It was enjoyable and kept my attention until the end, but I felt like something was missing. I didn't fall in love with it like I did with almost all of her previous stories. The ending was cute, and I'm still going to check out the next book in the series because I loved the secondary characters. 3.5 stars :)<br /><br />As for recommendations for next month, I have a couple of suggestions:<br /><br /><i>Keeping Sweets</i> by Cate Ashwood (published in March 2013) <br /><i>Bolt Hole</i> by Amy Lane (published in March 2013)<br /><br />Lauren <3<br /><br />Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741308262358498240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486751869648447879.post-79425000866848078612013-03-30T18:37:01.890-04:002013-03-30T18:37:01.890-04:00I felt the story was a little disjointed as well. ...I felt the story was a little disjointed as well. I did enjoy the book but I got a little lost along the way. The men were very hot though and I liked them well enough. I love strong cops and fire fighters too so this story was my style. I thought the ending was rather cute so all is well that ends well. I can't wait until next month's book. <br /><br />P.S. That EPBOT link is dangerous.

I really enjoyed the story but felt alot was crammed into a short read, it needed more detail in places. I give it 3 stars. I would like to see some sequels with Fynn's buddies. My suggestion for next months read is Texas Pride by Kindle Alexander.

I'm sure the length of the story had a lot to do with the little character development there was, but everything moved by so fast I also had the feeling I had missed something along the way.<br /><br />It was a cute story, but lacked that certain something that draws me in and allows me to be intimately involved.<br /><br />☆ ☆ ☆<br /><br />I have a couple books on my "to read" list right now that may be good for April.<br /><i>Unearthing Cole</i> by A.M. Arthur<br /><i>A Simple Romance</i> by J.H. Knight<br /><br />Oh, and Rhys Ford's 3rd book in the Cole McGinnis Mystery series comes out in April. *squee*<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486751869648447879.post-69137026930260992202013-03-25T19:21:43.283-04:002013-03-25T19:21:43.283-04:00Possible Spoilers...
I have read previous stories...Possible Spoilers...<br /><br />I have read previous stories from R.J Scott, such as the -In The Shadow of the Wolf series- 1)Shattered Secrets, 2)Broken Memories and 3)Splintered Lies, and also read Oracle. So having read some other books, I had high expectations which were partially met. Finn is a small town cop and Max is a firefighter from the big city. <br />While I do like the pairing and was happy with the ending, I just didn't feel the chemistry or passion with them. The spark was there, but it wasn't developed enough I think.... I know Im being nick picky,there is only so much you can do in limited pages.<br />The villain was also out of no where, just barely mentioned by Finn and then suddenly he as there and got killed quickly.<br />The book and series have a lot of potential and there are clearly sequels with Finn's friends coming soon.<br />It is a nice,short read and I enjoyed it somewhat.<br />I give it a 4 out of 5 stars.<br /><br />Sorry, but no book suggestions I can think of right now. My "to read" list is books from the last few yrs I haven't gotten to yet,lol,but I will read whatever is decided on for the April book. :)<br /><br />Mikhk47enclavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01035326328305980501noreply@blogger.com
