Took Some Time To Get There

Revisado: 11-23-24

This book was definitely a slow burn romance. And I do mean S-L-O-W! At times I thought the MFC was going to be this incredibly strong Liken who just didn't know how to control her abilities but the more I listened, the sleepier I became....I may have missed some parts due to falling asleep.

And I was patiently waiting on the dark romance part of this story, however, I never found it.

It wasn't a horrible listen but I'm glad that it only cost me one credit for both books.

A Good Series

Revisado: 01-05-24

For the most part, I loved this series. However, I hated the ending with a vengeance. There was so much I wanted to know...ugh

The narration was good for the most part but the male voices were a little off to where i could not understand what was being said.

It's a dark series...with a hint of spice.

Amazing Dark Romance...BUT

Revisado: 01-04-24

First, I'm glad this was a box set because book 1 was amazingly delicious and dark. After getting into books 2 and 3, I kind of didn't get that same dark energy from Maxim.

In book 1, Maxim was had a dominating personality, he was extremely controlling, and a serious Alpha Butthole. He knew what he wanted, how he wanted, and had no problem taking it. His character was extremely STRONG, in the first installment which was a serious turn on for me.

As the story progressed, I can understand that he was trying to accommodate Frankie, but his character became a little too soft from where he began. Whereas in the beginning where he insisted on bathing her, combing her hair, and picking out her clothes...he abruptly stops and allows her to do those things because he is trying to give her options. Not to mention, in the first book, she reaches her climax with pain but by book 3, they are a little more sensual and Frankie is only participating because she understands that he needs to inflict pain to become satiated.

All and all, this was a good series. I loved the narration and the beginning, although book 3's ending seemed rushed and didn't quite finish Maxim's and Frankie's story.

Love on Fire!!!

The Bookish Girl Reviews

Fire Fly is a thrilling story about Sophia who is an RN that works on a burn unit in a hospital. She comes from a family of firefighters so this would only come natural to her - taking care of those with burns. But, on one evening, Sophia experiences a tragedy of her own. While she is sleeping, her home catches on fire.

She is rescued by Darren, Porter, and Alden but not without becoming a victim to the flames, herself. Darren rushes her out of the house, performs CPR, and immediately becomes infatuated with Sophia.

While in the hospital, she has a conversation with her brother who wants her to come and stay with him and his wife so that they can care for her. Sophia refuses because she doesn't want to be a burden on them because they also have a new baby. So, her brother comes up with an idea and makes arrangements for her to go stay at the fire station where Darren, Porter, and Alden work.

The three guys take care of her and help her down the long road of recovery. But while she is in their care, someone is starting fires in her name. Someone has become obsessed with Sophia.

Although I was praying that Sophia ended up with Darren, this is a why-choose. Sophia forms a relationship with all three guys. And all three guys are on board with sharing her.

There is some spiciness to this book, but not so much that you think you're reading porn. I enjoyed it, the story is well thought out, it kept me guessing on who the firebug was, and I was surprised at the end when he was revealed.

I'm Wild for Wylde

The Bookish Girl Reviews

Wylde meets Celeste and immediately knows that she is the woman that he wants. He even shows her by cornering her in his private elevator while walking her out to her car and smothering her with a seductive kiss.
Celeste likes him...ALOT...but doesn't want to give in to her desires because of the company policy. He's her boss and the relationship is against the rules. But for her, Wylde assures that he will rewrite the policy just to have her in his life.
Wylde's temptation engulfs Celeste and she falls straight into his loving embrace.

This was a great story - just not as spicy as I would have liked. The intimate moments were not as sensual as I would have preferred. Even with that being written - the story was AMAZING!!

Serious slow burn

Revisado: 04-30-22

It took me some time to get into this book. The beginning drags....ALOT. But I love this author so much that I pushed through it.

When it finally picked up and became interesting, it was a good story making me want to listen to book 2.

The narrators voice kind of irritated me, but I got over it. Wish she could have been more entertaining and not make me feel that she was yelling the entire story.
