So, I haven't been reading nearly as much as I would have liked this year. Have I read a few books? Yes. Did it take me a long time? Also yes. Am I amped up on coffee this morning? Yup. (I've lost track of the cup number. *shrug*) Anyway, This past Tuesday I read a book I'd been waiting for from one of my favorite authors. CM Genovese. (He's got a couple of names leading to various genres of romance.) See this book below.... Yes that book right there was read in basically one sitting. I say basically cause of drinks, food, pets, and other things that had to be done in the day.
I really loved this book. I started out laughing. The dialogue and the characters just lend(ed)* cause I hate grammar right now and it sounds better in my head* to a fun light hearted (maybe, maybe not) humor. Cassie is such a sweet girl, until later. *cough, cough* Rain is well, he's a badass motherfucker that survived have his throat slit in prison. (Yes, this is the couple you are rooting for.) They are the cutest together once they come together. *mind out of gutter people* Then BAM action happens. There's murder, kidnappings, and ax throwing. *I wanna throw axes. Wait I can barely throw darts and hit the board. So no throwing axes for me. That would be dangerous and I don't live dangerously.* Okay, so if any of these factors are something you enjoy, go for it and read his other work. Do, it!
Anyway, I have two main vices in my life. Books clearly and coffee. *We won't tell my video game.* I do love a good tea, but I live on coffee. My Facebook even has figured it out. I need to stop clicking on the yummy looking coffee ads. Never. I might have a cabinet filled with bags of coffee that I'm slowly going through and I drink it every day. I have a small counter nook dedicated to coffee with pictures and other things. There may be a picture one day. That would involve making it look presentable and well, I'm not there yet.
Well, anyway. This was a fantastic book that kept me entertained *cursing the author.* It's also part of a multi author series. I haven't read any of the other books, but I have several I want to read because of other favorite authors. If I do, I'll try very hard to write something up.
Until next time.
Drink tea ***COFFEE*** and read!

MC Romance and Lady Grey
One of the genres I enjoy reading is MC (motorcycle club) romance. I've read several of Joanna Wylde's Reaper series. Something that I have done for many years and with many many book series is that I didn't actually start with book one when I found this author and began reading her. Nope I started with book two. Reaper's Legacy got me into a really good book series. Thank you Books A Million for your bargain section cause I would have missed out.
Not sure when I started getting into this genre but it was in the last few years, this I know. Since then I have read Devil's Game (book 3), Reaper's Stand (book 4), Reaper's Property (book 1), and Reapers and Bastards (anthology). I'm in the process of reading book 5 Reaper's Fall. That will only leave me with a couple of her books left to get and read. Something I'm looking forward to doing. I mostly read the books in order, though I found it wasn't super imperative to do so, it would still be a good idea due to characters and timelines. Pesky details and what have you. (Important pesky details.)
Reviews are actually very difficult to write for me. It's good buy it are the perfect way to get friends to try something. Having to come up with reasons as to why one should buy something with examples is hard for me. Motorcycles, humor, romance, and action. Those are good key words to the books I've read. Emotional response is another thing I experienced while reading. Being able to get sucked into a story and care about the character's it a big thing for me. Though depending on my mood I sometimes switch books because my headspace changes. One reason I have too many books I'm in the middle of reading.
In review, these books are kick ass and really read written. This is also a series that I've gone back to to reread. I love books that allow me to do that. The males have made me wish I could hit them upside the head on occasion while going "What in the hell are you thinking?". Though what well written book doesn't have you wanting to strangle the characters. It's a way to really get into a book.
Reading these different books I don't have a favorite because they are all different and I like them equally due to this. All the men are awesome and have a quirk or action that makes you love them and want to keep reading. The women all have reasons why they are strong, each in their own way.
Onto a separate note, I have tried both the Prince of Wales and Lady Grey teas. Each was very good, but the Lady Grey trumps Prince of Wales at this time. The Earl Grey was just Earl Grey (still a good tea mind you), but Lady Grey is the winner so far. I still have a few more to try and debate on. I have a feeling I will choose teas based on how I'm feeling and not just the taste. (Coffee still rules the mornings, but I did have an entire day of drinking Lady Grey, so point scored there. lol)
