In an interview on CNN with some female members of a book club, I heard 50 Shades described as a Disney prince fairy tale for grown-ups. I couldn't agree more...of course I can't see old Walt even fantasizing about some of the things that take place in this tale!
I am by no means a fan of erotic literature. Hell, I don't even like trashy romance novels, but this one, DAMN! I was hooked from the get. Now don't get me wrong, it was not the steamy, unbelievable, hot sex scenes that got to me(yes, I am human!) Mr. Grey & Miss Steele are intriguing characters. They are so well developed & in some strange way easy to relate to...not that I know much about bondage or billionaires!
I found myself HATING Christian with a passion & in the next sentence wishing I knew him. He is such a conundrum. I found myself identifying with Ana, yet at the same time not getting her motivation at all. It was a heady mix of confusing & normal all at the same time.
I very much look forward to finding out what happens in the next part!!

Lexi is up against the odds in pretty much everything - working in an Old Boys' school, being abandoned by her family, and having an ex who is a complete jerk. Mattie is the first one we meet and he is a couple of years younger than Lexi. I loved these two! They were so hot but also so caring and protective of each other. One by one, the others appear and we learn more about their past (and how Maddie was involved.) They all suffered and dealt with it in their own ways, but it's only when Lexi appears that they pull together. And I also loved the description they gave her - their North Star.
I thoroughly enjoyed book one and love the world it is set in. This one, I enjoyed more but I still can't quite push to 5 stars. I would have liked a little more from Travis and also a little more of Bree and the interactions with the rest of the pack.
I look forward to reading more in this series and finding out more about Finn Visser! Absolutely recommended by me.
