Nobody But You by Jill Shalvis

Nobody But You by Jill Shalvis


5 double fudge brownie stars

Guess what...

Jacob is back!

Everybody in Cedar Ridge was waiting for Jacob to come back. and he finally came back.

After loosing his friend Bertt in a roadside bombing and being injured, Army Special Forces officer Jacob had to come back to Cedar Ridge and fix things with his family especially his twin Hudson. When he rented a cabin beside the lake, the very last thing he had expected was a mysterious, temperamental, green-eyed cutie.

No scratch the cutie..

She was a sexy 'Red' bombshell ready to explode.



when Sophie Maren walked away from her husband (now ex-husband), she refused to take anything with her except for the love of his life "his boat". She wanted to hurt the asshole for cheating on her and for ruining her life. Problem was she didn't have a place where to park "the Lucas" I mean moor.
Or may be she did.

When she dropped the pink vibrator at his feet, Jacob knew that she was the One and he wanted to have her and make her his. "For the durartion"



He wanted her in his life and he would do anything to have her. she can moor at his dock for as much as she wanted. He can even settle for forever and had to make sure that she got that especially the forever part.

Such a great love story with an explosive chemistry.



I was really really waiting for the release of this book and it was worth waiting for. The whole series is a success and I still don't know which story is my favorite. That of Aiden, Hudson or Jacob but the whole series is a piece of love.

Jill Shalvis I love you.

Wait...

Scratch that.

I adore you!

Mr. Blackwell: Part Three by Emilia Winters

Mr. Blackwell: Part Three by Emilia Winters
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This the last part of the series Mr.Blackwell. I didn't like it very much because Noelle was so annoying. She had every right to be pissed off but she exaggerated in her reactions.

She looked to confused though she shouldn't be because Mr.Asshole didn't promise any thing he couldn't do.

I didn't like Tristan either he was a jackass. I was so happy to know that he would fight to win her back but apart from that he was a total jerk.

"I just wanted to tell you that I think you are the most beautiful woman I've ever met. And that I entend to keep you , no matter how dirty I have to play. And Noelle... I won't play fair."Tristan

I was impressed in fact!



The story

After he lost her because of his arranged engagement, Tristan had to win Noelle back. He broke up with Isabelle, arranged a trip to London in his private jet, took her to London Eye then to his castle in Scotland. He charmed her, seduced her and did his best to win her trust and he succeeded. But when his family secrets were sold to the media, Tristan accused her of the scandal and broke up with her.

Blah blah blah..she wasn't the one who sold the story out but the Asshole didn't call to apologize for the way he treated her.

Blah blah blah... he came with a sweet story and like always the doormat will forgive him and take him to her bedroom.

Guess what!



And....

They lived happily ever after.

I read some books of Emilia Winters and I adore her style, her heros and the stories are always great but Tristan left me with a feeling of anger. He really needs some spanking :)

It was a lovely story and I did enjoy it.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is part 2 of the series Mr. Blackwell.

Tristan and Noelle met at a night club and a ferocious chemistry started between them consuming them and making them unable to get enough of each other.

Yes, there was

SEX

X

XES

X

S

And more SEX

Ohhhhhhh!



Most of the scenes were in the bedroom or the bathroom ;)

Thanks God she got on the pill :D otherwise we would have a shortage of condoms!

I did love this part (not because of the SEX) but because Noelle didn't act like a sex slave and refused to sign a NDA and because she put her pride first in many occasions.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

SPOILERS

This is book one in the series Mr Asshole. Oh sorry! Mr.Blackwell.

Yeah, he was a jackass and he deserved that!

And that's what I want to do with Tristan because of the way he treated Noelle!



Back to the story

After a year of abstinence, Noelle decided to head to Valoir a night club where the rich gather, and have a one night stand with a gorgeous millionaire.

When she left with Tristan, the most handsome guy she had ever met, she thought that she would have the best night of her life.

Not today sweetheart

After 5 minutes of amazing wall sex, Tristan "the jerk" thanked her and kicked her out of the house.

"You scared me" He told her

Seriously Tristan!!!

"Thank you... You should go"

It doesn't look like scarce to me

Anyway..

On Monday, they found that they had to work together but it looked like our ruthless playboy fell head over heels with Noelle (insta love) and she seemed to be happy with that. She forgave him...

And just like that, Tristan and Noelle started their sex marathon and their mission to free the world from condoms ;)



The epilogue...

Good neeeeeeeeeeeews!

Isabelle is coming into town. You don't know her?! She is Tristan's fiancée

Of course I will read the whole series. I want to see where this is going.

Beyond Broken by Emilia Winters

Beyond Broken by Emilia Winters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I don't usually read about bad boys unless I 'm rebellious. I like my heros classy with suits and interesting jobs. Not precisely with a huge bank account and private jets but the kind of guys that give you no choice but to love them even when they are rude and ruthless. But this Caleb is just indescribable.

My Caleb



When her car broke down on the road, Madie had to find a way to get back home. She lost her wallet and her phone was dead and she didn't even know where she was. She had to find a towing company and a phone to call her brother Thomas. When she stepped on the Montgomery Restoration & Repair Territory she didn't think that she would see Caleb, her crush from high school but This Caleb was not her Caleb. This man was ruthless, rude and frightening.

My Maddie



Caleb was so messed up. He had lived a hell of a life full of abuse, hate and betrayal and besides all that hell he lost his beloved uncle.

But one day the same life that put him in hell brought him Maddie as a recompense to all he had to go through.

NO!!! Caleb was not ready for that innocent face with freckles. what Madie is bringing with her scared him to death. HE HAD TO FIGHT HER fiercely. He had to fight his feelings for her.

"What I feel for you scares me".

Yeah, Caleb was the bad boy who swears every two seconds. He was full of shit and had a horrible past but Maddie saw in his eyes things he couldn't see himself. She saw a caring and a protective man and she had no options but to fight for him against him and win his heart because he was every thing she wanted from life.

That was an amazing book. My first to Emilia Winters but definitely not the last.

Cop On Her Doorstep by Karen/K.L. Docter

Cop On Her Doorstep by Karen/K.L. Docter


That was a very warm and light-hearted story.



Jake Stafani is an Italian cop.

My Jake



He is everything a woman needs. Caring, supportive and very protective of those he loves. He is a family man. He bought a big house and dreamt to fill it with beautiful bambinos. When he moved to his new house he didn't expect to meet the little charming eight-year-old Eric and his gorgeous widowed mother Carrie nor he expected they will steal his heart and charm him.

"you would be the death of me" He told her once.

Carrie is a successful gorgeous brunette.

My Carrie



She lost her husband six years ago in a very bad incident during a bank rubery where he was shot by a cop. Yes, a Cop.

This means that the last thing she would do is fall in love with a cop but Jake was so different. He was everything she needed in her life and she could not throw away the love she saw in his eyes towards her and her son.

"He was heat and passion, hard muscle and bone-deep strength, all wrapped up in mobile lips and a tender touch, oxygen for a starved heart."

But if she wanted her happily ever after she had to fight her own demons ,get over Tomas's death and accept Jake for the man he is not the uniform he wears.

If you want to curl on your sofa with a cup of hot chocolate then you should add this book to the collection.
It was a very nice read.

Thank you NetGalley for the copy

Wrong by Jana Aston

Wrong by Jana Aston
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 OMG stars



Wrong is the most hilarious book that was written in a deliciously wrong stunning way.

Oh My God!!!



Sophie was a college student in her final year and also a barista at Grind Me. She was good at mixing coffee.

She was good at many things in fact...



Lucas became a regular customer every Tuesday morning at Grind Me coffee shop since the beginning of the constructions at walnut and precisely since he spotted a smiling Sophie from behind the counter.

He was totally hot!!!


You don't know the story. Do you?

Well,

She was a twenty-one desperate virgin dying to get laid . She even had a waxing session (I can't describe the feeling by the way). And He was the thirty something gynecologist who will send her home with a bag of condoms and birth control pills.


Did she know he was a gynecologist??



Of course Not!

She thought he was a lawyer and spent four weeks fantasizing about him but she ended up spreading her legs to him for examination purposes.

You don't know the feeling?!



Ughhh!!! That's it.

Not romantic at All... but yet this was naughty Sophie ;)

You really want me to tell you what happened on the examination table?!

Over my dead body!

Back to Luke and Sophie

There was a wonderful love story between these two characters and although Luke had million reasons to walk away and give Sophie the chance to live her life, he was so selfish to let her go. He was her First and he was sure as hell that he would be the LAST.

The hot love scenes were everywhere, almost on each page of the book some of which are shocking and some are just "Oh My!". Dr Miller loved to leave his trace everywhere like a lion; in the bedroom, on the couch, in the bathroom, in the study, on the kitchen counter and even on the desk of his hospital office.. Did I leave something?! Yeah her bedroom at the campus.

So many reviewers didn't approve the age difference. She, twenty one and He, thirty something. But this is the part where I will remind you how love can be a son of a bitch. Just read the epilogue guys, they are still having a kind of non stop monkey sex life :D

There are things I didn't like about the book like the Chrisian's fifty shades things, the dirty language, how things ended up with Luke's family but since Jana ended the book with that lovely epilogue it got a deserved 5 stars rating.

Would I recommand this book?

Yeah, absolutely.

Would I re-read it?

That would be like me rewatching "The Vow". I almost memorized all the scenes ;).

So yeah that would be nice.

Need You for Mine by Marina Adair

Need You for Mine by Marina Adair
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

"She had him at hello" and "He had her at hello"

Everybody in Main Street knows this except for them.



He is The Five-Alarm Casanova

Adam



A hot sexy firefighter who knows how to kiss, how to sweet-talk and how to get laid with just a smile.

But....

"He isn't looking to be collected"

Or may be he is!!

She is everyone's best friend.

Harper



A local art teacher with the most beautiful smile on earth.

Their story

Harper was in front of Adam since forever. He was so caught up in his hook ups to recognize her but a kiss at her grandma's lingerie shop made him reconsider his choices.

Harper was never intimidated by Adam even when he caught her half naked at her grandmother shop that night. She was smart and sassy and all she was looking for was a man who can love her and Not see her as a friend. NOT Adam by the way Not in this Life Not ever....

She never thought that He could be the one.

He was Mr. JULY for God's sake hotter than the month itselp and she was ordinary Harper.

She doesn't do sexy and he doesn't do relationships.

Hadam end up in a fake relationship; he needed her to get promoted to lieutenant and she needed him to convince Lulu Allure that her grandmother's lingerie shop is worth a new contract.
They started helping each other and ended up falling for each other.
This was a sweet love story full of chemistry.

Fifty Shades of Grey from my Point Of View!!

Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James


I was not sure whether I should read this book or not because there was so much debate about it. So, I decided to watch the movie instead. Producers have that touch of transforming something scary into a sexy and beautiful thing.




I'm not into the spanking and the commander-submissive kind of relationships and I don't see why people should hurt each other to pleasure themselves.



When I was in high school, I had to write an article to the school magazine about "Self-defeating personality disorder" or Masochism. I made a lot of researches and came up with a good article but since then I've never discussed the topic with anybody because it affected me and scared me to the death.

The masochistic/sadistic behaviour is so weird and I couldn't understand why people should subject themeselves and others to pain so as to reach their Euphoria.



I saw the movie and I could understand through Christian that those people have their reasons for such weirdness and strange behaviour.

And then,

I decided to listen to the audiobook version. I wanted to loose myself to the soft voice of Becca and try to understand Christian, though he was a work of fiction and E l James was good at creating wonderful fiction guys.

I wanted badly to see through those people to get to know them.

Yes, they scare me to death

Because back in high school, The English teacher who was responsible for the magazine told me that we all have that sadist/masochist behaviour hidden in some part of our subconscious.

I never had the chance to see if what my teacher said back then was true and I have no intentions to do it now but I'm sure as hell that it is not true.

I'm NOT going to write a review because there are more than 72000 reviews on Goodreads. I'm just sharing some my teenage worries about a topic that was and is still a taboo in my country.

Taken Home by Ruth Cardello

Taken Home by Ruth Cardello
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4,5 Stars

Taken Home is book three in the series Lone Star Burn.

I didn't read the first two books but they look really worth reading especillay the story of Charles

So I'll give them a try very soon :)

Back to our Chelle ;)

In her attempt to finally get laid and get rid of her virginity, twenty five year old Chelle, borrowed a candom from her best friend David and headed toward Mason at the wedding ceremony where they were all invited to celebrate the union of their friends Sarah and Tony.

Mason, the senator, was in real trouble after sleeping with Trish, another senator's daughter. He had to convince Chelle to be his fake fiancée and save him from Trish's claws and from her father Bill who did never miss the opportunity to oppose any of Mason's bills.

Well

 they didn't have the same ideas in mind and though Mason was a womanizer who does not even bother to know the name of the chick he's sleeping with, Chelle, for him was the forbidden fruit and he had to stay away from her even when she agreed to be his fiancée and managed to save him from Trish.

HE HAD TO STAY AWAY FROM HER or HIS BEST FRIEND CHARLES WOULD KILL HIM.

Well....

Not after she grabbed him from his tie and kissed him... and not after he finally tasted her.

"He didn't just want her. He needed her, as desperately as a person gasps a breath after being denied air."

I loved how this book valued family and togetherness and I loved how people stood beside each other no matter what happened. there is so much love and warmth in this book and you can't but love all the characters.

Chelle was a unique heroine. though she was a country girl she wasn't intimidated by the glamour of the city or the embarrassing interventions of the press. She knew how to defend herself and how to show her love.

Mason was a successful senator, handsome, charismatic and an A+ womanizer. From the outside he was every girl's dream but from the inside he was all fucked up and lonely with a haunting past.

They had many issues to fight but I loved their journey towards happiness.

Thank you Ruth Cardello for the amazing book.
Thank you NetGalley for the provided copy.

( The fire, the poisoned omelette, Ivy's interruptions...)

There were million reasons why they couldn't make it to the berdoom but THAT was worth waiting for.

Back to the story...

Natalie had a crush on Luke since seventh grade or may be since she was born...Did she mention the womb?! Yeah that was it...She had a crush on him since forever.
When Nat and Luke finally got the chance to meet and know each other, they had to fight their chemistry for ethical purposes but AGAIN!!!! They couldn't stop kissing.

It's a fantastic friends to lovers story written in a very beautiful way.

Every Time He Leaves by Anna Karington

Every Time He Leaves by Anna Karington
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The book starts with a charity event organized by Lana and held by her mother.

(The Bitch)

It's at the charity that we are going to meet Kelsey Lana's selfish, gold-digger divorced sister. She is the elder and the most carless and hateful character I have ever encountered.


(God how I hated her)

And Janet, the younger sister and her husband Kirk.

(The Asshole)

During the event a handsome guy arrives. It was nobody but Jarek "the jerk".

(I totaly forgive him by the way)

He left Lana at her lowest moments one day after her Dad passed away and of course after getting to her pants and spending a night of passion and heat with her...

Jarek decided to just leave without even saying goodbye. He is back after a whole decade with a tailored suit and a big bank account.


And you know what??!

He was willing to start where they left. I don't get the whole sex revenge thing.

COME ON Lana!!!!



You should have stopped him halfway and made him suffer blue balls decease and frustration because he left you without saying a word!!!

Well, she didn't and here you know that love is a son of a bitch!

So many things happened and so many hidden secrets revealed.

It was a lovely story full of passion and though the heroine's life was successful it was messed up.

Would I recommend this book?

Yes, I would.

Now what!!!



Should I start counting the torturing days before the release of book 2. This waiting game will definitely drive me insane.

Oh My God!!



I've never cried "I mean really really cried" while reading a book.

It was just unfair how these guys treated Holly.

What and where to start with?!

I would start with the pchyso bitch mother who was so mean and selfish to think better with her brain. She just left me speechless.
Or may be her horrible father. Good God! That poor girl had so much to suffer.

I can't get over the idea that Jake just left like a coward without even explaining...

After that endless love, lust and caring he just shut off his phone and what!!! wiped her from his life like this. I just can't believe he would be such a horrible dick.

The story started so right and so warm with Holly getting over her cheating fiancé or ex-fiancé. When she met Jake everything felt different. He worshipped her body , cared about her and gave her all the love of his heart.



There was so mush heat between these two characters. They stood by each other and supported one another in a so beautiful way.

I have so many question like a million to ask Jake but it looks like I will have to wait for the second book to have the answers I hopefully need to read.

Thank you Isabella White for such an amazing book but please bring us the second book. It's an emergency :)

Thank you NetGalley for the provided copy.

That was a fablous story!!!!

Amazing characters...

A wonderful storyline.

Fake lovers, Fake fiancés, friends with benefits ... This book was a real fun

I really fell in love with it.

This is the kind of story that makes you laugh, cry, have faith in love and surely believe in happily ever after.

I adored both Gioia a.k.a the hurricane and Christian a.k.a the cover boy. They were amazing. I was frustrated with the ending but since book 2 is coming soon I just can't wait to read it.

I got a copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you NetGalley and thank you Elisa Gioia for such an amazing work.

May be I should start learning Italian :) I would die waiting for the release of the second book then the translation.
