Surrender to the Devil (Scoundrels of St. James, #3) By Lorraine Heath

Surrender to the Devil (Scoundrels of St. James, #3)Surrender to the Devil by Lorraine Heath
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I'm starting to develop a crush Ms. Heath, this series is amazing, at first I didn't realize that it's a sort of parody of Oliver Twist but now I confirmed my doubts and I really think it's amazingly nice

- I have to admit in here I didn't fall in love with any of the characters but I liked them well enough, it's just some of the ideas that are included in this book were the ones I loved.

- Since book one I really didn't like the Duke, and in the beginning of the book he didn't help, being all snobbish and bossy. Plus my thoughts about his dilemma at first weren't of the kind variety, I was like he was turning blind why all the drama, I read books about already blind guys and they kinda adjusted better, but then I felt contrite, I'm in no place to judge since I'm not the one with a timer set to finalize the end of his eyesight. Slowly bit by bit I started to like him, at first I didn't like the idea of his trying to impress her by doing charity and help the boys, but eventually he started ding it for the boys using her as an excuse XD. I liked how he interacted with the boys especially Peter.

- I liked Frannie since book one, since she supported the main characters in their love pursuits. I like her passion about the orphaned boys. And I envy her her relationship with Feagan's lads, and I have to voice my sympathies to Swindler, since he didn't have a chance, but WOW his crush seems more series since he became kinda of an exhibitionist to her and all. I liked her moderate attitude, and when I say moderate I meant that she didn't play hard to get or played to easy to get sort, she knew their differences she knew how it would end and she embraced the results.

- I'm starting to develop a liking to Feagan as well XD

- I liked the scenes with the kids and their interactions with the adults XD

Overall, *thumps up* can't wait to finish this series so that I can jump to the other series regarding their children XD

Between the Devil and Desire (Scoundrels of St. James, #2) By Lorraine Heath

Between the Devil and Desire (Scoundrels of St. James, #2)Between the Devil and Desire by Lorraine Heath
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved Jack, and the touch of a single parent theme is melting ^^

- Jack was wonderful, of course I had my doubts about him since the first book, since no one seemed t trust him fully even the Feagan's Lads didn't except for Luke and we have see what that had turned into. However unlike the heroine I didn't base judgments n him from what I heard about him, I was just curious about him. I was slightly annoyed with the heroine till half way through the book, she was so judgmental ALWAYS thinking the worst of him, always thinking he's the one at fault, always assuming he was the one who did the wrong, even the first scene when they first met, she kept having this one sided conversation about his wicked bad life and all he did was sit in the chair and ignore her, But I'm glad she saw the mistake in her actions and righted her behavior.

He was so lovely with Henry, and since the beginning I sensed the connection between them that they realized at the end of the book. I liked how he was attuned to Henry's behavior and fears, how he paid bags of money just so the boy can have a moments of joy. I liked his protectiveness toward the boys, because his experience is something that no boy should experience, it's just unnatural and plainly sick.

- I liked the heroine, she was ok. I liked how she was devoted to her son, but her insistence on propriety was annoying, I liked her much more on the second half of the book, specifically after they fired the old nanny, that's when they started to develop their camaraderie. I loved her at the end, when they ended up together, how she was fiercely loyal to jack and is ignoring society and its dictates.

- I loved the loyalty between the Feagan brood, they were together from thin to thick and back.

- I loved the relationship that developed between Jack and Henry, the hero worship in the boy's eyes was evident, and I loved the imitating scene at the dinner table.

Overall, *thumps up*

In Bed with the Devil (Scoundrels of St. James, #1) By Lorraine Heath

In Bed with the Devil (Scoundrels of St. James, #1)In Bed with the Devil by Lorraine Heath
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved it!! This is my first book by Lorraine Heath and I loved every second of it.

- Loved the hero, he was sooo kind and sweet and totally doesn't fit the name of the Devil, he was more gentlemanly more kind, more brave more .. just more in every area than any other man in the book, maybe not all we still didn't get to know the others form Feagan's scoundrels, but that is soon is going to be remedied. Anyway the point is he was more of a gentleman than anyone who claimed they were.

- Loved the heroine, the word that fits her the most is Bold. for she was bold, she doesn't take to commands well, she talks back, she fights back, she doesn't hesitate, she keeps going forward and on. I loved how she was bold and brazen how she thought of the Earl and how it changed, how she was calm about everything about his history and how she was comfortable with his friends. Simply I loved that she accepts him for him.

- Even though there was a third wheel between them, but that didn't worry me much because since the beginning of the book Frannie admitted that she only sees him as a brother and she was encouraging their relationship.

- Loved how comfortable they were with each other, I loved the omelette scenes.

- I loved the fight scene where she protects him, which shows shes not the time to stand back and let herself be protected which makes me like her more.

- I loved the scenes that followed them to the country house, the night, the picnic, all of it, they were so cute.

- The ending was lovely, but I think I don't like the brother much, he was overbearing with I'm lord and master crap, hated him on the spot for that. But I loved how they came together.

Overall, *thumps up*

Vet's Desire (Big Girls Lovin' Trilogy, #3) By Angela Verdenius

Vet's Desire (Big Girls Lovin' Trilogy, #3)Vet's Desire by Angela Verdenius
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I'm loving Angels Verdenius books, I'm thinking of reading the lawson boys books next ^^

- I was really shocked with Tim in this book, in the previous ones he was the funny joker guy in the group, but you notice glimpses of the sadness within. In here he really opened up, he looked within himself and took a closer look to his surroundings and finally FINALLY talked about his feelings. I liked how he became upfront to her, he might have stumbled in the beginning but caught up and spilled his guts, for once in this series the guy here is the one who was afraid of a broken heart when he spilled everything for her.

- Cindy was a breath of fresh air, she was happy and has a great family, I liked her confidence, I liked that she has the balls to stand up for herself and doesn't take crap from anyone. I liked how she made Time feel.

- Couldn't help but fall for Al like the rest of her family.

- Loved the guy talks, and even when they had each others back, like when Mike talked to Cindy, how they told him the truth about his feelings, and every scene they appeared in was nice, cause it showed how happy and in love the previous couple are.

- I liked how Tim faced his mom at the end once and for all.

- I liked Cindy's brothers, especially when Tim was in the picture.

- The only negative side is that there is no epilogue T^T

Overall, *thumps up*

Cop's Passion (Big Girls Lovin' Trilogy, #2) By Angela Verdenius

Cop's Passion (Big Girls Lovin' Trilogy, #2)Cop's Passion by Angela Verdenius
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A very nice follow up story after the amazing first couple, this couple was fabulous.

- Liked Maddy and her snide remarks, how she was ballsy but nice at the same time, depending on her target.

- Loved Mike, like what Maddy said he was a walking wet dream, everything about him was nice and cute, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds that hulking softie cute, especially his moments with the kitten, those I was all ahhh and ohhh. How he was don't get close to me and he cuddles it close XD I liked how he was bold and didn't hesitate to state his intentions as bluntly as possible.

- I liked how the guys interacted, they were cute and funny, and how Tim is like "oh darling you want me to kiss your bobo?" XD and then Alan with his k-i-s-s-i-n-g songs, never gets old XD and personally I think Mike and Rick are so alike that's why Tim is like are we having girls time now XD

- I liked the banter between the couple, how they got each other, and kinda clicked.

- Loved the ending especially when facing their families, those asshole deserved what they got, I'm in exactly the same situation, they are like if you lose weight we are sure you will find a guy and stuff, do Maddy YOU GO GIRL!! and Mike I could kiss you for what you have said and DID XD

Overall, *thumps up* I'm looking forward to the next book, the main couple for it sound really interesting.

Doctor's Delight (Big Girls Lovin' Trilogy, #1) By Angela Verdenius

Doctor's Delight (Big Girls Lovin' Trilogy, #1)Doctor's Delight by Angela Verdenius
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved it, it was my first book for a plus-sized girl and I really liked it.

- Loved the hero, he was soooooo cute when he was with her, and in other reviews I read someone described him like a puppy following her around, which is true, and do you know what other thing is true about him, him being a potential stalker XD I'm glad that he got through t the heroine and they got together, otherwise I don't know what he would have done, cause seriously he was really persistent for someone who met her only by coincidence before and had sex with her only once. Which I have to admit is sweet in a weird sort of way, not the stalkery kind but the really care about you and drool after you kind.

- The heroine was cute, not my first with a virgin hooking up with a male escort ends up with another guy scenario but it was really cute, right after when she realized who that stranger was. I understood her fears and hesitation on everything, I admit I'm a medium sized girl but believe I know people who keeps mouthing fatty to my face daily, s I understood the heroine and I didn't get annoyed at her hesitation, as a matter of fact I think she was really brave, opening up to him bit by bit, and trusting him with her inner most constant fears.

- I liked how cheeky the hero got around her, his insinuations were so obvious and some were cheesy but still cute.

- Liked how they were at the party at the end of the book, Loved Nancy and Tim, especially that gay conversation XD

- Liked how the heroine friends stick up for her, and have her back, especially that moment when they fought with the hero before they left for the party.

- Loved the fight scene at the end, and everything that came after.

- That bitch got what she deserves, especially the part were people saw her true colors. I really don't get it why is there people that mean, what's wrong with being nice to others? what kind of twisted satisfaction does those people get when they talk shit to others?
Overall, *thumps up*

The Mistake (Off-Campus, #2) By Elle Kennedy

The Mistake (Off-Campus, #2)The Mistake by Elle Kennedy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Honestly I didn't expect this book to be this way, from the synopsis I thought it would be all gloomy and angsty, but true to Elle Kennedy's writing from The Deal she made it to be amusing, entertaining, and lovely.

Since book one I liked Logan, actually I liked the quartet they were so cute and hot. I felt sorry for Logan being him crushing after his best friend's girl. And got made at him using another girl as a replacement of sort. But the getting to know each other minus the mistakes and later when the making making amends part were well worth the read, I just loved it, it pulled me in, a believe me it's been a while since a book really pulled me in without the intense urge to just skim.

In here I didn't find anyone female character that intrigued me or better put pulled me in to her, cause even the heroine is normal, Hannah from The Deal had the past incident in her hometown thing, but this one lived normally and was okay, nothing interesting around her, not as past or present. Just to make things clear I'm not dicing her she great, just for the fact that she made a perfect match with Logan, in a way the author balanced it out, he had the shitty past, she mends his heart.

- Liked the tasks part, especially the poem and the velvet chaise lounge XD

- Loved how he was so desperate t win her back, the author showed him more determined than desperate, and yet even if it did it won't look bad on him.

- I loved how the guys had each other's back, G & Logan that is.

- The scene Logan had with her father made me cry

- I loved many many more scenes, because Elle Kennedy *Bless her Soul* has an amazing way in bringing humor into the pages

- Loved the last chapter and the ending, to tell the truth I was hopeless about Logan's situation but thankfully it solved itself.

Overall, *thumps up* it's really nice for a change to see a guy who would ignore the world and faces the embarrassments face on with a shit eating grin on his face and do whatever to get his girl back
