Book Review – Lover Unleashed (Black Dagger Brotherhood #9) by JR Ward

5 stars!!!

“All his life he’d wondered why he’d never fallen in love, and now he knew: He’d been waiting for this moment, this woman, this time. The female is mine, he thought. “ – Manny

Wow I did not realize how much I had missed the BDB world and JR Ward’s writing until I picked this up! This book kept me up reading till the wee hours of the morning and actually ended up being one of my favs in the series ( tied with Rhage, Wrath, and Zsadist’s books).

I squeeeed out loud so many times while reading it!!

JR Ward is a truly gifted author – her books are the perfect blend of humor, HOT romance, sweet HEA endings (of course!), wonderful world building with plenty of action, and a reoccurring group of favorite characters/couples that never fail to bring a smile to your face and tug at your heart strings.

In case you havent read anyof the BDB books yet, the opening lines of this book will give you a feel for the writing style:

“‘I want to blow you.’ Dr. Manny Manello swiveled his head to the right and looked at the woman who’d spoken. It was hardly the first time he’s heard that combination of words, and the mouth they’d come out of certainly had enough silicone in to offer a good cushion… at another time in his life, he probably would have taken her up on it, under the why-the-hell-not theory. Now? File that under not-so-much…she leaned forward, flashing him a set of breasts that didn’t so much defy gravity as flip it off, insult its mother, and piss on its shoes…. Candace was one of those Manhattan social types who was nothing but a pimp away from being a prostitute…”

This book wasn’t just about Payne and Manny even though they were the ‘main’ couple of the story. It was also almost equally about Vishous and Jane’s relationship, and consequently V and Butch. For some reason, I always liked them both as individuals but never fully connected with then in Lover Unbound as a couple, but in this book, it just kinda brought their story full circle for me.

And V and Butch’s storyline is really wonderful – I love how they are closer than brothers, but not crossing the line into a romantic relationship, but still somehow, there is something deeper going on there. I love the healing process Butch brings to V’s terribly tortured character – its incredibly heart warming/wrenching.

“Listen to me. You have the fashion of a park bench and the interpsonal skills of a meat cleaver —“
“Is this supposed to be helping?”
“Let me finish–“
“What’s next? The size of my cock?”
“Hey – even pencils can get the job done – I’ve heard the moaning from your room… I’m just telling you – you need that female in your life. Don’t fuck shit up. Not now – not ever, feel me?”

I loved Payne’s character!! She was so adorable but strong, with a no BS attitude even in the face of dealing with a horrible situation..

“Payne looked back through the glass at the human on the bed. “Yes. I am in love with him. And if you try to dissuade me by the fact that I have not lived yet enough to judge, I say unto you…fuck off.”

And Manny was the perfect male for her.  For Payne, as a born fighter, dealing with being paralyzed is literally a fate worse than death and the way they were just crazy about each other and then how he healed her was just so heart warming… and HOT!  did I mention the hot part? 🙂  …I think that since he didn’t originate from their world, it was part of what helped the book feel so much like the first ones, because it allowed the reader to see into the world again almost like an outsider in a way – it gives it an extra thrill. But they were seriously adorable as a couple together!

I love how no 2 relationships in this world are the same – there is always something new and unique about each one so it never gets repetative.

And it was so good to see little bits of the other Brothers – Rhage in the triage (!!) he only had a few lines but boy was I reminded of how much I love him!!

Manny to Rhage as he stitches him up while Rhage is trying to get him to tend to the others first:

“You’re all right, you know that.”
“Fuck…that…” The fighter smiled, flashing fangs. “I’m… perfect.” <3 <3 Yes, you are Rhage! lol

And Wrath! I don’t know why but something about him just makes me squeee and read with the silliest grin on my face whenever he is in the scene.

Also really good to see so much of Qhuinn “scanning through inside of the club, he put his fuck filter on and began weeding through the women…” I’m so stoked that him and Blay are getting their own book! Those boys need a HEA!!

I’m going to start Lover Reborn first thing tomorrow – I hear that Tohr sizzles in it!! …. that guy SO deserves something happy to happen to him!

Book Review – Ride the Fire by Pamela Clare

4 stars.

“Men who hurt Women are my favorite men to kill. Touch her and I’ll send you straight to hell – with a smile on my face!” ~Nicholas

This is the first real historical romance novel that I’ve read (not counting the big epic ones). It came highly recommended to me as a touching romance and it was.

On the Frontier, in the mid 1700’s, Bethie is a woman 8 months old pregnant with the child of her newly-deceased older husband that her family married her off to. Nicholas is from a wealthy family but currently living as a soldier/trapper/tracker and comes across her house badly wounded and demands she tend his wounds at gunpoint. Naturally she does the logical thing lol, she drugs him and ties him to her bed and their relationship goes from there 😛

One of the book’s major themes is overcoming sexual abuse. Bethie (and to a certain extent Nicholas) were abused in their pasts and the fears, concerns and trust issues are something that Nicholas helps Bethie overcome over the course of the book. Actually at the front of the book is a dedication from the author saying:

“This book is dedicated to all victims of sexual assault. May you find the courage, love, and healing you need to live a full life.” – PC

The way Nicholas cares for her is deeply touching – I loved all the parts of the book that dealt with the development of their relationship. And I also loved how easily and whole-heartedly he accepted Bethie’s daughter into his life despite her not being his biological child. He was a wonderful hero – strong, protective, possessive, gentle, caring… The book has sweet moments, hot moments, external drama (battle/war) moments, no romantic heartbreak moments… all in all a good read. Its also not very long – only took me about 4 hours.

Buuuut, I’ll say that despite really enjoying the story, this genre is not for me. I’m not fond of the ‘old style’ language (all the ’twas’, bonny faces, heavy stones, and all). I understand that it makes sense for the timeline of the story, but it takes away from my reading enjoyment.

I also found all the historical background/plot stuff boring, I’ll freely admit that I skimmed some of the battles a bit. In a 350 page book, there simply wasn’t the time time make me engrossed enough in the overall background history enough to fully care about their war with the Indians, or the defence of their fort etc enough to want to follow that storyline, I really just cared about Nicholas and Bethie’s relationship.

I’m glad I read this book, and I’d highly recommend it to any historical romance fan or anyone who wanted to try a HR out, but I don’t think I’ll be reading anymore within the genre myself.

5 stars!!

 “I don’t want anyone else – just you. And no matter where I am, wherever I go, you’re the only one who is holding my heart.“  ~Ryan

I was told that this book basically felt a lot like Thoughtless minus Denny and boy were they freaking RIGHT!! For those of you who were also fans of Thoughtless, remember those heart racing moments where you just had to keep turning the pages and probably couldn’t stop even if you wanted to?? Well oh boy does this book have you doing that too! I swear I barely blinked for the final 25%.

The story is told from the perspective of Taryn Mitchell, the owner of a bar in a small town which is being used to shoot the next major huge Hollywood movie. Starring in this movie is the world’s biggest, hottest, most coveted celebrity actor Ryan Christensen (think RPattz at the height of the Twilight fame except maybe even bigger!!). He is running away from rabid fans one day and ends up in taking refuge in her bar and the rest is history.

I really like how Taryn’s character was not infatuated with his movie star persona (she hadn’t even seen any of his movies) and how Ryan was such a down to earth, normal guy dealing with uber-mega fame. Both their characters were instantly likable… Ryan is totally adorable! He definitely made the book boyfriend list 🙂

I loved that their relationship progressed at a believable pace… they had instant attraction but didn’t just jump into bed instantly, they flirted, got to know each other, their relationship  developed …healthily…  it was really fun to read!

“So… am I to understand that you’re mine”” I asked teasingly.
“I can be yours if you want me to be, Taryn,” he whispered.”

Ryan and Taryn were adorable together!! I loved how crazy they were about each other and how hard they both fought to make their relationship work no matter what obstacles were thrown in their way.

“Gently he rolled me onto my back; his eyes opened and locked onto mine. ‘Are you sure? ‘cuz I want you more than air right now.'” ~Ryan

I loved that the book dealt with pretty much every situation a couple in their position (big-time romantic hero lead movie star + regular girl) would have to deal with in real life: dealing with tabloids printing lies, being followed by rabid fans, cameras, paparazzi literally everywhere, crazy obsessed stalkers, feelings of jealousy (dealing with him having to kiss hot actresses for his movies), invasion of privacy, the importance of staying grounded and having a close knit family, being able to trust each other, dealing with constant separation (shooting schedules), etc…

“The biggest question in my mind was whether peace and insanity could survive together in harmony.”

But what made all of that *points above* bearable was how functional they were as a couple. They talked through their issues. There was very little irrationality in either of their actions. Sure there were misunderstandings and drama but I could definitely understand how those situations arose, and it wasn’t out of stupidity.

Thankfully though, there is no cheating in this book. And while it doesn’t end with a HEA, you definitely get the idea that they are headed for one. Its not a cliffhanger either, but lets just say, there is a lot more to their story.

I think Ryan sums it up pretty well:

“…its our crazy story… Its been ours, only ours. There’s been a lot of romance, sometimes way too much drama… Very memorable comedy, a few pulse-racing action scenes… We’ve also had out fair share of suspense and raw terror, and unfortunately gut-wrenching heartache too. But through it all you’ve loved me, unconditionally, and I know how fortunate I am to have your love…” (the scene goes on to happy mushy stuff which I won’t spoil for you lol)

Basically, if you liked Thoughtless, you are almost certainly guaranteed to like this!! And if you haven’t read Thoughtless, and you are just a fan of romance, you are almost certain to love this. The characters feel very real, the story is engaging and the love story is utterly adorable 🙂

Here are some quotes:

You know what I think? I think you should stop all this nonesense and screw the shit out of him until he passes out from exhaustion…you’ll have to feed him, of course, to keep his energy level up, but make sure you hide his clothes so he can’t get dressed. Men can’t run when they’re naked.”  ~Advice from Taryn’s best friend (they give the best advice, no?? lol)

“Ryan… you know damn well you can get any girl you want whenever you want. There are women all around the globe who would pay to have sex with you…”
He started laughing. “How much money do you think I could make from all these women who want to have sex with me?”
“Billions.”
“Really? Help me drag a mattress out into the front yard. You can sell lemonade and I’ll just fuck people all day!” he cackled.”

“Do I have to make a poster and scream Ryan, Ryan?” I kidded.
“The only time I want to hear you scream my name is when I’m making love to you. Although you did call me God the other night. That’s acceptable, too.”

Book Review – Where She Went (If I stay #2) by Gayle Forman

Book Review – Where She Went (If I stay #2) by Gayle Forman

by · 1 Comment

Again, just like with book 1, almost 4 stars but not quite… maybe more like 3.5

I feel like something must be wrong with me because everyone else who read these books seems to have sobbed their way through them but I only even got misty eyed about 5 times between the 2 books…

This book is told from Adam’s perspective, several years after Mia got on a plane to go to Julliard and basically never looked back…. his own band skyrockets to world-wide fame in the mean time and he is in NYC one day just before he is about to go on tour and happens to have a few free hours where, by chance, he sees one of Mia’s performances and ends up reconnecting with her over the course of a 24 hour period…

I guess maybe part of the reason I didn’t connect with the characters as much as that their feelings for each other weren’t really spoken about that much until the end. It felt like this book was more about Adam trying to find outwhy she left him so abruptly, but less about their longing for each other. I didn’t intensity or sparks between them… which is something I usually really look for.

Also, I never understood why he wouldn’t go after her?? If my boyfriend left suddenly and didn’t return my calls/emails, and I felt as strongly for him as Adam apparently felt for Mia, I’d hop on a plane and deal with it. I’d want answers… I couldn’t relate to him leaving the subject alone for so many years without ever doing anything about it.

“But…” I grasp for the words like a drowning man reaching for floating debris, “… you said you hated me?”
Mia lets out a long, deep sigh. “I know. I needed someone to hate, and you’re the one I love the most, so it fell to you.” 

Also, this story was very YA and although I have read many YA books that gave me a close connection to the characters, I feel that this one could have used at least a few more scenes where Adam and Mia’s attraction to each other was explored. I knew they cared for each other, but I didn’t have much in the way of scenes that made me feel it. There was a lot of time devoted to Adam thinking about the past, but I guess the romance reader in me I wanted more Adam + Mia time.

But like I said with book 1, I think this would make an absolutely phenomenal movie. It really reads almost like one. I think it would make an even better movie that it is a book.

I loved the snippets of songs from Adam’s rock band though. They were great and really tied in beautifully with the story.

“First you inspect me
Then you dissect me
Then you reject me
I wait for the day
That you’ll resurrect me.”

It did have a HEA though 🙂

After this, I’m going to take a break from YA… I’ve read a bunch recently and as much as I love them, I think I need a hot steamy romance with a hunky possessive tortured bad boy hero next 😛

Check out all these awesome new books & deals!!!  😀

 

MAKE IT A DOUBLE by Sawyer Bennett <– My Newest Recommendation!!

I finished this book at 3AM last night and LOVED IT!!!!! The hero spent the last 5 years in prison and had lost everything important to him and the heroine has distanced herself from the life of luxury she came from and she spends her time helping abused animals in a shelter. When she meets him, they actually don’t get off on the best of terms right away but they have this really strong connection and she “is powerless to stop her personal quest to make Brody whole again.”

I’ll have a real review up tomorrow but basically, I read it as a standalone even though it’s technically the second in a series of standalones. The first book is about the twin brother of the hero in this book but personally it was this story that intrigued me and I thought the author did a fantastic job of filling in any blanks so I still felt fully connected to all the characters (and this is coming from someone who is really OCD about reading books in order so I promise it’s okay)… but yeah – totally LOVED it and highly recommend it. It was a really sweet read with a very unique twist to it and it had a really wonderful balance of an intriguing storyline, a SWOONY romance, crazy hot sex, but also really great character development, and a nicely paced relationship (no insta-love). Just my kind of read!! 😀

 

ROOM FOR YOU by Beth Ehemann — Top Recommendation!!! (Read my review)

I LOOOOOVED this book and it’s still one of my top recommendations of the moment!!! It was a sweet, swoony, heart-melting, romance, perfectly balanced with just enough angst to keep me on my toes.  The heroine is a single mom with 2 little twin girls, and the hero is a famous hockey player (but she doesn’t know that) and a storm strands him at the Inn she runs with her mom and he has to stay a few days…. ok, and just get this — he calls her little girls his Twinkies!!! OMG *SWOON*

It’s the first of a 2-book series (both books are about the same couple, and both are available) and I read the sequel right after and loved it just as much as the first one!! I highly recommend them both!!! SO. MUCH. SWOOOOOON. !!!! Reading order: #1 ROOM FOR YOU, #2 ROOM FOR MORE.

 

REGRET TRILOGY SALE BUNDLE by AL Jackson – Huge New Sale!!!

UNFIXABLE by Tessa Bailey — $0.99 New Release (Read my Review)

I read this a few days ago and loved it! It was fun, sexy, and light-hearted. Honestly, it felt exactly like “reading” a romantic comedy movie — great banter, a hot hero, a snarky heroine, a little bit of drama thrown in and a happy ending. The heroine was a “sarcastic American girl” fresh off a bad break up who wemt to Ireland where she met a “dark-haired, blue-eyed” famous race car driver “with a bad attitude that rivals her own.”
