Jonathan just reeks of steamy goodness. Young, independent, and knows what he wants in a woman. Jonathan saw something in Claire and didn't care of minor details that "society" tells us on what is "right and wrong". There was a past that aimed to try to wreck Jonathan, but he prevailed.
Seriously I could NOT put this book down. I did develop a deep connection with the characters. The steamy scenes never lacked once, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't secretly wondering what sexy rendezvous was coming next! This is not just a man meets woman, full of sexiness (well it is, but...) there is so much more there in overcoming pasts, family uneasiness, society's view of things, and personal independence. Definitely a must read!
**********************************************************************************
City Boy meets Country Girl or vice versa!
I absolutely LOVED this book and cannot wait for more Peaches!!!! I felt so
connected to this book, dunno if it's the plus size connection or what, but I
felt every raw emotion Peaches went through! And a fantabulous Independent woman
Peaches is...gah...just love that in a female lead character! And Dalton...tsk
tsk...loved the guy but I am totally feeling some mixed emotions about him at
the end! It's like I want him and Peaches together, but I cannot figure out his
motive when it comes to Peaches! I want to strangle him one minute and kiss him
from head to toe the next! Hoping book #2 helps me make my decision if I like
him or not!!! I love the southern, small town feel in the book too, a little
close to home there as well! Ok, so now for the steamy scenes...yep they are
SMOKIN'!! Funny, sexy, and full of emotion..."We Are Made of Stardust" ROCKS!!!
******************
The tension, and yes I mean hot, steamy, sexiness kind of tension, is all OVER this book! Reno is a guy who has witnessed too much tragedy in his past and has put up walls around him to keep from letting anyone get in. He struggles with allowing his walls to come down when he knows what he wants is right in front of him! Charli is a "fly by the seat of her pants" kind of gal! Having a military father will probably do that to you though! She is very independent and strives for the best and always goes for what she wants...men included. Her past to has caused her to throw up some walls, but when she does see something she wants, she goes to no end to get it! LOVE an independent girl who goes for what she wants!!!!
Well written and a story that moves along a timeline with ease!! The other characters in this book support the main characters making this story overall....fantabulous!
Guy & Girl fight their pasts for a chance at love!
"Left Drowning" was absolutely beautiful! I loved how Blythe found herself again
after suffering so much trauma in her life. I loved how the Shepherd family was
also able to overcome their demons over time. And the connection between Blythe
and Chris....holy smokes! Those two have a serious deep connection and the
steamy scenes definitely portray that!!! Their connection was so deep that the
tension was almost unbearable!!! I don't know how many times I wanted to scream
at Chris to make things right and stop fighting against everything!!! The
"connections" in the book were awesome. It was like unraveling a mystery right
along with a developing love story. Jessica Park sure has a way of finding that
perfect amount of emotion to give to her characters and keeping the reader
engaged fully (and to the point of reading it all in one sitting!!!). The story
was very believable, moved smoothly, and kept me wanting more!!!
*************
Nolan & Alexa's story is nothing short of steamy goodness! "Giving You
Forever" is a look into the couple's life as they begin their engagement and
overcome life's crazy hurdles. Mind you these two never let much get in the way,
as "make-up time" is HOT! I would have to agree with Nolan's statement in the
book:"You'd think after being together for over a year it would mellow out a little, but no, we still screw like rabbits and it gets better each and every time."
That statement couldn't be any closer to the truth!
All seems well as Nolan & Alexa spend much of the book going through details of their wedding, only to run into a part of Nolan's past that causes a bit of a bump in the road. The second half of this book was like riding a roller coaster. Just when I thought I had things figured out, boy was I wrong! Another hurdle...and another steamy scene ;) I loved how the characters were able to overcome their demons(past and present) and fall even more in love with each other. The book goes to show at the ending that "good things come to those who wait".
The author does a fantabulous job of painting a scene with her descriptions, and I cannot thank an author enough that can do that! Steamy erotic romance for sure!
**********************************************************************************
The Bad Boy finds love!
Wowzers...ummm Teresa broke the mold with this book! She went to places most
either won't or haven't yet! Almost every steamy scene was sizzling HOT! And she
uses descriptions and positions like never before!! Haha...no other way to
describe that! I loved the reconnections in the story. The characters did fight
for each other...and for years they fought to be with each other. I loved the
references to the safe words when they were younger and how their new safe word
ties back to that! The younger safe words are not what you think...you will have
to figure that out when you read the book!! Very descriptive scenes that
portrayed scenes and characters well! If you are looking for something a little
edgy with the steaminess...this is your book!!!**********************************************************************************
The patient Man and the Broken Girl!
OOOhhhh tension central in this book! And I LOVED it!!! Absolutely loved Avery's
independent girl attitude and pretty much the sole reason there was so much
tension! Cam is that bad boy turned good type, love that side of him...fell in
love with his caring side and how he vowed to "wait" rather than completely
giving up. Ummm, the "scenes"...wow...I even felt the little flutters in my
tummy reading them! In the end, I am soooo glad Avery was able to overcome her
demons and open up rather than letting her past over run her. First book I read
by J. Lynn and I have to say...I'm a fan!!!! Great story line, very believable,
the story kept me totally engaged and I finished in a day!!**********************************************************************************
One Night Stand....and counting...
Picked this book up on a whim...and SO glad I did!!! We've all had that time in
our lives where a one night stand was just what we needed!!! Savannah has this
plan in mind...go out, pick up a guy, have a great night, and be done. I loved
seeing Savannah's innocence break down and her independence build up! This girl
knows what she wants and is not afraid to ask! Luke is absolutely steamy in this
book...sweet and loving and hard and direct the next. His love for his family is
a huge barrier to him having independence in his life. He's just looking for
someone to be his saving grace! I loved the characters in this book, all full of
emotion and the storyline is completely believable! Ok now on to the
steaminess...oh my...you won't be disappointed...I promise! I cannot wait to see
where this series goes next!**********************************************************************************
MUST READ SERIES!
Shattered Hearts Series
(1)
Love this series so far! The independence Claire has is strong and emotional.
She handles herself so well with dealing with all her past demons. Of course she
has walls up when it comes to relationships, and she learns to break through
these barriers to have what she wants. Adam also has many past demons that he
fights through and learns his own self worth and independence over time. Ok, now
for the steamy scenes...well, Cassia Leo surely knows how to build that
emotional connection!!!! I couldn't wait for the next "scene" to come up just to
see how the couple would react to one another! Beautifully written, strong
plot(even an unraveling mystery at times), and kept me engaged fully(even to
read it in one sitting...ooops!) Absolutely cannot wait to start in on #2 in the
series "Pieces of You"! Definitely a must read!!!(2)
Well....Cassia Leo has done it again. A captivating story full of emotion,
tension, sexiness, & an unraveling mystery. One thing I really enjoyed with
this book is the fact, I never could figure out which way it was going. Many
books you can start to get an idea of who is going to end up with whom, and so
on. "Pieces of You" takes you on a roller coaster ride, and it's fabulous! Just
when I think I like the male character, the other one sets in and does
something even more fantastic for Claire! The emotional ties in this book are
quite strong, which allows me to feel so attached to the characters!
Descriptions of scenes, characters, and even the steamy scenes are above and
beyond. I love an author that can paint a picture in my head as I read!(3)
*Sigh* Such a good ending to a great series :) So maybe things didn't go how I
wanted them...orginally. Then I learned how much love the two have and I
couldn't be happier!!! I am also excited that the other guy ended up happy as
well. *gush* I love happy endings all around!! Claire appeared to learn so much
about herself in this book and had a "clear light" on what she wanted for her
future. No wishy washy stuff, she knew it, gained that incredible independence
and set forth! This story pulled on the ol' heartstrings for sure! There is even
a quote in the book that I have similarly used in real life and it made it all
that more emotionally connected for me. "We are challenged all the time in our
lives, it's how we overcome our mistakes that justify who we really are." ~
(That is my personal quote...now see if you can find the quote Cassia wrote that
is similar) Loved it...absolutely loved it!
*************
Falling Into You Series
(1)
This book absolutely moved me through so many emotions. I haven't felt this
connected to the main characters in a book in a while! Watching Nell fight her
demons and eventually breaking down walls was heart-wrenching!!! Sometimes I
dislike the sibling stepping into the picture but this story couldn't be more
perfect! I laughed, cried, fanned myself in steamy scenes, & definitely read
it all in one sitting! Jasinda your books never cease to amaze me!
(2)
Yeeesh!!! Jasinda sure does know how to create a 1-sitter read! Couldn't put
this book down! I know they say this is a "stand alone" BUT I highly recommend
reading Falling Into You first!! Falling Into Us gives some insight on some
things that happened in the first book. Sooo....Becca and Jason = HOT! I love
Becca's independence...she is a straight up shooter! At first I got this feeling
she was going to be a goody goody, but all the sudden you see this somewhat
rebellious independent girl flourish! Jason...for fighting so many demons
himself, he is all sorts of Goodness! I loved reading how their relationship
grows and seeing what all life throws at them and their ability to overcome
things together...without giving up! And steaminess...good lord...*fans self*,
let's just put it this way...they are like bunnies!! Fantabulous descriptions of
characters and scenes!
(1)
In finishing the book...I will play "10 things I loved about the book"!
1. An independent heroine!!! I absolutely love to see a woman stand up for what she wants!
2. A sexy "hero"! Bryce definitely portrays that spoiled turned respectable man!! I greatly enjoyed watching him battle his demons and trying to become someone new...independent.
3. The letters to the soldier! Gah, so sweet! I bet there are men overseas in our military that would love to have someone like "Miss"...for hope!
4. The creek...I love those "getaway spots" that people find just for themselves...makes it romantic ;)
5. The snobby girls. Hey what is a story without the witchy girls who get what's coming to them!!! Karma is a ***ch!!
6. Luke & Lexi's friendship...hard to have a male/female friendship for so long and have it not become "weird".
7. The description of characters and scenes!!! Holy smokes, I would say JS Cooper does a fantabulous job of painting that picture in my head of exactly what the characters look like and where they are.
8. The "first time". Nothing better than a romantic first time :)
9. COULD NOT put the book down! I was so drawn in, I flipped pages and was saddened when it ended!!!
10. Cliffhanger! As much as I hate them...I LOVE them!!! Mostly because it means...there is another book for me to read...woohoo!!! (I really don't mean I hate it...just means I get worked up and then boom....next book. At least "Healed" is out and I don't have to wait a year like some series!!!)
Honestly, loved the book. JS Cooper definitely knows what she is doing when it comes to a good, short, sweet romance!!!
(2)
Sweet end to a beautiful story. I flip flopped between the two men in Lexi's
life so much. One minute I liked one, then I more liked the other...frustrating
to have 2 sexy men to fret over!!! Ha! I didn't feel the tension as much in this
book, but that was okay as Healed seemed to be more about building on
relationships rather than chasing them. Crazy turn of events in this book
though! Love how it all came together! For those looking for a quick, spicy
romantic series...this is for you! Superb job JS Cooper!
