I liked Ice (for the most part) (all of the cyborg have their asshole moments) and I ended up really liking Megan! It was hot and steamy. So long as you can get past the spoiler issues.
Please read the spoilers from my review of the first book so you understand my first issue below. /review/show...
Ice has been called upon OFTEN to impregnate females. He has 28 - no shit - 28 kids!!!! Including the one he just made a few days before finding Megan. YUCK!!!!!
ok - my other issue is that he frequently visits the robot whorehouse and she WATCHES him fuck the sexbots! And he likes to use his mouth. Just YUCK!!!! I can see her doing this - sort of like watching porn - but I just cannot see her actually wanting to screw him herself. But to each her own.
Getting past these issues and him almost killing her on orders from the Council, it was still a good book. Megan really pulled through for him in the end and saved the day.

I crossed the bridge. With regret. I loved golden dynasty. So I figured KA could make anything work. She did NOT. Sad to say I think she phoned in this book. And she went way too far with the physical violence and her sleeping with a man she thought was cheating on her. ...more

I wanted to give it a try....because I loved Jim though the entire series. And MAYBE I could have gotten passed the cheating that occurred 20 years before. Doubtful...but there was a chance.
But this heroine. Shit she just went on and on about how it was HER fault for giving up on them! For leaving him and not trying. Are you shitting me?!
Meh...certainly not the best LRJ series. I thought I would love Savage's book. But it was just ok. I get why shei'll write this for the entire series.

Manwhore to the extreme. Had another woman in his bed during the first scene between the h and H. No details. Enemies to lovers. Without the constant Manwhore to the extreme. Had another woman in his bed during the first scene between the h and H. No details. Enemies to lovers. Without the constant reminders of his whorish ways, it would have been a fun book. It was fun, but has a cloud over it as I just did not like him very much. But if you like historical sand can handle the “rakish� ways of the heroes, I think you will love this one. ...more

So first I cannot start my review without mentioning the cover. Holy shit that man is hawt!!!! Aside from being incredibly brave, he is just plain smokin�!
Now the book. It was really good. It took awhile to get started but I was totally invested. Admittedly a little scared since I went in blind. There are a ton of details about what is going on inside Orion’s head trying to deal with PTSD and being a double amputee. Most of which is not pleasant. Zeus� PTSD was heartbreaking. Their story was so very horrifying.
This is not insta love. But it is also not quite slow burn. Although there is not tons of sex in the book. For many very legitimate reasons.
Without any personal experience with what amputees go through it felt pretty authentic and much more “real� than other stories. It was not light and fluffy. But that made the reward all the better!
I don’t want to spoil the story because it certainly went in directions I did not expect. Although I guessed the connection pretty early. The story moves a little slow for the first 30%, then it picks up and then shoots off in a different direction. The resolution of the plot happens quite fast. We do get an Epilogue!
For my safety gang friends there are a couple of things that will bug a few of you but not most. But these are BIG spoilers so be warned (view spoiler)[
Orion is a virgin (traumatic childhood) never even kissed. Heroine is not - normal late 20s year old She has amnesia but actually has a boyfriend at home (we later discover) When she returns without Orion she continues dating him but no sex. Kisses though. Hence the safe with exception and the OM tag. I was pissed she did not dump him immediately! There are absolutely ZERO other women. Orion is a recluse There is at least a 6 month separation The story of what happened to Orion, Zeus and his unit is very horrible.

Vadim was too big of a manwhore for me. Isobel was a doormat. Cannot believe she would sleep with him when he was just trying to "make up" for a previously bad experience. Yuck! I have no faith in his faithfulness. I get he said he would be, but I just was not believing it. And Isobel was going to be a green eyed, insecure, paranoid monster. Not a good foundation for a relationship.

In the face of the heroine several times (before they are together). But since he has fucked practically every woman in eastern Canada I can only assume she will be running into his former fucks every day for life.
The story was ok. And it certainly had some huge plot elements to the overall storyline. So I am happy I read it. But I could never like Jase.
I also was not a huge fan of Ellen. While she was not a total doormat. She came close. I also worry a lot about her ability to make good choices for her son. I would not have exposed him to Jase without some time for him to prove he had changed his ways. I also would have told her baby daddy to go fuck himself.
This was pretty good. It was quick. The hero was a good guy. The heroine was also a good chick. I enjoyed them together.
But the author rehashed a plo This was pretty good. It was quick. The hero was a good guy. The heroine was also a good chick. I enjoyed them together.
But the author rehashed a plot from one of her other series that I HATE. The heroine has to help the hero date other women to find a mare. While they are both attracted to each other. And he had kissed her. It ended up being very short lived so this did not kill the book for me.
BUT there was another major pet peeve. How do big strong manly men manage to always get attacked by the OW who manages to get her tongue down his throat while he is unable to fend her off? All while the heroine watches. AND I would never be putting my own tongue in his mouth not 5 mins later. Because my vagina took over my brain and took away all self esteem. So anyway, things like this take down scores.
All that being said I really liked Jaxson and Olivia and want to read the stories about the brothers. ...more
