I had a total WTF momI didn't look at the details much before I read this, and OMG... I'm glad because I may not have read it. But I LOOOOOOOOVED it. I had a total WTF moment and was like OMG and then was like 'awe' and I just felt for the characters and I felt their attraction and the sex was super hot (angry sex... yum!) I read it in one day because I couldn't put it down. ...more
OH MY GOSH... I'm beginning to look like a complete ho just based on the Kristen Ashley alphas that I love. First Max... then Chace... Then Mitch... tOH MY GOSH... I'm beginning to look like a complete ho just based on the Kristen Ashley alphas that I love. First Max... then Chace... Then Mitch... then Ham... and now Jake. OMG OMG OMG. This book made me cry like a baby right out of the gate, and then the warmth spread through me. Jake was simply amazing. I bow to Kristen Ashley. Fucking amazing!...more
Seriously, I loved this book. It started with the Skype sex, then the spankings (I do love a good spanking), but then it got all emotional and tortured. When things fell apart, I fell apart. It sucked me in and ripped me to pieces. I loved the references to Montana and Norman Maclean. I adored the Lelo bits (I’m such a freakin’ perv, I swear). But I mostly loved a few lines that stunned and enthralled me…
“He was still with me. He was the negative space.” tore at me...
“Little bird, I thought. Soft warm little bird.” crushed me...
…and the ones that made me giggle, even when I had tears in my eyes…
“No way could I get past this lady; she was solid and Germanic.” *raises hand* Germanic ancestors... I totally get this...
“Nothing says I view you as an invalid quite like the shoulder pat-squeeze.” Bwahahahahahahaha...
As for the cliffy, sometimes a cliffy kills me. Many times, a cliffy will tear me apart and piss me off and make me think, “WTF is the author doing leaving it like that? Is it really that hard to write it all in one god-damn book?” But some intrigue me, tempt me, keep the book at the forefront of my mind long after I press that little button to go back to the home page on my kindle. I have been teased by this epilogue, and my mind is whirling with the possibilities of what could be next. I am very impressed, M. Pierce.
Ordinarily, I would do a nipple count on a book like this. It seems, the author, in effect, beat me to it, so I will defer to his blog post, Pervasive Language Instead, I was thinking of focusing on a ‘bang count’ that gave an idea of how often, during the course of the book, I had to, um… well, you get the idea. Seemed a bit crass, though, even for me. So I will leave it to your imagination. But, yeah… there were definitely moments. ...more
This was a great story (and not just because of the Jared Leto references!) sweet, hot, conflicted. The beginning until about the last third was your This was a great story (and not just because of the Jared Leto references!) sweet, hot, conflicted. The beginning until about the last third was your usual angst and drama, unappreciative boyfriend and the lure of the hottie summer roommate. But then, it gets so real, and I could NOT put it down. Work be damned, I stayed up until well after midnight on a weeknight, but I just HAD to finish. Very nice, Adrian!...more
Oh my.... Rush was oh so yummy. This book was way steamier than I thought it would be, and very emotional... Did I mention Rush was yummy?
Nipple countOh my.... Rush was oh so yummy. This book was way steamier than I thought it would be, and very emotional... Did I mention Rush was yummy?
Nipple count was only 16, but they were a pretty hot 16... Wet = 11, horny = 10, clit = 7, and fuck (sometimes as an expletive, but often followed by "me now") = 83. *groan* This series is not so much the innocent little YA it sounded like at first. And did I mention Rush was yummy? Tongue piercing.... And the boy loves to, um, yeah.....

We had the blonde mohawk...

Then the red mohawk... (okay, Jared's is 'pomegranate'...but close)

Then he shaved off the mohawk...

And then he had 'normal' hair...

Add a few more colorful tats and some, um, well-placed piercings (apa AND Jacob's ladder?! *fans self*) and you have my Rule.
I'm so glad I listened to Ruth and read this. Seriously even cried, which I don't do in most books, but the hospital scene had me doing the ugly cry.
Nipple count was not very indicative of the hotness of the book, so I had to be a little creative... nipple = only 11, junk = 4 (yep, that junk), pierce (or some form of it) = 26 (and included junk and nipples).... 10 cocks (not so innocent young adult read, huh?). Essentially, it was a pretty hot little book that doesn't use the typical hot-book verbiage.
