| A Fast Sexy Read |
Reviews for all three books pending. Read them in the wrong order, have to go and read again and take notes. :(
1/31/2014-****SPOILER ALERT****
Forbidden Surrender is an erotic romance involving a self-made billionaire and his wealth manager.
I received this ARC from Priscilla West through NetGalley & Blackbird Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
The writing is okay and story is fast moving as well as interesting. The protagonists are relatable however, it seems their developing relationship is based on physical attraction alone and although other contributing factors are stated, quite frankly the author did not develop it enough to really make the emotional connection between the characters real. I made the mistake of reading the last book Beautiful Surrender first however it ended up being a happy mistake because quite frankly the last book really could be a stand alone. There are a couple of grammar issues but what irritates me to no end is when simple details are overlooked(e.g.,He is wearing slippers in one scene then wearing sandals in the next.) The love scenes are steamy as well as the sex scenes, there is cussing and drinking. There is a cliffhanger with Secret Surrender as the next read to this series. The cover is sexy and appropriate to the story.
A fast sexy read.

I received these ARCS from Priscilla West through NetGalley & Blackbird Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
The writing this time seemed a little off, it was almost like someone else took over for a little while. There were a lot of mundane details this time around and it seemed rushed in certain parts the author adding in last minute info just because. The author developed the characters a little more however I am still looking for the intellectual connection. The physical chemistry is nice however it seems that is all they have. Again it ends in a cliffhanger. The sex scenes are steamy, there is cussing, dirty talk, drinking and mention of physical abuse. The cover is o.k.
Secret Surrender is the continuation and Beautiful Surrender is the conclusion of Vincent and Kristen's love affair.

BTW The description of the security detail and their names sound very much like Burt and Ernie from Sesame Street...Kurt and Bernie? ;)

The writing and the characters are much more developed in this last installment and quite frankly with a few more details this book could be a stand alone. I made the mistake of reading this book first however it ended up being a happy mistake. I really tried to keep an open mind and reread this last book again after reading the other two in the series but I have to say again that this book could have done it for me. There are steamy love and sex scenes, physical, emotional, and mental abuse, physical assault, torture, and cussing. The cover is nice. A fast sexy read.
