Gave it a 3/5

 

This is my first work to read from this author, it was a surprise and packed a punch. Really liked it.

 

The characters came out in a way that left you wanting to read just a bit more to find out what was going on. I loved that though this was a romantic book, there was no aspect of the characters’ life that was overdone, everything was balanced. It also showed their thoughts separate from one another, (a book where we see both characters thoughts as a separate entity from one another and also when together as opposed to thoughts of one character describing the other) these are my favorite.

 

The reason for my rating even with the praise and all is because more of this book focused on the ones to come. This being a series, would have wanted to see more into the lives of this books characters as well as what was to come…maybe more pages would have sufficed.

 

All in all, loved it and will definitely read the ones after.

...of book reviews

No. 2

ALPHA'S TEMPTATION BY RENEE ROSE.






I gave it 2 stars because it started out well and with promise. The first few pages felt like something worth sinking teeth into.

Then came the explicit scenes that were brash at best for me. First they were inserted without preamble. They started getting to me when the girl started crying and within seconds they were kissing... kissing is not bad but the story had great potential, the characters had full lives that could have been explored better, their emotions were swept under the rag in favor of you know what. The story felt too rushed, like throwing in something in between before the next explicit scene. For me that did not connect well. I like to see character development and weight in which attraction brings romance and the rest.

Also, BDSM is a big no no for me. The swearing involved didn't appeal to me at all.

Overall, I'll just stop here. Was really psyched to read them all at once but no, am afraid this is not for me.

SHORTCAKE

 ...of book reviews.

#No 1


Shortcake by Lucy Watson


I enjoyed this book immensely.

Could tell this work was well thought out by the connections apparent from each chapter, getting the pieces together as as the book goes along, also, this author did her research and/or watched a bunch of movies too before writing.

Hard work is written all over this book and I love it, the story too. No lags in sight.

There is something I would have loved to see more of though, Ben's side of thought and emotions. It felt like Emelia was starring with Ben as her sidekick. We (I) never got to get thoughts from Ben alone like we did with Emelia who we even saw/read with friends and her thoughts were brought out more clearly. We only saw him through Emelia's eyes.

All in all its a good book, wouldn't be surprise if I came back a few years to reread...what's with trying to read half asleep.

Happy reading folks... might be well worth your while.

Oh, yeah! was the next book written in 2020 or... if yes please someone drop the title here. Thanks.

HANNA

  Have I told you about Hanna the series? Here is another one that I could go out of breath gushing about. I have seen season 1 and it...
