Short Book Review: Legal Affairs - Confessions of a Litigation God

Legal Affairs - Confessions of a Litigation God by Sawyer Bennett
My rating: 4.5 of 5



 WARNING, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND ASSUMPTION OF THE RISK from Matt Connover, Litigation God: Please do not attempt to read my story in public, as my sexual proclivities have been known to cause squirming in your seat, squeezing of your legs together and unintentional moaning, sometimes with spontaneous bursts of laughter at random moments. If you are offended by the fact that my oral skills are just as accomplished in the bedroom as they are the courtroom, then this book is not for you. There may be moments while reading my story that you get so turned on… so hot and bothered… that your squirming and moaning could turn maniacal in nature and neither I, nor the author, are responsible for the weird looks you may get. Notwithstanding the aforementioned warnings, if you assume the risk and read my tale in public, then I recommend you carry a spare set of panties with you. You will need them and you have been warned.”



My name is Matt Connover. I am a Litigation God.
Other lawyers quake before me.
Women crawl on their knees just to spend the night in my bed and when I’m finished with them, I walk away without a backward glance.

I am well satisfied with my life and there isn’t a damn thing I’d change about it.

That is, until McKayla Dawson came along.

She was meant to be for one night only.
But she got under my skin, and now I want her back underneath my body.

It’s torture working with her in my law firm… day in and day out. But I have to think maybe the Fates have intervened to throw us together because she is unlike anyone I’ve ever known, and thus I need to pay careful attention to these Legal Affairs.

****
Confessions of a Litigation God is a stand alone, full length novel. It follows the affair of Matt Connover and McKayla Dawson as told in the Legal Affairs Serial Romance, Volumes 1-6. This book is told strictly from Matt's point of view and has many additional scenes not included in the serial volumes.


Review:

I haven't read any Legal Affairs books aside from this one but after reading this I know that I need and want to read those books asap!

This was a very HOT read!! I surely recommend this to all my hot-steamy-read loving friends of mine, I loved the characters. I'm in love with Matt fucking Connover and I badly want to be McKayla ! I'm going to re-read this for sure..I think like now because there is no such thing as too much Matt Connover.


 This is a type of book that should be read when you are in the safety of your home with complete privacy..because you are definitely going to blush...alot.

All in all I loved this book, I enjoyed reading this, I'm in love with Matt ..and I'm going to start reading everything written by Sawyer Bennett.

Book Review: Wrecked by Priscilla West

Wrecked by Priscilla West
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


“There would be no happy ending for us. He was too damaged. I was too broken.”

Two years ago, Lorrie’s mother was murdered. But that wasn’t the end of it. Reeling from the tragedy, Lorrie’s father spiraled into alcohol, depression, and finally suicide.

The two most important people in Lorrie’s life are both gone but she’s still alive.

Trying to recover from the tragedy, Lorrie returns to campus, ready to pick up the pieces of her life. All Lorrie wants is to get back to “normal.”

Then she meets Hunter. The man, the legend, “the Hammer.”

Hunter is a cage fighter who takes on every fight like he’s got nothing to lose. His life is a tangled mess of girls, booze, and fist fights. And while it may seem like he’s got a devil-may-care attitude, he’s fighting a private cage-match with a monster he can’t defeat.

Lorrie knows that Hunter is the exact type of guy she should stay away from, especially in her fragile state, but Hunter has other ideas.

As Hunter and Lorrie grow closer together, will they be able to overcome their pain and heal each other? Or will they both end up wrecked?

Review:

I loved this! Both of the main characters are lovable, I loved the fact that they started as friends then their relationship blossoms into something better, I loved the that they gave each other the solace that they both badly needed.

Hunter just like most of the hero in any romance book is a hot, good looking and popular but I liked that unlike most of the hero he's not cocky and bossy in an alpha kind of way, instead he's patient with Lorrie and he offered friendship first when he realize that Lorrie is different from the other girls plus he rescued the kittens! how adorable is that?!

Lorrie, our girl even-though damaged is a fighter and not a pushover , she knows what's better for her and she tries hard to do that no matter how hard thus fighting her attraction to Hunter.

I enjoyed and loved and I might re-read this sooner than I planned. I recommend this to all romance book readers. Can't wait to read the book 2.

Book Review: Captivate by Vanessa Garden

Captivate by Vanessa Garden
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


In a glittering underwater world, nothing is as it seems...

For the past twelve months since her parents’ death, seventeen-year-old Miranda Sun has harboured a dark secret — a secret that has strained the close relationship she once shared with her older sister, Lauren. In an effort to repair this broken bond, Miranda’s grandparents whisk the siblings away on a secluded beach holiday. Except before Miranda gets a chance to confess her life-changing secret, she’s dragged underwater by a mysterious stranger while taking a midnight swim.

Awakening days later, Miranda discovers that she’s being held captive in a glittering underwater city by an arrogant young man named Marko...the King of this underwater civilisation.

Nineteen-year-old Marko intends to marry Miranda in order to keep his crown from falling into the sinister clutches of his half-brother, Damir. There’s only one problem. Miranda is desperate to return home to right things with her sister and she wants nothing to do with Marko. Trying to secure her freedom, Miranda quickly forms an alliance with Robbie — Marko’s personal guard. However, she soon discovers that even underwater, people are hiding dangerous secrets..

 Review:

This is a fast and enjoyable read for me, since I've read this a couple of days ago when there is no internet because of the recent storm in our place I wasn't able to re-read the summary and so I've read this without a clue what this book is all about...and that is seriously refreshing.

I loved the plot, the world building, and the main characters. I was seriously scared that I might fall for the wrong guy (or Miranda will fall for the wrong guy) because to my dismay there's a semi love triangle, I hate love triangles! but thank goodness.. Miranda and I both fell for the same guy lols.


The story started with Miranda being held captive in an unknown place and later discovering her purpose is to wed the king and breed the next heir! Imagine that...that's cray cray but that's just only the beginning.


All in all I loved this. A hidden underwater city. A handsome king. Dangerous Secrets. I am captivated! only to discover that this is not a stand-alone! I'm dying to read the next book.

Cobweb Forest (Cobweb Bride Trilogy #3)

Cobweb Forest by Vera Nazarian

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Book Summary:

The world is broken... A dark Goddess rises. A mortal maiden must stop her. 

COBWEB FOREST (Cobweb Bride Trilogy, Book Three) is the third and final book of the intricate epic fantasy flavored by Renaissance history and the romantic myth of Persephone, about death's ultimatum to the world.

Percy Ayren, ordinary girl from the small village of Oarclaven, and now Death's Champion, has delivered the Cobweb Bride to Lord Death--or so she thinks!

But nothing is ever as easy as it seems. Percy and Beltain Chidair, the valiant and honorable Black Knight, discover that even more is at stake than anyone could have imagined, when ancient gods enter the fray.

It is now a season of winter darkness. Gods rise and walk the earth in unrelieved desire, and the Longest Night is without end...

Meanwhile, landmarks continue to disappear throughout the realm. The cruel Sovereign's dead armies of the Trovadii clad in the colors of pomegranate and blood march north... As the mad Duke Hoarfrost continues to lay siege to the city of Letheburg, it is up toClaere Liguon, the Emperor's dead daughter and the passionateVlau Fiomarre who killed her, to take a stand against the enemy.

But Percy still has a difficult task to do, the greatest task of all... For in the end the Cobweb Bride awaits, together with the final answer.

At last all the occult mysteries are revealed in this stunning conclusion to the Cobweb Bride trilogy.

My Review:

Adding Cobweb Bride Trilogy to my to-recommend and favorite-series-shelf because this series is AWESOME! seriously the in-between waiting for each book to be publish is worth it. Have you ever read a book that is part of a series that totally rocks only to be disappointed in the next book? it happens a lot and it sucks because then I will be so depress and lazy I won't be able to function like a normal being for a few days..lol




so anyways I was skeptic when I started reading Cobweb Forest, I keep on telling myself to lower my expectations and be prepared for anything.




but just like the first two books, Cobweb Forest is a well-written fantasy that keeps on surprising the reader,



the story is never dull and I find myself rooting for Percy and Beltain's happiness. I loved this book though sometimes it tends to overwhelmed me because it's action-packed and lots of things are happening on the same time.


So if you guys are looking for a fantasy read, try the Cobweb Bride Trilogy...I find this series very refreshing and original.

My Review:

It's no secret that I'm in love with Kristen Ashley's book and reading Kaleidoscope reminds me exactly why...


Jacob Decker *dreamysigh is an ALPHA male, protective and well very male..and uhm did I already say SEXY? ..(of course! that's why I loved KA's hero..they are all HOT, badass, sexy and very well..male :)) and if I'm Emma ..he'll surely have me at "Hello" too.

Book Review Sworn to Conflict by Terah Edun

Sworn to Conflict by Terah Edun
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Book Summary:

The latest release in the high fantasy series which has drawn comparisons to Kushiel's Dart, Graceling, and the epic world of Tamora Pierce.

Ciardis Weathervane fought for the living dead and won. But worse than taking on a mass murderer, was her discovery that she had been deceived by her friends. Now she needs to not only fight a war in the North and survive, but also decide where she stands in the midst of competing sides.

A threat to all she holds dear lies in the North and her heart is not the only thing she might lose. A massive army awaits in the mountain pass, surging closer to the gates of the southern lands. Nothing the Algardis army has done so far has dissuaded their march forward and Ciardis finds out that her powers to enhance are needed now more than ever.

As she faces her greatest fears on the battlefields and her heart is torn between her love of Sebastian and loyalty to her family, Ciardis must choose her fate carefully. For in her path, lies the destiny of the empire.

This third novel continues the story of Ciardis Weathervane from Sworn To Transfer.

Review:

This is a wonderful continuation of the Courtlight Series, the third but not the final book..but I wasn't disappointed, definitely not! because half way through the book secrets are being revealed and unexpected wonderful things are happening which causes me to panic because..nOooo! I won't survive a rush ending so I was happy to learn that there would be a forth book and mmm maybe a fifth book? no news yet..anyway I'm happy with how the story progresses and how Ciardis keeps on meeting and becoming friends with unique uhm creatures and people. Sebastian growing into a dependable leader and a partner to Ciardis..Gosh!! I'm loving the ever growing chemistry between Sebastian and Ciardis, oh! how I love their blossoming relationship and I can't wait to read and know what happens next?! The intrigue, the secrets and conflicts equals to a great and exciting read..I want the 4th book NOW!
