Tash
I wondered how it was possible—if Jem Wolfe was so wrong, then how could this all feel so damn right.

Jem
I knew I didn't deserve someone like her, but I was done standing on the fucking dark side of the moon. Sometimes you had to find the light or just drown in the blackness of it all.

Tashlyn Younglove has returned to Blackthorn Ridge, the town where her dad died sixteen years earlier. As she unravels the mystery behind her father's death, dark secrets are revealed, putting her in grave danger. All the while, Tashlyn finds herself falling hard for Jem Wolfe, the youngest son of the town's most notorious family. Can she trust the man who has stolen her heart?

Jem Wolfe returned to Blackthorn Ridge to keep his brother, Dane, out of trouble. When Tashlyn Younglove moves to town, she dredges up the town's dark history, a history that involves Jem's dad. At the same time, Jem finds himself falling hard for her. Will a long buried ugly truth push Tashlyn from his arms for good?

Physical Distraction Great Suspenseful Romance! Reviewed by Loraine Oliver

Reviewed in the United States on 3 October 2015

Physical Distraction by Tess Oliver is a really suspenseful book that keeps you guessing until the last few pages of the book, I know I would not have figured it out until I read it! This is a stand alone novel that does not end on a cliffhanger. This book is filled with emotional, physical and sexual angst. The book has two main characters, and a rich cast of minor characters which really enhances this book. I recommend this book to people who like a little bit of romance with a lot of mystery to go with it!

Tashlyn is a young woman who has lived with her father's sister since she was 7 years old, and her father was murdered right before her eyes 16 years ago. If it were not for someone finding her and telling her to run a long time ago she would have died right along with her father. Her Aunt Carly lives in a commune called The Grog and Tashlyn led a happy life there growing up and having so many peace loving people looking out for her. However she has never put her father's death out of her mind so decides she is going to go back to the town it happened in to see if she can find out what really happened. All she remembers is wandering and being found at the Ranger's Station.

So with her Aunt's blessing and a packet of post cards with stamps on them so she can write her Aunt everyday, (as they do not use cell phones at The Grog), she hops on the bus and travels to Blackthorn Ridge. On the bus she meets up with Everly and they become fast friends. Everly invites her to stay at her home with her, instead of in the rundown motel she was going to check into and it is closer to the job she found in the classified Ads so she gratefully accepts. She also tells Everly about her Dad dying at the Phantom Curve, a place that is known for semi trucks running off the road and falling all the way to the bottom of the cliff. Everly tells her there are at least 10 shrines on the stretch of road. So Everly agrees to wait for Tashlyn at her Uncle's market while Tashlyn crosses the bridge to visit the Phantom Curve, but she still remembers nothing.

While there she runs into the Wolfe brothers, Jem and Dane. Dane is the older one but not really all there sometimes and Jem has looked out for Dane since he was younger. Jem helps her back up the path she had slipped down and she thanks him and goes to Everly's house.

When she goes to the job site at the lumber mill and meets her boss he is so happy to have her work for him, and she is is overwhelmed at all the men gawking at her! However her interest is snagged by the town bad boy, and although a few people warn her he is bad news she can't help but like him. Jem is handsome and she can see through his bad boy persona to the nice man underneath.

Not everyone in Blackthorn Bridge is glad to see Tashlyn back in town however as the town hides a multitude of crimes and criminals to go with it. Things start happening to Tashlyn that scare her and cause her to start remembering what she blocked out all those years ago. One thing is for sure; the same people who killed her father 16 years ago are now going to find a way to do away with her!

Read this book, I guarantee that you will be just as surprised as I was at who is behind all these crimes! The added bonus is the rest of the story and the relationship between Jem and Tashlyn!

I gave this book 5***** well earned stars! I look forward to the next book by Tess Oliver, she is the best!

Another excellent read from Tess Oliver!! This one was a bit different to her usual stuff, there's more intrigue and suspense, lots of mystery going on. And of course there's one hell of a hot romance going on and a scorchingly sexy alpha male hero, this is Tess after all! Boy does she write a hot hero well!
I really enjoyed this book, I couldn't put it down, I just HAD to find out what happened to Tashlyn and her dad all those years ago.
This story is about Tashlyn who lost her dad when she was a child to a trucking accident leaving her an orphan. She was raised by her hippy aunt in a commune, and now at 23 she's returned to the town of the site of her dad's accident. She needs answers, not least to how she came to be wandering around the forest as a lost and scared seven year old child on the night of her dad's death. There she meets Jem Wolfe, town bad boy living under the shadow of his family's bad name. She warned about him, told if she's any sense she'll stay away, but she's drawn to him and feels a connection to him right off the bat.
This story intrigued me greatly, as did the characters. Other than the main characters, Dane in particular piqued my interest. I'm wondering if he'll get his own book, he's a bit mysterious and it's evident he has some difficulties and issues, I'd love to read more of him.
I definitely recommend this book, those of you who have read Tess before will know she can do no wrong when it comes to her books, I've yet to find one I haven't loved. Those of you who haven't read her yet, well why the hell not?!

Enjoyable, suspenseful and an excellent book

I truly enjoyed this book. The characters of Jem & Tashlyn were well written along with the other minor characters. This story is about Tashlyn who, at 7 years old, was with her dad when his truck went off the road in Blackthorn Ridge and he was killed. The next thing she remembers is waking up at a ranger station cold, dirty and confused due to a loss of memory. She goes to live with her Aunt Carly in a hippy commune called The Grog but cannot find peace until she learns what happened the night of her dad's accident. So, she goes back to Blackthorn Ridge to try to find exactly what happened the night her dad died. There, she meets the bad boy of the town, Jem Wolfe who is living under the cloud of his family's bad name. His attraction to Tashlyn is almost immediate even though he had told her to stay away from him. She is drawn to Jem and begins the process of putting the pieces of her memory back together.
I would highly recommend this book. The character development was very good and it has enough suspense to keep you interested. I have read other books by Tess Oliver and, like the others, it did not disappoint.
