What happens when the hopeless find hope ...at the wrong time?
Love is...Wasted.
MJ brings us the third book in the Steel Country series. This spins off from her Men of Steel books and we luckily get to see our favorite Men in this book. Grayson Falcon is the baby brother. He is the keeper of secrets that his older siblings can't even imagine. He is the spoiled little boy who got chocolate smuggled to him by his momma so he would settle down. He is the sweet child who has tried to keep his family together. He is a talented musician who humbly stays in the background because for him it's all about the music...not the fame.
I freakin' loved this book! In many ways, it is classic MJ--strong, witty heroine...super alpha male.....steamy s3x! Friends to lovers and a bit of destiny thrown in for fun. But this author can dump you on your a$$ with a turn of a chapter. Expect some turns in this one. Tissues needed as well.
I always love the author's sense of humor in all of her books. She brings us THE BEST chapter I've read in awhile: Bacon and Blowjobs. What follows would probably be on the wish list of quite a few men out there. My house included!!
As with the previous books, little Brand Falcon steals all the scenes he is in. Waiting for him to grow up and REALLY piss off Jase Steel. I also had a connection with Mandee in this book. She is somewhat sheltered and gives off the vibe of needing protection. However, what lies underneath is a strong, confident woman ready to LIVE. I loved how her and Gray together made each other stronger.
Very sad to say goodbye to this family. But promises of future novella's are coming down the line. Can't wait to see what these guys are up to! Fantastic story!
*Complimentary copy provided for an honest review.
When I have made peace with my anger, released it in tears and screams and allowed my body to float and release the tension, I simply float, eyes closed, kicking my feet ever so often, moving my arms when I feel I should and allow myself to drift toward reality’s shores.
I feel my foot drag across the lake’s floor and sigh as I push my feet down and stand, opening my eyes.
I gasp when I see him, Grayson, standing on the gravel, my dress over his shoulder and a towel in his hand. His square jaw, peppered with a few days’ worth of growth and slightly lighter than that on his head, his jaw is tight, and I see the muscles in it working. His eyes are so deeply connected to mine it renders me almost unmoving.
The way he looks at me is unrecognizable. Angry? Annoyed?
When his eyes leave mine after what seems like an eternity, then move to my lips, I wonder if there is something on them. Then they slowly, very slowly, move down my body. At this moment, I remember I am in a bra and panties, in front of Grayson Falcon, sexiest man alive.
I quickly sink down to a seated position and curl into myself, hiding myself, incredibly insecure and horrifically embarrassed.
“You’re blue, Mandee, and blue isn’t a good color on you. Come on; get up out of there.”
