K.L. Shandwick (3 KP) created a post

Nov 20, 2017  
Missing beats happen in a fraction of time. For Jo and Kane they changed their lives in ways neither could have ever imagined.


To Jo, rock stars = Fame. Money. Music. Sex. A lifestyle she literally has no respect for.
Josie Carmichael's no rock star.
She's not even famous and she doesn't particularly like musicians, but when a boy from her childhood reconnects unexpectedly, her life is put on hold.

With opposing lifestyles and conflicted feelings for the special boy she used to know and the sexy-as-sin man Kane is now, will she ever find common ground?

Strangers as adults with a strong childhood bond, Josie and Kane's world becomes closer than either of them could ever have fathomed.

This brings emotional challenges beyond anything they could ever prepare for, or have imagined.

I'm conflicted about this book. I definitely liked it better than ACoTaR, but ACoMaF was so incredible that I had high expectations for the third book, and some parts of it just fell flat.

The first bit pacing is a bit slow, but picks up. There were times I felt the writing was a bit cheesy and/or melodramatic, and at times repetitive. For the second book, there was a lot of sexual tension, but in this book it just seems like excessive sexy times since they're already together. A lot of the plot felt forced.

Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed reading this book! But it definitely felt more like a "guilty pleasure" read.

Military romance seems to be my favourite thing to read at the moment. I love sexy alpha males and hot 'hold their own' heroines and this book does not disappoint. I enjoyed the technical details that seem to bring a scene to life and there's no shortage of steamy bits too. This fast became a book I couldn't put down.

Only one issue I had with this book and that was the phrase 'flaming fish balls' , once or twice I could have handled but it's constantly cropping up, I thought it was because the author wanted a substitute for the 'F word' , nope, I was wrong because ' f''king flaming fish balls' was in it too. This did detract from my enjoyment and so I give this book a 3.5 Stars instead of a 4. I would certainly read others by this author and I would recommend this book.

3.5 Stars

I put off reading this book at first because I just knew I wouldn't be able to put it down!? If you've read any of Aleatha's books, you know exactly what I mean... and as expected, not one chapter in and I was hooked. It was everything you would expect from one of Aleatha's books... Alexandria (Alex aka Chari) takes one weeks vacation away to be the risk-taking, brave girl she never is.. only to meet the mysterious, commanding and sexy as hell, Nox. One week.. no names, no history, no future, nothing more.... could you do it? Could you walk away from the best week of your life and never look back? One day read! My GOD I can't wait for the next book!? Left on a cliffhanger and am so excited to have FOUR more coming in the future! Can't wait for more Nox & Charli!
