Well damn Katee Roberts you have made this hard.
I have really enjoyed this series and when I found out this last one was Hope
and Daniel I knew it was going to be a lot more emotional and be a second
chance romance so it took me a while to pull up my big girl panties and dive
in.
Don’t get me wrong I knew there would be loads of
steamy sex scenes and I have yet to find anything Katee has written that I
haven’t loved I just really enjoyed the humour and quirkiness of the last two and I would
have loved for that to continue. But
with the previous introductions I knew I was going to need some tissues and
maybe a glass of wine or three and I wasn’t wrong.
From the first page I was invested, I had to know
how they were going to get passed this traumatic event that had torn them apart
and reconcile how they both reacted to the aftermath of their loss and pain. I
loved Hope’s no bullshit approach to dealing with everything and if I am being
honest, while I wanted Daniel to be happy I really felt like he needed a kick in
the dick for half the book.
However when I hit that 90% mark I just knew I
was going to walk away from this book without getting the resolution I so
desperately wanted. Now before you think I am complaining, I am not unhappy
with how the book ended I just felt it was too abrupt. I need an epilogue and
maybe like a week’s more grovelling and some action to back up all the pretty
words from Daniel. I just feel like I put the book down without finishing it or maybe I
missed a few pages.
That aside I did love the first 90% and Daniel
and Hope were such a magnetic combination It was fun to watch them fall back in
love and their lust cloud was pretty heady. Catching up with the craziness of
the other couples was good and I went through a whole gamut of emotions so all
in all this book was a few hours of much needed escape on a stormy Sunday arvo.
As soon
as I put down Foolproof Love I just had to have Fool Me Once. Not just because
Katee Roberts is an amazing author who seems to write exactly what I want to
read but because I loved Aubry and Quinn.
I just
couldn’t conceive how the hell these two characters could ever find enough
common ground to end up naked together. I figured copious amounts of alcohol,
but nope not a drop.
To say
Aubry is a little anti-social is maybe a slight understatement. Not only is she
flat out prickly but she also has severe anxiety issues. Sure she can come
across as a bit of a bitch but I loved her. She was so honest and never made
excuses for who she was. Honestly Aubry and her issues made this book for me.
That’s
not to say that I didn’t like Quinn I did he just had to work a little harder
for me to fall for him and to be honest I didn’t like him as much as I
expected. He came across as the poor little rich boy in this one a lot more
than I thought in the last one but then that’s probably due to the interaction
with his family. He did however man up in the end and I managed to forgive him.
Or maybe I just over looked it due to his dirty talk. He had a few moments
there that had me fanning myself.
I loved
the insight into Daniels demons and after his little cameo appearance towards
the end I am seriously crossing fingers he is getting his own book next.
Although I get the feeling that one would need tissues please sign me up. What
can I say? I love this series and these cowboys are working for me.
What can I say? I am a sucker for a sexy cowboy.
And Katee Robert always gives me hot and steamy sex scenes and characters I
love that make a quick story into the perfect break from reality and this book
was right on the money for both.
Jules is sick of the pity she is receiving from
her small town neighbours when her high school boyfriend returns to town
thinking things will pick up where he left them when he left her heartbroken to
go off to college. So when he corners her at a bonfire she pretends to be
dating Adam.
Adam has no desire to be stuck in his home town,
he is only there to check in on his sick mum before he heads back on out to the
next rodeo but he is more than happy to help Jules get the town and her ex off
her back and have a little fun in the deal.
The relationship between Jules and Adam was so
sweet and sexy I inhaled this book. I spent the afternoon with a big smile on
my face and I just couldn’t wait to see where they were going to go next and
how they were going to overcome the hurdles between them and their happily ever
after.
The secondary characters were awesome and the
interplay between them and the main characters was so entertaining I could have
stayed in Devil’s Falls for days hanging out at the cat café and chatting with
the locals. Luckily I only have to wait a few weeks until the next book is
released and it’s Quinn and Aubry. Wooo Hooo.
