DNF at 81%About a quarter of the book was good. I liked Darcy's personality, I liked the chemistry between him and Caleb. It may not be gay-for-you... it is in reality a I-realize-I-am-gay-because-of-you, which is nearly as good as a g4u. Nearly, in my mind, but not entirely. The sex scenes are smok...

2 stars - 1 for some scenes, 1 for N'awlins Dang, what the hell happened here? I read my share of Mercy Celeste's work, and I already know that her writing and her characters are somewhat... unusual? I like that about her. Most of her stories really work for me, even with a lot of purple and cheese ...

Painfully bad hot mess. The writing, the plot. All over the place and insta-everything. I am all about all the endearments, and this book managed to push even my like for them. I'm not sure if that was because I was already annoyed or if ""baby"" in consecutive sentences repeatedly is too much for e...

I respect Mercy Celeste and will always check out what she's published. That being said I was so happy when this book ended. I think the work I'd use to describe it is 'convoluted!'

BR with the wonderful AlissaDNF at 38%I was prepared for a big chunk of cheesiness and some bad writing. What I got was even more terrible and I couldn’t continue without pulling my hair. And I want to keep my hair, thank you.

This is another one of those books that I had on my TBR list for a long while, Then someone gave me a nudge to take another look. Again, I am so glad I decided it was time. It is sweet and romantic. Darcy and Caleb are a wonderful couple and the brief but intense relationship that brings them toge...

So dazed & confused right now. Will probably just read it anyway to get if there's something or nothing to get.

This was good, but a few things kinda felt off to me. I thought the thing with Chester was added just to add some more drama. Why in the hell would you seduce a guy's GIRLFRIEND to try to get the GUY'S attention and seduce him? It just made no sense. I felt the Bailey stuff was unresolved, too. But ...

This book didn't take too long to grab my interest, and once it did, I was hooked until the end. Caleb is one super sexy, tattoo'd up, Cajun. I could totally hear his accent(s), and they sucked me in as quickly as they did Darcy. I loved every detail we learned about him and his past and just cou...
