DAMIAN
Meet Damian Castillo. The man, the legend, the heartbreaker. As a self-proclaimed man-whore, Damian doesn’t believe in love or commitment. In fact, he can’t remember the last time he’s had feeling for a woman that went beyond hot, no-strings-attached sex. The only things he cares about are his bar, his appearance, and his needs.

But then he meets Alexis.

Meet Alexis Blythe. A small town girl that has lost a lot of love in her life. Wanting to leave her past behind her, she moves to San Francisco looking for a big change. Yet, despite everything she’s gone through, she still believes in true love.

But then she meets Damian.

When Alexis shows up into his life, Damian’s caught by surprise. She’s different. She’s sweet, innocent, and feisty. But above all, this woman didn’t respond to his charm and piercing-blue eyes the way every other woman did. To Damian, she’s his ultimate challenge.

Could Alexis be the girl that will break through Damian’s wall of perpetual bachelorhood without getting hurt? Or will Damian remain true his ways and break Alexis’s heart and her hopes of true love?

TAMING DAMIAN
She destroyed me. Can I still love her?

Damian Castillo is the man, the legend, the heartbreaker--the self-proclaimed man-whore that doesn't believe in love or commitment. That is until he meets Alexis Blythe--the innocent, strong-willed small town girl who didn't immediately give into Damian's charm. With Alexis, Damian sees something more than just hot, no-strings-attached sex, and against his inner resistance, he gives into his feelings for her.

But just when their relationship begins to bloom, something unexpected threatens to break them apart. Will Damian leave Alexis and go back to his playboy ways and break yet another heart? Or will Damian's love for Alexis be strong enough to convince him to stay and fight for a woman that's like no other he's ever met before?

THE HEARTBREAKER - PREQUEL NOVELLA

Meet Damian Castillo. The man, the legend, the heartbreaker.

The only thing that matters in his world is his “little black book”: his large black shoebox filled with hundreds of phone numbers from the nameless women in his life. He knows what he mind-blowing, no-strings-attached sex. And as the hottest bartender in San Francisco, he never has a problem getting exactly what he wants when he wants it.

But sleeping with every hot woman that throws herself at him can sometimes lead to unexpected problems, and Damian discovers this when he finds himself caught in the middle of his two recent conquests. Will his manwhore ways get him into more trouble than he can handle, or will this heartbreaker manage to get out unscathed?

Jessica Wood writes contemporary romance.

While she has lived in countless cities throughout the U.S., her heart belongs to San Francisco. To her, there’s something seductively romantic about the Golden Gate Bridge, the steep rolling hills of the city streets, the cable cars, and the Victorian-style architecture.

She loves a strong, masculine man with a witty personality. While she is headstrong and extremely independent, she can’t resist a man who takes control of the relationship, both outside and inside of the bedroom.

She loves to travel internationally, and tries to plan a yearly trip abroad. She also loves to cook and bake, and—to the benefit of her friends—she loves to share. She also enjoys ceramics and being creative with her hands. She has a weakness for good (maybe bad) TV shows; she’s up-to-date on over 25 current shows, and no, that wasn’t a joke.

And it goes without saying, she loves books—they’re like old and dear friends who have always been there to make her laugh and make her cry.

The one thing she wished she had more of is time.

I loved this series. Jessica Wood did an amazing job at writing a character that is a player but is someone that in the end you can fall in love with. In the series you go from not liking the things that Damien does to absolutely loving him. Jessica Wood is an amazing writer and I absolutely love all of her work. This is a must read series.

"Gag me with a spoon..."

What would have made The Heartbreaker Series: Complete Box Set better?

I can't decide. Perhaps its the fact that this is 90% from a male's POV and the narrator is female. I couldn't get through it.

What could Jessica Wood have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

The writing isn't TOO bad, but i found myself cringing at the narrator's voice and I couldn't concentrate on the words.

What didn’t you like about Lynn Barrington’s performance?

I didn't like that she was the narrator for a male's POV. it just doesn't make sense. She's tolerable as the leading girl.

What character would you cut from The Heartbreaker Series: Complete Box Set?

I'd shred the whole recording and start over. Sebastian York? Christian Fox? Jason Carpenter? ANY male narrator..pleaseeeeee...

I like the first 2 parts of the story but the last, Taming Damian, flipped the story on its head and became a whole different one. The original set up was bad boy/playboy meets good girl and they "fix" each other but the last book finds our two primary characters dealing with real life issues and neither have the emotional capacity to deal with it. They fight, the fuck, they fight, they try to hurt each other all while saying "I love you, I can't live without you." Uggggggg save me from immature main characters with whiney internal dialog.
