It's here! The best book (in my opinion anyway) of the series. Oh how I love Luke Stark. **sighs** I want him!Ava's decided all men are scum. Yup. After having nothing but trouble from them, she's decided the only serious relationship she's ever going to have again, is with a vibrator. hehe
She's also decided that she's going to help her best friend, Sissy, get dirt on her cheating no good Husband. Since she's known Luke since they were kids, she goes to ask him for help. And backs out the last minute. She does not need a mans help. Luke disagrees. He knows Ava's gonna find herself a shit load of trouble, so he follows her. And it's a darn good thing he does, cause' gunshots are fired people!
In true Hot Bunch style, he moves Ava in with him, doesn't even give her the choice. Nope.
“Later,” I said to the room at large as I didn’t want to appear rude.
For some reason this was met by Shirleen saying, "I’ll put money down that she’s living with him in four days.”
My confused gaze swung to Shirleen but she was looking at the movie star glamour girl who was looking at me.
“Three days,” Glamour girl said, smiling at me and I thought, in other circumstances, I would have liked to meet her.
“A week, she’s got spirit,” The other black lady said. She was smiling at me too, not like I was the butt of some joke, but in a kind way.
I opened the outer door.
Before it closed behind me, I heard Luke say strangely, “Tonight.”
Then everyone laughed.”
Ava's determined that she will not fall for Luke, that her silly childish crush on him died years ago. Yeah, you keep telling yourself girl!
Ava's not afraid to fight dirty..Luke's not afraid to fight dirtier. Nuh uh. He has handcuffs and he does use them. I loved these parts! I laughed so damn much!
Not only does Luke have to keep Ava safe, he has to make her understand that everything her own damn family ever said to her was a load of shit, and that he will never intentionally hurt her, not like the others.
“I'm not stupid, I know your heart's involved in this and I've never, not once in all the time you've known me, given you the idea that I won't handle it with care.”
I swooned, and I did it hard! I want my own Luke, sexy half smirk and all ;)
OH! And how good was the whole Good Ava/Bad Ava thing? I know a few people didn't like it, but I thought it was so freakin' funny!
“Oh my goodness, Luke’s massaging your arm! Isn’t that sweet? Good Ava trilled in my ear.
Jump him! Rip his pants off! Bad Ava shouted in my other ear.”
So, writing wise? Perfect. I cannot find fault with it, but then again, I usually do! A little..deeper .. that the others, but still filled with the expected drama and humor.
5+ stars!
