HER OLDER BROTHER'S BEST FRIEND Nicola Hart grew up under the heels of her older brother's best friend, Cash Garrison. Years of ignoring their spark has transformed their friendship into a slow-burning sizzle. One night with him could ruin everything, or it could be more than she ever dreamed. HE CAN'T STAY AWAY FROM She's the definition of hands-off, and Cash has tried to ignore her for years. Those innocent eyes and her smile that screams kiss-me-if-you-dare... Instead, he's looked at every pretty little thing who's crossed his path, all to ignore the girl he seems destined to want. When his hard-partying ways get old and staying away becomes too hard, it's time to stake a claim and hold the hand of the one he really loves. SWEET GIRL is a novel-length prequel to Garrison's Creed, in the Titan series.

From the Author

Dear Reader,

SWEET GIRL started out as an idea for my newsletter subscribers. It was supposed to take my favorite couple through a sexy college romance story complete with a friends-to-lovers and older brother's best friend twist. But their story flowed as I typed, and when I went to review my newsletter story, I was stunned to find more than 55K words staring back at me. I hope you enjoy their every pounding heartbeat and sizzling hot stare as the campus king falls for his best friend's little sister, the girl he's known his whole like as just a friend. Thank you to the Titan readers who encouraged me to write this book.  I poured my heart into their story.

Titan Hugs & Happy Reading,
Cristin Harber

5.0 out of 5 stars OMG I am in absolute love with this entire series
Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2015

OMG I am in absolute love with this entire series. The Titan Group is a private security entity full of badass men and woman who handle things the US government can't. Each Titan novel is packed with tons of high octane action and whirlwind romances. You can find all of my favorite book flavors mixed into the Titan cocktail. We have gun fights, car chases, explosives, kidnappings, the whole nine yards topped with enough spicy naughtiness to keep the heat up. The action doesn't stop.
Harber creates a whole world, with very in depth characters and locations. Cristin does so well with the characters that you know their personalities, likes, dislikes and how they are going to react to any given situation in the novels. And the locations are so descriptive that you can almost believe you just helped rescue a hostage from and Afghani mountain and then spent time in the poshest hotel in Abu Dhabi. Each book has a unique story line and can be read stand alone, however they are best when read in order as a collection to get the full Titan Group experience because most characters carry over into the other books.
The Titan series as whole is considered military romance or romantic suspense and my warnings fall in line with the genre. As mentioned above there is tons of action and tension. There is also graphic violence, language and sex. Be advised content is for mature adults 18+ and for-warned one of the books (Savage Secrets) does contain an non-consensual sex scene. It is only one scene, in one book. So, it can be skipped if you don't have the stomach for that. Overall, I really love the books and cannot wait for the next in the series to be released.
On another note, Cristin has started releasing a new series, Delta, which is related to the Titan series and does contain some of the same characters.

Gah! How do I ... ? I can't even ... !!! It's like, OMG!, college co-eds. For the better part of this book, all you get is college drama, Cash and Nicola dancing around each other and everyone else dancing around them. Jay wants Nicola. Nicola wants Cash. Mira and Jaycee want Cash. Cash wants Nicola. Roman gets overprotective. Cash gets jealous. Brandy gets suspicious. Brandy and Hannah get drunk. Nicola is confused. Cash still wants Nicola. And so it goes. Lots and lots of typical college kids drama. So realistic and so authentically written, I want to tear my hair out and slap a few people around and say "grow up already!"

This story is the prequel to Cash and Nicola's story in Book 2 of the Titan series, Garrison's Creed. This tells us of the connection between Cash and Nicola and what they mean to each other.

Cash is your cocky college superstar. Incredibly good looking, popular and in love with Nicola for as long as he can remember. I adored Cash. He's the kind of guy I wish I had fallen for when I was in college. Smart, funny, popular, kind, sexy and sweet, and so in love with you, it makes your teeth ache.

Nicola is the kid sister of another college superstar, Roman. She's cute, she's shy and she's a little unsure of herself around Cash because her feelings for him scares her. She also made me a little impatient with her because I wanted her to make up her mind, grab onto Cash and not let go, then tell the world instead of hiding it.

They've known each other forever and try to navigate what it means being a couple and being in love means rather than being best friends. It's cute and sweet, and perhaps a little frustrating as they find their way to each other.

And then it all gets ripped away.

It's heartbreaking. Even when I knew how it would end because of reading the blurb to Garrison's Creed, it still breaks my heart. It breaks my heart because you see the connection and the sweet love between a young Cash and Nicola. So full of hope, so sure of the future, so innocent, and in the blink of an eye, it all gets wiped away.

The ending is a little predictable. Ms Harber does a good job of building to what happens to Nicola in the end and even though you see it coming from a mile away, your heart still hurts when it happens.

You cry because Cash cries. You ache because Nicola's world has fallen apart. And you know, for the foreseeable future, for many, many years to come, their lives will never be the same.

Even though Sweet Girl is the prequel to (and was written after) Garrison's Creed, I have been told you don't need to read it to enjoy Garrison's Creed. Me, being rather OCD, I like to read things in order. It helped me to see the connection between Cash and Nicola before I get into their story and how they get their happy ending. What more, after reading this, I want them to have their happy ending.

For the better part of the story, with all the college shenanigans (Ms Harber nails college life!) this sat at a solid 3 stars for me, but being the sap I am, and with the ending the way it was, it was bumped up to a solid 4 stars. Ms Harber has a tendency to do that to me with her writing. I sit along comfortably at a certain level with the book and then without me realising it, she pulls something from under me and blows me away. It's happen twice now and I think it will likely happen again if she remains true to form.

A few things to note: I listened to this rather than read it. I enjoyed Jeffery Kafer again as a narrator. He sort of grows on you after a while. Ms Harber's style also takes a little getting used to. She uses very short, punchy sentences in her writing. Her descriptions and dialogue are both sharp and shiny. There are no extraneous words used. It's a bit like reading or listening in staccato. It takes a little getting used to, but once you do, you realise she has a certain skill in delivering the most impact with the least number of words.

I've also got Garrison's Creed one-clicked and Whispersync for Voice ready to go. It's my next audiobook listen / read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, Deep Character Development

Being a fan of Ms. Harber's books, I've read all the Titan and Delta titles so I was really surprised to realize that I hadn't written a review for this book! "Sweet Girl" is a really lovely story all on it's own, but if you've read the Titan books, it makes Nicola and Cash's story becomes so much more amazing. (Seriously, if you're a Titan fan, you MUST read "Sweet Girl.")

Cash is the best friend to Nicola's brother, Roman. They all grew up together, and now they're in college. There's the expected, "I can't touch my best friend's sister" basis to this story, but so much more. If you like the Coming of Age type of love story, you'll enjoy this story - and I know some reviewers have mentioned frustration with a cliffhanger, but I promise, this is worth reading. Cash and Nicola have terrific chemistry, and the story evolves in interesting, unexpected directions.

Yes, this could be considered a Coming of Age/New Adult, best friend's brother love story, but there's more going on than meets the eye. That's the fun in a Cristin Harber book: there's always an underlying current of action, of real danger. And when you pair this book (and the sequel) to the Titan novels, you end up with a deliciously rich, nuanced, meaningful story of love, loss, and sacrifice. In a sense, this is background character development - if you don't already know the characters, it doesn't matter, you'll still fall in love with them. But if you DO know Cash, Nicola (and yes, also Roman), so many things will hit you even harder in the Feels.

This novella-length book is the prequel to 'Garrison's Creed' – it serves as an introduction to Cash and Nicola's relationship. I would definitely suggest that you read this before moving on to 'Garrison's Creed' (it's free so you might as well!).

'Sweet Girl' was short and very, very sweet! It tells the tale of a burgeoning romance between college students Nic and her brother's best friend, Cash. The author describes in great emotional detail the apprehension and temptation as they dare to cross that line from lifelong friends to lovers. The romance was beautiful – the entire book was just full to bursting with that heart-warming innocence and unrestrained passion of youth. It was just so sweet - I truly fell in love with both Nic and Cash!

The ending was shockingly explosive – I knew that at some point they would be forced apart but I didn't see it happening like that! Cash's grief was just so visceral and heart-wrenching, I actually cried for him. It was almost painful to read (but in a good way!).

I love Nic & Cash! They are my favourite Titan couple. I read Garrison's Creed before Sweet Girl, found out about Sweet Girl, read it & then had to read Garrison's Creed again. I love the way Cristin Harber can make such different but real characters, they really do come alive. Even though I knew how their story was going to end in this book, I was still filled with dread & almost didn't want to read the ending but of course I did. This whole series will forever be one of my fave series & Nic & Cash's story is one that I will love re-reading a million times.
