From #1 New York Times Bestseller Vi Keeland, comes a new, sexy standalone novel. My relationship with Hunter Delucia started backwards. We met at a wedding—him sitting on the groom’s side, me sitting on the bride’s. Stealing glances at each other throughout the night, there was no denying an intense, mutual attraction. I caught the bouquet; he caught the garter. Hunter held me tightly while we danced and suggested we explore the chemistry sparking between us. His blunt, dirty mouth should’ve turned me off. But for some crazy reason, it had the opposite effect on me.We ended up back in my hotel room. The next morning, I headed home to New York leaving him behind in California with the wrong number.I thought about him often, but after my last relationship, I’d sworn off of charming, cocky, gorgeous-as-sin men. A year later, Hunter and I met again at the birth of our friends’ baby. Our attraction hadn't dulled one bit. After a whirlwind trip, he demanded a real phone number this time. So I left him with my mother’s—she could scare away any man with her talks of babies and marriage—and flew back home.I’d thought it was funny, until the following week when he rang the bell at Mom’s house for Sunday night dinner. The crazy, gorgeous man had won over my mother and taken an eight-week assignment in my city. He proposed we spend that time screwing each other out of our systems. Eight weeks of mind-blowing sex with no strings attached? What did I have to lose?Nothing, I thought.It’s just sex, not love.But you know what they say about the best laid plans…

Sex, Not Love by Vi Keeland
4.5 stars!!!

“I thought I couldn’t get you out of my mind, but it was my heart that wouldn’t let go.”

Vi Keeland is one of those authors that always delivers and once again Sex, Not Love ticked all those boxes. Sex, Not Love is one helluva swoon worthy romance while embracing the fears that many people have before embarking on putting their heart out there. This book was full of heart, emotion and real life and I couldn’t help but champion these two characters along.

“If Hunter was my real thing, why did I have to go back to imposters?”

Natalia Rossi and Hunter Delucia first meet at their best friend’s wedding and the instant attraction was sizzling. Neither want a relationship, neither succumb but it wasn’t for want of trying and smooth words. Having married best friends means that their paths keep crossing and that sizzling hot chemistry never wanes, no matter the months and months that pass.

“It’s been nine months, and here you are still chasing me after one night in my bed. And I didn’t even put out. Imagine the condition you’d be in if I did.”

Natalia was a great heroine, divorced at twenty-eight and incredibly jaded with the male species. However, she had all that Italian feistiness which made her character pop off the pages, Vi Keeland did an amazing job bringing this character to life. Natalia had a heart the size of Texas, put everyone before herself but she was no doormat, she was just inherently kind and generous.

Hunter Delucia on the outside was the typical commitment-phobe but there was a lot more to this utterly adorable man. Drop dead sexy, with a filthy mouth and the equipment to back it up, this man had it all, so why was he still single?

“You wore me down, and now you’ve worn me out, Mr. Delucia.”

Starting as friends with benefits with strictly no emotional attachment was a tall order considering the chemistry that these two shared, but they have a lot of issues between them to work through. I loved how Hunter’s past was slowly eeked out with flashbacks to the past and gave a greater insight to the man he is today.

“So if you want to protect her—really allow her to move on without it dragging out for years like things with my dad did—don’t leave her questioning. Because while the truth hurts, it’s like a Band-Aid when you rip it off. The pain goes away. It’s the lies and questioning that keep you aching for a long time.”

This was all about exploring a connection, breaking through the barriers and grabbing a once in a lifetime opportunity with both hands. Confiding, trusting and finding that soul mate, that no matter the bad, makes everything seem so much better. Absolutely adored it, read it one sitting and could easily re-read it again.

“I used to think Hunter Delucia had stolen a piece of my heart. But I was wrong. Because eventually, even the heart stops beating. This man stole a piece of my soul—because the soul lives forever, and so will my love for this beautiful man.”

****CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS***

HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just finished Sex, Not Love and I absolutely LOVED IT. This is the second Vi Keeland book that I read and I just love her writing and her characters.

What I'm noticing about Vi's characters is that not only are the male leads, sexy, bold, vulgar (in a HOT way), straight to the point, strong men but so are the female leads. They are sassy, career oriented and not afraid to go after what they want either. Because of these character traits, the chemistry in her novels is sizzling.

Sex, Not Love follows Hunter, a sexy architect who is bold and vulgar but an all around great guy. After having lost his mother to what he thought was Parkinsons when he was a teen, Hunter and his brother Jayce were raised by their aunt and uncle. Hunter is a man who doesn't want relationships. he doesn't do "love" but from the throwbacks we get of Hunter's past, I immediately felt he was a very loyal guy. Hunter lost his brother Jayce and later in the book we find out how and why. Because of the lost of his mother and brother and the reason he lost them, Hunter harbors a secret that keeps him from loving and getting involved in any long term relationship.

Natalia is a divorce woman whose husband went to jail for fraud. She finds herself raising her 15 year old step-daughter as she is her legal guardian while her ex is serving his prison sentence. Natalia first meets Hunter at the wedding of their mutual (and best friends) Anna and Derek. From that moment , Hunter and Natalia had a chemistry they couldn't deny.

About a year after the wedding, they cross each other's paths again and decide to engage in a Sex, not love type of relationship. Both having been hurt by different types of losses they thought it was the perfect type of relationship for them but of course, destiny had other plans for them.

The chemistry between Hunter and Natalia was on fire. I loved the fact that he was so bold from the beginning and he knew he was going to get her sooner or later. Natalia knew she was going to give into him also. I truly enjoying witnessing how their friendship grew into love. They were perfect for one another. The way he handled her and the way he cared so much about Izzy made my heart melt.

These characters were so easy to relate to. Their imperfections and their past made them so real. I admire Natalia's strength and her dedication and love for Izzy. She really stepped in and was a mother to Izzy. Izzy's character was great also. I love witnessing her growth and seeing her mature into an amazing young lady. She was a very fair young girl despite all she had gone through.

This book really had me feeling all types of feels. I laughed (out loud), I got angry in some parts, I got teary eyed in others and at the end I just had to take a deep breath and step back into reality. I need more of Vi Keeland's characters and more of their world so I can escape mine. :)

I freaking loved this one. Hunter was everything, and I so hadn't been expecting his story. But it was amazing, full of love and funny moments. I love the dynamic between Natalia and Hunter. I loved watching them become a little trio and I loved watching Izzy and Natalia's relationship grow and seeing her open up to Natalia and appreciate everything she did for her.

This was definitely another win for me. Oh, no doubt about it. And I'm still not over the cover. Hot damn! *fans self*

I absolutely loved this book from beginning to end! All the feels, the laughs, the love, the sexiness, the twists.

Hunter makes you laugh and swoon and squirm and wishing there would be more real life Hunter’s. He’s such a diverse character. When you first meet him, you’ll find yourself putting him in a specific corner. But not shortly after, you learn that he is so much more than the stereotypical playboy.

Natalia is a strong woman that does her best with what life threw at her. I absolutely adore her strength and her quirks. She could have run away and leave things behind her and it would be totally understandable. But she took the challenge and made her way.

Vi Keeland has this beautiful writing that captivates you right from the beginning. You fall in love with the characters and the story. And then at some point she throws a twist in that leaves you breathless and crying and thinking.
It is one of those books that you read at a time and it makes you feel so much. It pooped into your life right at the time you needed it the most.
