  • Review: It’s Only Love

    Ok, so this is Ella and Gavin and I’ve been wanting to read their story for sooooo very long. Lo and behold this review copy showed up in my mailbox and I immediately moved my review schedule a bit so I could go ahead and read it.

    These two are so gone for each other from the very beginning and truthfully, their attraction has been simmering for months. The only thing stopping them was the spectre of Gavin’s brother’s death and it’s strangling hold it has on Gavin.

    Gavin FINALLY takes his foot off of the proverbial brake and lets sweet but strong Ella into his heart and oh what a ride is.  One thing I really appreciated with this book was that there wasn’t a whole lot of going back and forth between Ella and Gavin.  She has had feelings for him for what seems like forever and he was the only thing that was holding them back from each other.  Gavin has a moment where he realizes how much better he feels when he is with her as opposed to how he feels when he does not let her in.  Why keep fighting the feelings for someone when you know you feel better with them than you do without them!  Is it a perfect bump in the road free romance? Heck no.  But that’s one of the many things I love about Force’s writing.  Not to mention she always does an incredible job of baiting the hook for the next couple.  I think I say this after every one of her books where she is setting up a new couple.  I go into the book alllll about the current couple and then I’m completely giddy about the couple in the next book. 😉

    If you’re not a fan of sweet and sultry kisses, overflowing attraction, interfering but well-meaning family members and emotional sexy times, then this book is not for you. 😉

    Toss in a little Charley, Max, cousin Grayson, Fred the Moose, and you’ve got another heart-stoppingly romantic addition to the Green Mountain series.

  • Review: And I Love Her by Marie Force

    One thing I can always count on when picking up a Marie Force book is complete and utter enjoyment.

    I’ll admit that Megan was difficult to like in the previous books because of her feelings for Will (Hunter’s brother) and her treatment of Cameron (Will’s GF).  I truly wondered how Ms. Force was going to endear the reader to Megan.  Did she?  Did I like Megan?  I did.  Once Megan understood her feelings about Will, she was able to get out of her own way and realize just how incredible Hunter truly is.

    Hunter…ohhhh Hunter.  Hunter is a bit of a workaholic who dearly loves his family.  He’s the older sibling, the herder and keeper of everyone else.  He isn’t intrusive or annoying, he’s just always there, quietly in some way, making sure everyone else is okay.  Ms. Force gives us more of Hunter and Hannah’s sibling/twin relationship and I truly loved that.

    Once Hunter decided he wanted Megan he stopped at nothing to make her his. Hunter was much more alpha in the bedroom than I anticipated…. I totally did not see that coming!  He even admits to Megan that he likes being the boss…

     

    “I’m the oldest of ten kids.  Bossy is my business.”

    “Are you always like that?”

    “Sometimes  more than others.”

    “Like when?”

    “You really want to know?” he asked.

    “I wouldn’t have asked if I didn’t really want to know.”

    He leaned in close to her. pressing his lips against her ear.  “I’m really bossy in bed.”

    A tremble went trhough her that he felt becasue he was sitting so close to her.

    “Is that right?”

    “Uh-huh.”

    “Bossy how?”

    […]

    “I know what I want, and I know how to get it, but only after you get what you want.”

     

    Uh yeah.  so-hot

     

    Hunter is all quiet, buttoned-up, fancy pants wearing and totally in control.  With the exception of his feelings for Megan, once he lets them loose, he does not back down where she is concerned. Megan needs someone to tell her she matters and give her encouragement to be who she really wants to be.  Can you imagine being told, “I really like you and I just want you to be you?  I’m not going to put up with the walls you’ve put up because I want you… no matter what.” (In a non-stalkery way, of course)

    I adore the family aspect that is prevalent in Ms. Force’s novel’s and the Abbott family is so completely fascinating.  Elmer and Lincoln play matchmaker once again, I just love those guys.

    Who’s next?  Ella and Gavin.  Ms. Force always manages to introduce a new couple and make you out of your mind and ready to read them immediately.  She dangles a new couple in front of you like bait on a hook.  Consider me HOOKED.

    As always there are so many hilarious moments, Ms. Force never fails to make me laugh and inevitably, swoon.
