Release Day Blitz w/Review - UNTIL I'M YOURS

 

 

 

 

About UNTIL I’M YOURS

 

Mean girl. Goddess. Bitch. Supermodel Sofie Baston has earned those labels . . . yet they don't scratch the surface of who she really is. Before she can follow her own dreams, Sophie must do her daughterly duty and reel in a "fish" for her father's business-a tall, brown-eyed entrepreneur who immediately hooks her. He's a big guy with an even bigger heart . . . but will that heart be open to Sofie once her darkest secret is revealed?

To Trevor Bishop, Sofie is a beautiful mystery he would gladly spend his life solving. He figures her tough demeanor is armor against a world that's hurt her too many times. Then Sofie's deepest wounds are reopened by the powerful, ruthless man who made them. When she musters the courage to take him down, her world shatters. Now Trevor is determined to help Sofie pick up the pieces so they can build a future together. The challenge will be convincing his ice princess that it's safe to melt in his arms .

EXCERPT:

 

“Sofie, I’m sorry I didn’t call you back yet.” Jalene blocks my path to Trevor and Anna.

 

“Call?” I lean subtly to the left just in time to see Anna following Trevor into the coatroom.

 

The hell.

 

“Yes.” Jalene raises her penciled brows expectantly. “You asked me about a series of instructional barre videos for your new lifestyle website, remember?”

 

“Oh, yes.” I try to focus on the conversation, but can’t help wondering what’s going on in that coatroom. “Of course.”

 

“I was afraid I wouldn’t have time, but I can do it.”

 

“That’s awesome, Jalene.” I give a quick smile. “My assistant Stil will contact you to set up details.”

 

“Great job in class today, Sofie.”

 

“Thanks.” Having Trevor behind me added a little something to my usual enthusiasm. “I need to grab my coat. Thanks again, Jalene.”


I speed walk to the coatroom, jerking the door open like I might catch Trevor and Anna in the middle of a compromising position. They are both fully dressed, though. Both layered up for the cool morning and laughing over something I’m sure I wouldn’t find funny.

 

“Sofie, hey.” Anna leans into Trevor, her head well below his shoulder. “I was just inviting Trevor to opening night for my new show.”

 

“Really?” I lean against the wall by the door. “And what did Trevor say?”

 

“I hadn’t gotten around to saying anything yet.” Trevor walks over to stand in front of me, taking my hand. “Maybe we could go together.”

 

Just past his shoulder, the dismay on Anna’s face is almost humorous. I’m sure when she invited Trevor, she wasn’t thinking he’d bring me along. And he won’t be.


“See you Thursday, Anna.” I address her, but my eyes cling to Trevor’s. Will I have to

climb the man for her to take the hint?

 

“But, Trevor and I—”

 

“Thursday, Anna.” My eyes and words cut into her sentence like a razor blade.

 

“Goodbye, Anna.”

 

She’s out the door without further protest.

 

Trevor rests one arm against the wall by my head, his scent and the warmth of his body sheltering and stimulating me, making me feel safe and completely vulnerable at the same time. He stares down at me, waiting for my move. I’ve never taken a step in his direction, and the fact that I sought him out obviously pleases him, but he knows me at least well enough to guess there must be a reason.

 

I reach behind me to lock the door. Trevor’s eyebrows lift, but he otherwise remains still. I reach up to rest an arm on his shoulder, sliding my fingers into the short, soft hair close to his scalp.

 

“Let’s get straight to the point and not play games, Bishop.”

 

His hand, wrapping around my waist, cupping the curve of my back, lays warm and heavy through the thin fabric of my workout clothes.

 

“I don’t play games, Sof.” Trevor leans down to whisper in my ear. “I’m a man who goes after what he wants and usually gets it.”

 

He pulls back, dark eyes not laughing, close to sober.

 

“Am I getting what I want?” He drops his other arm from the wall, bringing that hand to my side, and pulls me close enough to feel his hard body through the sweatpants and hoodie he’s put on. “Say yes.”

 

I’ll do better than saying yes. I’ll show him.

 

I tug his head toward me until our mouths touch. Those full lips are softer than I imagined. He opens me up with his tongue, delving into my mouth slowly, like he’s savoring the first taste of me as much as I’m savoring my first taste of him

Until I'm Yours (The Bennetts, #4)Until I'm Yours by Kennedy Ryan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book # 4 in The Bennetts series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. It is part of an amazing and fulfilling series. Reader enjoyment and understanding are better when read in the order intended.

Trevor is fascinated with Sofie even before they meet. Afterwards, he cannot stop thinking about her. While he sees the beauty on the surface like everyone else, he also understands by looking into her eyes that there is so much more to her.

Sofie is immediately attracted to Trevor, even before they are introduced. The pull of him is stronger than any other man she has come into contact with. Too bad she is so scarred from the pain and the past where man have used her as a pawn.

I found this story absolutely fascinating. It shows more powerfully how looks can be deceiving. I think it also is telling of how even beauty can be a vice. I loved this addition to the series!

Forever is a heartbeat away . . .

Kerris Moreton knows how to make things work. Bounced from foster home to foster home as a kid, she adapted; when opportunity arose, she thrived. Now, about to open her own business and accept a marriage proposal, Kerris is ready to build the life she's always wanted. The only thing missing? A passionate connection with her would-be fiancé, Cam. Kerris wants to believe that sparks are overrated-until Walsh Bennett lights her up like the Fourth of July.

. . . but what about love?

As one of the East Coast's most eligible bachelors, Walsh enjoys financial independence, fulfilling work with his family's nonprofit, and plenty of female attention. But lately he's been distracted by the one woman he can't have. Lovely to look at and even sweeter to know, Kerris is the soul mate Walsh never thought he would find. The problem is, his best friend found her first . . .

Loving is not the problem
Loving You Always - Kennedy Ryan

This is the 2nd book in The Bennetts series. It continues with the lives of Kerris and Walsh and how they are doing - apart.  They have decided it is better to live different lives since Walsh cannot watch her have a baby and be happily married to his best friend.

 

Neither one of them functioning well without the other, their lives showing the strain.  Cam is on Kerris all the time about what he thinks she is thinking and doing.  Their marriage is basically over.  Now Cam is going to Paris, drinking, and moving on.

 

Walsh knows if he is anywhere near her he will challenge Cam and make a move on Kerris.  So he stays away.  Travelling the globe and trying to heal along with his dad.  They both lost the loves of their lives and do not want to be home.

 

When tragedy strikes, it all hits the fan and anyway.  Walsh comes home, even for a short time.  How much more can he take before he implodes or explodes in a big way?

 

This book is a better story if you have read the girst book in The Bennetts series. It can be read as a stand alone - but I promise - it is worth it to read in a row.  I cannot believe I survived the ups and downs these characters are going through.  I also love the story and the people too much to give up now.  Cannot wait for the next one!  I give this book a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Can you feel me?
When You Are Mine - Kennedy Ryan

Kerris and Walsh meet when he returns to his hometown after a long trip abroad.  He finally meets th woman his mother has been bragging about.  The woman about to marry his best friend.  Just one little problem...

 

She is the only woman he has ever thought about forever with.  He sees the same feelings mirrored in her eyes.  She just cannot past the promise of a future with his best friend.  Regardless of his warnings, they marry anyway.  

 

Walsh knows he must stay away.  They look at each other and it shows on their faces.  Too many people could get hurt.  He learns about the business from his father and tries to go on with his life.  Nothing dulls the pain.  Nothing.

 

Kerris is a woman of her word.  She has promised her husband she wants a future with him and she means to be faithful.  They have so much in common from the past.  They have scars others would not understand.  If only she did not dream of Walsh.

 

Such a heart wrenching story with an open and raw, almost gaping wound.  I felt the emotions right down to my soul.  It just makes you want to take the characters and smack 'em up side of the head.  I just have to give this book 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!
