Once I have her right where I want her, I\u2019ll do whatever it takes to prove I more than need her.<\/p>\n<p><em>This book is the second in the More Than Words series.

It took years for him to realize what he did and why but now he wants them both back.<br \/>\nMore Than Need You doesn&#8217;t pick up right where More Than Want You ended, but about a couple of weeks before.<br \/>\nBritta Stone loved Griffin with everything she had, he was her first in all ways and when he shoved her away he crushed her.<br \/>\nWhen she finally is moving on with her life, Griffin comes roaring back claiming that he didn&#8217;t know about their son and that he still loves her.<br \/>\nMan, Black wrote a good one here. Griffin trying to prove that he does in fact want to be the man that Britta need, even though she already is engaged, shows that he knows what he did all though years ago was beyond stupid. Britta still loves him and she fights so hard against it and its no wonder with how badly he hurt her, should she believe that he is changed and give him another chance or should she stand continue to guard her heart and marry a man she doesn&#8217;t love just because she knows he&#8217;s a safe bet.<br \/>\nSeeing Griff try to get her back is awesome, but seeing him be a father? That right there is panty melting!!!<br \/>\nYes Griff did something stupid, but when he explains why he has such a hard time trusting the good in things you can see that it was bound to happen at some point, it just happened with his brother and Britta and it ended up hurting him too.<br \/>\nAlso, seeing him get his brother back and to be working with him, shows that family is everything and you really need to talk before you do something stupid when you jump to conclusions.<br \/>\nI can&#8217;t wait to see what happens with Griffin and Maxon&#8217;s sister in the next book, if she&#8217;s anything like her brother&#8217;s it&#8217;s gonna be good.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7992 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shaylablack.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Buy-Now-300x94.png?resize=300%2C94&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"94\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2n0Jm6G\">Kindle US<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2mtWHkT\">Kindle UK<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2m1adjK\">Kindle CA<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/MTNY-KindleAUS\">Kindle AU<\/a><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/MTNY-Nook\">Nook<\/a> I<a href=\"http:\/\/apple.co\/2kwZX1G\"> iBooks<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/MTNY-Kobo\">Kobo<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8293 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shaylablack.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/MoreFromShayla-300x94.png?resize=300%2C94&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"94\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8583 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shaylablack.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/01-MoreThanWantYou-200X300-200x300.jpg?resize=200%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/>More Than Want You, Book 1<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2idFkq8\">Kindle US<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2iGQFv7\">Kindle UK<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2idvdBY\">Kindle CA<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/MTWY-KindleAUS\">Kindle AU<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/MTWY-Nook\">Nook<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/MTWY-iBooks\">iBooks<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/MTWY-Kobo\">Kobo<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8719 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shaylablack.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/03-MoreThanLoveYou-600X900-200x300.jpg?resize=200%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>More Than Love You (More Than Words, Book 3)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Available for Preorder \u2013 Arriving February 13, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/mtly-AMUKblg\">Amazon UK<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/mtlyAM\">Amazon US<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/mtlyIB\">iBooks<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/mtlyKB\">Kobo<\/a> I <a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/mtly-AM-Pbl\">Print<\/a><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/shayla.link\/mtlyOVBLG\">Find out more<\/a><strong> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7991 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shaylablack.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/About-Shayla-300x94.png?resize=300%2C94&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"94\" \/><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6744 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.shaylablack.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Shayla_Black_Headshot-202x300.jpg?resize=202%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"202\" height=\"300\" \/>Shayla Black is the <em>New York Times<\/em> and <em>USA Today<\/em> bestselling author of more than fifty novels.
