This element is what I need more from the story. It was so easy to build Jessica and John’s (oh, what a forgettable name) chemistry because they had a past and they hated each other. It felt like she was so focused on giving us an idea of what happens to the characters’ field of work–I appreciate that, I really do–that in the end, she lost track of the romantic aspect and wasn’t able to provide enough material to remember her characters by. However, I find that there was so much info dump in all the chapters regarding these matters which bored me. The story did seem more realistic because of it. I commend her thorough research on the technicalities around FBI and the whole government process in general. Julie James has always been a favorite author of mine and so I, myself, was surprised when I finished this book and felt it was lacking, hence, the 3 star rating. MY REVIEW: 3 of 5 stars to The Thing About Love by Julie James ★★★ Suddenly, the heat behind their nonstop sparring threatens to make the job a whole lot more complicated. In order to nail a corrupt Florida politician, they’ll have to find a way to work as a team–a task that becomes even trickier when they’re forced to hole up at a romantic, beachfront resort as part of the investigation. And John is just one case away from his dream assignment to the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team. Recently divorced from a Hollywood producer and looking for a fresh start, Jessica is eager to prove herself at her new field office. Six years later, the last thing either of them expects is to run into each other again–assigned to work as partners in a high-profile undercover sting.įor both of them, being paired with a former rival couldn’t come at a worse time. The former lawyer and cocky Army ranger clashed during their training at Quantico, gladly going their separate ways after graduating from the Academy.
