I LOVED this book - I honestly don't know why, I actually thought it would be different than what it was though I didn't read much about it other than getting it in my owlcrate and reading it this month I knew it had something to do with gems of some kind, well, thats the thing I got from the tattoos that came with the book anyway - so I was pleasantly surprised at how the book drew out - and I cannot wait for book 2.

This is one book where I don't find the side character to be more of a focus than the main for me - I loved the MC so much - I felt so drawn to her and her plight and felt for her situation.

I feel like perhaps the inevitable romance could have been left out - perhaps just make them buddies - I mean, it's not like it was bad to read but it was just .. in there - though perhaps the next book will go somewhere surprising - I literally can't wait to pick it up! Great job owlcrate, after last month you've redeemed yourself!

This is the second book in a series which I haven't read, but that in no way diminished my enjoyment of this short but spicy Science Fiction read.

The story starts with the invasion of Earth, and then jumps forward to when Jaz is already a Matriarch, mated to two and meeting a potential third. Things are done very differently in this world, and some human females are having trouble adapting. Jaz's counselling experience is able to help her and others to cope with a way of living and loving.

Because I haven't read the first book, I'm not sure if Jaz is mentioned in that, or how she met husbands one and two. This isn't a negative, it's just that this is one fast-paced story so I would like to know more about these characters, just to understand all aspects of the story.

If you are after a short and steamy sci-fi romance with multi partners, then I can definitely recommend this one.

* I received this book from Barclay Publicity in return for a fair and honest review. *

Merissa (13197 KP) rated Full Disclosure (Nice Guys, #2) in Books

Dec 17, 2018

This story is about Mitch and Cody. Mitch is still trying to work on the case that involved his friends, Colt and Jace, from a year or so previously. Unfortunately for him, no-one is particularly interested and wants to pay any attention. He gets sent on assignment to 'collect' someone but upon arrival realises that it is a bust as there is a law convention in town. So he enjoys some time with his friends whilst longing for someone to have a connection with like they do. Along comes Cody.

These two are opposites in pretty much every way but as such actually complement each other... once Cody gets past his issues. I was pretty much yelling at my Kindle as I read the book as I really REALLY wanted them to be together. There is a lot of suspense in this book as the crimes continue but Mitch isn't any closer to finding out 'whodunnit'.

With a cast of amazing supporting characters, an intriguing and suspenseful storyline and sexy scenes that are smokin', this is just a brilliant book full of love, passion and danger. Recommended for all who enjoy M/M romance.
