Never Ever
Maggie McKenzie loves bad boys. The more tattoos and piercings the better. She never dates perfect, pretty boys like Caden Callahan. They’re boring as hell. But one night, Caden is a very bad boy indeed, and she wants him. Oh hell. She wants him more than anything in the world, and she’ll stop at nothing to get him.
Caden Callahan has always fought the inner demons lurking within him. He’s managed to keep a low profile until now. For some reason, Maggie brings out all the darkness in him…the darkness he desperately tries to tame. He wants Maggie, but he won’t give in to her until she gives him what he wants: a relationship.
And that is never, ever going to happen.

I loved Maggie she's one of those people who doesn't hold back what she's thinking, "let me get this straight. You just jacked off in my bathroom while I was standing there watching...and now you're going to go?" Also if she likes something she's going to let you know, "and when I sprang free, I heard her moan. "So effing big," she said, reaching into the middle console, pulling out a condom and rolling it onto me. Just the feel of her fingers touching me nearly made me come." She also let's you know what activities you'll be doing at night, "his arms wrapped around me, pulling me against his warm skin. "If you think you're going to be sleeping at all tonight, you're wrong," I said softly, my hands trailing across his stomach." I think I liked Caden and Maggie's story more than Damien's and I really hope Jonathon gets a story because I loved him hardcore.

Maggie and Caden's book was a little too YA for me. It was downright raunchy in parts and did nothing for me. Maggie's character came across as juvenile and just interested in sex and nothing else. Caden repressed his feelings and put a mask on for the world. Their relationship was rocky at best and I did not feel all warm and fuzzy when they got together. It was not my cup of tea, but it may be all right for someone else.

Annie Green surprend avec ce roman sans prétention, qui prend des schémas et des idées connues mais avec une remarquable efficacité. Ce n’est pas le roman du siècle et ce n’est pas la plume la plus délicate mais cela fonctionne très bien.
Ce roman est le second d’une série et cela se sent lorsque nous découvrons un couple déjà constitué et tout un groupe de copains avec des histoires d’amour plus ou moins avancées. Il y aura une suite et nous pouvons donc déjà dire avec qui.
L’histoire est centrée autour d’un couple qui prend un peu les intrigues traditionnelles à contrepied. Ici, l’héroïne est la bad girl, du moins en apparence. Elle est tatouée, a une libido hyper active et ne fait pas dans la relation sentimentale durable. Elle a repéré depuis un moment le gentil garçon du groupe, un jeune homme qui s’occupe de sa petite sœur et n’est pas pour elle de façon évidente. L’astuce est que Maggie n’est pas aussi audacieuse qu’on le dit et que Caden n’est certainement pas un ennuyeux jeune homme propre sur lui. Il va lui démontrer dès le début du roman dans une scène très sexy. A partir de l’à, l’enjeu va devenir leur relation elle-même. Caden veut-il une histoire sans lendemain avec cette bad girl qui le fait fantasmer ? Maggie peut-elle changer de méthode et accepter une relation plus longue ?
Cela n’a rien d’original mais c’est mené tambour battant, rythmé par des scènes de sexe culottés et une tension savamment entretenue quand les deux héros ne cèdent pas à leurs pulsions. L’auteure prend la peine de travailler la personnalité de ses personnages, de leur donner un passé intéressant qui les rend assez incompatibles mais la romance a ce pouvoir de transcender les difficultés. La romance sexy devient donc touchante par moment et plus profonde qu’il ne peut y paraître au départ.
Le tout se déroule dans une atmosphère elle aussi très connue dans la romance NA, celle des groupes de rocks, des étudiants et leurs petits boulots.
Annie Green a un potentiel certain mais, pour le moment, se contente de reprendre ce que d’autres ont initié avant elle. D’autres romans suivront donc dans cette série, ils semblent suivre le même genre d’intrigues mais ne boudons pas notre plaisir, cela fonctionne et c’est très plaisant.

I saw this book and it looked really interesting. Then I realized that it was part of a series and there was a book before this one. I bought both books but I still read this one first considering you don't have to read this book second to understand what is happening.
Maggie McKenzie is a very talented pianist that is studying at a special college for it. She loves to play Classical Music but she does not look like she fits that type at all. Maggie has alot of tattoos on her body and dresses pretty revealing to show off her attributes. Her parents are still together but it is questionable if they still love one another. Maggie's father is a Tattoo Artist and her mother went against her own father (Maggie's grandfather) to be with him. For 19 years, her grandfather had no interest in seeing or getting to know his granddaughter Maggie. Caden Callahan appears to be a really good guy but he has dark secrets and what he believes to be dark urges. He feels that he needs to keep himself in control and not let these urges get out of control. He has a younger sister that he takes care of and tries to protect from the system and his mother. His mother is a druggie who has disappeared for weeks now. Maggie loves bad boys, especially ones that have tattoos and act like it. Caden does not have any tattoos but then he saves her and shows that there is more to him than how he appears and acts sometimes. Caden wants Maggie but he wants her to commit to a relationship with him, not just hook up with him for a short time and then go on her merry way. Maggie does not believe in relationships after seeing what became of her parents love. So they play a game to see who will give in - will Caden win and they enter a relationship or will Maggie win and they just have no strings sex.
This is a very good story and definitely worth the read. I will be reading the first book with Damien and Temperance.

I'm a big fan of this book and the other book in the series, Never Enough. I love the characters. The stories feel realistic and not overly dramatic. Can't wait for the next book!
