Scoring Wilder

Scoring Wilder by R.S Grey

Reprisal By: Christa Lynn

You know how a book comes along just at the right moment in your reading cycle? Well this is one of those books. It was like watching a murder mystery show with a side of romance served up. I was sold from the start. I loved Syd, and her strength was truly amazing. This isn't your stroll through the park hand in hand romance novel. The characters have suffered through events that most would never recover from, or even survive. This is my first book from this author, and it won't be my last. She kept me engaged the whole time. 

Gabe... I loved his strength and determination to be the rock that Sydney needed. Their connection wasn't fireworks lighting up the sky; it was a connection made of a vulnerability to love again and a determination to heal. Gabe never backed down. He was willing to fight for Syd -even when she was ready to run, he always chased after. They both exuded strength in their own right, but together they conquered the impossible- the fight to live.

You can't help but fall in love with Gabe and Sydney. They will both frustrate you as they work out the kinks in finding the difference between fighting against each other and fighting for each other. Strong-minded characters pair up well with a strong intense story.

Brawler By: K.S Adkins

Once upon a time there was a story about a captain and a princess.  They fought hard- some times against each other, but always for each other. This is a fairy tale romance done fucking Detroit style. Badass chick takes on hot-tempered guy. I fell in love with Rafe; his endearing foot-in-the-mouth moments made me laugh out loud. Ms. Adkins brought all elements together to make an enjoyable read. You can't help, but fall in love with the story of Rafe and Macy. You will laugh, cuss, tear up, and in the end, smile.

Rafe fell hard for Macy. There was only one problem - he was shit with words. What he lacked in that department, he made up for in protection and persistence; as well as apologizing his ass off every time he messed up - trust me - it was a lot. Macy was strong. What I loved most about her was that it was like I could see her working through each situation like I was the one in the book. The author not only brought them together - she brought them to life. 

In my opinion, Rafe and Macy took over my top K. S. Adkins couple award. The sex scenes were amazing. It seemed like when they were sexually frustrated, I was too. I loved every moment of this book. Did it piss me off? Yeah. That just shows how invested I was in the characters. I love having the protective side of me pulled out in a book that makes me want to cuss the author for any wrong doing I feel is taking place. From my perspective she just keeps getting better and better. It's fucking real talk put in a motherfucking romance book.
