it.  You’ll fall in love with it as much as I did.
