Danny and Liv are back…Danny loves Liv. He knows he loves her more than she loves him because she ran without a word when she saw their future mapped out before her. He knows he will never love anyone like he loved her and this time he doesn’t think he can move on.
Liv loves Danny. She knows she loves him more than he loves her because he broke her heart in the worst possible way, right when things were falling into place. She knows she will never love anyone like she loves him and this time she doesn’t think she can move on.
They needed a second chance because they just weren’t ready for their first, but when events changed everything between them, they discovered they were just human after all. Now Liv and Danny have to find a way to survive being hurt by each other.
They doubted, they underestimated and they did believe the worst, but only because they were too young the first time and too vulnerable the second time. But now they have changed and if they are not the same, surely things can only turn out differently?

MICHELLE’S REVIEW
***This is a book 2 in a series. You will need to read Just Human first***
Oh Danny and Liv. I have such a love/hate relationship with this series.
Mostly I love Danny and pretty much constantly hate Liv.
Sorry I’m not sorry.
So let me start by saying you have to read Just Human before you read Still Human.
And both books are good but also maddening.
In Just Human, with a push from Liv’s great-aunt Connie, Danny reaches out to Liv after YEARS of being apart from one another. Both have never found a love like the one they have had since they were just children. A love that grew from friendship to more. But they were too young to know that they were both so in love with each other. And so they went their separate ways. But the love never died.
So all of that should make your heart skip a beat.
BUT then it turns out that even though they grew up in age- they held onto their insecurities. So at the end of Just Human- you are left with a cliffhanger as Liv thinks Danny has cheated and Danny thinks Liv is just not in love with him enough to want to spend the rest of her life with him.
So in Still Human- both Max and Jen (Liv and Danny’s besties, respectively) push for a reconciliation. I pretty much fell in love with Danny instantly in this book. You just can’t be a man that fights this hard for love and not love him. Normally I would call him a mangina and move on. But with Danny it just works. He loves Liv so. damn. much. And his insecurities should be annoying but they just aren’t.
Danny works his ass off to make Liv see that she is the only one for him. And the whole time you cannot help but root for him. It’s like:
Of course this is also where I just start to loathe Liz. Give the guy a break ice queen!!!
So Danny and Liv do not know how to communicate at all. I mean no two people have been worse at talking to one another. But in Just Human, they were both bad. I feel like in Still Human Danny is better and constantly trying and Liv is just a bitch.
I get that she has trust issues but based off of what??
What I love is that her family and friends (mostly Max and Connie) don’t let her get away with being a bitch. They call her on it and they help Danny so that eventually it is Liz who has to fix things if she wants to.
You’ll have to read the book to find out more though.
Overall, I liked the writing style. This was book 2 (well book 3) really in my tour of England this week. But since Danny is American there was a good mix- though sometimes Danny sounded British- especially towards the end. But that’s ok- he is half British after all.
I did feel like the drama between the two ended fairly quickly and so at about 50% I was like- what now?? I’m not saying I wanted it to be dragged out to long but their story felt fairly wrapped up to me a little over halfway though. But you got to see Danny be a total sweetheart so its a win for you, dear reader!
I do recommend this book for lovers of a second chance romance and of course if you read Just Human you have to know how it all ends!
EXCERPT
***BE ADVISED - MATURE CONTENT***
I’m determined to go out tonight, but he’s making it so hard. I turn in his arms and face him. He’s impossible to resist. I gasp as his hand slips inside the delicate lace of my underwear and shudder when his finger brushes my clit. I kiss him, slowly, as his fingers enter me. I know we’re not leaving this room tonight, but I keep up the pretence for a minute longer. While I’m lingering around his ear, I whisper what I wish he could do to me if we weren’t going out to dinner. He moans, turned on by my explicit words, so I continue, telling him what I wish I could do to him. Then, what I say to him turns him on so much it almost gets him there.
I whisper. “Oh, screw it. Use me…don’t hold back, take what you need.”
“Oh God, Liv.” He groans as I sink to kneel at his feet.
I take him in my mouth, running my tongue all the way around him to ease my path. He sighs at first but as I move, his sighs become whispers, the whispers become moans. Then as I begin to accept him deeper and deeper, his hands appear, ready to do what I asked. To use me and take what he needs.
He is never rough, but I love it when he takes control. That first night we were together, it happened by accident, but the effect on both of us was amazing, it’s something he knows I love now and he doesn’t feel bad about it. He forces himself into my mouth, over and over again, while my fingers dig into his thighs. My hands give an indication to him of just how much I can take. Occasionally they twitch up, almost at the point of asking him to stop, but I never do. I can take it, but it drives him crazy, thinking I’m on the verge of begging him to stop.
I make that low throaty moan he loves and he gasps.
“Jesus, Liv.” He hisses. “Touch yourself.”
A thrill goes through me and I willingly oblige, sliding my hand under the soft lace of my underwear. He can’t see, but he knows I’m doing it. I moan to let him know I’ve hit home and he seems to lose control at the thought. Focusing hard on his goal, he uses long, slow strokes. I roll my tongue around him every time he almost withdraws and accept him back as deep as possible each time he pushes in. His jagged breaths tell me he’s getting close and my fingers bring a stifled moan from me that seals the deal for him.
“I’m gonna come.” He moans desperately. I simply allow him to use me to get there, I love it when he really lets go “Oh God.” He gasps as his body tenses, then releases into my willing mouth.
He shudders as he finishes. Looking down at me, he laughs.
I’m breathless and weak with need, but I’m happy on this occasion to make that all about him. It’s one in the bank for me later, not that we’re keeping score. Trembling a little, I stand and wipe away the tears he forced from my eyes with his deep thrusting.
“Can we go to dinner now?” I smirk.
“I don’t think you were finished.” He grins, trailing a finger along the fabric of my knickers.
“Later.” I say firmly, moving his hand away.
“No, now!” He demands, lifting me suddenly.
I shriek, “Danny! Put me down!” Which he does, on the bed, with a thump. He yanks my underwear to the side and sucks in my clit, before I know what has happened.
“Oh, God!” I cry as his fingers push inside me.
