***An Amazon overall top 90 bestseller***

The road to happily ever after has never been more hilarious...or complicated...

Grace Montgomery’s plan is simple. Go to her younger brother's wedding, stop it, go home, make partner at her law firm. Almost getting arrested by a cocky air marshal? Not on the agenda. Neither was puking on him. (Don't ask) Finding out he's her soon-to-be brother-in-law? Also a setback. And don't even get her started on her attraction to the dead-sexy jerk.

If Nick had a plan, it wouldn't include getting involved with a woman as complicated as Grace. It especially wouldn't include road tripping with her. But as it turns out, traveling--and sparring--with the sharp-witted Grace is the most fun Nick's had since, well, ever. And their chemistry? Off. The. Charts.

Soon, Grace realizes there's more to Nick than a pretty face and a big, um, gun. If she's not careful, she might lose her prized control--and her heart. But first, they'll have to deal with a meddling ex, a slew of dysfunctional family members, and a contaminated pumpkin bisque (long story). It's gonna be a long, complicated week...

You Complicate Me is book 1 in the You Complicate Me series, but can be read as a standalone. Book 2, You Wrecked Me, and book 3, You Ruined Me, are also now available. These books are not intended for anyone who doesn't like characters who cuss, snarky banter, tons of nerdy pop culture references, and all manner of familial silliness. For the rest of you, happy reading!

Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

The normal:

Isabel Jordan writes because it's the only profession that allows her to express her natural sarcasm and not be fired. She is a paranormal and contemporary romance author. Isabel lives in the U.S. with her husband, her son, a neurotic Shepherd mix, and a ginormous Great Dane mix named Jerkface. (Don't feel bad for Jerkface. He really is a jerk.)

The weird:

Now that the normal stuff is out of the way, here's some weird-but-true facts that would never come up in polite conversation. Isabel Jordan:

1. Is terrified of butterflies (don't judge...it's a real phobia called lepidopterophobia)

2. Is a lover of all things ironic (hence the butterfly on the original cover of Semi-Charmed)

3. Is obsessed with Supernatural, Game of Thrones, and Dog Whisperer.

4. Hates coffee. Drinks a Diet Mountain Dew every morning.

5. Will argue to the death that Pretty in Pink ended all wrong. (Seriously, she ends up with the guy who was embarrassed to be seen with her and not the nice guy who loved her all along? That would never fly in the world of romance novels.)

6. Would eat Mexican food every day, if given the choice.

7. Reads two books a week in varied genres.

8. Refers to her Kindle as "the precious".

9. Thinks puppy breath is one of the best smells in the world.

10. Is a social media idgit. (Her husband had to explain to her what the point of Twitter was. She's still a little fuzzy on what Instagram and Pinterest do.)

11. Kicks ass at Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon.

12. Stole her tagline idea from her son. Her tagline idea was, "Never wrong, not quite right." She liked her son's idea better.

13. Breaks one vacuum cleaner a year because she ignores standard maintenance procedures (Really, you're supposed to empty the canister every time you vacuum? Does that seem excessive to anyone else?)

14. Is still mad at the WB network for cancelling Angel in 2004.

15. Can't find her way from her bed to her bathroom without her glasses, but refused eye surgery, even when someone else offered to pay. (They lost her at "eye flap". Seriously, look it up. Scary stuff.)

OMGoodness. Hits every single wish I have in a book, and hits each one with a HUGE 10.

I read a lot. I mean 2 to 3 books a week. So I'm pretty picky in that a book needs to capture me quick and hold me. Otherwise they fall into the DNF stack. This book .. I LOVED. EVERY single page. Every single sentence. It's not angsty where you have to read almost the entire book to get any feels. You get feels on EVERY page! Great feels. Sad feels. I giggled and laughed so much my husband thought I was nuts! Well, more nuts then usual. It seriously had all the feels.
And it's not a book where the h and H don't communicate their misunderstanding and you have to wait until the very damn end for them to get their sh*t together and talk it out like adults. Hate those books.
I usually load up 4 to 5 books each week on my Kindle and then read them all. This time, I went to find more of her books even though I already have 4 more on my kindle ready to read.
My only sadness is that when I went to load up more I found her other books are of a genre I'm not into right now. Paranormal romance. Guess I'll have to break the rom com streak I'm on and give them a try. Cuz this authors writing style is incredible. Love it.
In the meantime I hope soooo much she writes Gage and Sadie's story. Please. Oh pretty please. Now that story will be EPIC. I can just tell.

## LOVED this book. It was crazy good. What a fun and sexy read. And the humor? Top notch. I laughed out loud many times while reading this. The hero and heroine had undeniable chemistry and their witty banter was stellar. The supporting characters were "supporting" and I loved that. I really dislike when parents or siblings take over the entire story. Not so here. They were funny and interesting. This was my first book by this author, but you can bet that I'll be seeking out others she has written. Highly recommended!

P.S. No cliffhanger, no doormat heroine, no dead wife, no cheating, no sex with others, no gorgeous ex-girlfriend, and best of all no manwhore.

Genre Minx Reviews

This is a MUST read for romance readers!!

Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2018

Verified Purchase

I hands down adore You Complicate Me! Right from the start I latched onto the characters of Nick and Grace! I loved how the story unfolded. Grace was absolutely terrified of flying, so, in her attempts to help her through the journey she accidentally became inebriated and that led to disastrous results. If being taken into custody by a sexy air marshal was not enough to embarrass Grace then the fact that Nick was to be her future brother-in-law was almost too much to handle.

Once Grace sobered up she figured that yes, she humiliated herself, but now she was going to show Nick that she was a serious adult and not at all like the first impression she gave him of herself. Only things did not work out so well for her because it seemed as if the humiliating moments just kept coming. Nick for his part like seeing this side of Grace, she was nothing like what he had pictured her to be when he first met her. He liked what he saw of Grace but knew that the last thing he wanted was to even consider having a “thing” with his soon to be sister-in-law (yes, I know that sounds yucky BUT you have to read the story to see that it was handled very well).

Grace felt that Nick was all sorts of fifty shades of sexy but she was not interested in a relationship at all, despite how sexy he was, as she had just come out of a divorce. Both of them armed with their reasons for not following the desire of their hearts and loins were taken for a loop when they finally reached the wedding destination, as Grace’s past showed up in the form of her ex. Something about seeing Grace’s ex set off an alpha male “mine” instinct in Nick and all bets about not pursuing what was building between them was called right off. With a passion burning between them, a wedding that they both agreed should not be happening, and family members that put the “dys” in dysfunctional, Grace and Nick will find that “complicated” may be exactly what they need.

I am such a fan of author Isabel Jordan’s writing! The scenes between the characters of Nick and Grace are wonderfully written. They are comedic but not to outlandish that it seems unrealistic. The chemistry between the characters is easily felt and Nick’s character really brings the swoon. He is an alpha male character but at the same time he almost has this boyish charm working for him. There are scenes in this book that bring on the heart palpitations as well. I also want to mention that the supporting characters are nicely fleshed out and memorable as well. I am hoping that as the series continues that they will play a part in those stories because I just can’t get enough. One thing that I wish the story would have incorporated would have been an epilogue. I want to see where things ended up but really it was just that I wanted the story to continue because it was just AH-MAZING! Give me more!! I highly recommend You Complicate Me to readers everywhere!

This review is based on a complimentary book I received from Author, Isabel Jordan. It is an honest and voluntary review. The complimentary receipt of it in no way affected my review or rating.

An Uncomplicated Great Read

Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2018

If you have avoided Isabel Jordan's books (the amazing Harper Hall Investigation Series) because you don't like anything paranormal, then this is the perfect book for you! All of the humor, chemistry, quirkiness, and alpha goodness and it involves a lawyer and an air marshal - no vampires, werewolves, or magic. The only magic is in the sparks that fly between Grace and Nick. They meet on a plane - and only after Nick has to carry Grace off and nearly arrest her do they find that they are headed to the same wedding. Let's just say they get over the awkward and move on to the "wow". My emotions ranged from swooning to laughing and yes, even to the lonely tear here and there. Witty dialogue from the main characters, and lots of family to take in and enjoy. Loved this book and happy to see there will be a follow up with two characters we meet in this one.

Air Marshall/dysfunctional family rom com.

Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2019

Verified Purchase

This book was hilarious. It made me laugh, swoon, and just smile the whole time. It was so good. It had everything I like in a rom com. Nick and Grace meet while on their way to their younger siblings’ wedding. Nick is an air Marshall and Grace is an attorney. Grace is a nervous flyer and you can imagine what trouble you can get into when you mix Valium with a lot of booze. Nick looks after her and they go on a road trip to get to the hotel where her younger brother is going to marry his younger sister. There was a lot of pop culture references and embarrassing moments for Grace but the chemistry between these two is strong. It was a hoot to watch them fall in love while dealing with her crazily dysfunctional family and stubbornness. This was a fun read and I look forward to reading to the other book in this series.

If there's one thing I detest and I mean utterly detest is an author who can't describe her characters without comparing them to a Hollywood movie star and sure enough 2% into this novel the main male character is described as looking like a young Hugh Jackman!! 😠😠First of all Hugh Jackman doesent appeal to everyone. Second I have a good imagination of my own if you give a basic description I can imagine my own kind of bloke! Last it's Lazy if you don't have the writing talent to describe your own characters then go take an English course!!
