Deadlocked

Deadlocked (Sookie Stackhouse, #12)Deadlocked by Charlaine Harris
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I love this series. Considering that this is the 2nd to last book it was a great beginning to the end. If it wasn't for that I would have said Charlaine could have done better. If you are a fan you will enjoy the set up for the final installment.

A Hunger so Wild

A Hunger So Wild (Renegade Angels, #2)A Hunger So Wild by Sylvia Day
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. I have been waiting for Elijah and Vash's story since A Touch of Crimson and it was really hot. I can't wait to see what happens in this series.

I knew these two were meant to be the moment that the were on the same page together in A Touch of Crimson and I have been waiting as patiently as possible to see how their romance was going to unfurl. I am glad to say that I was not disappointed. Sylvia Day is one of the most talented writers in the game right now as attested to the fact that I am also currently waiting for the next book in her Crossfire series also.

Aside from the romance it answered a lot of questions that were left unanswered and left more questions to keep you wondering until the next book. I can't wait to see who the culprits are and how both sides are going to handle it.

Consent to LoveConsent to Love by Abby Wood
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I had never heard of Abby Wood until I read this book. I am glad that I know of her now. I enjoyed this book very much, when at first I thought I was going to hate or at least dislike it. When first meeting Ana I thought she was a push over and very naive. I thought Kane was a hypocrite. I was about to put it down and wash my hands with it. I am gladed that I stuck with it.

There has never been two people who belong together more. Kane and Ana were two halves of a whole. I loved that they finally opened up to how they were both feeling. It felt like I could actually feel their emotions right along with them. I felt the same way for the authors description of the love scenes.

When I finished I was hoping there was more. I am going to be looking for more stories by this very talented author in the future,

The White Swan Affair

The White Swan AffairThe White Swan Affair by Elyse Mady
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I really wanted to love this story. I tried very hard. It had the perfect plot and it dealt with an issue(sodomy) that I have never seen another book quite this way. The way everyone treated Hester after Robert's arrest seemed true to form for that period of time. I loved Thomas and how he stuck by her through it all. The thing that kept me from loving it was Robert. He was a judgemental jerk of the first water. Whenever there was a scene in the book with him in it, especially while dealing with Hester, I wanted to skip ahead. I hated the way he treated her and talked down to her. She would never have been in the situation she was in if it wasn't for him.

Anyway, all that being said I didn't love it, but overall I thought it was very well written and maybe the way I felt about Robert at times is the way the author intended readers to fill. All I can say is you will have to read it for your self and see how it make you feel. The fact that I feel so strongly about his behavior in anyway lets me know that I will be reading future works by this author.

I know that my statements seem to contradict one another,but I enjoy reading books that make me feel passionately about something rather in a good way or bad. It means the writer is doing their job.
