Since I was a little girl, I’ve made up stories. I would lay in my bed at night and before I knew what a trope was, I would make up these trope filled stories. Boy sees girl, boys falls for girl, boy saves girl….happily ever after. As I got older, the stories turned steamier and more intricate, but the basics never changed.

Now, my books are still full of romance but the naughty bits are naughtier, my hero’s are obsessed alpha types and my heroines are quirky, real women who come in all shapes and sizes.

So, sit back, banish the real world and get lost in some over the top romance with a heaping helping of hot. xoxoxo

1 WHAT THE FUNK IS THAT STAR

This review may offend some people.
I am warning all NOT to read any further if you are sensitive to the retelling of sexual acts. This book is full of sexual acts so in order to effectively review it I must discuss these topics.
I apologize if this offends anyone. It was not my intention.

Also, I feels it is important that the reader should be aware that the story and time line was very very hard to follow. The reader is pushed from one moment in time to another without any prior warning.

Thanks and happy reading!


NOW for those who want the dish, here it is.


This is one of those books I should have NOT finished reading. It did NOT IMPROVE beyond the first trigger here.

description

I think I would have gotten over that if the hero did not say the exact same thing to her the first time they have sex and he wants her to take his "load!" And this was his way of having safe sex here.
NO WORDS HERE JUST GROSS!

description

So THEIR relationship starts down the pathetic path into his BDSM WITH A DADDY LITTLE GIRL KINK. Don't even touch how a virgin puts up with all the toys and anal sex that he has going on here.

Now we have the fail LOVE control story in which everything deserves a punishment and he was more than happy to hand it out!
GOOD GOD DID THIS BOOK SUCK!
It was about as sexy as Frosty the Snowman for me.

description

I mean honestly the amount of times he would make her take his "cum in her mouth and show it to him" was just too much.
It was like a bad cheesy porno with him doing more and more things to make her be his BABY GIRL. I think he came inside of her once or maybe twice and that was just to get her pregnant so he could further control her.
At this point I was going GROSS!
His no condoms practices and withdraws method are huge triggers for me.
I was beyond this bull at this point!
In the end I was left feeling only this...

description

SAFETY AND CONTENT ALERTS/TRIGGERS: well it's safe from cheating and little to no OW/OM drama (but the hero thinks she is into her other step-brother even the step-dad is wanting in here), no safe sex or condoms, attempted child molestation, dubious consent, spanking, punishment, anal, toys (butt plugs and others).

In conclusion this book was NOT FOR ME!

~ S P O I L E R S ~

♦️BOOK: Standalone. Extra long. Kindle loc: 6990

♦️WRITING: Confusing. Extremely wordy, overly detailed and long-winded. Time jumps forward and back without warning. Excessive use of metaphors.

♦️EDITING: minor errors found - missing/incorrect words/punctuation

♦️POV: dual alternating third person. POV change sporadically & without warning

♦️HERO: Cameron Cobain, 28--Fighter. Meticulously, obsessively neat & clean. Buzzed onyx hair, ice blue eyes, tattooed arms and upper body, monster cock, 6'5. Manwhore. Animalistic, unpredictable, rough, dangerous, serious, brooding. Fierce, soulless fighter. Very sexual, demanding, alpha with daddy issues. Has been obsessed with and protected Victoria since they were children - he's literally CRAZY over her, like insane.

"What he felt for her flew somewhere between mad obsession and paternal commitment....she had no fucking idea just how consuming he would be in her life."

"She needed his hand, his guidance, his promise to protect and care for her like no one ever had before. She needed to know just what it meant to be owned."

♦️HEROINE: Victoria, 22--Photographer. Works at her father's fighting gym. Virgin. Has ivory skin, brown eyes, chestnut hair. BBW with self-confidence issues. Weak, pushover.

♦️PLOT: Cameron is a psychopath. Victoria is a doormat. They used to be step siblings and Cam is totally obsessed with Victoria. He finally makes her his, lays down the law and they have lotsa crazy sex.

♦️WHAT WORKED:
➖realistic characters - Cameron has a chipped front tooth, crooked nose, scars. they aren't wealthy.

♦️WHAT DID NOT WORK:
➖Way. Too. Long.
➖H has sex scene with OW - H hate-fucks other women bc they aren't the h
➖H is OTT bossy, jealous, dominate, controlling (and not in a hot, sexy way). Vic finally gives in to sex with Cameron, he believes he owns her and there are now rules she must follow or be punished (*abused*)

"That desire to bite and leave his mark was new, but with her, it was instinct and she needed to get used to it because he intended to leave his marks all over her for the world to see. Sure, she was going to fight him if he decided to welt her somewhere she couldn’t cover up with clothes, but he didn’t give a shit."

➖way too much “Daddy” & “Babygirl”
➖Victoria's hair & eyes were described repeatedly...and differently. her hair was described as sable, chestnut, copper, caramel, shadowed bronze
➖ideas/inner monologues repeated over and over

Did I Teleport Into An Episode Of Lost?

http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm... width="250" height="300" alt="description"/>

It's a bit difficult to follow the author's pace in the book, especially the timeline and scene jumps.

Take the first 8% as an example...

The MC is fighting in the opening scene.

The fighting scene abruptly just stops and then he's describing his hook up for the night.

The hook up ends, he has an angry tirade with himself, and then *bam* he's back to a fight night several weeks later back in his home town.

Kapow, the fight scene stops mid-stride and suddenly we are sitting at an effing Thanksgiving meal with him; his dad; his brother, Asher; and Victoria, the object of his obsession that's kinda-sorta his step-sister.

Thanksgiving scene ends and we're at his dad's gym where the Thanksgiving scene from the previous chapter hasn't even f'ing happened yet.

I'm trying, man am I trying. But, by 15%, we've skipped back and forth from past to present at least three more times.

It's big, jerky scene jumps back and forth in time and place without enough transition details to smooth it out.

description

Add to these jumps that nearly every plot point is unreasonably vague, and this book might as well be written in a foreign language.

He's mad at her... And?
He's angry... And?
He feels betrayed... And?
He wants her like air... And?

What? What's the point? What about it? Spit it out? This isn't suspense; this is someone that can't complete a fucking thought!

Uhm, WTF Are You Talking About, Dude?!?

This dude talks in fucking riddles that makes my brain want to nosedive into a bottle of Crown Royal and pray for a drowning.

"Only, winning meant losing. And losing meant winning. Nothing was right.


Ooookay.

"That night was the beginning and the end, and she was at the center of it all.


Oooookay.

VICTORIA IS AWESOME...

description

Cameron is f'ing some cage ho & has to imagine it's her (Victoria) to get off. Afterwards, he has an extensive bipolar inner monologue about her ...

"He imagined her face, how she would feel, how it might mean something with her. Only, this time it was different. He felt her slipping away, her image fading with each passing day and each nameless Trixie he fucked. Never again. NEVER AGAIN. NEVER AGAIN. NEVER AGAIN. NEVER AGAIN. NEVER AGAIN."


"Why the fuck did you make her your goddamn reason for living for damn near two decades just to run away and hate-fuck every bitch you could find?"


NO, WAIT, VICTORIA IS SHIT...

description

The author leaves the above scene and goes straight to weeks later where he and Victoria are face to face. Now, she's suddenly a piece of shit?!?

He didn't want her at the fight.

"Cameron shook his head, trying to block out the reminder of betrayal (Victoria) that sat staring at him from the second row."


Fight vanishes into thin fucking air and now we are transported to Thanksgiving meal.

"It was having to sit here and try to keep the top of his head from blowing off because she was sitting right across from him."

"She fucked it up; she crossed the line. There was no going back, and Cameron floundered, lost somewhere between how things were and a lifetime of how he dreamed they could be."

"She didn't keep her end of the bargain."

"She didn't understand that she was no longer just one person; she was not a separate entity. She belonged to him and nothing short of his death would ever end the pain he felt when he looked into her brown eyes."

"She needed to go, now, or he would hurt her and he wasn't in any condition for restraint."


There's some vague misunderstanding about her and his brother. Who knows wtf that's about.

This inner monologue of how awful she is mixed with how she makes his cock spring to life eventually escalates to him punching the door right beside her head and demanding she leave the Thanksgiving meal that she cooked for his family.

NOPE, VICTORIA IS THE SHIT!!!

description

Next thing you know their both at the gym in a teleport before thanksgiving, but after he returned home, and he's pushing her to admit she wants him as she's insisting he is family and has too many anger issues to be with anyway. Not a damn word about all this betrayal shit; no, he wants her at the moment.

So, I have no idea what Cam is talking about half the time and the other half he is contradicting himself between this chick being a horrible betrayer and the love of his f'ing life.

I Can't Take No Mo

Bipolar time jumps through the storyline.

Female MC love interest that calls the male MC brother and his father "dad."

Riddles, riddles, vague shit, more riddles, inner monologues that Mike Tyson would be ashamed of, more riddles, more vague shit, some more riddles, riddles disguised as monologues, vague shit wearing bunny costumes...

Male MC alternating between wanting to physically hurt the female MC and fuck her.

Male MC that can't go an entire paragraph without referring to his cock.

Yeah, I tried, but holy hell this was what I'd imagine if a group of psychiatric patients were asked to come up with a romance novel.

Will I Read More Books By This Author: Yes

This was my first exposure to author Dani (DD) Wyatt, and I really enjoyed the story. It features the ubiquitous taboo stepbrother trope, but it is done within a unique plot and I give Ms. Wyatt props for her originality there.

It starts out kind of confusing as the time jumps around...early October, to Thanksgiving, and then the bulk of the story begins in late October/early November. This was really confusing because there is no explanation of the time and when Victoria refers to the first of the month, I thought it was December, when it really backtracked to November 1st. Once I caught on to this fact, the story make a lot more sense. Readers, beware of this going in and it will make this long story less confusing in the beginning.

Cameron is an uber-alpha male with a very short fuse that can make him appear somewhat immature (ok, at times he's an outright ass!), but underlying it all is his obsessive love for Victoria, and I can't fault him for that. I really connected with Victoria and how she handled everyone from Cameron and Asher, to her two fathers. I also liked the blue-collar atmosphere where everyone was just trying to make ends meet. All the characters were flawed, but that made them more human and likable overall.

If you're looking for something a little different that pushes the boundaries of civilized behavior, this is a book worth picking up. It's full of interesting characters with realistic motivations and a whole lot of kinky lovin'.

This book kind of confused me in the beginning. We get a glimpse at a period of time in the prologue and then Chapter 1 takes place several months earlier. I had a hard time following past and present timelines in this book and that took away from it for me. Cameron and Victoria begin this book at lunch during Thanksgiving in the throes of a disagreement. It takes most of the book to find out what this disagreement stems from. Cameron is known for leaving when things get tough and he really does it throughout the book. Victoria is a doormat to almost everyone in her life, Cameron being no different. He looks out for her but expects her to follow his every command. I had a hard time feeling any sympathy for Victoria because, time and time again, she let others treat her like crap and put their needs ahead of her own. Even when faced with the unthinkable in order to save her two "fathers" she doesn't speak up for herself. She tries to hide the whole situation from Cameron and doesn't take any responsibility for letting them use her like this. Cameron knows he has a long way to go to get her to understand her real worth, but he goes about it so wrong in my opinion. Their sex scenes were a little too much for me at times and the fact that he constantly felt the need to punish her to show her he was her "Daddy" did not make me feel any love or understanding for either one of them. Having another tyrant in her life should have had Victoria running for the hills and not trying to do anything to please him. Was not my favorite couple at all.

Fun Book w/ an OTT alpha H. Some kinky sex thrown in. There is a lot of sex in this book mixed in w/ some plot. No sex sharing or cheating. There is definite love between H/h.

I forgot to add I loved the H's 2 Pitt Bulls. Such Sweeties. I love my Pitt Bulls.

To get only one star takes some merit... A unique combination of repetitive writing, confusing time frames (in the first portion), tacky phrases, crass-and-not-hot language, and a poor story arc.

Add to all that a hero that's a certified violent felon, with psychotic outbreakes and uncontrolled rage; I was rooting for the girl to run the other way. I hate it when these intense over-the-top guys keep saying they are a girl's safe place and they bail out at the first missunderstanding or bump on the road, as if they were really fragile china princesses. Also, this guy was not only rugged, but actually kind of slow, which maybe could have been cute, if it wasn't for the serious anger management issue -- that was not cute or hot or fun, it was dangerous, irrational and uncomfortable to read.

The story itself was ok, not original or special, it was the execution which made it tough to read through it.

The book was filled with hot scenes, some better than others. The weird thing was that from his POV it was quite clear that while saying he cared and treasured the girl, this guy kept selfishly pushing for whatever he wanted and telling her "this is how this is gonna go from now on", and being turned on with the idea of actually hurting her (wtf? There are other genres in romance for that).

I was surprised because I have liked other more recent books by this author; this one was clearly not for me... And maybe I have to contextualize it as a writing experiment or something of the sort.

This one, I would not recommend.

3.5 out of 5 stars.

Cameron was one, HOT alpha! And I love the fact that Victoria was plus size and he loved every single inch of her. However, what scaled my rating back a bit was too much repetition and Victoria was such a doormat when it came to her abusive father that even I felt Cameron's frustration with her. And maybe I missed it, but where did the flowers come from? Cameron flips out when he sees flowers sitting on her desk with a message along the lines of, "one night" (can't remember the exact words) but when they have their epic blow up and later heart to heart, I don't think the author reveals who sent the flowers to Victoria.

Despite those things, I would recommend FORCE to those who love the ultimate alpha male. Cameron is seriously not for the faint of heart!

This book came out of left field. I read the synopsis somewhere, somehow and the next thing I knew I was knee deep in it! The writing was a bit choppy for me. At first it was hard for me to figure out what's what, BUT I could not give up! I love a total, uber, alpha-male and Cameron was it. I'm glad I stuck it out, as the story definitely intrigued me. The sex scenes in this book were pretty smut-tastic too! So even with the choppy writing and rough patches throughout, I still enjoyed it and would be interested in reading more of this author's work! Honestly, it makes me want to read another domineering, alpha type H book!

This one was hard for me to finish. The various descriptions used for Cameron's penis just about done me in:

Iron Rod
Savage Beast
Beast Cock
Granite Shaft
Rod stiff dick

"I've got a heat-seeking missile in my pants, and your the damn heat"

"He always knew he was a f**k machine, a filthy demanding sex beast..."
"...screaming for a damn spinal block to sever the pain"

Honestly, I could not make this up!

What is going on in this story? The H and h don't like each other and have no chemistry. The H seems to hate the h but claims to really want her. There are so many characters that I am utterly lost. Who is who? I have no patience for this mess.

Not sure about this one

I love dark romances and total alpha males. But I had a hard time with this one. I really did not like Cameron and it took me forever to read this book. I usually can read a good book within 2days. This one took longer because the conversations were very repetitive. You have a couple of pages with Cameron telling Victoria that she is his and she needs to understand that. This was stated over and over again. It got old. Cameron seemed like he was very unintelligent. The language he used did not bother me. I basically did not like the book. I would not waste my time with this one.

Holy fuck did this have typos! I almost stopped reading after the first few pages because of that, but I pushed through. This was a bit of a mess, but in that mess, there was something that kept me reading. I don't even like BDSM type books, but this crazy H worked for me---up to a point, then he got repetitive and boring. I thought everything wrapped up way too nice and neat to be in any way believable, which really annoyed me. By the end, I didn't even care to read the last chapter and epilogue. And did I mention the typos?! I don't think I'll be reading anything else by this author.

Awful absolutely awful

It has potential to be a good book but it is so wordy I can't follow it. It jumps from past to present randomly and the inner monologues go on so long I lose interest. I made it five chapters in before I gave up. Other have talked about great love scenes etc but in my mind it's not worth it if you can't even get through the basic character building. I will never read another book by this author again. Waste of time and money.

Every bad girl needs to have a Force like Cameron! That being said the book itself has an awesome story line and very strong characters. If you love those Alpha Bad Boys with a dirty mouth, who knows how to use it, and let's be honest who doesn't love them when they're like that, then this book is DEFINITELY for you!!!!

I was a bit confused in the beginning but as I kept reading, I started to really enjoy the whole storyline. I love an alpha male and a woman who can keep up. The family dynamic for Cameron and Victoria was very complicated but also gave the story grit. All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

This book was ATROCIOUS! It’s straight garbage!

Besides the grammar and editing issues it was written in both male and female POV’s but you never knew which it was in any given paragraph. Sometimes it was both in the same paragraph!!

The the metaphors were over the top and way too often. The author wrote “He smelled like a wolf coming for the sheep”. Seriously WHAT does that mean?!?! At the very least, that just sounds nasty!! Smdh. That is just one of a couple hundred in this book that makes me wonder if the author was stoned when this was written!

The female lead was a weak excuse for a woman let alone a love interest. The male lead was a psycho with a side of bipolar. It’s one thing to write a male lead as an Uber alpha male but this dude was not sane. And therefore not attractive.

Let’s not forget the dads! Omg. They were written like straight trash fathers who’s kids should have been taken by the state but the author had the NERVE to make them into nice old men in the last 2 chapters! That is not possible! They both almost killed one son in a crap fight and were about to sell the female lead (daughter) to pay back gambling debts!! AND the male lead accused one dad of killing his mother!

I mean, my god, where was the justification for redeeming them?? No where, that’s where. It was simply added to feed the HEA the characters didn’t earn and this book did not warrant. It was a dragged out mess with unlikable and unrealistic characters and plot premise. This book needs an entire rewrite and really should be pulled from amazon. It’s straight garbage!

I will not write off this author because I have read some of her other works and they are very interesting and don’t have any of the issues this book has. I am annoyed that I’m having trouble getting the book “Baby” in any way other than by joining her book club. Why can’t this book be published like normal?!? Smh. I’ll pay for it! I don’t need it for free I just want to read it!!! 😑

How appropriate the title for this book is because I had to force myself to concentrate on the story. I hope Force is a Dani Wyatt's debut novel (I loved/liked her other ones)—the story had so many flaws, I'll just name a few biggest ones:
1) It was too long for its good. There were moments I seriously considered not finishing this book. And that says a lot!
2) Half of all characters were either annoying, stupid or boring.
3) Unpredictable scene jumps were confusing and made it really hard to follow the story. Not to mention all those flashbacks that just usually appeared out of nowhere.
4) The whole story felt like the author was afraid of failure so she chose to appeal to large masses of potential readers with the taboo, kink, sexual abuse, alcoholism, fighting, loan sharks and so on and on and on. You had to get a sieve to find the story that truly mattered.
