*A new sizzling romance from a USA TODAY BESTSELLING Author* *This book is a standalone. Each book in The Bennett Family series will follow a different couple.*
Logan Bennett knows his priorities. He is loyal to his family and his company. He has no time for love, and no desire for it. Not after a disastrous engagement that left him broken-hearted. When Nadine enters his life, she turns everything upside down.
She’s sexy, funny, and utterly captivating. She’s also more stubborn than anyone he’s met. . .including himself.
Nadine Hawthorne is finally pursuing her dream: opening her own clothing shop. After working so hard to get here, she needs to concentrate on her new business, and can’t afford distractions. Not even if they come in the form of Logan Bennett. He’s handsome, charming, and doesn’t take no for an answer. After bitter disappointments, Nadine doesn’t believe in love. But being around Logan is addicting. It doesn’t help that Logan’s family is scheming to bring them together at every turn.
Their attraction is sizzling, and their connection—undeniable. Slowly, Logan wins her over. What starts out as a fling soon spirals into much more than they are prepared for.
When a mistake threatens to tear them apart, will they have the strength to hold on to each other?
Your Captivating Love is the second book in the contemporary romance series, The Bennett Family by Layla Hagen. Each book in The Bennett Family series will follow a different couple, and will be a standalone story. I said it before with Aint’ She Sweet by Marie Force, and I will say it again and again. I love books that follow a large family. I just love the fun and joking dynamic that a bunch of siblings bring. I have not yet read book one in this series, but now I know that I need to. I loved Your Captivating Love, and I can’t wait to continue on with the other siblings. Layla Hagen is quickly becoming one of my go to romance authors. I always love her characters and the chemistry she created. It sizzles off of the page.
Your Captivating Love is told in Dual narrative between Logan and Nadine. Logan is known as the protector of the family. He is fiercely protective of the people he cares about, and I wouldn’t have him any other way. I thought it was adorable that he was constantly second guessing himself with Nadine to make sure he wasn’t being too overbearing. He was just too cute. I thought it was really sweet how he is always watching out for everyone.
Nadine is a great chick. She is creative and independent, and I loved how she maintained such a positive attitude no matter what was thrown her way. I thought she used the I need to be independent line a bit too much, but I understood where she was coming from. Your Captivating Love was a rather quick read for me, but the book is over 300 pages long. I just got so wrapped up in the story that I didn’t even realize how long I had been reading. Layla Hagen builds up some well developed characters and relationships in the length of this story, and I am hooked on the Bennett Family. I can’t wait for more.
Bottom line: If you like contemporary romances featuring meddling siblings galore, great characters and sizzling chemistry this is the series for you.

Thanks for the review! I do love when siblings are included as main characters in books and I love romance, especially when the author can show the chemistry between characters.
