Double Dealing: A Loveswept Classic Romance by Linda Cajio
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Double dealing is a very sweet story, and a good plot i could say as i never guessed till at the end when was revealed.
The book begins when Jed tries to sneak into Barkeley estate to speak with Merriman Barkeley the owner, to convince him to go thru with the deal to sell the estate to the company he works for. But he is in for a surprise when instead of him he finds his childhood friend Rae, Marrimam's niece and the new owner of the estate.
When Rae turns down his offer to sell and Jed is not backing down, Rae comes up with a brilliant plan. To kidnapped Jed. Soon she realized wot a big mistake she made, so she decides to release him but Jed has others plans and he wants to stay kidnapped.
I normally don't read this type of books, not enough steamy or complicated but i had fun reading this one. Simple for the reason that it was really funny and a very light read.
Overall this book was a good read, i was pleasantly surprised how much i enjoyed it and if you are in a mood for a light read this is the perfect book.

Falling for the Backup by Toni Aleo
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
4 Stars
Falling for the Backup is a novella in the Assassins series and i enjoyed it lots, more than i expected to be honest. When i requested this book i really had doubts if i would like it or not in special cause i couldn't finish the previous book in this series, but now i am very glad that i requested it.
Jordan is a hockey player in a big team but at the moment he goes thru a shitty period of his life, quite insecure and i have to say i loved his insecurities. They touched me deeply. One of the reason being, that most of the time a sport man is quite cocky and arrogant but not him. And that made me adore him even more.
Aynslee the heroine of this book it's just amazing. She is a teacher, very sweet and funny, sexy and confident, quite sassy, but the most important thing she is very honest and has the whole package to make her the perfect heroine when you read a book.
My thoughts.
I really enjoyed reading this book, was such a fun read. One thing I like in a book is to feel chemistry between the characters and they had plenty of it. They really make a nice couple. Wot was different in this book is that the heroine chases the hero and not the other way round and makes a nice change sometimes.
Even if i am not a big fan of novellas cause of their length, this one was really good and you won't be disappointed if you decide to give it a go. Overall this novella was a good read and i had fun doing it.

My Rating: 4 out 5 Stars
Devlin Morgan and Gradyn Connell have one
thing on their minds when they meet in a bar one Friday night in San
Francisco. One good, hard fuck.
After the hell he’s been through,
Gradyn knows the young man sitting at the end of the bar--with his
sweet nervousness and beautiful face--is just what he needs. And Gradyn
has absolutely no problem getting up to say hello.
Devlin knows
inviting muscle-bound, tattooed Gradyn to his motel room is the riskiest
thing he’s ever done, but there’s something in the man’s warm green
eyes that tells Devlin everything will be all right.
One
explosive encounter in Devlin’s motel room is the plan. Only, it turns
out one hot fuck isn’t enough for either man. Dinner afterward leads to
another round in bed, and what follows is a weekend together that stirs
more emotions than either Devlin or Gradyn ever expected to feel.
Fast
forward five years. Devlin has never forgotten Gradyn but he has moved
on with his life. That is, until he walks into his sister’s workplace
and comes face to face with the man from his wild weekend in San
Francisco.
Except, this man is calling himself Garrick Langley.
This man is a shell of the man Devlin remembers and hardly looks like
the same person. And the biggest kick in Devlin’s gut? This Garrick
Langley pretends he doesn’t know Devlin at all.
No. Fucking. Way.
Devlin
doesn’t care what this man looks like or that he has a new name.
Garrick Langley is Gradyn Connell, and they both know it. Devlin is a
lot more secure in his own skin now, and he wants answers. This Garrick
had better look out because Devlin won’t stop until he uncovers every
one of Gradyn’s secrets.
Note: This title contains male/male acts
of loving, including oral, anal and rimming. Also includes scene with
mild bondage and spanking.
Devlin and Garrick it's the 2 book in the Seeking Redemption
series and i truly enjoyed it. Such an awesome book with a good story
line and plot, sweet, intense and very, very HOT. It's been ages for me
since i read an m/m book with such great, intense, dirty and sweaty sex
scenes.
Wot i loved the most about this book was the chemistry
between Devlin and Garrick. To actually get properly into a book i need
to feel the MC's connection and connect with them and Cameron Dane did
an wonderful job with this one.
When i read a book i normally like to guess the plot but that did not happened in this case. (view spoiler)
Devlin
and Garrick are really awesome. They both sweet, sexy, intense and with
there feet planted on the ground. Devlin it's a bit shy as well in
special when they meet for the first time (view spoiler) and Garrick comes across more as an alpha male (view spoiler) but you have to wait till you meet the real Garrick and form your opinion about him.
Why this book it's a 4 stars for me and not 5
So
you probably wonder why i choose to rate this book as a 4 star if i
praise it so much. My only problem with this book is that 30% or maybe
more of this book are flashes from the past when the MC's remembers
different situations. I did not liked this at all. It really did my head
in. I am not a big fan when i read a book to have so many flashes from
the past. But that's just my opinion, this book would've been even more
great with out them.
Overall this book it's a great read and you won't be disappointed if you choose to do so.
Every Move He Makes by Barbara Elsborg
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I wish i could rate this book higher and i wish this book end it as it began but unfortunately that did not happened.
I am not quite sure why this book did not worked out for me, in special cause has the right ingredients to make it a winner for me: MI6, russian spies, sexy guys, hot sex but something didn't really add up and i am not sure wot exactly. I just feel that something was missing but i can't put my finger on it to pin point what or were exactly it went wrong.
As the action in the book it's based in UK, mostly in London, when you add MI6 into the contest made this book even more tempting to read it. One of the reason being, i live in London and i love it here and i enjoy everything wot has to do with MI6, i think being an agent for MI6 sounds more sexy than FBI and CIA but that's just me.
The character's had nice chemistry, the story and the plot was good as well and let's not talk about sex, that was really awesome but in a way i felt the book was rushed at one point and in the same time a bit too long.
But overall this book it was an enjoyable read and this is just my opinion and how i felt about it, other people might love it and will be a shame not to give it a go.

Not My Spook! by Tinnean
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
3 stars
I really wanted to like this book and i tried too, but the book it's an absolutely mess the way it's written. I had the same problem with the 2 book in this series as i did with the first one, to repetitive.
Such a shame cause the subject and the plot are really good but the book it's still quite enjoyable. It's like something pulls me towards it to go and find out how Vince and Quinn's story will end.

Houseboat on the Nile by Tinnean
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was looking forward reading this book. I can't say it's bad cuz it not but the writing it's all over the place and so repetitive. My main problem is that the author keeps repeating the points of view from each character and half of this book it's so unnecessary.
For example you will read first Vince point and 50 pages later you will read the same thing again but from Quinn's point and not a lot of changes cuz is nothing else knew to find out and that's not all, the author will go back and like 3 chapters behind and i just didn't understood why he will do that. I have to say this is the first time i read this kind of book and hasn't really gone well for me. A the beginning i was very confused and took me a while to actually understand wot was going on and i found that pretty disturbing.
In my opinion this book needs a good clean up from a good editor and make the author do small changes like not dragging this book so long when is not necessary and to stop skipping so much between the teh characters point of view. I would loved not to read the same thing again and again and the points from the characters to be more often and to be one after the other and a bit more often.
I am not sure if i make sense of wot i am saying but i am a bit annoyed cuz this could've been such an amazing book.
Overall the story and the plot are quite good. I love the chemistry between Vince and Quinn, they really hot and the sex is really amazing as well.
