It’s easy to convince the world that you have it all. I was Quinn Miller: record-breaking running back, professional football’s favorite rags-to-riches story, all-around good guy. What’s
not so easy? Repairing your reputation after mistakes both on and off
the field leave you labeled as a disgrace to the league. With only one team willing to give me a chance, I had no time for a relationship. But, after one night with Georgia Reed, the hopeless romantic with fiery red hair and an attitude to match, I was hooked. With Georgia cheering me on, it didn’t feel like the world was against me anymore. That was, until her father stepped into the locker room as my new head coach. Finding the woman of my dreams was the easy part; it was keeping her that would be the hardest play of all.
Review
On
the whole, I really enjoyed reading all of the books in this series up
to now though I always needed some time to get into them. This one
wasn't different, I started reading several times till I finally was
hooked by the story.
Even though I loved Quinn and Georgia
together and I liked that they didn't play games but knew what they
wanted. Things were still rough due to their circumstances though I was
frustrated that Quinn had so many problems that could have been solved
if he had just mentioned one thing. He didn't though and I must admit
that I had a hard time accepting his explanation considering the fact
that his whole career was on the line and his team suffered because of
all this secrecy.
There was a lot of drama and I loved how the
two of them dealt with it, together and in the end, the book drew me in
but still, somehow it left me a bit wanting. I thought of their
interactions and their love for each other and loved it and then I'd
think of those things that Quinn didn't share with his team and his
coach and I was upset once again.
The world irrevocably changed after the hellhounds and fey
appeared. Most people didn’t survive that first night. Dad had said we
were lucky we did. I’m not so sure about that anymore. With her father murdered before her eyes and her faith in the
remaining humans shaken, Brenna reluctantly accepts sanctuary in
Tolerance, a safe zone managed by the fey. The wall keeps the infected
out. But it also keeps the humans in…with the very creatures that caused
the world to break.
Big, grey, and ruthlessly deadly, the fey
strike fear in the hearts of men and women alike. But Brenna finds one
more intimidating than all the rest. Scarred and angry, Thallirin
watches Brenna with an intensity that makes her relive the events that
followed her father’s murder. She knows what Thallirin wants, and she’s
never going to be used like that again.
Tormented by her
past, Brenna sees no possible future other than eventual infection or
starvation. There is hope, though. Her community is abuzz with a newly
discovered way to protect women against the disease that’s turning
people into zombies. However, it doesn’t come from a needle.
It comes from sleeping with the dark fey.
Oh my god, somehow these books keep getting better and better! I absolutely loved Demon Dawn and can't wait for the next book in this series to come out. I've read all of the books in this series and loved each and every one. They are funny, captivating and amazing, even though I must admit that at first, I wondered if it was really such a good idea to read a book set in a kind of zombie-apocalypse at a time like this when we have our own kind of apocalypse waiting outside but, well, it was the resurrection series, right? I couldn't resist!
Brenna is another wonderful character who has fought hard to survive in this new world and like many others, she had to learn that the monsters are not always those who look like it. After everything they have been through, I loved how Brenna slowly learned to love the one guy who has been waiting patiently for her to love him back - and I also loved to see her mother find someone to love as well.
If you've read the other books in this series, you will have met Thallirin already. He has not always been one of the good guys but he has worked hard to be accepted by the others again. Oh, by the way - I hope that you've read the other books already because even though most of the books apart from the first three can be read as standalones, you'd miss the world-building and you'd lack some information. It's just more fun if you read them in their order or at least read the first three before you read any of the other books. And now - just dive in, this book is amazing, I hope that you'll love it as much as I do!
Most people avoid the dreaded Whitechapel district. For Honoria Todd, it's the last safe haven. But at what price?
Blade
is known as the master of the rookeries—no one dares cross him. It's
been said he faced down the Echelon's army single-handedly, that ever
since being infected by the blood-craving he's been quicker, stronger,
and almost immortal.
When Honoria shows up at his door, his
tenuous control comes close to snapping. She's so...innocent. He doesn't
see her backbone of steel—or that she could be the very salvation he's
been seeking.
Review
Oh my god, how did I not find these books earlier? Kiss of Steel
reminded me of my love of Steampunk and books about it and I loved and
thoroughly enjoyed every single page of this novel.
Once upon a
time, okay, it feels like that, I read a bunch of Steampunk novels and
loved them but somehow I lost sight of them - this book definitely
changed that! I can't wait to read the next books in this amazing series! I'm halfway through Tarnished Knight already because that also
happened to be on my TBR but I'm looking forward to all of the other books as well.
This imaginative and captivating story with its
amazing characters hooked me right from the first page on and I didn't
put the book down till the end. Honoria Todd and her siblings try to
survive in the rookeries and when she catches the eye of its master,
well, somehow this innocent young woman turns out to be much more than
Blade, the hard master of the rookeries expected...
Oh, by the way - isn't this cover absolutely gorgeous?!?
That awkward moment when an ER doctor has to inform you that you’re pregnant…with his baby.
Three things Lynsey Jones knows about the hot doctor: he’s grouchy, an arrogant jerk, and strangely obsessed with pie.
Three
things Dr. Dick knows: he doesn’t talk about his past, he doesn’t do
relationships, and the crazy girl in the hospital cafeteria who ate a
fistful of French silk pie…is annoyingly irresistible.
After a
chance meetup at a bar and a heated cab ride together, things come to a
head and now instead of hating each other, they’re horizontal in a bed.
Three
months later, the weird cafeteria stalker who crept out of Dr. Dick’s
house like a thief in the night, winds up as his patient in the ER after
her Tinder date from hell.
Dr. Dick is prepared to keep it cool and professional. That is until her bloodwork reveals that she’s pregnant.
What really throws him for a loop…is that the surprise baby…is his.
Review
If you have read and enjoyed Wait with Me and Next in Line, you have probably already been waiting for this book to finally come out. I loved all of the books in this series so far and this one fits right in there as well. Meeting old friends and new, we learn about the creative magic of ...oh, wait, not a waiting room but a cafeteria. And don't forget the French silk pie...
When frustration and anger turn into attraction, things might get heated and when you find yourself in the ER and your doctor has to tell you that you are pregnant and you have to tell him that he is about to become a father, well..... things get really interesting. Once again Amy Daws could captivate me with this story, she made me laugh and feel with her hero and her heroine even though our hero made me despair sometimes with his self-torture. Yes, what happened was hard and tragic but that doesn't explain why he was unable to move on or at least, well, deal with it. Sometimes the part of "I can't love anybody" and "I don't talk about my former life because it's too hard" was a bit too much. Apart from that though, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and loved to see these two find love and their own happy ever after.
