About book Rien Qu'une Semaine (2000)

Rating 2.5 to 3.0 Stars.I read Just One Song and Just One Week in one day but I have to say there was an issue with this book that definitely brought the rating down.This book is about Mia who you met in Just One Song as Nicole's best friend and sister of the heart and Chase, the drummer in Zach Walters band. These two have been hooking up with a no strings attached friends with benefits relationship but it is no longer enough for Chase.Mia is a very confused young woman and has been through some trauma in her life that shaped her idea of relationships,,,and not for the good. She keeps secrets and hurts others in the process. Then she has a major health scare that rocks her world as she faces surgery and the unknown. She has kept this from Chase and her friends and is determined to go it alone. She does not want to be a burden and affect the lives of others with her illness as her mother's health battle did.ALERT...SPOILER AHEAD! Stop reading if you don't want a few facts about why this author and this book was disappointing to me.Chase is in love with Mia and wants to be with her always but she draws him in and then pushes him away, fighting to protect him from her health scare and what she feels is an avoidable future that she thinks wrecked her family. Here is where the book failed for me. Chase gave her his undying love and promised he would never ever stop chasing her, trying to win her over. But then he lets his head think all kinds of stupid, untrue stuff and decided to hook up with someone he just met, to move on and leave Mia behind!!! Is that true love? Is this what you do to the woman you love more than your life? What in the heck happened to the man who swore she was IT for him? Where is that gentle giant of a man who told her just weeks ago, while she was recovering from surgery, that he would never stop trying to win her over? What is it about men who can't seem to keep there package locked up for a short amount of time when they are in love with someone else...who, by the way...is at her brothers home recuperating from a major life altering surgery. This was the ruination of this story for me. The Chase we knew and learned to love would never do this to her. It just brought him down in my books. Please understand, she had asked him to leave her. She felt she and the illness would destroy him like she thought it did to her father. So he left and even though the band was on tour, he went a couple of months without going to see. He has chartered jets for things much less important but not to go to her. This man was crazy insane for her and he wants a hook up to make him forget Mia, even if it is only for a few hours. This hook-up ended up not happening but it was very close. It also hurt me to know he broke his big rule of not ever kissing a fan on the mouth. He broke his promise to himself for this hook up. Gosh I cannot tell you how upsetting it was and apparently I am not the only reviewer that feels this way. It diminished the story and his love for her. I was close to wishing someone else would come along in her life. Even though she fought him and the relationship, she deserved more. I would not have been able to trust him again no matter how much he said he loved me. While reading the first novel in this series Just One Song, I needed to take a break and resort to Kleenex, which of course was nowhere near to where I was sitting. This time me and the Kleenex were prepared, just in case. I was doubting the authors ability to bring me to the Kleenex needed point in two books in a row, but I was prepared. Good thing.We first met Mia in Just One Song as she is Nicole’s best friend, and Chase is the drummer in the band. This story starts as people are getting ready for the wedding of Nicole and Chase almost two years later.Mia is a tough cookie, she takes care of everyone, she worries about everthing and she is always there when her friends need her. She put her career on hold for Nicole after the accident that claimed her husband and child because her friend needed her. Mia feels abandoned by her father who turned to alcohol as her mother battled cancer when Mia was a teenager. Her mother recovered but her father never did. Her older brother Elijah basically became both mother and father to her for many years.Mia has learned to put her emotional walls strictly in place and does not let anyone get close to her. Except Nicole and her brother Elijah. Chase and Mia have been hanging out for the last two years, meeting up for many friends with benefits sexual encounters, she thought this was a mutually benificial arrangement but it seems that lately Chase has been wanting more and they have not really spoken to each other in the last six months. He wants a real relationship and Mia is too scared to do that.He picks her up at the airport when she arrives a few days before the wedding and whisks her away to a hotel. He says” I want you for one week.” She says “for sex”, he says ” All of you”, she says” I’ll try”. And so it begins. The journey to see if Chase can crumble down the walls that she has firmly in place. To see if he can prove to her that love can conquer all and to give him a chance. To give them a chance.Mia is nothing if not stubborn and she has held on to her fears and independance for many years. She is very set in her ways and is not intending to give in to Chase. Sure she finds him hot and sexy, but she is only interested in sex. She gives him a run for his money for sure.Stacey Lynn pulled out another awe inspiring novel with this one. The kleenex box made an appearance a few times as issue after issue popped up to keep these two apart. There were a few surprises that I totally did not see coming and I was certainly knocked for a loop.The love story between the two of them was very very sweet. He is such a hotty and she is just so fragile emotionally while trying so hard to be strong. It was an amazing jourey to follow their struggles and watch the bumps along the way. I would definately recommend this story to anyone and everyone and would rate it a solid 5/5.for more reviews visit welovekink(dot)comreviewed by Monica
