A masquerade, a hidden identity, a life-altering night, and heartbreak.

Seduction of the Billionaire was a sexy and intriguing prequel. I don't know Zoe or Christian, at all. But now, I'm very curious and I want to know them.

I'm anxious to really get started on the Holland Springs series!


Favorite Quote:

  He wished he could arrest this moment: a gentle breeze, the moonlight shining down, and Amber in his arms.
  "Are you here by yourself?"
  Always, he wanted to say. He was always by himself, making his own way through life.

He's her best friend's older brother

Twenty-four year old Troublemaker Extraordinaire, Melanie Ann Smith, isn't asking for much out of life: a house without wheels, to travel further than her home state and her best friend's older brother, Carter Ambrose. Only three things stand in her way: juggling all of her odd jobs, keeping her daddy from gambling away all of their money and getting Carter to see her as a woman.

She is the one woman who's off-limits...

NASCAR racer, Carter Ambrose, has finally decided to take his doctor's advice and find a new occupation before another wreck on the track kills him. Only his doctor hadn't counted on his little sister's best friend, Melanie Ann Smith, crashing his weeks of solitude with her short skirts and platform heels. And that's not the least of his problems. His mother has decided that she wants grandchildren and the only woman that's good enough for the job-his ex-fiance.

Soon Melanie and Carter agree to a temporary relationship. One with benefits that is mutually satisfying in every way, or so each believes. And just when they are ready admit their feelings, family secrets are exposed, threatening Melanie and Carter's fragile relationship.

Will Carter risk it all for love, or will Melanie be left holding the trophy for second place?

After reading Seduction of the Billionaire, I was anxious to get more of the Holland Springs series. I was a little disappointed that Drive Me Crazy was not about Zoe, but her brother Carter and best friend Melanie. My disappointed quickly went away because I adored this story with the small town setting and beloved "little sister's best friend" trope.

Melanie and Carter were both likeable and interesting characters. Carter is a member of the golden Ambrose family, and has recently retired as a NASCAR driver to start a custom car business. Melanie is from the wrong side of town, and has been in love with Carter for years. When Melanie begins working for Carter, he quickly begins to see her as a woman and not a little girl. His ex-girlfriend, overbearing mom, her gambling, ladies man of a dad, and inferiority issues all come into play in the love affair of Melanie and Carter. But he's not about to go down without a fight.

Drive Me Crazy was a quick, light and fun read. I'm really enjoying the Holland Springs series, and am excited to read more!


Favorite Quotes:

 
  "Now that's a sweet sight." All at once, he pivoted and her back hit the brick wall of the restaurant. He sealed his mouth over hers and cupped her breasts. For long, sweet moments, there was nothing but his mouth on hers. Nothing but tasting and pleasure. Nothing but Carter.


  She kissed his throat and jaw, her sweet breath fanning over his sensitive skin. He let her legs slide to the floor, then claimed her mouth in a long kiss. Something hot and sweet washed over him as the tips of her fingers touched his face.
   He leaned back to get a good look at her. At her flushed face and tousled curls. At the emotion shining clearly in her dark eyes.

  Yeah, he was done. Forget done. He was worthless. No good for anyone but her. 


  "If I had Melanie's heart, I'd treat it like the treasure it is."
  "Now that was poetic." Turning to face his sister, he was surprised to see tears in her eyes. "Quick. Write it down before you forget it. She needs to hear that from you."
  He tapped his head. "Don't need to." But it wasn't in his brain. The words were written on his heart, signed and ready to be delivered to Melanie.

Even Bad Girls deserve a Happily Ever After

Finn was supposed to be the rebound guy, the one that got April Billingsworth over her breakup with her fiancé. Only one night turned into two, two nights turned into a week, then months of pure happiness. Now this former bad girl's ready to settle down and go the distance with the man she loves, until the secret Finn's been keeping from her comes to light.

There was only one rule, Private Investigator, Finn Kennedy lived by: Do not, under any circumstances, get involved with a client. That is, until he met his latest assignment, April Billingsworth, the current governor's daughter and Charlotte's most notorious bad girl. Not only has he broken his rule, but April has discovered his secret-he's been keeping tabs on her and reporting back to her father.

Devastated by the truth, April leaves Finn and tries to go on with her life, without the lying bastard. But Finn has other plans, he's determined to win April back. And this time, nothing's going to stand in his way. 
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18583362-drive-me-crazy

WOW. After reading Drive Me Crazy, if I'd been told that not only would I tolerate reading April's story, but enjoy it, I would have rolled my eyes.  April Billingsworth was awful in book one. She was a manipulative, snobby lying liar face, and I did not like her one bit.

"Even Bad Girls Deserve a Happily Ever After" is the tagline for Driving to You, and you know what, that is too true. Everyone needs a happy ever after, if the work to deserve it. Valentine did a great job of taking a hated character and showing another, more sympathetic side to April. April may never be the sweetheart of the series, but now I get her. And I actually liked her.

It probably doesn't hurt that April's love is a charming, sexy Irishman by the name Finn Kennedy. Finn and April's affair begins under a bit of deceit which tears them apart. In the meantime, we learn why April went to Holland Springs (in Drive Me Crazy) to win (or buy) back Carter Ambrose's affection, why she lied, and why she left so quietly. I was so pleasantly surprised by the answers, and loved how the two stories fit together to make a really cool story.

Of course, Driving to You is about April and Finn, and the lengths this delicious man went to in order to win back April's love and trust was just heart-melting. This novella is a great addition to the Holland Springs series.


Favorite Quotes:

  "Are you trying to say that you're in love with me?"
  "No!"
  She jerked back as if he'd slapped her. "Oh."
  He held up his hand. "What I mean is that I'm not sure. I could be. Maybe? I know I like you and the sex..." He let out a whistle and gave her a wicked grin.
  "I'm exceptional at sex," she said with a confident smile. And flexible. Oh, and willing to try things."


  Finn made a face at his friend. "Shut it."
  "This girl's got you all tied up, and not in a Fifty Shades kinda way either." Hunter popped a handful of peanuts in his mouth. "I say it's time for you to move on."
  "While I say it's time for you to read How to Hold On to Your Mancards."
  "Please, Tiffany is all about some romance and I'm the beneficiary of it." Hunter grinned, his white teeth flashing against his dark skin. "In fact, I bought her an e-reader for Christmas so she didn't have to wait--"
  "Oh, Jesus." Finn scrubbed his face with his hand. "You don't actually read those with her, do you?"
  "Real men read romance, Finn"

Born into wealth and power, Christian Romanov is Hollywood’s favorite bad boy with a golden touch…until the day his agent receives pictures of the movie star celebrating his birthday in a not-so-legal way. Now he’s been ordered to find a small-town girl to be seen with in order to improve his partying image. He agrees, but for an entirely different reason-to protect the reputation of an organization that helps get teens off the street and back into the school. Not only is he the anonymous donor that's been solely supporting the organization since its inception, he's slated to be their newest spokesman.

Zoe Ambrose is a hopeless romantic masquerading as a realist. But she’s also a successful novelist, trying to fit herself into a staid life when what she craves is the adventure she found one night in the arms of a playboy who never knew her name. When her successful crime series is optioned by a major studio, she travels to Las Vegas to find that the prince of her fantasies and single night of pleasure is the main contender for the male lead. But for four years Zoe has been publicly eviscerating the man who left her stranded that night—he’s the villain in her series! Now the movie star doesn't recognize her, and Zoe is determined to protect her heart this time.

When Christian braves the small town of Holland Springs and Zoe’s overprotective family to win the girl of his dreams, he finds that his Hollywood skills might not cut it—and learns a shocking truth he never imagined. Can he can tempt her again and finally give her the epic love story she has refused to write for herself?

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18583362-drive-me-crazy

When I started the Holland Springs series, I was hoping to find stories that were fun and sexy, heartfelt and sweet. A series that gives me the same feelings as Bella Andre's Sullivans series. And guess what, I've found it.

We first meet Christian Romanov and Zoe Ambrose in the series prequel Seduction of the Billionaire. And I do strongly recommend reading that (free) prequel because it gives you the reasons why Zoe is wary of Christian, and why he can't seem to forget his mystery woman from long ago.

Twice Tempted is the perfect name for this installment. Christian has twice tempted the cautious and sweet Zoe. And twice Christian himself has been tempted to forgo his ways by a sweet and tempting in her own right woman.

Twice Tempted was a very charming and sexy second chance love story. And now that I've gotten deeper into the characters and their stories, I am becoming addicted.

OH! Holland Springs is a town with a mysterious legend, one promising love and forever. When you finally get to visit the springs, it is MAGICAL.

Favorite Quotes:

 
  "When you love someone, it shouldn't matter what they do. Serial killers and people who make chocolate-covered raisins excluded."
  "We really need to work on your sense of humor."

 
  There would never be another moment like this, so perfect and right. He would never have another woman look at him like Zoe was right now--like he'd hung the moon and stars for her. She didn't see him as Ian Romanov, the actor. She knew him, down to his most guarded secrets, as Christian Romanov, the man.


  "Where were you last night?" Christian asked, ignoring the smirk on his cousin's face as they walked out of the bedroom.
  "I was otherwise occupied."
  "You mean you were shagging some woman blind, and then got pissed."
  "You say tomato and I say...We say it the exact same way."

MY THOUGHTS ON: BLACK DAGGER BROTHERHOOD (1-3, 6.5), NIGHT PRINCE (1-2)

Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #1)Series: Black Dagger Brotherhood #1
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Publisher: Signet Eclipse
Publication Date: 9/6/05
Format: Paperback
Pages: 393
Source: Bought
In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there's a deadly turf war going on between vampires and their slayers. There exists a secret band of brothers like no other-six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Yet none of them relishes killing more than Wrath, the leader of The Black Dagger Brotherhood.

The only purebred vampire left on earth, Wrath has a score to settle with the slayers who murdered his parents centuries ago. But, when one of his most trusted fighters is killed-leaving his half-breed daughter unaware of his existence or her fate-Wrath must usher her into the world of the undead-a world of sensuality beyond her wildest dreams.


Damn, boys. Where have you been all my life??

I'm probably one of the last of my book loving friends to read this series. And I gotta say, I feel like a chump. I have a confession: I started reading Dark Lover back in early-2009. I didn't like it at all. I thought it was weird and had too much sex. For those of you who know how much I now love the sexy times in my books, stop laughing. In my defense, at that time, I had a baby, a three year-old, and I had no time for funny business like that.

Thank god those days are over because Dark Lover was HOT. I loved Ward's sexy vampires, with their no bullshit attitude and their aggressiveness. The Brothers are the kind of sexy bad boys I loooove in my paranormal books. It's all about the fantasy, yeah?

I'll go ahead and give credit where it's due. Autumn, thank you for pushing me to give Dark Lover another chance. And the jury's still out until he gets his own book, but the fact that you immediately declared me a Vishous girl just proves that you know what I want in a book man more than anyone.

So yeah...I loved Dark Lover. I love the writing, the world Ward has created, the characters, and most of all the Brothers.



Lover Eternal (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #2)Series: Black Dagger Brotherhood #2
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Publisher: Signet Eclipse
Publication Date: 3/7/06
Format: Paperback
Pages: 441

In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there's a deadly turf war raging between vampires and their slayers. There exists a secret bound of brothers like no other-six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Possessed by a deadly beast Rhage is the most dangerous of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.

Within the brotherhood, Rhage is the vampire with the strongest appetites. He's the best fighter, the quickest to act on his impulses, and the most voracious lover-for inside him burns ferocious curse cast by the Scribe Virgin. Owned by this dark side, Rhage fears the time when his inner dragon is unleashed, making him a danger to everyone around him.

Mary Luce, a survivor of many hardships is unwittingly thrown into the vampire world and reliant to Rhage's protection. With a life-threatening curse of her own, Mary is not looking for love. She lost her faith in miracles years ago. But when Rhage's intense animal attraction turns into something more emotional, he knows that he must make Mary his alone. And while their enemies close in, Mary fights desperately to gain life eternal with the one she loves...


So after I read Dark Lover, I obviously wanted to dive into Lover Eternal. But, life got in the way, so I had to wait several weeks or so to begin. I loved the world and the characters, and wanted more, but I wasn't all that keen on Rhage's story. He's a cool character and all, but there were other Brothers higher on my radar.

At first, I was a little "meh" on Lover Eternal, but I can't exactly say why. Mary was alright, and so was Rhage. There was this whole other sub-plot with a new character, and at first I didn't pay a whole lot of attention, but about halfway through the story, I had a major lightbulb moment. I thought I just could not be right, my theory didn't make a lot of sense at all. But as it turns out, it's been confirmed that I am right, and I feel like a genius!

So anyway, about halfway through Lover Eternal, BAM, I fell in love. The story started really moving. I got to know Rhage better, and I loved learning more about his curse. Mary finally saw the light, and stopped fighting her love for Rhage, so then I loved her. We also get to know more about Phury and Zsadist. ZSADIST. I have a feeling his story is going to both break my heart and make me love him. (It's okay, Autumn, I know he's yours.)

The ending of Lover Eternal was just insane. Frantically reading, trying to flip the pages, wipe the tears and drink my beer at the same time was quite the challenge! Lover Eternal had one of the most intense endings I've read, and I loved it. I was literally shaking and holding my chest for about thirty minutes. Lover Awakened may kill me.


Lover Awakened (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #3)Series: Black Dagger Brotherhood #3
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Publisher: Signet Eclipse
Publication Date: 9/5/06
Format: Paperback
Pages: 434
Source: Bought


In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there’s a deadly war raging between vampires and their slayers. And there exists a secret band of brothers like no other - six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Of these, Zsadist is the most terrifying member of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.

A former blood slave, the vampire Zsadist still bears the scars from a past filled with suffering and humiliation. Renowned for his unquenchable fury and sinister deeds, he is a savage feared by humans and vampires alike. Anger is his only companion, and terror is his only passion—until he rescues a beautiful aristocrat from the evil Lessening Society.

Bella is instantly entranced by the seething power Zsadist possesses. But even as their desire for one another begins to overtake them both, Zsadist’s thirst for vengeance against Bella’s tormentors drives him to the brink of madness. Now, Bella must help her lover overcome the wounds of his tortured past, and find a future with her…

Ah, Zsadist... this is the story I was warned would break my heart. Zsadist was not a likeable character in the first two books of the series, and Lover Awakened explains exactly why. His backstory was way more brutal and horrific than I imagined, and yes, my heart did break for him. But the story was also very uplifting, thanks to the amazing Bella.
Bella and Zsadist had amazing chemistry in Lover Eternal. But she also had chemistry with his twin brother Phury. This had me worried that Lover Eternal was going to be the push-and-pull between the three characters. Though it had a few moments (poor Phury), thankfully that's not the route the story took. The story begins with the search for Bella after her abduction at the end of Lover Eternal, and Z's desperation to find her and refusal to give up. Once she's been rescued, that's when the heart of the story truly begins.
Lover Awakened was a gorgeous, and tough, love story. Bella knows she wants Z, but he is more than reluctant to become involved with her. Years as a blood slave abused his body and killed Z's spirit. He truly believes he is not worthy of Bella, and will taint her. Bella was a strong woman who refuses to accept his dismissal, knowing that he is a male of worth. Her love for Z was just really, really beautiful. I loved that she stood up to and for him.
Lover Awakened is also Z's reckoning with his past. Throughout the story, his story is told, clueing the reader into why he became so cold and deadly. Not only is it Z's story to be told, but also Phury's. Gosh, I felt so bad for him, and can't wait to see him find happiness, too.
As sad and romantic and scary as Lover Awakened was, it had the sweetest ending. I was left teary-eyed, smiling, and pumped to read Z and Bella's novella, Father Mine.

Father Mine: Zsadist and Bella's Story (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #6.5)Series: Black Dagger Brotherhood #6.5
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Publisher: NAL
Publication Date: 10/7/08
Format: Kindle
Pages: 91
Source: Gift


Readers met and fell in love with Zsadist and Bella in J. R. Ward's third New York Times bestselling novel in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series, Lover Awakened.
As a former blood slave, Zsadist bore the scars from a past filled with suffering and degradation until Bella came along and helped heal his emotional wounds. Now, though, with the birth of their child, the demons of his past have been resurrected, called forth by the innocent eyes of his beloved daughter, Nalla. Unless Bella and Nalla can bring him back with their love, he may be lost to them forever.

*happy sigh* I loved Father Mine! In fact, I will say that it is my favorite book of the series so far.
And yes, I read it out of order, I didn't realize until after I'd started. And yes, there were some spoilers, but I still loved it. Father Mine is what happens after Happily Ever After, the story that happens between the "end" of Lover Awakened and the epilogue that takes place sixteen months later.

I knew that Zsasdist had overcome his past enough to be with Bella, but I was very curious as to how that would play out in his daily life, and with a family. Father Mine was dark. It went more into his past as a Blood Slave, how he's still haunted by it, and his fears as to how it will play a part in the future. And even though this is about vampires, the family and marriage aspect of the story is one that is very relatable.

Father Mine was absolutely brilliant. It made me laugh, get steamed up at the hotness, and yeah, I cried. I loved it.





Once Burned (Night Prince, #1)Series: Night Prince #1
Category/Genre: Adult Paranormal Romance
Publisher: Harper Audio
Publication Date: 6/26/12

Narrator: Tavia Gilbert
Format: Audiobook
Source: Purchased


 
She's a mortal with dark powers...

After a tragic accident scarred her body and destroyed her dreams, Leila never imagined that the worst was still to come: terrifying powers that let her channel electricity and learn a person's darkest secrets through a single touch. Leila is doomed to a life of solitude...until creatures of the night kidnap her, forcing her to reach out with a telepathic distress call to the world's most infamous vampire...

He's the Prince of Night...

Vlad Tepesh inspired the greatest vampire legend of all—but whatever you do, don't call him Dracula. Vlad's ability to control fire makes him one of the most feared vampires in existence, but his enemies have found a new weapon against him—a beautiful mortal with powers to match his own. When Vlad and Leila meet, however, passion ignites between them, threatening to consume them both. It will take everything that they are to stop an enemy intent on bringing them down in flames.


As a huge fan of Jeaniene Frost, I am upset with myself for falling so behind on her books. I've owned the Once Burned audiobook since the day it release, and own a paperback, but just kept putting it off. Maybe it's because while I've always liked Vlad Tepesh as a secondary character, I wasn't sure that I was super excited to see him as a leading man?

Whatever the reason, I'm glad I finally listed to Once Burned. It always takes me a while to get fully invested in the spin-offs of the Night Huntress series, especially when each hero (Mencheres, Spade) gets only one book. But knowing that Vlad and his new lady Leila get three books helped me latch on to their story. Honestly, I really liked this story, but only the basics stuck with me. I'm not sure if that's because I listened over a long period of time, was easily distracted, or I just didn't fall overly in love with the story. This story basically goes along the same path as the Night Huntress World series books, vampire meets human, she's in danger, he takes her in, there's something physically "different"about her that makes her more adaptive to the supernatural world, they fall in love while battling the bad guys. In Leila's case, she can shock other's and can read thoughts. But still, this is Jeaniene Frost here, and I always enjoy her books.

I have to say, Tavia Gilbert is by far my favorite narrator. She always brings a sense of enthusiasm and life to the stories she narrates. She does a great job of differentiating the characters with her voice. Listening to Gilbert makes the audio even more enjoyable than physically reading the books, and that is  rare.

Even though I didn't love love Once Burned, I did like it a lot, and as soon as I finished, I opened up Twice Tempted.

Leila's psychic abilities have been failing her, and now she isn't sure what the future holds. If that weren't enough, her lover, Vlad, has been acting distant. Though Leila is a mere mortal, she's also a modern woman who refuses to accept the cold shoulder treatment forever–especially from the darkly handsome vampire who still won't admit that he loves her.

Like choosing between eternal love and a loveless eternity...

Soon circumstances send Leila back to the carnival circuit, where tragedy strikes. And when she finds herself in the crosshairs of a killer who may be closer than she realizes, Leila must decide who to trust– the fiery vampire who arouses her passions like no other or the tortured knight who longs to be more than a friend? With danger stalking her every step of the way, all it takes is one wrong move to damn her for eternity.
 

I feel like a complete jerk saying this, but I just do not care about Vlad, Leila, or this series anymore. I didn't hate it. I didn't even find it to be poorly written or narrated. I just didn't care. I had to make myself listen to it while traveling. I was just bored.

 I will attribute some of that to not being a huge fan of Vlad's in any capacity, be it this series or Night Huntress. I can also say that Leila annoyed me. I am not easily annoyed by heroines. I just found her to be so grating. She left Vlad because he wouldn't say he loved her, then when he came back into her life, she guilted him endlessly. Then, when he said "Okay, I love you. Now let's get married," she was like "No. Wait! This is too sudden." At that point, I said "Enough."

It really pains me that I don't care that much for this series, because I am a huge fan of Jeaniene Frost's. Huge. But yeah, I think I may be done with this series. Or not. I guess time will tell...
