Take on Me: Secret Lives of Daytime Divas

I loved Dylan and Sadie! They were both stubborn and smart and sexy, with a vulnerability left over from their high school relationship. I couldn't wait for them to resolve their issues and live happily ever after. The love scenes at the office were only overshadowed by the ones in the woods - yum. I was wishing for a Dylan of my own by the end. Sarah Mayberry has never disappointed me, and this book was no exception to that.

Sarah Mayberry is the master of romance! Nobody does it better as far as I'm concernced. All of her books deal with the taboo romance and this book is no exception. Anyone who has ever had an unrequited high school crush will relate to Take On Me. I have already read this book twice and I'm sure a third will be required!!! I can't wait for your next book, Sarah!

Sarah Mayberry has become one of the few reasons to read Harlequin Blaze anymore. Her stories are always fresh and interesting with likable and realistic characters. Take One Me is no different. Sadie Post had a wild crush on high school bad boy Dylan. But when he humiliated her at prom, she vowed to forget him and try to move on. Too bad a small part of her heart has always longed for the teen. But life takes a turn for the dramatic when Dylan becomes part of the Oceans Boulevard soap opera writing team. Sadie is his boss now but she still feels like the fluttery and shy teenager she used to be. Dylan has likewise never forgotten the humiliation he felt at the hands of Sadie in their American Lit class. Her humiliation of him has spurred him to make great strides in his professional career and he is determined to show her the man he has become and, yeah, rub it in her face a bit. But with attraction boiling between them, and with misconceptions blazing, something has to give and before they know it, it will be their hearts that finally come together. Funny and fresh! Sadie is a hoot, though a still very insecure woman. She has recently experienced a painful rejection from her former fiance when he left her at the altar, so seeing Dylan again, the major rejection from her teenage years, makes the pain even more strong. Luckily, she is a character who isn't going to be beaten down and she does all she can to show Dylan that he doesn't matter to her. She has many vulnerabilities but is still a strong and dynamic character. Her interactions with Dylan light sparks off the page. Dylan is no slouch either. He's still a bit of a rebel, but he has come a long way and is proud of what he has accomplished. He also has a huge chip on his shoulder and it is amusing to watch Sadie slowly chip away at it. Sadie and Dylan were both charismatic characters who kept the story moving. The dialogue, plot, and secondary characters were all spot on and I can't wait to see where Ms. Mayberry takes the rest of the series. This is one category romance worth investing in.
