I questioned it the first time but after the second, I knew it was no accident.

§ In The Case of Ava’s Missing Contraception: I called Jesse being the guilty party after the SECOND time her pills “disappeared”.

§ The Proposal: I shouldn’t be surprised that Jesse made proposal sex a thing, but hey, being handcuffed to a bed by a hot controlling man is one heck of a way to get proposed to. (And yes I made up that number but I'm sure it's close to accurate) Actually I shake my head during 89.95% of the time they go at it. § “The ‘I love you’ Confession Sex: all I could do was shake my head. I wish whenever she would try to have a serious discussion with Jesse, she would be strong enough to fight off his sex-stractions. § WE KNOW HOW OLD HE IS FINALLY!! Sinful 37 ) But I’m not sure why it didn’t occur to Ava to check his drivers license. If anything he may have acted more erratically, but he did open up some. § Jesse hadn’t changed much since book 1. And after that ending, I’ll be damned if I stop now. Something apart from the fact that This Man Confessed has been patiently collecting dust on my shelf. As frustrating as the series is and as much as I frequently ask myself why am I still bothering with these two, I can’t seem to stop reading. It’s like I really don’t know if they’re good for each other. When they’re good, it’s spectacular, but when they’re bad, it’s toxic. Especially after how much tension there was at the beginning, I really thought more progress would’ve happened.Īnd yet for some stupid reason I really want them to work out. Then three steps forward and two steps back. I’m really starting to believe that Jodi picked Ward as Jesse’s last name as a play on words because he belongs in a ward.Įvery time I think Ava and Jesse are making a step forward, they take five steps back.
