Just Jack: Everything laid bare Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 123 ratings

just Jack can be read as a standalone book although the book means so much more if you've read The Everything Trilogy.


What happens when you feel you've lost that special bond?


When that someone's loss is like losing an arm?


Don't worry...nobody died.


Growing up with his best friend Lily Jack had never given that a thought, Until one day when the choices she made changed everything between them and their relationship had to shift. Life changes and people with it, which, for Jack, wasn't a bad thing because it made him finally sit up and take notice of himself.


With his future to decide and his second chance at life, Jack could never have known where his onward journey would lead or how these experiences would shape him into a man who could never be described by his friends as 'just Jack.'


Other books connected in the Everything Series, Enough Isn't Everything, Everything She Needs, Everything I Want, Love With Every Beat, Exhale and Move on and the novella Everything Is Yours.

    Warning: Be aware for the following reactions to happen during reading this book, 😂😱😢😉😥😝😨😍
    I love 💚Jack! What an amazing life finding journey he went through in a year's time. This book kept me constantly anticipating what was going to happen next. I had this constant feeling of "oh no, something major is fixin to happen". WOW! Jack surprised me on how wild he could get. The point definitely got across in the book that Jack is drop dead gorgeous and he has females falling at his feet. I was LMAO tons in this book with his hilarious wit! Oh, and I was doing some serious ugly crying in this book as well!
    This book is an absolute must read! K. L. Shandwick did some amazing writing which I wouldn't have expected it any other way. I'm so thankful she found her calling in life. Her storytelling is PROFOUND!😘

    I just finished reading " just Jack" and it has touched my heart like no other book ever has. I was introduced to Jack in KL Shandwick's "The Everything Trilogy" and I just loved everything about him. Jack was sexy, a smart ass, loving, caring and very devoted to his friends and family. In "just Jack" you get to see more of that but you also see Jack go thru a series of revelations and life changing events that make him more then just Jack. This story has everything..humor,betrayal,tragedy,romance, love and we can't forget about the steamy hot sex...omg. It had me laughing,crying and getting very hot. Once I started I couldn't put it down. This is most definitely a MUST read!!
    I have read all of KL Shandwicks books and have loved them but I have to be honest and say this one is my favorite.
    KL Shandwick you did it again !! You totally Rock !!

    Jack is the latest book in the Everything Series, hopefully not the last I love the series and especially this book. Jack has been something of a man whore who is starting to want more. After breaking up with his longtime girlfriend,he was fond of but wasn't sure he loved. Jack takes a leave of absence from work to find himself. Jack grows as a person and a man. This book made me love Jack, he becomes so much more than he was. This book brought a variety of emotion to me,it made me laugh, cry and at times broke my heart. When Jack meets Mya... you must read this book. I don't have the words to describe just how wonderful the book is. Five well deserved stars because I can't give it 10

Truly can't wait to see what KL, Shandwick, writes next.

    Jack Cunningham’s story was a ride full of emotions! I loved how raw and real his journey felt, his friendship with Lily Parnell is so intense, and when things fall apart, you feel his heartbreak. The way he struggles with love, loss, and forgiveness made me really connect with him. If you love a story that digs deep into emotions and gives you all the feels, this one is a must-read.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 20, 2015
    There is a book comes along once in a while that makes you sit up and go wow !
    This for me is one of those books. I absolutely loved this!

    A really great book to me is one that you can't stop thinking about, when your not able to read straight through because of the actions of life getting in the way. So when your doing the motions of chores or taking care of small children your mind is elsewhere imagining the lives of the characters, the storyline you've read so far and the possibilities of where the story will go. Questions and questions swirl in your head and your literally itching to grab the book back up and immerse yourself back in its world! This is how I felt with this book to the point I picked it up and just read and read and read, in my head I kept thinking one more chapter until at 3.15 in the morning I realised I only had the epilogue left !!!

    This story is about Jack, a character we first met in the authors Everything Trilogy (which is also an amazing read) I loved the character of Jack in that series so when I heard that Jack was getting his own story I was ecstatic.
    I was expecting to enjoy this book after really liking the character from that earlier series but wow this totally went above my expectations. I love how KL Shandwick can have me laughing then crying and then swooning at the story she unfolds. I don't want to give any spoilers away but I will say this provided me with a huge curve ball I didn't see coming too. All my thoughts while reading were blown out of the water with revelation and I loved it !

    KL Shandwick always delivers a wonderful story that captures the reality of life in the fiction form, bringing the vulnerability and struggles characters endure into her writing. I love her style of bringing in the relationships and actions of all characters and showing many factors can have an effect on choices and the way life plays out.

    In short this story has everything and I'd wholeheartedly recommend it. Well done Ms Shandwick you never fail to blow me away.

    Reviewed in Australia on July 27, 2017
    Jack and Lily were the best of friends from a young age and as they got older and realised that they were developing feelings for each other, they decided to have a little distance, that was the most miserable time of their lives. With Lily meeting Alfie, Jack know he will always be part of her life, but not as import and now it would be Just Jack, and he had to work out the missing half of him.
    After breaking up with his ex, Rosie because he wasn’t in love with her, he meets a girl called Gini and feels a connection, but it doesn’t work out.
    Deciding to take a break from everything Jack heads away for six months and when he returns after trying to reunite with Rosie with no success, Jack takes the opportunity to tour with Rick’s band.
    Seeing a music technician that stirs feelings in him, Jack is surprised to find out that it’s Rick’s niece Mya, even more surprised when Rick tells her it’s up to her, he doesn’t tell her what she can and can’t do. With Mya and Jack slowly becoming closer friends and with a little push, one night after a accidently kiss, Jack feels like he never has before.
    After they left the tour and returned home, Jack knew he had to work out things with Lily. Holidaying with Mya, he realises that life is too short for what if’s and on a day that they should be so happy Jack gets news that will change their lives.
    I loved happily ever after ending and how Jack although he was still Jack, he ended up with more than he could have ever imagined and was more than Just Jack.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome ..!!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 12, 2015
    We were completely taken by Jack from the very beginning with his witty sense of humour and Jack the Lad personality he thought he had it all until situations and circumstances started to shift.
    After ending his relationship with Rosie he decided to take off for 6 months and take stock, when he came home he felt a lot better about himself but there was still something missing from his life.
    Jack started questioning himself where women were concerned, he couldn't seem to get it quite right but all that was about to change because he met Mya.
    The chemistry between the two of them was undeniable but we had already witnessed this with Lily and very briefly Gina which was a crazy moment I have to say, Gina I mean anyway as Jack and Mya spent more time together you could tell they were defiantly meant for each other.
    I love what K. L. Shandwick does with her characters, she makes you feel so connected to them she kind of brakes their personalities right down and puts them back together and the cover of the book really does look like Jack, that is exactly how you imagine him to be.!
    Jack and Lily falling out was very sad you really felt it because their bond is unbreakable but Jack finding out that Rosie could be carrying his baby and Lily knowing but not telling him earlier on changed everything.
    A lot happens in between and Mya's take no prisoners attitude was great for Jack but just as things couldn't be more perfect, Jack putting a ring on Mya's finger etc there was about to be a shocking discovery nothing could prepare Jack for what he was about to be told and just as Jack thought his and Mya's relationship was about to crumble before his very eyes he couldn't have been more wrong.
    Mya with her voice of reason and her love of all things Jack put everything into perspective for them and as Jack is trying to come to terms with his new situation Mya is right there by his side taking it all on board and from that moment on it was just perfect, a few ups and downs but it all came together, we couldn't of asked for a better outcome, yet another brilliant and beautiful story from this author she certainly knows how to captivate you, I wish there was more ?
    Thank you again.!!

    An enjoyable read that I devoured in one sitting. Jack is, well he’s a bit of a tart but one that grew on me the further into his story I got. Swear he had more ups and downs (and not just between the sheets) than a rollercoaster but each one was needed to help him grow. Really good characters and story.
