Ugly Love Review

Tuesday, August 19, 2014






I'm not really sure where to start. I sat down the other night, as I was finally able to start Ugly Love and I read in in one sitting. Finishing  this about ohh 4 am when I had work the next day. I should have cared that I was going to be exhausted for work, but all I can think about is that I needed to know how Miles and Tate's story played out. 


Tate Moved to San Francisco to move in with her brother temporally while she saved up enough money. She was a RN and was trying to further her degree in nursing. The first night she moved in she stumbled upon a very drunk male sprawled out in front of the door that lead to her new home. Tate called Corbin her brother to figure out what to do. It ended up being Corbin's friend Miles. Miles the man that was about to take her on an emotional, but hot ride. That first hot kiss lead to many  nights of hot sex that neither of them are unable to  stop even If they wanted to.  With Miles constant struggle to  fully deal with his past, it puts a damper on ever having any real relationships with Tate.






















I don't like putting to much information because I want people to read the story for themselves.  Ugly Love was such a great story so different from many other books I have read lately. Although every book is great in their own unique way. That's the beauty of books and all the different types of stories/Genres out there. If you feel like reading something it's there for you pleasure. I personally love romance. I feel that there is so much ugly in this world that I want to read about love and passion. The best thing about Colleen  Hoover's book Ugly Love is that it keeps you going wanting to read more. Sometimes there are those stories that drag on to try and build suspense to the big ending and you are ripping out your hair along the way. Thank god all my hair is still attached to my head lol.  Ugly Love never got boring nor did it make me want to rip out my hair, but I think that’s because I couldn't bear to put it down and return to it the next day. I was to bewitched by the story and could not be so patient as to wait to read it. So I read it all the way through in one night. I honestly believe that Colleen hoover was born to write. As some of you Colleen fans out there may have noticed the similarities in each story they are all very different! They say that reading is like meditating. I honestly feel the truth in that statement. I always feel so refreshed and happy after having read one of Colleen's books.  Would I recommend this book?? I already have and will continue to do so. I would give her more than just five stars if Goodreads would allow. So Yes for reviewing purposes I have given Ugly Love 5 stars. As for me I would give her 7 just to be a rebel and Colleen Deserves it.  I look forward to more books coming from that Literary wizard-dess of words.







Love,

Annie.



Wicked Innocence By: Missy Johnson

Friday, August 15, 2014

Wicked Innocence Review

 
Could a relationship that started out based on a lie work? Can her age keep him away from her? Miach was 17 and Saxton was 25
WARNING: Spoilers Inside!!


So this morning during my cup of steaming hot Joe I finished Wicked Innocence by Missy Johnson.   What started out slow finished out very nicely. Miach with an H.  Had been much older than her biological age of 17. She had been through hell with her mother's addictions and her brother's tragic death. Through her trials her survier instincts kicked in and she took control of what could have been a worse situation! Moving to LA with her new found independence and false ID, she started a new life for herself. Then one day she was auditioning for a band.  Not expecting to meet a man that would make her feel things she never knew existed. Saxton White former rock star. While Saxton thinks she is 21 he starts to slowly fall for Miach.








I am a sucker for hot stories! Although I was not happy about the age  and the fact that he was ok with it. I mean she was a minor for crying out loud! But all in all you can't really help it once you get into the book. What girl doesn't dream of one day meeting a sexy rock star, then falling flat on her face in love with him? Even More so when the feeling is mutual!




 This wasn't as hot of a read as my typical reads, BUT it was a cute story. I gave this book 3 stars.  I would recommend this story to the younger adults for sure.


Love,

Annie.

Ladies one word,one name for tonight...Cade. WOW

Saturday, August 9, 2014

Sorry It took soo long I Blame-



Sadly I have been working on two books this past week trying to push my way through like the little engine that could.  I was so excited to finish so that I could review them... That thought was very short lived!! Although I posted my not so great reviews on Goodreads, it was not blog worthy. So if you wanted to see my reviews on what i  said i would post in my "Whats to come blog" please fallow me on Goodreads or Booklikes. 

But tonight I was woken out of my nightmare of bad reads with something filled with just the right amount of adventure, steamy alpha male scenes, and excitement! FINALLY!!! For all you lovely readers that are like me with books knows what it is like. Have you ever just kept getting bad eggs then finally... Finlay get a good book then you sit there for 24 hours doing nothing but reading it to make up for lost time. Well that is me the stinky girl with the rats nest some may call hair, glasses, coffee cups, blankets, and a little don't EVEN mess with me while reading vibe.. Just a little one LOL



Well If you haven't had the pleasure yet let me introduce you to Cade... Ever bit dangerously alluring, Alpha male. YUM! 




If you haven't met Cade already let me introduce you to him. Although he is taken by Bayleigh. Lucky bitch. She is not your typical doey eyed helpless character either. I love her. She is strong independent and has everything going for her until fate throws her a mighty fine new neighbor. How the hell did she get so lucky lol.  Cade is working a case and it's his last case if he has any control over it. He is a lethal weapon with legs/ DEA agent. He was on a mission until a very sexy neighbor comes over in her barley pj's yelling at him for being so loud at the ass crack of dawn, as he is moving in. He was screwed from the moment he laid eyes on her. Cade wasn't looking for anything other than casual sex, but fate had other plans for him and Bayleigh. I really don't want to ruin anything more than what I have. But ladies this book has a great alpha male, and hot sex scenes. An well lets face it, we all look forward to the build up and then BOOM yes... AHHH greatness happens. I find it funny when they are describing what the female character is feeling. (My version lol "She can't speak left with nothing but what she is feeling for him at that very moment. Her breathing becomes gasps as he (insert your hot scenes here) and then she licks her lips before bringing him into....) You get the point lol you find yourself sitting there suddenly noticing your breathing increasing and licking your lips on Q. Liliana Hart really knows how to capture her readers that's for sure. I also read Dane a while back. She never disappoints.  For my full review see me on Goodreads ;)




Love,

Annie.

Scorched the last book in the Series of Surrender by Melody Anne.

Thursday, July 31, 2014



Short and Sweet

 I am going to briefly go over the book in this review today.  The first book was like a drug I was addicted after the first hit lol.  Then I read the rest… Now..now I know what you are thinking and it’s not bad. Like I said before I am not here to bash anyone. They were all good and very well written. Although I fell in love with all the couples, I felt they needed their story separate from the rest.  Every time I started getting into Ari and Rafe it would change to Shane and Lia or Rachel and Adrian.  They were all so great I felt they needed to be their own book. I felt a little cheated I wanted more from each of them. But I did love how Melody tied it all together in the end. I thought it was adorable how she ended it. I won’t tell you because the end of a story should never be ruined for the next person.


This is going to be a short review tonight. I just wanted to post something about the last book I read. Now I don’t know how to say this without it coming out wrong or being misconstrued as a bad review, so I am going to leave it as is. The question of the hour would I recommended it? Yes. How I feel may not be how you might once you have read this series. I give this book about a 3.5 only because I think that the characters were wonderful, but as I said before they deserved their own story a chance to flourish into something more. I do look forward to reading more of Melody's books. I did enjoy her writing and think she is good at what she does!




Love,

Annie.

What's to come...

Sunday, July 27, 2014


Something to Look Forward to.



So as I mentioned before in my last post, I will be turning this into my permanent book review blog. I will be giving a few previews as to the books I will be reviewing. Recently I had two books gifted to me by the authors and I will be reviewing either one or both depending on the out come. I don't really like giving bad reviews so if I don't like something I just won't review it. I have the up most respect for authors and their writing. I understand what they go through to write and put their work out there. I will in no way be putting their hard work down. Just because it may not be my cup of tea doesn't mean I want to bash people on my blog. As My mom use to tell me if you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all. LOL. Good so you get it now. Also if you don't see your book on here and you know I have already read them, it's only because I just started doing this. I will also be reviewing on previous books I have already read. I have so many favorites reads. I will be listing my favorite authors and must reads as well. Please if you have anything bad to say about authors I am listing I want to ask you now to please DO NOT do so on my blog!! NO Debbie downers!! 


 













                                       


These two were recently so kindly gifted to me. Although right now I am just finishing up the Series Surrender by Melody Anne. I however have a list of books to read through, but because theses were gifted I will be giving them priority.=)

My Review for Surrender By Melody Anne.

Friday, July 25, 2014



The Start of my Book Reviews

Some books are not meant for everyone and each person is entitled to their own opinion. I both hate and love the waiting period for the next book to come out. If you are anything like me, I keep a list of the books I am waiting for and an alarm to remind me on my phone, as well as a list at my desk. Book Junkie you say… maybe! What can I say I am a sucker for a good read. The more frustrated I get the more eager I am to finish it. It becomes like an obsession I can’t think of anything else I turn into a reading zombie.  I can’t get through my day without going over the book and the thousands of possibilities of what is going to happen next. Sometimes I just want to reach in and slap the stubborn characters and hurry them along lol.

This is what I look like while I am obsessing over a book. Reading Zombie 
 Everyone knows once I have become entranced in yet another great read when I am surrounded by coffee cups, blankets, pillow,s and a don’t you even dare interrupt me vibe I throw out into the universe lol. And if a book is bad I still have to finish it. I think that is part of the reason I was inspired to start writing myself. I figure if people can put this stuff out there than my work stands a chance. Lol we’ll see though. Until that day comes I will review for all my favorites. I don’t really like to give bad reviews, but I do however review the ones that really like. So that is what brings me here today. Melody Anne. I finished a few of her books recently, but I am going to review the first one of the series Surrender.





 Yet another great Male character. (Standing Ovation) to Melody Anne for Executing another form of Male perfection. I now have a new Book boyfriend! Man… Such a whore I know lol. This amazing piece of male book meat is both strong, Arrogant, sexy as fuck, Domineering, and seducing. Rafe Palazzo is another sexy business mogul who is set out to seek his revenge on all women for the wrong doing of his ex-wife. A long the way and many mistresses later there was Ari Harlow. How I like to think of her is as his saving grace. She was everything he thought that never existed and she was out to prove him wrong. This book has its ups and downs and take you on yet another emotional roller coaster ride and is completely worth it!!! While Ari cares for her sick mother she was forced to give up on school for the time being and work in order to take care of her mom. She applied for what seemed to be a great job opportunity and was soon confronted with a wolf in a suite disguised as a business man.  He soon offers her something that she can’t seem to turn down. Ari is a fire cracker. She has so much spirit in her and I can kind of see myself in her at some points. Maybe that’s why I am so drawn to this book. One thing I have to admit unless you were able to have the instant gratification of being able to download the next book, I see where your frustration lies. Fortunately for me I just discovered these gems recently and lucky for me again the rest of the books were just a click away.

The first book is a bit of a struggle. Rafe and Ari are fighting at what we all know is eventually going to happen. But it is the journey Melody takes us on to get us there. Every great love has its story. Melody, I think takes little pleasures in knowing we will chucking a pillow across the room out of pure frustration, of being left hanging and wondering at the end of each book. While she sits there like Mr. Burns from the Simpson's with an evil smug grin on her face, HA got them again (Muah ha ha ha) my version of her evil laugh.



 Well Melody you win. I was quite easily lured into your romantically addicting trap! Congratulations!  I surrendered to Surrender and I am now addicted. I am currently reading Scorched but want to make sure that I review each book as they all deserve equal recognition! As every book is not for everyone, this book was defiantly written for me. I have given this book 5 stars. Very well written!



Stay tuned for more reviews to come. Thank you to my followers and those who share the same O.C.R.D. Obsessive Compulsive Reading Disorder as I do=)


Love,

Annie.

To My fellow Indie Book Lovers

This post does not apply to everyone!!



 So I would like start off and say this is only because I need an outlet. I need to express how Disappointed and Disgusted I am with some of my fellow readers today. For those of you who love to read and love your Indie Authors the Way I do, I need to air a few things. If you take the time and listen I want to thank you. Also if you can encourage people to be kind to writers/Authors!! 
 
This afternoon I logged on to my Facebook and was faced with a great Indie Author who has been Threatened and bashed.  This is what was left in the Author's inbox:
 

( I deleted names. Don't need a name to make an example)


I don't know who the hell you think you are to send something like that to an Author! Do you have any idea what goes into writing a book??  How much of themselves they pour into creating something beautiful for us to read!! Do you know how much of their lives are sacrificed and neglected so that they can write? To people like the one in this email, do you comprehend what it takes to run a business? Do you understand that unless you put yourself out there and ADVERTISE your product or business you will get NO BUSINESS!
 
Writing a book is like any other person who owns their own business. You are self employed, you do your own MARKETING AND ADVERTISING!! So if She doesn't talk about her Other books how will the word get out there?? Do you think she can just excuse my mouth, but SHIT OUT BOOKS BY THE DOZEN and they will magically sale with no further efforts?
 
 
Maybe you didn't take into consideration when you wrote such an ignorant email that She was self employed and not a machine! Writing as you may know is an art. Just like anything else in the art world it takes time to perfect. It is not something you can rush through or spit out on demand. So please the next time you feel like being selfish and disrespectful think about what you are doing and saying before hand. Just like your mom should have told you: If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all!
 
 
 
Love a very upset,
 
Annie.
 

Work Out Check In =)

Monday, March 31, 2014




Well today I realized how true my words were before. When we try and keep a schedule things get in the way, we get discouraged, and or forgetful. So I am checking in with my work out status. I have continued my working out and still going hard. Some days will always be harder than others, but that doesn't mean we give up. We constantly need encouragement and reassurance that you are on the right path.  I am not trying to do some unsustainable  crazy diet. I am trying to live a healthier life style and loose some weight along the way. I realize how much longer that will take me. It may take me the rest of this year and part of next year to reach my goal. I don't care because I know at the end I can look back at how dedicated I was and how hard I worked to achieve something that I really wanted.

So far I have lost a total of 11 lbs since I started. I have been alternating T25 cardio video, lifting, squatting, running and walking. I try to stay active and be cautious of what I eat and when I eat it. On the weekends I try to keep active as well. I have a 6 year old and I also have to make sure she is getting out as well. So there is nothing like getting out and hiking around the hills with the family. A healthy outing with the family is great for everyone involved.

GETTING DISCOURAGED is perfectly normal. Feel it and then forget about it!! Through away those negative thoughts. Realize that you are just going through the motions. Tell yourself that these feeling are all completely normal. Anyone who works out and is trying to loose weight will also feel the same. But  if you really want it and want to feel great about yourself again, KEEP GOING!!! Find ways to continuously inspire yourself. For me I fallow a number of sites that help encourage me and keep me motivated. Set small realistic goals for yourself. Make a list of goals and check them off as you reach each one! I can't wait to share some progress photos with everyone once I hit my first big goal! If anyone needs some encouragement or advice I am always here=)


KEEP GOING YOUR WORTH IT!!
 
love,
 
Annie.

Work out Check-In

Sunday, March 9, 2014

Checking In


So tonight I am just reporting what I did today. Today I finally broke down and tried something new. My Fiance has been bugging me to try his T25 he swore that I would love it. Well... I think he secretly hates me. I tried it and it kicked my butt in only 25 minutes! There was no need to leave my house to work out today just pure hardcore cardio right in my living room. I don't think I have ever sweat so much in my life!! Even though I did that cardio I still did my planks and push ups. Everything else I needed to do was in the T25 video. I am still going to go to the gym , but I will be alternating between the two now.

 
There are so many different work outs you can do. If you can't afford it that's fine! The Internet is you friend. There are so many free videos you can work out to online and or do at home!
 
Tonight for dinner I used my George Foreman Grill. I grilled up some chicken 98% fat free Foster farms chicken and pan fried some vegetables. No oil I used Spam it is calorie free and fat free and has no sodium. To season the meat and good I used Mrs. Dash No salt, no calorie, and fat free seasoning. Simple fast healthy foods. Also the key thing is to eat dinner by 6pm. It gives your body plenty of time to digest before you go to bed.
 
 
Remember loosing weight and getting into shape is a process it takes time! It isn't going to happen over night. Well I am pooped from today so TTFN that is all I have for today. If you have any questions please feel free to email me.

This is not me YET!
 
 
Love,
 
Annie. 
 

The Journey through exercising and weight loss!

Saturday, March 8, 2014


 
 
 
So sorry that I haven't written in a few days between school and running around I haven't had much time. I believe that goes with what I said before. As much as we all strive to keep routine things change from day to day! Set goals for your day and start with the most important thing first and work from there.
 
So I am going to try and keep this short tonight, but I am going to jump right into it. So I am coming up on the end of my 3rd week of working out. You can't tell much a difference to much other than a little weight loss, but for me I always loose it first in my face. I don't know if everyone else is like this, but it is different for every person. So I work out now 5 days a week and take two days off. Now It may just be me but a word of advise. Never take two days off in a row! You are more likely to get lazy. I switch what days I have off. If I work my ass off at the gym and totally kill it then the next day I know I am going to need off. Not to say that I don't hit the gym hard every time, but some days I work out harder than the previous day.
 
Right now I am concentrating on my cardio. I start out 15 min on the treadmill and do 25 on the StairMaster. Now I know I told you to only start out with 30 min and I still think you should. I just bumped up to more time recently. I also added in squats, planks, push ups, lunges, and leg press. I am finding out that I doing squats with weights help more. If you don't have weight to use that's fine you can improvise with household items or do without. The fact you are doing them is going to help you out! So this is what my routine at the gym has become every other day I alternate the days of the week vary:
Day 1
Cardio-StairMaster,and treadmill total 40 min
 
Squats- with 15lb weights (5 sets of 10)
 
Jumping jacks- 2 sets of 40
 
Lunges- with 15lb weights
 
push ups- 60 3 sets of 20 if your just starting out I would say doing sets of 10 rest and repeat as many as you can do.
 
Always stretch! I stretch after each exercise I do! You are more likely to injure yourself if you don't. Hold each stretch for 30 seconds!
 
Day 2
Cardio ( same as above)
 
I use 10lbs weights to do my arms. Now for my arms I do a number of things. I punch with weights sets of 10 then switch from right to left.
 
Free weight shoulder presses 4 sets of 10 right and left
 
Jumping jacks 2 sets of 40(everyday)
 
push ups 3 sets of 20(everyday)
 
Planks hold for 30 second rest and repeat 3 times (everyday)
 
I do all my planks and push ups at home because I use the gym at my apartments! Don't want to risk getting on that floor. It's just me I just can't LOL
 
Day 3
 
Depending on how hard I pushed it the previous day I will rest.
 
 
 
Please remember working out is a process. DO NOT get discouraged if you don't see imitate results don't give up it takes time. I am not taking any supplements and not doing any insane diets. Trust me when I say I have tried every insane diet and pill out there and sure at first it works then all the weight comes back just as fast. Just make wiser choices. key thing and I know its hard but stay away from fried foods. I know I know there so delicious, but it will hurt you and your progress. Allow yourself a cheat day. My cheat days I try to keep it still not so bad. Eat more salads but be cautious of the salad dressing they are tricky that is the most unhealthy part of a salad. Some dressings can be up to 40 grams of fats and 300 calories. I use Italian dressing low cal low fat. Eat more fruits and vegetables and tons and tons of water!!! WATER!
 
Now I haven't lost anymore more weight but I am gaining muscle and for the muscle you gain that's more calories burned and that eventually turns into fat loss!
Another key thing is to stay moving through out your day. Not saying walk around in circles all day but if you find you have been sitting for to long get up stretch and walk around a little. Go check the mail take your dog for a walk or take your kid out to the park.  Well I think that is all I have to share tonight I wish who ever is reading this luck in their journey. I will continue to share mine with you and I hope to inspire someone to start their own. It's a about living healthier longer and better. Being the best person you can be!
 
 
Love,
 
Annie.
 
P.S.
I am still figuring things out for myself such as my days I am working out and if I want to hit my none machine work outs before or after I do cardio. That is something you are going to have to figure out what works best for you! You owe it to yourself to be the best person you can be! If not for anyone else for yourself!!! Keep up the great work=)

Exercise...What is it good for?

Wednesday, March 5, 2014

Do you remember that lecture your mom use to give you " If your friends were going to jump off a bridge would you?"  or the sane "What's good for the goose is good for the gander."
 
 
Well Have you recently started to workout but it didn't quite work-out?  The problem now a days is people are setting them selves up with unrealistic goals. Loose 5lbs a week and  I'll be thin by summer time. Well all my friends are trying this new supplement so it's sure to work for me. What's good for the goose or your friend may not always work for you. Every "body" is different. Just like if you were to go to a personal trainer and they teach you a number of things to help you get started. You can't always turn around and give someone else the same advice. Take information you receive from others with a grain of salt. Everyone has different needs. And, I know that counting calories is a pain in the ass, but that is what "worked" for me in the past. So for me this year I am turning a new leaf if you will. I am going to put forth more effort into my blog, finish my novel and get into the best shape of my life. I want to share my story with you along the way and hope that my story will inspire you to start your own.
 
 
 
 I am 30 years old and I have a 6 year old daughter and a fiancĂ© who is a full time student. He is a Chemistry major so you can imagine how much school work and how time consuming that must be. I am also a student but I only attend part time right now. Our daughter has a strange half day schedule for kindergarten.  My point is that we all have crazy schedules, but how important is it to you to loose weight or simply get into shape and feel great.
 
 " How important is your health?"
 
I have suffered from depression and I refuse to take meds. I found that besides my writing that I love to work on I enjoy EXERCISING it makes me feel great! It will be harder some days than others. I figure out that its all about setting a routine for yourself. Plans change and routines will get interrupted but you have to learn to work around that and not let ourselves get DISCOURAGED OR DISAPPOINTED! Those are my two lest favorite words. I get so discouraged so easily. My problem is that I set unsustainable diet plans and workout schedules for myself. What you do to loose weight and feel great shouldn't be something you can't maintain
 
 
 
You don't need to starve your self at all. That will never work and if you do loose weight it will come right back on and there is your huge disappointment once again! 
 
 So here is my thing I started working out everyday. Now it's not the same time everyday because lets face it as a mom and if you are one or a father you know that's impossible well almost! Our schedule changes and life gets in the way. But its about keeping routine. So everyday I write, workout, and do homework. Not always in that order but I make sure those things on top of my Mom duties I get done. There will always be house work there will always be something to get in your way. Start with something as easy as walking 30 mins a day. If you have your phone or and Ipod set up your Nike fit or download and App I use "Endomondo" on my Android Galaxy3. There are so many apps you can download for free that will help track how far you are walking and save it so you can compare to the next time. Also if you start seeing a difference in the way you are feeling or weight loss then you know hey I walked X amount of miles yesterday today I am going to step it up. I don't always have time without my kid. So I gave her my old mini ipod got her a headset and she has her own little play list of music. Making her a part of exercising makes her happy that it's something she gets to do with mom.  Although we would love to have free time and you can, but for the days you can't that is an option!
 
 
So I started out by walking everyday with my daughter or with my dog for 30 mins.  I think it is best to start out only allowing yourself 30 mins each day. Do that for a week. Then after that I stepped it up by going to the gym. Now you don't always have to go to the gym there are things you can do at home and I will post those tomorrow this is just to get you in the mind set. Some people love to Run I am not one of them! So I started working out on the treadmill every day for 15 mins with no cool down because you want to keep that heart rate up!! Then I would move to the StairMaster for another 15 mins. Remember to drinks water lots of it! Then stop After that 30 mins GO HOME. Then repeat the next day. Now some say give yourself a day of rest, but if your only doing 30 mins a day and not doing a high impact workout you don't need to.  I am now on week two and I am doing 45 min work outs and added weights and squats.

 
As for meals I am not doing anything insane like I said before it should be something you can maintain. 75% of what we eat then working out helps with loosing weight and feeling great. Just do gradual changes. In the morning when I have do either Slim fast or low calorie oat meal and a half a grape fruit.  Breakfast is so important to kick start your day. You should be eating within the first 45 mins after waking up. That is why I choose to do Slim fast some days because I don't always have the time to sit for breakfast while running around trying to get everyone ready. It is for weight loss, but it is also full of vitamins and nutrients!
 
Here is the part everyone wants to know have you lost weight? Or how long did it take. Honestly I lost 5lbs over these two weeks. The first thing I started to notice is my change in mood and how much more productive I felt and how much more energy I had, You shouldn't be loosing over 2 lbs a week its just not healthy and will come back. So I am going to close for now because I don't want to overwhelm you with all of this so until tomorrow!

Someone once told me "Excuses are like rear-ends we all have one some bigger than others!" Stop making excuses and get out there if for no one else do it for you!

Something for those who can't get out of the house!
Well good luck and I hope to hear your success stories as well. I will continue to share mine with your. It's hard for busy moms to find people to relate to or have things in common. Let this be ours. Everyone needs support so lets help each other along the way. Working out is a process a slow process. Slow and steady will win the race!

NothingButtSMUT- Review for Interview With a Master

Saturday, March 1, 2014


 My short and sweet review.
 
 
Man I think that Author Jason Luke did a great job with the Man's POV!
Although I was struggling through the book, the end is what blew me away I didn't see that coming at all! I feel like as many books as I have read I can pretty much predict what is going to happen, but standing ovation because I didn't see that one at all.  I want to explain my reason for struggling. I am use to the roller coaster ride of emotions and all the drama and heart break. This was about a man and all of his conquers as a master. I love the smut I love the falling in love and the journey it takes to get them to the end, but the best part of his book was the end. Now I am not bashing he did a fabulous job executing the man's POV and I am hoping for a great second. I am a sucker for series books! Even though it wasn't my typical romance story it was still the best book written by a male author that I have read so far! Great Job Jason Luke and I have to say yes I would and already have recommend this book to my friends!
