Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Cuffed by His Charm (Dirty Little Secrets, #4) in Books
May 7, 2019
This is the forth book in this series by this author. This is a suspense filled romance read. The characters are amazing and have fantastic chemistry. This book can be read as a stand alone read or as part of the series. This is a very sexy, sinful story that will keep you hooked till the last page. I can't wait to read more in this series and by this author in the future.

Amazing!
It has everything you could want. Romance, history, fantasy, drama and as the series continues suspense. I can not out it down when I read it. I blew through the series in a week. I can't wait to see how the tv show will come out. This is a must read if you like romance books. It got me in the feels as much as a Nicholas sparks book but different. The character development through out is amazing as well. She is a great writer.

The first three-quarters of this book was brilliant. The scenes were set perfectly, the suspense was building to crazy proportions and my heart was racing at times. The book was let down by it's ending and the introduction of Vic. I wanted there to be a twist, the first one, where we learn of the relationship between Ashley and Mark was good and unexpected, but the second one, the addition of Vic, was poor and ineffective. A pretty good book overall but could've been better.

The way Estelliam writes just hooks you and will not let go. This is the second Alex Hope book and it was even better than the first, which was pretty amazing. Some authors struggle to mix romance with the suspense/mystery but Estelliam gets just the right mix so that one aspect doesn't over ride the other. The charcters are well developed and keep growing as the books progress. The setting is almost a character in itself because it plays a vital part in the story.

I was expecting some blood, gore, violence, and monsters (as you would expect from a novel written by a master of horror) and it was all there, but this isn't strictly a horror novel. It was more of an intriguing paranormal thriller, combined with romance and plenty of drama. The suspense kept me hooked and the believable characters left me thinking about them long after I finished reading the story. I haven't read many Koontz novels, but will definitely be reading more after this one.
Pina and Katie's adventures continue as does their quest to be together. The new characters in this book add so much more to the story that made it even more amazing. Of course I was picturing Hogwarts when I thought setting but I am a nerd. Maggiore does not just create a well paced suspense with numerous twists and turns but also captures the difficulties of being gay in that time. There is so much packed into this story I couldn't put it down. More please!

I've seen this film twice and it's one of those that has stuck with me.
It's not really a cast I would put together; having Sandra Bullock and Kiefer Sutherland as a couple just doesn't sit right with me, but it works in the overall setting of the film. Jeff Bridges is very good in the role of the manipulative murderer, and there is a lot of suspense throughout the film.
Very enjoyable if you like something to keep you on the edge of your seat.

This show may have been controversial in the media for it's portrayal of suicide but it was very thought provoking. It was a great way to show that you should always watch how you treat people and realize that your words and actions affect people. This show had comedy, drama, romance, and suspense. It has something for just about everyone. I would definitely talk to teens about this show before, during, and after watching. I would not recommend for children under 14.

A very well crafted suspense-driven storyline. I really like stories that make it hard for me to foretell what will happen by the end of the book. This was not one of those. I loved the author's writing style and will gladly say I will be reading his other works in addition to this one. I generally give most books a low re-readability rating but for this read I will say I would read it again if time allowed. Thumbs-way-up!

Gripping plot
One you'll never forget
The Passage and the rest of the trilogy are some of the most fantastic books I've read. Continuous adrenalin rush, heart breaking and impossible to put down. Thoroughly enjoyed every sentence. Fantastic use of description, timing and suspense to build incredible pictures and I read as the whole plot unraveled slowly with so many layers.
I recommend to everyone I know who enjoys reading and even those that don't, a fantastic book to get them started. Well done Cronin!
