Review: WHISKEY UNDONE by Carrie Ann Ryan!

My Review: My feels! Man, Carrie Ann Ryan hit me right in the emotions. Sure, this book is amazing, just like everything else this author writes, but I really felt an emotional connection with these characters, this story.. just the whole thing. I really feel like the author punched me right in the feelings, and I actually want to thank her for that. I mean, sure, I didn't really *want* to cry, but you know what, I'm still grateful. Just prepare yourself now.

I'm sad that this series is over. It just felt a little different than this author's usual work, more emotional, deeper.. just different. I love pretty much everything this author has written that I've gotten my hands on, but there was something special about this series. These will definitely be on my to-be-re-read list, and I absolutely cannot wait to see what she comes up with next!

Cover Lovin': Love it!

Recommendation: Each can be read as a stand-alone.

Final Rating: FOUR out of FIVE stars (4/5)!! Another amazing read from Carrie Ann Ryan! 

About WHISKEY UNDONE

Two best friends follow a dangerous and seductive path in the final standalone novel of the bestselling Whiskey and Lies series from NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan.

Ainsley Harris has always kept a secret from her best friend. She’s stood by his side, helped him raise his daughter, and tried to keep her distance even though she’s been in love with him for years. She knows he has secrets of his own and she’s not willing to chance what they have on a possibility.

Loch Collins has hidden himself and his past from the world for good reason. Darkness always comes back to haunt those who fight against it, and he knows better than most. One night of temper, however, forces him to realize his true feelings for Ainsley—for better or worse.

But Loch’s former allies aren’t on his side anymore, and now not only is his life and the life of his daughter on the line, but Ainsley is in the crosshairs, as well. Together, two best friends must fight for each other and their small town, because Whiskey has never burned brighter. And danger, it seems, is ever lurking.

Review: PLANNED SEDUCTION by Jess Dee!

Today is our stop on the blog tour for Planned Seduction! Grab your copy today and follow along the tour for all the fantastic release info.

My Review: This story had a lot of good things going for it. First off - it's a friends to lovers story line, and that's an instant classic. Next up, it was the hero that knew he was in love and wanted the relationship, and it was the heroine that was reluctant. While I would see that here or there before, I'm seeing it even more now, and I love it. In so many books it takes some big act or accident, or whatever, for the hero to realize that he's truly in love with the heroine. But not here - Daniel knows he's in love, he knows what he wants, and he's going to do whatever it takes to get her to fall in love with him too.

Now to what made me a little hesitant about this book - Amy. I wanted to shake her and make her realize that she was throwing away a good thing. And no matter what her good intentions were, she was just hurting everyone involved. I get it, being betrayed by a former love sucks royally and does make you look at future relationships a different way. But she just seemed like she was constantly shoving her head in the sand, and neglecting the feelings of the person that is supposedly her best friend.

Cover Lovin': Woo boy, it would be hard to pass this one up!

Recommendation: No prior knowledge necessary!

Final Rating: THREE AND A HALF out of FIVE stars (3.5/5). I thought this was a fun, one-sitting read. I loved Daniel, and he's dedication to getting what he wanted.

Happy Reading!

About Planned Seduction: He has a plan she can’t refuse Daniel Tanner’s been in love with Amy since they were teenagers.

About Jess Dee: An avid romance reader since her early teens, Jess knew one day, when she grew up, she’d have to write her own love stories. And she did. Although the first one was pretty awful. But once she discovered it was okay to leave the bedroom door open in her romance novels, she decided to leave everything open. Buttons, zips, pants, number of lovers...Which is why her books are all steamy erotic romances. Jess’s first published story was originally contracted in 2005. Since then, she’s completed over 30 books, and is finally doing the work she loves most—writing romance.   While Jess lived most of her life in South Africa, the last fourteen years have been spent in Australia. From the fast-paced Sydney lifestyle to the laid-back islands and beaches, there’s always another gorgeous Aussie setting for a contemporary romance.
