Lauren Layne

Meet New York's Finest-three hot brothers sworn to protect and serve the city they love . . . and the women who've stolen their hearts. ARRESTED BY LOVE Vincent Moretti is one of the NYPD's top homicide detectives-and one of the most eligible bachelors in town. His family, however, thinks he should date his longtime partner, Jill-a sassy, sexy, smart-mouthed blonde who drives him absolutely crazy. Behind the quiet authority, tough-guy demeanor, and dark aviator glasses lies a man with a big soul-and a hard body that can soften any girl's heart. After years as his coworker, Jill Henley has given up hope that anything could happen between her and Vin. Besides, loving him would break all the rules. But seeing Jill with someone else triggers feelings in Vincent he never knew he had. Now he'll have to stop playing good cop/bad cop-and find a way to convince her to be his partner for life. . .

I just couldn't stop reading! A crime solving mystery and a love story at the same time. Some aspects of the story were a cliché, but I loved it anyway.

Who doesn´t love Lauren Layne romance titles? ´Cause I do! Lauren Layne has excellent talent in creating addicting romance stories that I love to read all day. She has written another book in New York´s Finest Series, Cuff Me. Cuff Me is Jill and Vin story that I practical squeal when I receive ARC of Cuff Me. I definitely want to know more about Vin since he is always the cynic brother. 
Jill and Vin have been partner for several years now that they both finally though about each other. However, they are in separate page though. Jill has always had feeling for Vin but he never show anything that she finally started dating and she become engage. Vin has always had feelings for Jill but never acted on it since he has guard around his life but he realizes that he wants to go for it. However, they never have communicate their feeling for each other. There will be a lot of sexual tension between them while they figure out how to communicate their true feeling to each other.
As they try to figure their feeling for each other, they also have a confusing case to solve. Their case will capture the reader interest because the reader will want to know who did it. The case will keep the reader on their toe because it will be the unexpected person that is the killer. 
Cuff Me is a good romance story that you want to root for them to be together. Four Stars.

I love Lauren Layne's books. I've spent some time catching up on her backlist over the last few months and I've enjoyed each and every one of them. I've been following her New York's Finest series since I picked up the first book on NetGalley. I liked Luc's story in Frisk Me. I loved Anthony's story in Steal Me. I couldn't WAIT to get Vincent's story with this book. I think I was half in love with him before even cracking this book. During and after? Well, t was everything I wanted and more, even if I was a little unsure in the beginning. 

Vincent and Jill were fantastic characters. I loved their chemistry and their partnership and, it could probably go without saying, I was shipping them HARD throughout this series. I NEEDED their book. I was admittedly a little put off in the beginning when I learned she was in a serious relationship with another guy. It made me sad because they were so right for each other. My heart hurt for Vincent early on in this book as he realized he might not have a chance will Jill after all. I won't get all spoilery, but what I will say is that I ended the book with a smile and was completely satisfied by it. So you can draw your own conclusions. :) 

Lauren is the master of unexpected feels and she delivered in a big way with Cuff Me. I swear, I felt them all. This book was sweet and swoony, funny, charming and heartwarming. And, of course, sexy in all the right ways. I absolutely adore the Moretti family and I loved getting to see more of them here. Fans of the New York's Finest series will not want to miss this one. I think I've said it before and I'll say it here just to be sure – if you love romance and you're NOT reading Lauren's books, you're missing out. Big time. And you should probably do something about it. 

I received a copy of this book from the publisher, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.

FAVORITE QUOTES:

  He'd always thought they'd shared a secret understanding that the fact that what was between them couldn't be named was precisely what made it theirs. Now, he was realizing that this had been one-sided. That all this time, he'd merely been her colleague while she'd been his... everything.

Vincent forced himself to look at her fiancé again. He looked like Tom Fucking Brady. Even the first name was the same.

"Sweetie, if you'd spent your entire life silently waiting – desperately wanting – someone to love you, and never having that gift even offered – would you know how to give it?"

AHHH!!! I. loved. this. book!!!

If you know me, then you know I’m a massive Lauren Layne fan. Her books are just contemporary romance heaven and I always look forward to all her releases. Cuff Me was my most anticipated read of hers, and it didn’t disappoint at all. In fact, Cuff Me is my favorite of the New York’s Finest series and so far my FAVORITE LL book ever!

You know those series where you’re just WAITING for a certain couple to get their book? There’s all this buildup for them and you have all these expectations that you hope will be met? Well, Cuff Me was that book for me. I’d been dying to read Vincent and Jill’s story ever since meeting them in Frisk Me, and Lauren Layne gave me everything I wanted and more with this book. The romance is slow, but it’s absolutely filled with sexual tension. This is a bit of the hate-to-love-you trope, a bit of opposites-attract and friends-to-lovers. LL did a brilliant job blending all these tropes together. I wholeheartedly adored Cuff Me – it’s sweet, sexy, funny, and all-around an irresistible read.

Their relationship had always been both horribly complicated and wonderfully simple.
Those two elements canceled each other out so that when it came right down to it, Jill and Vincent were beyond definition.
They simply were.

Vincent Moretti and Jill Henley are partners and homicide detectives for the NYPD. There’s a bit of love/hate going on, and a healthy dose of lust too – and while it’s obvious to everyone how in love with each other Jill and Vin are, these two are absolutely clueless about how the other feels. But no matter what they feel, they’ve always had each others’ backs. That is, until Jill blindsides Vin by coming back home after a trip… engaged.

Jill has loved Vin since forever – and even more than just her partner, he’s family to her. But it’s been six years since they were first partnered together, and Jill just isn’t sure anymore that Vin could reciprocate her feelings – so she jumps into an engagement with another man, all the while still loving Vin.

Vin has always been the quiet, shy one ever since he was a boy, so he’s not adept at expressing his feelings, but he knows he has to try in order to win Jill back. And when he finds out that Jill is engaged to another man, it awakens this jealous, possessive, alpha side of him that is seriously the hottest thing ever. And when Vin is determined to do something, whether it’s trying to solve a murder, or in this case, win over the woman in his heart, there’s nothing that can stop him. Except maybe his own fears of loving and being loved, but that’s what Jill and his family are there for, to knock some sense into him. ;)

“My brothers said that saying it would be the hardest thing I’ve ever done. They were wrong. It was the easiest. Because loving you is easy.”

I adored Jill so much. She’s just so happy and light compared to Vin’s broody and dark, and while she doesn’t make the best decision getting engaged to a man she doesn’t love, it does do what she’s always wanted: make Vin realize his feelings for her. And Vin, while frustrating, is so sweet and adoring of Jill – even though he struggles with showing her that, you can’t help but love him for it. These two make such a heart-warming couple that my heart melted every time they were together in the book.

Lauren Layne has once again written a brilliantly sexy and romantic read. I loved Cuff Me! If you love some men-in-uniform, you definitely need to get your hands on the Moretti brothers, especially Vin. Now I can’t help but hope that LL will write another book for the fourth Moretti brother, who we get to know a lot better in Cuff Me!

Thanks to the publisher for generously providing me an ARC to review.
