Hold Me Today by Maria Luis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Maria Luis is a skilled storyteller—she proves time and again just how true this statement is. Yet, when I started reading Hold Me Today, I was blown away by the story that unfolded. This book is everything a romance should be–its sexy as hell, exquisitely entertaining, and deeply moving. I couldn’t put it down. As much as I have loved previously works by Maria, there was something unmistakably ‘more’ to her latest release. Hold Me Today is without a doubt my favorite book by the author and I am literally beside myself waiting for the second book in the Put A Ring On It series. With as much as I read—nearly a book a day—Maria Luis is in a league of her own when it comes to romances that live on with me after I read them. There is just something so effortlessly entertaining about them. And they suck you in and make you fall in-love again and again.

I straight up cornered that man in an elevator and proceeded to bust his balls like I was back in kindergarten—when kicking a guy you like in the nuts was the surefire way to announce the two of you were destined for marriage.

Hold Me Today is a multicultural, contemporary romance. Additionally, this dual perspective romance falls under the best friend’s brother subgenre which happens to be a favorite of mine, much like Maria Luis herself. While reading my heart soared, I cried, and even snort-laughed repeatedly. Although not a traditional romcom, Maria Luis nonetheless made the relationship between Nick and Mina every bit as hilarious as she did sexy. And boy oh boy, was this one seXXXy! 😉 is there anything hotter than a dirty talker?! Right now, I am not so sure…🔥 Maria masterfully wove together a story that flowed perfectly and sucked me in completely. While Nick was quiet, broody, sexy and even stoic, Mina is a loud, outgoing, feisty overachiever… And she loves nothing more than she does busting Nick’s balls—which isn’t hard to do since she’s known him almost all her life. Their chemistry was undeniable. Mina’s character depth made her my favorite female protagonists that Maria has written to date. Hold Me Today has captured my heart on every level. If you are in the mood for a sexy, dirty talker and a complex heroine, a romance that will leave you swooning long after you read those final words, one that’s sweet, witty and will completely consume you? Well, look no farther, because Hold Me Today is all those things!

“I was always yours.”
