Sample Mondays: Unspoken by Jen Frederick

 
Sample Monday is a meme hosted by Salacious Reads. What a great way to share novels you have downloaded onto your e-reader to give you a taste before you buy it.
 
 

I do not remember how I found Unspoken but read the first review and said  "Alpha Male" downloaded the sample, read and ASAP had to have more.  I am liking it, Jen writing voice is smooth and enjoying Bo and AnneMarie but I am about 46% into it and  nothing is wowing me yet. Bo so far is a swoon worthy, charming, sweetheart but I have yet to see his "Impulsive. Unthinking. Hot tempered" side.  He has says many times he wants to kick some Lacrosse guys butts that have started bad rumors about AnneMarie but have yet to act on it. I am loving the friendship they are building and  the fun bantering between them. I am just waiting for that wow moment where I can not put it down.

Unspoken (Woodlands, #2)

Sampler: Amazon

Whore. Slut. Typhoid Mary.

I've been called all these at Central College. One drunken night, one act of irresponsible behavior, and my reputation was ruined. Guys labeled me as easy and girls shied away. To cope, I stayed away from Central social life and away from Central men, so why is it that my new biology lab partner is so irresistible to me?

He's everything I shouldn't want. A former Marine involved in illegal fighting with a quick trigger temper and an easy smile for all the women. His fists aren't the danger to me, though, it's his charm. He's sliding his way into my heart and I'm afraid that he's going to be the one to break me.

Impulsive. Unthinking. Hot tempered.

I allow instinct to rule my behavior. If it feels good, do it, has been my motto because if I spend too much time thinking, I'll begin to remember exactly where I came from. At Central College, I've got fighting and I've got women and I thought I was satisfied until I met her.

She's everything I didn't realize I wanted and the more time I spend with her, the more I want her. But she's been hurt too much in the past and I don't want to be the one to break her. I know I should walk away, but I just can't.

A man determined to protect her…

Caleb Martin is no stranger to hazardous situations. He's seen enough bloodshed to last two lifetimes. When an innocent evening takes a dangerous turn, Caleb takes matters into his own hands. If she wants his help, it’s his rules, his way. Period.

A woman who won’t be controlled…

When it comes to relationships, Samantha keeps things casual, unassuming. Safe. Caleb Martin is far from safe. His ‘my way or the highway’ attitude pushes all the wrong buttons, and she’d sworn no man would have that kind of power over her again.

A hunger that won’t be denied…

Protecting Samantha from the man that stalks her shouldn't test his patience—or his control—but her smart mouth and hot Irish temper stoke the fuel of his desire. She is pure sin—a distraction he doesn’t need, a temptation he can’t resist.

Despite their animosity, Caleb has starred in her fantasies for years. His ruthless sensuality proves to be more potent than she ever imagined. As Caleb masters her body, Samantha must keep a tight grip her heart.
 
Thoughts:
Yes I posted a few weeks back but had to post again for L4C as not only does Caleb deserve it but yes lovelies got a synopsis. I am on cloud nine as it is Caleb and Samantha's story. OMG it sounds so good.

I am a sucker for a raw, gritty, angst, dark, Biker MC novel and got that in Seize Me.  I did  not hate or love it for me I just Liked It. I felt like I read this before in Undeniable and Chaos series. Now Seize Me started off awesome and could not put it down. The sexual tension in the beginning was off the charts hot. I was crushing on Braxxon big time. But there is a point where I felt like at times some things were pushed to make it raw and dark and was very easy to put down and pick back up. Some things he did, really did not bother me but it was the effects with the characters that bother me. I wanted to feel their pain, sadness etc. and just was not there. But then there were times where my heart broke for Braxxon and Winter. Loved their playfulness and the sex scenes are scorcher-panty-changing. Loved that she is just as sexy in the bedroom as he is. Braxxon is one badass-dirty talking- tattooed biker babe with an alpha male attitude and there were times he was a sweetheart in his own way. I loved his lip piercing. Winter is a strong will character and felt her pain at times but then sometimes she was a little over the top with her badass attitude. I loved that Crystal wrote very graphic scenes and that are not faint for the heart. Liked it enough to continue with the series.
