REVIEW: Meant for You by Layla Hagen

Meant for You by Layla Hagen: Paige loves her job developing new projects for a non-profit. She’s passionate about giving back and helping others. While she loved living in Paris, she’s excited to be back home and closer to her family. She’s smart, sassy, giving, and close to her family.

Will didn’t mind helping out his family by taking care of his siblings and he’s turned that desire to help and protect others into a career on the LAPD. He loves his job and helping families get justice. He’s sexy, charming, loyal, and dedicated to his family.

The last thing Will wants is to be the focus of matchmaking efforts by his family. He’s content to be single since he is so busy with work and family, until he meets Paige. She’s a fiery package who gives as good as she gets and he’s determined to win her over. They have immediate sparks and Will’s persistence pays off.

She chuckled. “I don’t know, Will. He hasn’t asked me to go to a wedding with him yet.”
“Have you given that more thought?” I moved closer to her.
“It’s a standing invitation?”
“Yes. Why? What did you think?”

They immediately hit it off and it helps that Will’s siblings love her. They banter and support each other. Both are close to their families and they bond over their experiences growing up. He’s confident and cocky, but he’s also a really good man who supports Paige and her goals. Paige deliberately pushes his buttons, but in a way that’s fun and sexy.

“Remember my view on rules?”
I cleared my throat. “Those are not rules. They’re instructions. So sit outside on the lounger and do nothing. Except playing eye candy. If you’re so inclined, you can kick off your jeans until the workers arrive.”

Meant for You is entertaining, sexy, and fun. Layla Hagen developed a smoking hot couple who bond on multiple levels while also charting new paths for themselves. Ms. Hagen provided a great cast of secondary characters in their families and I would love to read Jace’s story. Fans of Melissa Foster and Marina Adair will enjoy Meant for You.

Will Connor lives his life by simple rules: take care of those he loves, give one hundred percent to his job, and never ignore his instincts. So when he meets Paige, he doesn’t plan to ignore their crazy chemistry, or the way her pretty smile strips him of all defenses…
As the development director of a non-profit, Paige Lamonica has met her fair share of people. But Will is something else entirely. The hot detective is a little too confident, and far too easy on the eye. She loves that he goes toe-to-toe with her at every turn. When Will asks her to attend his sister’s wedding with him, she thinks he just wants to throw off his scent some relatives with a penchant for matchmaking.

She couldn’t be more wrong. Will wants her.

When she teases him, he teases her right back. When she pushes his buttons, he repays her with scorching hot kisses. Paige discovers that there’s more to Will than she thought. With every layer she peels off, she craves more…

But as the daughter of an army man, Paige has never wanted to get involved with someone on the force. Can Will persuade her to give in to their growing love?
