He's used to getting what he wants... but she’s going to make him work for it.

Sebastian Knight is a closer. Be it a real estate deal or the woman of his choice, everything he wants is his for the taking.

Sexy and irresistible, a wink, a smile, or a handshake always seals the deal. 
Until everything unravels around him.

After Ashley Easton’s social climbing mother married into the Knight family, Ashley knew better than to get involved with sexy, trouble making Sebastian Knight but their attraction is undeniable, their chemistry intense, and in a moment of weakness, she turns to him, a mistake that cost her her home and her family. After she was sent away, she swore she’d never come back.

Sebastian never expected to see Ashley, the one woman he’s never been able to get over, again.

When she walks back into his life at the worst possible time, more beautiful than ever, he’s ready for a second chance. She’s sassy and sexy everything he’s ever desired. And she’s back for good. Except Ashley wants nothing to do with the playboy who broke her heart. Too bad his sex appeal makes it harder and harder to keep him at arm’s length.

Sebastian Knight might have a talent for sealing the deal but this is one game he’s going to have to work to win.

Take Me Again is the first in a new series about the Knight family.  This one is Ashley and Sebastian's story.  It's a quick second chance love story.  Ashley and Sebastian have a history.  They were friends once and tried to ignore the attraction between them because Ashley was only 16 at the time.  When they are caught kissing, Ashley is sent to boarding school and never came back.  Now she is back in town for Sebastian's sister-in-law's funeral.  The attraction is still there.

I enjoyed the book.  I really liked Ashley and Sebastian together.  I was worried that Ashley would hold the errors of youth over his head for far too long.  But she wisely forgave and let things go.  I ended up really rooting for them.  Sebastian had a need to want to please his family and show he could be trusted.  I felt like he had a lot of growth by the end of the book.  There is a little mystery that the two have to solve in regards to a big company account.  It wasn't ahrd to fiugure out, but it added a lot to the story. I am looking forward to reading about the other siblings in the series.  Patrick's story is up next.  I do recommend this one.  It was a great first in a new series.
