Combust (Book Four Electric Series) E. L Todd

Author: E.L Todd
Release Date: October 11, 2016
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Rating: 4 Stars
I honestly think that the fact that these books were broken up into four parts and released on the same day is ridiculous.  Book One and Book two could have easily been combined and it would have been a wonderful story and the same goes for book three and four.  Book four picks up after the big "break up" of Volt and Taylor and we get a little closer to the showdown between Volt and Sarah. Volt and Taylor kissed and made up, so I really did not see a reason to read the last book of the series.  Simply because my mom did not raiser a quitter, I decided to go  ahead and read the book.  There is no mistaking that Volt and Taylor is a good couple and this book has too many sex scenes for me and it took too long to get to the answer that I already knew the answer too.  Now I love sex scenes, but not when it weighs down the story and I thought this was novel, not an erotica.

I really feel for Clay in this book and it was really emotional.  Mrs. Todd knows how to write an emotional scene and she makes the reader feel as if they are right there at the desk with Volt and Clay.  I was biting my nails because I already knew what was  coming.  This whole series is based on who the ex-girlfriend is and the answer was revealed book one.   When it was big mystery was finally revealed, my heart stopped.  I was so happy that everything was out in the open. I already knew who the mystery ex-girlfriend was, but I was not prepared for the intensity of Sarah.  She asked Taylor to dump Volt or she and Taylor could not remain friends.  What a selfish bitch, excuse my language.  I can't believe Taylor was even considering leaving Volt for Sarah?  If Sarah was  her best friend, she would be happy for Taylor and Sarah cheated on Volt anyway.  Both of these women were selfish and I almost stopped reading this book because Taylor was unbearable because of the way she handled the situation.




Only Ms. Todd can write a scene with so much intensity that it makes me have butterflies.  The scene between Volt and Taylor is intense and I really appreciate an author that can convey those type of feelings on a page. A great ending to a great, emotional series.  It is a must read minus book two, LOL!.

One Sexy Mistake by Sarah Ballance

Author:  Sarah Ballance Date Released: November 28, 2016 Genre: Romance Rating:  3 Stars *** If it wasn't for the weird beginning to this story, I would have gave this book 4 Stars.  This story started out really weird for me to say the least,  but it grabbed my attention. I am glad that I gave this book a chance because this story is really sweet.  This book is about two computer hackers who find love on a dating app. Olivia is a computer hacker who was fired from her job because of her program being prematurely released by someone.  To make matters worse,  she is dumped by her boyfriend the next day. Wanting to have a no strings sexy one night stand, she meets Grady on line, whom is also a computer hacker. The beginning is so awkward and stupid, that I almost quit. She meets this guy on line and goes to his house, not knowing whether he is a serial killer or not. Then they proceed to have sex, but it is so awkward and it made m...

A True Cowboy Christmas

Author:  Caitlyn Crews Date Released :  October 30, 2018 I went backwards with this series because I actually read book 2 titled "Cold Heart, Warm Cowboy" back in 2019 and when I chose this book I had no idea that it was a part of the same series. Weird.. The book that we are gathered here to review is "A True Cowboy Christmas" and it tells the story of Abby and Gray Everett.  Gray Everett does not believe in love based on a failed marriage and think Abby will be the perfect and practical wife to share his life and ranch with.  You lovers do know how that always ends right?  It was a little cliché, but I am always down or up for love. Let's jump into it.  As I stated before, Gray has ranching in his blood and has just buried his very abusive father.  Gray has a teenage daughter and who also happens to be a widow.  Gray has realized that he needs a family for his daughter and an eternal partner.  A marriage without love makes sense right?...
