Loving Nate - Janice G Ross

This story had a heated beginning and a slow burning middle but the ending(s) were both so different.
Without giving you a run down account of the whole story this read is different to the usual reads i have on my kindle, it isn't full of sex and there aren't many details about it, the main character Nate is a charming, gorgeous rogue that has Leah having to keep her wits about her not to let him sweep her away with no sense of return, eventually Leah's perfect bubble is burst and she soon realizes he isn't everything he promised, when she gives him her all he takes it and keeps on taking, the story almost ends but then the author offers two endings, one is a HEA but not how you would expect it and the second is just plain sad, i felt as hurt as Leah when i learnt Nate wasn't everything we thought he was but i liked ending number 1's outcome for him, the story was good and as a short read it passed the time but i need a book that has a definite outcome.

C.L.Parker - A Million Guilty Pleasures (Million Dollar Duet, #2)

I was given and ARC from NG for an honest review
I was gutted when i got to the end of this book and it wasn't everything i had hoped it would be from the last read.
I was so set up for an amazing carry on that when i got to the end i felt a little like ripping my hair out.
The first quarter of the book read just like the first book, after than it got a little tiresome, the sex scenes became repetitive, the phrases and speech dragged a little, it was still a good read but not as good as the first, the end scenes seemed a little rushed, i think i'd of preferred a novella carry on to detail the wedding, birth ect, updated on the grandparents ect instead of the most important details of a relationship put into a few pages.
I'd still follow the Author and i'm sure future books would be great reads, i just felt this one wasn't so thought out at the end.

Rachel K Burke - Sound Bites

I read this book last night and finished it last night, i enjoyed the short read and didn't feel i'd wasted time reading it.
It was a great love story that had some bad lows, i feel it could of done with some work such as the friends reunion scene, i don't think things would of gone so smoothly and the end scene (no spoilers) there seemed such little emotion for such a romantic setting, it was a sweet story not steamy, there was talk of sex but no intimate scenes and given the cover i had expected some. I'd like to read a follow up story based on the best friend.
