Rachel Higginson

Molly Maverick is giving up dating, relationships and men in general. She might rethink that when she meets Ezra Baptiste. He’s all man when she's used to nothing but boys pretending to be grownups. So he’ll need to find a different artist to paint his mural -- and a different graphic designer to help him with his website. He’ll need to find someone else to glare at and flirt with and kiss. It can’t be Molly - they are too different.

Drop it like it's hot

I thought this would be another hit, but dropped it by chapter 18. Just wasn't feeling it like the 1st and 3rd part of the series. Oh well, you can't win them all.

Zwei Menschen, die unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten - und doch perfekt füreinander sind ... Molly Maverick ist verflucht. Zumindest wenn es darum geht, Mr Right zu finden. Die junge Grafikerin hat es daher aufgegeben, nach der einen großen Liebe zu suchen. Bis sie Ezra Baptiste trifft. Der Restaurantbesitzer ist attraktiv, erfolgreich und strotzt nur so vor Selbstbewusstsein. Das Letzte, woran Molly denkt, ist, dass er ein Auge auf sie geworfen haben könnte. Sie sind einfach zu verschieden. Und doch kribbelt es, wenn Ezra sie nur ansieht ... "Dies ist einer jener Romane, an den man noch lange denkt, auch wenn man schon längst die letzte Seite gelesen hat!" NATASHA IS A BOOK JUNKIE Band 2 der Serie rund um Gegensätze, Liebe und Food - warmherzig, romantisch und sexy

If you've been following my blog recently, you no doubt know that I fell 1000% in love with The Opposite of You when I read it. I had no sooner finished that book that I pre-ordered The Difference Between Us and started basically stalking Rachel's social media for updates. It paid off, too, because I ended up getting an ARC and I was able to enjoy Ezra and Molly's story before release. :) And boy, did I ever enjoy it. 

It only took Molly and Ezra's initial fiery exchange in The Opposite of You to make me realize how much I NEEDED their story. I was shipping them before I even started this book. The tension was high with these two and I just KNEW it would make for a passionate connection if they ever became friends... or more. I wasn't wrong. This book gave me the delicious slow burn I've come to really appreciate in the last few months. Rachel gives good slow burn, there's no doubt about that. 

I loved this book so much. It was utterly unputdownable. I was engrossed in Molly and Ezra's story and, frankly, I just couldn't get enough of them. (Bonus: there are some great Vera and Killian scenes!) Molly and Ezra were both such wonderful, complex characters. I just loved the progression of their relationship from the initial animosity to the realization they weren't as different as they thought to the friendship and more. It felt realistic and it gave me life. Their chemistry was off the charts, their banter was highly amusing and the sexual tension was high... and things got hot when that finally broke. I laughed, swooned and felt all the feels. LOVED!

The Difference Between Us was a wonderful follow up to The Opposite of Us. I've already got a total case of grabby hands for The Problem with Him, which is coming in November. It's definitely one of my most highly-anticipated books of the latter part of 2017. I can't wait for Kaya and Wyatt's story. I just know it's going to be amazing. Rachel has quickly become one of my go-to authors. I'll be devouring her backlist as I can make time. 

I received a copy of this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

FAVORITE QUOTES

Ezra Baptiste was one of the most intolerable men I had ever met. Arrogant, condescending, offensively good looking, he had all the qualities of a human I tried to avoid. 

I wanted to hate Ezra. Or maybe not hate him, but at the very least be unaffected by him.

Most days I felt like a tiara-wearing toddler playing dress up with my mom's heels and checkbook. I was in a grown-up life I didn't know what to do with. 

I watched Aladdin. You should have always been Jasmine. Every single time.

He kissed me in a way I had never been kissed before, in a way I knew, I just knew, I would never be kissed again, not by any other man. Nobody could replicate this moment. Nobody could compare.

We were fireworks exploding, and cars crashing, and worlds colliding.

I had spent twenty-seven years of my life blending in. But I wasn't invisible with Ezra. He saw me. And I was enough for him.

I liked this one but didn't enjoy it nearly as much as the first book in this series, which actually had me chuckling at some of their creative insults. And also the food. This book was a bit more meh and the villain in the piece was a little too over the top.
