I looked at reviews, I tried the sample and decided to buy. So now I’m here to give you a REAL and HONEST review.
Sp oil er ish con tent to justify rating. I didn’t want to leave a negative review, but felt since this isn’t in KU I would leave my honest feelings for others to see if it helps them decide since I didn’t see similar reviews. These books should be in KU btw IMO.
The h, Carmen, is a waitress at Waffle House and plans to get back at her ex who’s in a riding club that goes to this bar, which is frequented by bikers of MCs. She plans to get with several of his brothers as revenge because he cheated on her. What a bad plan, if anything it makes her look ridiculous. She only gets with one, the H, Cook, of this story.
ONLY from the h’s POV. Lame.
Con dom use.
Multiple okay ish hot scenes.
No cheating.
Overall, kind of bland.
No real action or high point of story, so no real defining moment of the story besides him transferring.
Abruptly stops.
No epilogue.
Didn’t feel any magic or spark.
The book says it takes two hours to get to the bar from campus, then it changes to like twenty minutes the rest of the book.
It was going well up until 89 percent. The night before she finds out Kyle is being transferred to the Missisippi chapter. Cook doesn’t say ANYthing about him going to. They go home that night, this is the point where she finally tells Cook she loves him. His response is, say it again. He does NOT say it back, though many of his actions make him seem he does. He is very caring in the story. He does a lot of sweet things, so he gets point for that most of the story.
The next morning he tells her he has to go also to finish prospecting because of a mistake he made before, but when he gets his patch, no telling how long it’ll take, he’ll be back and with her.
This is where the book is ruined for me. Instead of having a conversation with her about it, he ends up walking out and leaving cause he’s got to go. He didn’t say he loved her back; this is significant even if most of his actions say otherwise. And he DID NOT ASK HER TO GO. They both have access to money and she wasn’t in classes at that time. So why did he NOT ASK HER to go with him? He knew she had nothing going for her except attending LSU, which wasn’t even in session because it was summer. I just felt like after the love declaration there should have at least been more of a conversation.
In Cook’s defense he calls EVERY day at the same time. She doesn’t answer.
She packs up, drops out of classes at LSU since they’ve started back and moves back to Georgia and enrolls at UGA there. Mistake there also. You don’t just enroll in classes at another college mid semester.
Two months and six days later he somehow knows what bar she is in with her friend Emily and he rolls up with like fifty club members. He says she’s going to be back with him. She’s been hurt and crying for over two months. He says he knew where she was but it’s not said how except he has contacts. He’s all I’ll give my patch up for you and she’s all no I would never ask that of you. But she’s told him several times she won’t be second to anything. Good for her for saying that, but with the way he left I felt like she is or at least was second. She just forgives him like on the spot, and again he did call every day even though she didn’t answer, but I just could not forgive him because he just left and didn’t ask her to go when he knew she was all alone, in a bad apartment, in a bad job and not in classes at the time. I just felt like even though his actions were good up until then that it wasn’t forgivable. I felt her hurt and loss and there’s just no way I’d be able to just forgive him like it’s okay.
Then the book just STOPS.
No epilogue, no what happened after, did she just drop out of UGA then? Did she move in with him back in Louisiana? It just abruptly ends and there just wasn’t enough to satisfy me or to make me want to forgive him. Had he asked her to go, I think I might have felt differently. I understand getting the patch was important for him and he needs to have things that are important to him too. But Carmen had a good point that she felt second and he didn’t ask her to go.
He still does NOT tell her he loves her back. He says say it again, but still doesn’t say it in the last chapter.
Don’t recommend.
