I am a little disappointed with this as I find it a bit dull and uninspiring also just not what I expect from M S Parker, maybe the next episode will bring more interest into the storyline. Each episode so far has been very short and has had no substance to it. Very disapointing.
Collide Vol. 2 (Club Prive Series Book #10) by M.S. Parker. Bryne Dawkins meets tattooed Bad Boy, Dax Prevot and their chemistry instantly ignites- but what will her Uncle Gavin, owner of Club Prive, have to say about that? This is part of the Club Privé world.
This is the followup to part 1 in the Collide series. It picks up where book 1 left off. Bryne, 19 years old thinks she knows everything that goes on in the world but really doesn’t. Having lost her virginity in a supposed one night stand to this sexy hot guy. She told him it was only for sex but really she fell for him. Byrne is wanting to be an actress and while in New York so far, she has lost her virginity, been to a sex club, and gotten a lead in a great new play.

He refuses to talk about his life and keeps himself locked up tight, all he wants is the sex, the hot, pulse pounding, mind blowing sex. He has secrets-secrets he keeps from Bryne and his mother. There were many twists and turns in this story which kept me wondering how Bryne would handle Dax and would Dax finally show her more affection or would be just go away and then there is the cliffhanger ending leaves me needing to know what happened- OMG need book 3 like now!
My rating: 4.5 stars **** **I was given an ARC by the author in exchange for an honest review***
Bryne, 19 years old and thinks she wise to the way of the world. Finally losing her virginity to a one night stand, who's not interested in anything pass in the moment sex and yes Bryne, played the I don't want a relationship, we can be friends card. After a few days of not seeing or hearing from Dax, she tracks him down to the shop she met him and he treats her like trash in front of his friends. Leaving Bryne, in tears. Dax, has never been interested in a relationship with a woman, he's always been about having sex and moving on. Sometimes he went back for seconds, but that was it. Dax, took care of business and when he was done he got up, got dressed and left with a see you around. Dax, liked Bryne, more than the others, but since he lost his second job for treating her poorly he had to spend more time at the automotive shop, which was an unsavoury business and he didn't want them knowing about Bryne, so he pushed her away, but seeked her out every few days for....SEX.
I have never been disappointed by anything MS Parker has written and this book is no different, it was absolutely amazing.
Book two kind of back tracks a little from where book one left off, but got Dax's point of view and then we pick right back up with where book two left off when we switch to Bryne's chapter.
I really love how Dax tries to resist how he feels towards Bryne, when you have an alpha male finally decides to go after what he wants there is no stopping him, and that's exactly what happens when Dax decides he wants Bryne. But what will happen when Dax's life gets in the way and the exes that come with his baggage??
Loved this book and the cliff hanger ending that MS Parker leaves us with will leave you wanting more.
I honestly had no idea what to expect when I picked up this next book as honestly it’s not everyday you get warned off by this random stranger. I do love M.S. Parker’s books however what I’ve seemed to have noticed when it comes to reading a series is that all the twists and turns seem to happen when you get to the very end and whilst I love the surprise of what happens I feel that it would be good to have a few turns and shocks throughout the book to keep you on your toes. Other than that I did enjoy the story, I liked how Bryne was such a strong character who could stand up for herself. I love the chemistry between Dax and Bryne because it was something that neither of them had experienced before, however I can’t wait to see what else is in store for both of them.
Collide continues in Volume 2. Who's the woman who confronted Bryne and who is she to Dax? Dax can't stop thinking about Bryne. Why is she so different than any other woman he's been with? He can't stay away, but when something comes up that will put her in danger, Dax needs to decide what's best. Bryne is trying not to think there's more to their relationship than just friends with benefits. But simetimes Dax makes it hard. Cliffhanger alert. This is part 2 of a multiple volume series. M.S. Parker is a fantastic writer. She knows how to get the reader to have the feels. Emotions and a bit of suspense will suck you in. I absolutely loved this book and can't wait for the next volume.
Received this complimentary arc copy from the author for an honest review Oh Dax, I don't think you are really a bad boy deep down but you do have secrets. Keeping secrets from Bryne and his mother are not a good thing. They always get found out in the end. Bryne can't decide if being with Dax is a good thing or not. Who is this crazy woman threatening her about Dax . Plus he keeps disappearing. Good job she has a friend in Todd. Then Dax disappears again, he must have something to hide. If Bryne only knew. Dax needs to protect her more than ever from the mysterious Booker. Oh my, all these secrets, phew , just gets better and better.
"I'd been in New York City for about a week, and I'd already snuck into a sex club, lost my virginity, got the lead in my first off-Broadway play, and been threatened over a guy." Sounds like a great book doesn't it and let me tell you it is.
M.S Parker knows how to write about alpha men and the strong woman they fall in love with. Excellent writing and a story that twists and turns and keeps the reader enthralled until the end.
"He encouraged me to explore, to talk about the things I wanted. Nothing was off-limits, nothing too intense."
Waiting for the Vol. 3 patiently, tapping my foot, this book was gifted by the author for an honest review.
M S Parker is such an amazing author. You can never tell how her stories are going to go. Dax has tried to keep on the straight and narrow. He is struggling financially an with his mum to take care of . His choices are limited. The girl who threatened Bryne was from Dax past. Cleo she is going to be trouble, especially as she works for Dax's boss Booker. Sucked further into the shady world of crime by Booker. He needs to distance himself from those he loves. Bryne doesn't know about any of this. Then Dax goes missing. I need book three now!
After being warned to stay away from Dax, Bryne is still trying to understand her attraction towards him. Knowing she should focus on establishing her career, thoughts stray back to Dax. Dax, too is dealing with his own struggles, trying to convince himself that his attraction to Bryne isn't anything serious. But when a "friend" attempts to threaten her in order to manipulate him, Dax decides that in order to keep Bryne out of harms way, it's best to stay away from her.
Loving these books so far! I can't wait to see how their story continues to unfold.
Dax can't stop thinking about Bryne, he's never felt this way about anyone woman before but Dax is in serious trouble. Bryne can't stop thinking about Dax and when a woman claiming that Dax is her's she don't know what to believe. Not wanting a relationship both Dax & Byrne can't get each other out of their heads. Dax is hiding something from Bryne that could put her in harms way. Can't wait to see what happens next.
I received this book in exchange for an honest review
Dax and Bryne are drawn to each other. The sex is primal and hot. They cannot keep away from each other. Neither want a relationship. Bryne is interested in her career as an actress. Dax is a non-relationship kind of guy. Are they friends with benefits or is it something else? Who is Cleo and why did she threaten Bryne? Will what Dax is about to do threaten Bryne or his mom?
Looking forward to book 3. Not for anyone under age 18.
Byrne knows she should stay away from Dax, but how do you do that when the bad boy tattooed mechanic pulls at all your strings? When Dax is confronted about helping on a drug buy will be go thru with it for the money to help his mom and risk what he has going with Bryne? Or will he walk away from the drugs and risk Bryne's life? As always M.S. Parker blows me away with the awesomeness that she is.
Loved it! M. S. Parker definitely knows how to deliver the perfect quiet before the storm. As usual, her writing has me me on edge.
Dax and Bryne's relationship is meant to be uncomplicated. Yet, their time spent together is so explosive. Can Dax protect Bryne from his work? Will he, unknowingly, cause her pain?
Yes, there's another cliffhanger but, Collide book 2, is a definite must read!
Volume 2 continues with Bryne and Dex! This is one hot story between these two characters! This story, as did vol 1, had me captivated and on the edge of my seat from beginning to end! And of course, had me yelling at the end because Queen Cliffhanger (aka M.S. Parker) strikes again! Looking forward to reading Vol. 3....SOON!
Best series yet so read #2it's getting good she got her part in a play and Dsx is gets Nguyen in trouble his mom as worried he fit came Called her aunt read this one too keep it and see what happens enjoy Margie and remember M.S. Parker I see good so read more of her work
I absolutely love with the twists and turns in MS PArker serial books, I also love a good cliff hanger if I don't have to wait long for the next book. AS usual Parker doesn't keep us waiting long.
The Story between Dax and Bryne is hotting up to the point of boiling add in some danger and you have an explosive series. Can't wait for the next installment.
Wow, I love this story. Dax and Bryne are attracted to each other and have an amazing connection but it's not just sexual, they really care about one another but neither one wants to tell the other. There are thibgs that are coming between them, i can't wait to find out what happens. I couldn't put it down once I started. Can't wait to read the next one.
Part 2 shows that Bryne & Dax can't stay away from each other, they've got such great chemistry. Sad to see Dax getting tangled up on the wrong side of the law in a way he has to give up Bryne. Curious to see what will happen next.
My- this ending has me wondering, worried and waiting! Sept 2nd can't come fast enough. I feel that parts of the story drag, and Dax is really getting on my last nerve, but I can't wait to know what happens next!
This is the followup to part 1 in the Collide series. It picks up where book 1 left off. Bryne, 19 years old thinks she knows everything that goes on in the world but really doesn’t.
Oh my God get it sorted and talk to each other, there's more than just friends with benefits going on here, and please don't let Dax do anything stupid
