Insufferable Proximity 2 by Z.Stefani

After surviving a night of hell with the saboteur, Julian and Heaven attempt to get back to a normal life.

Review:

Oh My God.!!!! 

“I´m going to make you suck my cock for

hours after I fuck you for days.” 

“I´m going to be so deep inside you that you won´t 

know where you end, and I begin” 

WHAT?!!!!

After Gavin´s arrest we all thought that would be the end and HEA but no...

"Do something now! You dont understand, 

I need her; You fix her now!" - Julian King

I really thought the first book would be the one but this one exceeded my expectations. It had everything from love, lust, romance, jealousy, drama, misunderstandings, schemes EVERY-FUCKING-THING.!!

New characters come into play too…that are after Heaven´s and Julian´s bones … Oh Yeah.!!!

"The thought of another man looking at you makes me physically 

ill - not to mention homicidal".

Can´t wait to read what else Z has in store for us.

I FUCKING LOVED IT.!!

This story continues where Insufferable Proximity left off and were Julian and Heaven fall in love after years of hating each other. Please read first book before or you´ll understand shit about this one.

Don´t fret my friends, this book ends with a wonderful HEA and no cliffhangers. It ends with everyone so happy about their lives after all they have endured at the hands of Gavin and other people involved to pull them apart since the first book. 

The sex was incredible. Super H-OOOO-TTTT.!! Believe me when I say I might have wet my panties while sitting in my desk at work reading this shit HA.! I loved it.!! I loved how Julian was so concerned of having Heaven safe and it just melted my heart. He went all Alpha male on her. Possessive, aggressive, jealous and all. Since book one I could sense the good chemistry they had and it never wavered. The madder and jealous he got the hotter the sex.

"His mind was consumed with sex and Heaven. Where he was once 

addicted to sex - now he was addicted to Heaven. 

He was man enough to admit it."

He always wants to be the one with the control over everything and I was exasperated at the beginning but what can I say.. I love my Julian. I really enjoyed watching them grow and change throughout these books. Although I didn’t like seeing Heaven so soft. There were times that she should have given her peace of mind to someone and instead she kept getting in trouble after trouble with the King of Kink.!! Those moments made me want to bitch slap her. There´s obviously no cheating in the book. They have a very raw, carnal relationship full of passion in and out of the bedroom (Their office) which blinds Julian most of the time when he is not worrying about his girl.

Their love and trust was so unswerving that not even gossip could tear them apart and I mean GOSSIP. Heaven put herself in situations sometimes unknown by her that whoever caught her in the move would think she was on to cheating and not being framed. 

"If you ever talk about Julian like that again, will 

personally crucify your ass, 

Do you understand?"

Heaven and Julian fight continuously to be together despite the turmoil that comes towards them. They talk a lot, well they actually fight a lot at the beginning. He talks to Heaven about having her safe and how he doesn´t have time to be with her until he is sure the mansion is secure making her feel helpless and needy. Yes.!! Needy :(

Since the first book I loved that even when he has the world at his feet and can have any women he likes, his love is true to Heaven even when he knows her mom is a Madame at a brothel he used to frequent LOL and she stayed true to Julian after knowing he fucked almost half of the staff at the law firm and girls from her moms brothel. They are simply shameless.

Heaven is so strong although she has to lean in Julian´s shoulder for her safety and Julian goes so soft when it comes to Heaven because she is his all. They simply love each other to death.

“You´re married, don’t forget that. There might not be signed 

documentation, yet, but you are legally 

bound to me until the day of my death”. 

Ohh the steamy sex.!!! How could I forget that No spoilers! Sorry :S You´ll have to read those parts.

The ending left me at peace. Everything was where it should be and we even had an extra Epilogue, one year later and 3 years later, so imagine how good it is.

There were a lot of POV´s Julian and Heaven, Ayden, Ian, the Kings´mother, Sybille´s among others. The banter and bickering between the secretaries was hilarious and how they gossiped and oh´d and aw´d with everything that was going on around them specially when they went all detective mode inside the firm Bah.!!

I´m really glad these series ended as a duet instead of a trilogy. I don´t think my heart could take 6 more months to wait for a third installment. Thank God I read this book in December and not in February when it was originally published. 

There were characters I grew fond off even thought they had little to do with the story and makes me wonder… **Spoiler** Are we going to see future books about Royce, Julius, Ian and Gloria, Aries, Ronnie and Juliette as well? 

I don´t have a cast for Heaven and Julian unfortunately because they are so perfect but…

Whoever reads this book will know what I mean with this LOL or at least this is how I picture it.

Insufferable Proximity by Z. Stefani

Someone is hell-bent on sabotaging Julian King.

Julian is a hot-shot lawyer and a natural born womanizer with an unnatural addiction to the opposite sex. He also happens to be the boss's son, which makes him a natural target. With a Rolodex filled with scorned women, a brother who loathes him and the competitors he defeated on his way to the top; there were plenty of people that would love to see him burn. But his money was on the person he despised most, his enemy Heaven Deville. 

Heaven is an aggressive, ambitious, destructively-driven lawyer who HATES Julian King. The two stubborn lawyers were currently locked in a brutal battle for the coveted partnership position at the firm; and Heaven would do ANYTHING to prevent her arch rival from winning.

When Heaven goes too far Julian gives her two options- either he turns her in OR she has to willingly sign herself over to him for the next 30 days.

WARNING- CONTAINS STRONG SEXUAL CONTENT! 

Review:

****THIS REVIEW MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS****

Soooo.. although I saw a couple of similarities from FSG or This man I really enjoyed it... What?!! nooo.... I LOVE IT.!!! Especially the fighting/banter/fighting/smart ass talk they kept until the end. This woman is a true heroine..

Where should I start... Well by describing Julian as a total womanizer/ass ho/pain in the Aaaa/Man hooooooo!!! but so fuc"#&//!"%&ng H-O-T!!!!!!!!

Julian King is a shiny top lawyer and happens to be the boss´s son, but he´s been away from the firm for almost a year while working in a case trial trying to prove his clients innocence. When he gets back his father makes a party in celebration of his younger child success in the case he just won, but also is celebrating that he hired a new attorney. When Julian meets Heaven he is impressed on how young and beautiful the woman is as well as the reputation she has (for winning all the cases she takes, because of how highly his father speaks of her). He can see her beauty behind the woman´s horrible attire and assumes she dresses like that to get respect for her talent instead of her looks and tries to seduce her right from the beginning but she cuts him off and leaves.

"Then he watched in total fascination 

as she regained her composure".

"Prude". Angered by her words.

"Whore". She spat out before turning around and walk away.

Heaven Deville living in a brothel since birth and after having several shocking experiences along the years while living there, she grew up hating men and didn´t want to have anything to do with them. She went to college, studied to be a lawyer and went to work for an internship position at the best firm "The King law firm" on the east coast(Chan chan chan!!!!). When she finally meets Julian she is taken aback by his behavior in having such liberty to just take her hand and kiss it so intimately as she is well aware about all the gossip people spread of him in the office. They have a face to face altercation at the party where they were introduced by his father....and since then hell broke loose.

***Spoiler Alert****

That being said, Heaven and Julian were very much alike, always seeking the same cases and going to each other throats to get what they wanted even making their co-workers and father/boss uncomfortable for the fights they got with each other in order to get the newest case. When a partnership position is available in he firm Ian King, Julian´s brother tells Heaven that his brothers proposition for the partnership was really good and he was ahead of her and was more likely he will succeed on winning over her. Heaven feels for the first time fear that this man will succeed to be partner instead of her just for being the boss´s son or for being really good at his work. She VERY CLEVERLY decides to sneak into his office after work hours to steal his proposition and damage his computer, so she get in his office, runs a killer virus into his machine and steals his paperwork.

What happens the next morning???!!!!!

He sends his secretary to go tell Heaven he needs to speak to her immediately and to go to his office and when she arrives he .......

I AM NOT GOING TO TELL YOU HOW HE FINDS OUT...WHICH IS THE REASON SHE SIGNS FOR 30 DAYS TO BE WITH HIM AT HIS DISPOSAL. 

"I want you- every inch of you. I want you naked and on your knees before me, I want to stick my tongue in every orifice on your body, and I want to fuck you until you're begging me to stop."  WHAAAA?!!! NOW THAT´S A LINE......

This book was very scorching and steamy with lots of sex, some BDSM, possessiveness and too much love even when the main characters had it in front of them and weren´t aware it was there. I also felt uneasy by the way he treated her. I mean one thing is serving a sentence but he went beyond that and was messing around with her at work, not allowing her to do her job properly. People wasn´t supposed to know about them and what does he do?!!! He buys her sexy clothes to wear at work, they stop fighting in the office, he is constantly summoning her to his office, to take her bra, or panties, or touch her or whatever and because of his stupidness because that´s the only word it comes to my mind for him acting like that when he was told to stop messing around with girls at his father building, all the REAL issues start. I mean what is wrong with him, if he ratted her with his father and the police she would lose her job and probably go to jail and at the same time he kept putting her in compromising situations at work with the possibility of being exposed to her co-workers and that way she could lose her job too... 

I really enjoyed the pace this book had but not the ending because everything went too fast and I really feel like it deserved a whole chapter.

I have so much more quotes I would like to share but... YOU WILL HAVE TO KEEP READING MY FRIENDS as I can only tell you one thing.. that was one of the most hilarious stories I have ever read or heard of :S. I mean the situation she puts herself into hahaha clever girl not so clever while trying to backstab his Nemesis. Even under the storm she remained shameless and brazen while admitting her fault (good girl.!). I laughed so hard and got so mad while reading this book. I just couldn´t stop reading. I kind of have love/hate/lust/love feelings for Julian.

Convicted (Consequences #3) by Aleatha Romig

Book blurb.

You must stick to your CONVICTION, but be ready to abandon your assumptions - Denis Waitley

Book #3 of the Consequences Series—

There were still lessons to learn and consequences for the truth!
When Claire Nichols met Anthony Rawlings, she didn’t know they had a past, or that he had plans for her future. Over time, the role of teacher changed—games became reality—and domination turned to desire. Despite an insurmountable history, Claire and Tony found their way back to one another.

Just when they seemed to have it all—love, respect, and the promise of a family—the game master exposed the truth. Claire’s world once again spun out of control. Unwilling to allow her child to suffer the consequences of an old vendetta, Claire fled...

At one time, Claire was held captive in an opulent mansion—then her incarceration was a cell inside a state penitentiary. Was her new prison—a tropical island—truly less lonely? Perhaps that was the game master’s plan, all along? 

Who will save Claire from her oldest nightmare and her newest reality? Will it be Tony? Can he forgive her for leaving him—again? Harry? Will he utilize previously unknown connections to save the woman who infiltrates his thoughts? Maybe Phil? Will his devotion in keeping Claire and her child safe be rewarded? 

As the cards are played—sins of the past, innocent victims, and truths are revealed. With compartmentalization no longer an option, is the reality too much? Could there be an even worse isolation? 

With the game master dealing from a stacked deck, can this new high-stakes game possibly be won?

When it’s all over and their cards are on the table—SOME will discover their bets were too high—they have nothing left to lose—ALL will learn the crucial lesson—the most important rule—there are CONSEQUENCES for the TRUTH! 

Aleatha Romig’s CONVICTED!

............................

So I was stalking Aleatha Romig´s blog as I always do every 2-4 weeks to check up on updates about this installment and I saw the following question to discuss with book clubs:

http://www.aleatharomig.blogspot.mx/p/contact-aleatha.html

Book Club Discussion Questions for TRUTH by Aleatha Romig

20.  Many readers have found solace knowing that Claire is happy in the "Afterward". Who are the possibilities for her "husband"? Which man do you believe is with her? 

I´m going to sound very "Hit me but don't leave me" but... Common! we all know Claire is going to end up with Tony. Not Harry and NOT even Phil(ugh). How do I know that? Because she loves that man. Period. Even after the verbal, emotional, physical, sexual and psychological abuse, she was still there. After she was released from prison, even when she told everyone she hated him and wanted revenge there was a part inside her that  still loved him and missed him.

If Caleb and Olivia had their HEA in The Dark Duet and their story was more fucked up than this one why can´t Tony and Claire be together. They have grown so much in this two books.

Harry is H-O-T cute guy and I don´t really think Claire will choose him over Tony because she is carrying Tony´s child and she went to all that trouble at the end of Truth to protect her baby. Tony is also Alpha male and Harry is not and they don´t share that intense passion. It was also revealed to her that Catherine is the master mind behind all the tragedies in her life or at least that´s what I think. I don´t really sense Tony killing all those people and Claire will do whatever it takes to protect her family (Tony included).

You know what I hate the most..?! That Mrs. Romig is not giving anything away, not even in the synopsis of the book. Damn her!!! I hate her..and love her at the same time :(

One thing is for sure. They don't end up together. I WILL CRY.. YEAH.!! THAT´S RIGHT I WILL CRY LOL Cause apparently that´s the only thing I will be able to do after getting my heart broken.

*****REVIEW WITH HUGE SPOILER ALERT*****DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU WANT TO SPOIL YOUR RIDE*****

10/10/2013

WHAT A RIDE! THANK YOU!! I CAN FINALLY WORK IN PEACE...

"I suppose I should start in the beginning - March 2010. No, that wasn't when I was born. It was when I began to live." 

This is one of a few books I could give more than 5 stars. Questions from book 1 and 2 were finally answered in this one. I love twisted love stories and I have to admit I dreaded reading this final installment because I wasn't sure how it was going to end. 

The whole book you are going back a forth from when Truth ended to 2016. YES! 2016 as in present time. When we read about 2013 when Truth ended we see Tony but in 2016 no one talks about him. We don't know where he is and you fear the worst the whole time. The answer to why Tony is not present in 2016 is heartbreaking! I almost had a coronary. I was going crazy trying to put everything together. Impressions and assumptions are deceiving. Yes! Everything we thought we knew from book Cons and Truth changes in Convicted. People we got to know and grew in our hearts were deceitful. All the teams we were betting on were a complete lie. I didn't expect those turn of events. Seriously...

This is a very complex story and not just the plot but the way it is built. It gives you eye opening revelations. There are a lot of characters involved and several POV's as well. I had to re read "Consequences" and was about to do the same with "Truth" but Convicted was released yesterday and I couldn't wait to read it. before 90% or so of this book I was in tears when Claire is writing in her journal about how the story ended. I almost had a HEART ATTACK ALEATHA. Thank you very much!I screamed: WHAT?!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! internally obviously because I was at work and I could be fired if I get caught reading LOL. 

Tony confesses everything he had done to Claire and my heart broke in his POV remembering how he abducted Claire it was horrible to read and imagine what he had done to her while she was drugged I think Aleatha gave us that as an out to stop loving Tony but it didn't work. Bad people can get redeemed.

"Theirs was a long, complicated story with a monster and a knight. What made their story unique was that these two players were the same person." 

I'm Team Tony since Consequences no matter what he had done, except at the end of it of course, but I really enjoyed him groveling for forgiveness. We gave him too much credit for all the lives that were altered with "his supposedly actions". Truth is, the only life he played with was Claire by having her imprisoned in his house and then in jail. 

"Some would argue that a foundation built on kidnapping, isolation, violence, and yes - even rape - would never stand. I must disagree. We lived through hell and came out the other side." 

I really hated Emily, I never liked her since "Cons". I'm not defending Tony but she changed her personality while he controlled her, but even if her change wasn't because of Tony's threads, Emily was such a pain in the ass. Always criticizing why her hair was blond, why she was so skinny, etc etc, etc. Up until the end, she just wanted to nail Tony. The book Meredith published gave him a bad image. Of course he deserved it and also not being trusted but she just isolated Claire in a mental facility not allowing [ visitors and people reminding her of Nichol and Tony. I kind of felt that she envied Claire and wanted to keep her sick in that place. I also thought that she wanted to keep her daughter and its benefits. She just wanted to do what she "thought" was right because doctors said her head injuries might have affected her "poor decisions" in the past. Seriously she's a bitch. Brent cleared everything about the whole Claire and Tony wanting to kill Catherine and Even though  Claire was lucid and talking and wanting to see people she denied her rights. She though she was the mother fucking hen and she could control her every move even when she knew at the end Tony was not the reason she was sick. Even john admits he saved them. Thanks to Meredith  Claire came back from her "memories"  and not thanks to her stupid sister. 

"They say I'm a victim of abuse, and as such, I don't understand the difference between love and applied behavior. How can that be true? If I don't know my own feelings, how can anyone else?" 

Amber and Harry what can I say about those two. The revelations I got about those two while reading gave me some WTF moments. They are siblings and both deceiving  of course. Yes! I never thought Harry would have been playing Claire in Truth all along. He looked so sincere and loving. From super supportive man to undercover FBI Agent?! WTF. I won't even go there and explain the whole shit about them because truth is I HATE THEM and am glad they are out of the picture. I just can't believe what he did to Liz. Poor woman I wouldn't have forgiven him so easily. He's the kind of man that sees ass and will follow it without question. ASSHOLE. Amber, well she was  a gold digging selfish bitch.

It was painful and heartbreaking how Sophia and Derek story ended. Their love was glitch-free. They could survive everything. But that was just tragic. They deserved better.

For Tony and Claire to have a somewhat wide age difference made them more real to me. As she explained they have went through hell and back. What they lived, experienced, felt and lost over time was not something they could forget or take lightly. They spend years apart from each other one when she was in jail and then when she was in the mental facility. If "sickness"(Stockholm Syndrome) was the case she would have been "cured" and not mourn for her long lost love. Just saying... sigh* They were the only ones able to decide their own fate *sigh* *sigh* People where still gonna talk about them.

Again our minds get played by Aleatha and I loved it. I can't wait to read "Behind his eyes".

“I fell in love with you while you were supposed to be my prisoner; however, I’ve loved you since before I knew love existed…" 

I only have a question and that is when Claire [ asks Tony if there were letters while he was in jail from women trying to take "her place" and he says "I even - " and then changes the subject. Does it have to do with Patricia getting fired?

I loved Phil and Eric they looked all bad boys checking their surroundings in paradise like eagles. BADASS!

This book should get to the big screen!

The Gatekeeper's Challenge (Gatekeeper's Trilogy #2)

Ten agonizing months have gone by since Therese faced off against her parents’ murderer at Mount Olympus, and she suspects Thanatos’s absence is meant to send her a message: go on with your life. She tries to return Pete’s affections even though her heart aches for the god of death, but when Than shows up to take her hamster’s soul, she becomes infuriated when he says he’s “been busy.” In cahoots with her new friend, who's gotten in with the Demon Druggies at school, Therese takes a drug that simulates a near-death experience, planning to tell Than off so she can have closure and move on, but things go very, very wrong.

Eventually she learns Than has been busy searching for a way to make her a god, and he’s found it, but it requires her to complete a set of impossible challenges designed by Hades, who hopes to see her fail.

Review:

I liked this book way much more than the first. After the gods make an oath in River Styx not to make Therese a God because she is not worthy of Thanatos after she failed to kill the man who murdered her parents, she is left alone. She keeps having dreams of Than but she hasn´t really seen him in ten long months. 

I understand why Than is in love with her but not the other way around. Yes, he is H-O-T, she met him at the skirts of the underworld when she followed her parents after the accident, and kissed him because he was very lovely, but we never really know what does she sees in him besides being gorgeous, the God of death and kind to her. There were parts that made me laugh by the wit of them both. 

I was seriously glued to my kindle when reading the five challenges. She had to [ deliver a black box to Persephone without opening it, take an apple from Hera´s garden that is guarded by a a one-hundred headed snake and take it to Mount Olympus, walk through the labyrinth and pass the Minotaur, defeat the Hydra and finally go to the underworld and apologise to Vicky and go back to the living world WITHOUT LOOKING BACK...

She almost passed with honors each and one of the challenges and guess which one did she failed?! She was soooo Soooo easily tricked and that is something I didn´t like at all and in my opinion the Furies were extra information we didn´t have to read.. She was already calling for Vicky, they didn´t have to "force"/"scare" her to do it. Seriously?! I think the series could end with this one but I´ll give the benefit of the doubt and read the third installment why?! Because I want my HEA without Than suffering year by year  at the hands of the maenads.

How are you going to pull that off Mrs. Pohler?!

"May I pet him?" - I was glad not to see this very often in the story. There were parts I thought I saw a glimpse of a more mature Therese.

"Stormy" - Something about that name makes me feel bile in the throat. She is 16 and names a foal Stormy..(Maybe I prefer strong names)

Again I think Therese should have been older, there is strong content in this one.. [ Burning alive to become a God, teenagers getting drugged to die for few minutes and get near death experiences to see their loved ones (How to get drugged 101) and we all know Jen is being molested by her father.

Aside from the things I didn´t like, I read this book in a day, It´s good indeed. This woman knows her way through Greek Mythology. Maybe she is a Historian ... hmmm

In a Heartbeat (Heartbeat #1) by Teodora Kostova

“I’ve been in and out of hospitals for the past ten months. I’ve had half my liver removed and even though this time the doctors are very optimistic that they’ve removed all of the tumours, they can’t be sure. In another three months they want me here again for a check up. Right now I feel better than I’ve ever felt. I know the damn thing is gone, at least for the moment. Despite that, I can’t make any plans for the future, not yet. I need to go somewhere where nobody knows me, where I can relax and maybe even forget about all this. Where I can meet people who don’t think of me as the girl who lost her father and her brother in a car accident, and who has cancer. I want to have fun, even if it’s for a couple of months.” 

When Stella decides to visit her estranged cousin Lisa in Genoa, she has no idea Italy will give her a new reason to live.

Max

“Her gaze locked on a scene so beautiful, the picturesque beach paled in comparison. A lifeguard emerged from the water, his orange trunks stuck to his legs and water dripping all over him. He shook his head to get rid of some of the water in his hair and Stella felt as if everything started developing in slow motion – tiny drops of water slid from his neck down his broad chest and muscular arms, along a weaving tattoo on his right shoulder, and continued downwards towards his chest and washboard stomach, finally getting lost in the waistband of his trunks. A part of another tattoo peeked over his trunks on his left hip, the other part hidden under them. It was a total Baywatch moment.”

Their love is epic. But there are too many things keeping them apart.

“How could you keep this from me, Lisa? If you had told me the first day I met him, I would have avoided him like the plague. Nothing would have happened between us.”
“I kept your secrets, too, Stella.”

Are Max and Stella strong enough to fight not only for their love, but for their lives?

Review:

For the lovers of The Edge of Never and anything similar to that story... I give you.. "In a Heartbeat"

This was a very emotional story. The way she portraits Stella´s insecurities about getting involved with someone because of her condition. I loved Max caveman personality. I would have loved that Beppe and Gias story had deepened. There was just too much of them that was left hanging. Also, Beppe´s attitude towards Max at his birthday party... I just didn´t get it. I wanted an explanation too. Ohh and Lisa and Gino too.. I have deeply intrigued by those too...

If I tell you anything else I would be giving away all the story... Enjoy your read ;)

***SOON***

Unbeautifully (Undeniable #2) by Madeline Sheehan

Warning: This is not a story about fate or destiny. This is a story about pain, sorrow, and suffering. This is an impulsive whirlwind romance between two lovers that are not meant to be together. Theirs is not a world with sunshine and roses. Instead, their love blossoms in a secret world full of crime, violence, and death. Their story is about what can be born from nightmares. 

Danielle “Danny” West is the daughter of Deuce West, President of the Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club. A sweet and beautiful girl, she loses her way, searching for things that are always out of her reach. Erik “Ripper” Jacobs is the Sergeant of Arms in the Hell’s Horsemen. Once a man who always had a smile on his face, his life takes a turn for the worst when a tragedy befalls him, leaving him scarred and broken. During a midsummer night, Danny and Ripper’s paths cross, forever changing their lives. Hastily, their lust turns to love until another tragedy forces them apart. On a journey that is marred with ugliness and chaos, Danny and Ripper must discover if their unforeseen connection can find the beauty in their world. 

This is Danny and Ripper’s story. 

Everything has beauty. Even the ugly. Especially the ugly.
Because without ugly, there would be no beauty.

Review:

Finally after 3 long days.. I feel comfortable to post my review... yeii ;)

There´s no secret I didn't enjoy reading Undeniable . I liked it and felt all the drama but it was just too much for me but I kept reading and got hooked waiting for this one... and this one left me waiting impatiently for the one after that and so on.

I had two options. One, read the third installment of one of my favorite series "The Blackstone affair" or... the sequel of some MC asshole bikers... Guess what I read first?!

Ladies and gentlemen, for your consideration... Unbeautifully.

I`ve read books where authors write 2 POV´s and they are great but Madeline didn´t want 2 POV´s... she WANTED perfection and had to go all the way and write not 2 but 4 POV´s that left me speechless!!!! She managed to keep the characters personality intact and make them grow emotionally all the way to the end. I wonder how she does it.

My feelings towards this book... 

This book is not sugar coated .. Is twisted and fucked up (Twisted as Fuck I might say). We all know the Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club guys are assholes and criminals too and they only care about screwing girls, drinking and the club obviously. This book was written crude without apologies and TRUTH is.. I'm pretty sure there´s an entirely different world out there we don't know about where these type of shit happens. There´s a thin line between dark and light and she was able to dissipate that line where it becomes a gray area and everything doesn't look so bad. Even when we know they torture and kill people and cheat on their women we start having strong feelings for them.. I know I did and my heart was broken for Danny and Ripper. I just wanted them to be ok. HOW FUCKED UP AM I ?!!!

When I started reading the first chapter I was like "Damn it.! She wrote the end at the beginning.!!!" I was so mad...Then... she goes back 3 years before the HEA of Eva and Deuce. My GOD.!! Those 2 had to much to work on to be happy... I was glad they finally found peace with each other.

Danny and Ripper ... What got to me was the fact that this guy wasn't and Adonis..well not anymore after the number Frankie did on him in UnD. This was sort of a Beauty and the Beast story. He being the physically scared bad guy and she the beautiful damsel who melted the heart of the man of ice and I loved it.

When I finished UnD and found out she was dating ZZ I thought "Awww.. cute couple" .. Then, I read the synopsis of UnB and "WTH.!! Ripper?! Ugh disgusting! Believe me my friends.. so many H-O-T sex between those two that when you finish reading all you'll want is a Ripper screwing you all day long. At least I want a taste of THAT.!

There were parts were I said: (Danny & Ripper) "Damn, so hot", "Damn, he didn't .!! Did he?" "OMG, she didn't " "Agr, fucking asshole", "Agr, why you so stupid girl..!!!" (Deuce and Eva) "Deuce, you bad boy.!!" "Eva.!! Stop whining and go get you man!" "Agr, fucking asshole too".

We also get to see Kami and Cox´s relationship... which was hilarious.. but you can tell they love each other to death..

"And sometimes, love is unconventional and it breaks all the rules and blurs all the lines and basks in its glory, shining as bright as the sun, unapologetically glowing even under the narrowed stares of society and its screaming self-righteous morals, berating and judging that which it doesn´t understand." 

Destiny puts them together, they have to hide their relationship from her father (Motherfucking Deuce), tragedy happens, dramaMORE tragedy happens, more dramaaaaa, MOREEEEE tragedy happens.. And in the midst of all the shit what does the oldest MC biker do? He lits up a cigarrette ..... I love Bluee.. LOL . I ain`t gonna spoil ANYTHING else about this story…. well, only at the end with my fav quotes so don't read them. You'll have to read the whole story and enjoy the fucked up world Madeline Sheehan has introduced to us.

"That moment when you finish a book, look around, and realize that everyone is just carrying on with their lives as though you didn´t just experience emotional trauma at the hands of a paperback." 

After my brain got drained with UnB I was..

I am officially a sucker for Madeline Sheehan books... 

This was so much better than a TV Drama show. I truly loved this story. I guess since I had previously met almost all the characters from the first book I already knew what to expect. Drama, lust, hatred, more drama ... fucked up feelings, twists and turns. Just when you think everything is fixed and the main characters will get their HEA .. WHam!!!! some deep shit happens. 

****BEWARE OF SPOILERS****

FAV QUOTES...MOMENTS...

"Danny, three songs gone by and there´s some old fuckin´ bitch makin´ statutory rape faces at me."

Because, shit, Danny wasn´t pussy he should be scoping. Danny was Deuce´s daughter. A bullet to the head.

Naked?
Fuck.
He´d passed out at the lake.
Fuck.
He glanced behind him.
FUCK.
And all at once his memories came back, slapping him in the face, each one harder and more painful than the last.
"Congratulations," he said. "You´ve just fucked yourself to death."

Maybe this was how his miserable life was finally going to end: Death by pussy.

"You´re so fuckin´crazy, bitch!" 
"And you´re a fucking whore!"
"I smiled at her, bitch! That´s all I fuckin´did! For fuck´s sake, you insane fuckin´whore, I fuckin´married you! I haven´t been inside another bitch in forever!"
Kami brought her knee up straight into Cox´s balls and he went down like a sack of potatoes, cupping himself and groaning. Hands on her hips, Kami glared down at him. "Do you want a medal, Cox-sucker?" she hissed. "I already know you haven´t touched another woman! I have you followed!" (Woooaa what?!! hahaha Psycoo)
"You...crazy...bitch," Cox gasped. "As soon...as I can... I´m gonna... fuck...you...to death!" (WHAT?! Fuck you to death?! hhahaha )

"Look at me, Danielle." (ahhhh so fucking sexy)

"I´m fucking Puerto Rican! Say it Kami say Puerto Rican!"
"No!"
"Say it!"
"American Indian!"

Deuce looked back to Danny, worried about the strange expression on her face. He followed her line of sight to...
Ripper?
They appeared to be having a staring contest, the rest of the world forgotten, no winner in sight.
What the fuck?

I was weeping by the end. Now everywhere I look, I want to find my own Ripper :(

Well played Madeline, well played....

Soo Whats going on inside that twisted fucked up dirty head of yours?! Are we gonna have a Dirty/Somepeaceofass story?!
