Reckless

Reckless by Priscilla West

My rating (out of 5 stars):

1 star—I didn’t like it.

Description from Goodreads.com:

“I’d seen bad boys before, but he had it all and more. The rippling muscles covered in tatts, the piercing eyes hiding dark secrets, the silky voice that could make a girl come with just a whisper . . .

He was exactly the type of guy that would get me in trouble, but when he jumped off the stage, inked skin glistening with sweat and breathed his seductive words into my ear, I couldn’t resist the temptation.

It was supposed to be the best one-night stand of my life, but fate didn’t let it play out that way. Things happened. I got upset. I got hasty. And worst of all, I got reckless.

After that disaster, I thought it was the last I’d see of him. But what I didn’t know was that I’d started something.

Something that could shatter the very thing I had worked so hard to protect.

I should have known back then that the most seductive things in life are also the most dangerous.”


My Thoughts:

Not a fan of this book. Another “partial” book leading into another book, and definitely not worth continuing into multiples! Once I finished, the next day I already couldn’t remember anything about this characters.

Reckless

Reckless by Skye Jordan

My rating (out of 5 stars):

2 stars—It was okay.

Description from Goodreads.com:

“A couture wedding dress designer to the rich and famous, Lexi LaCroix’s image means everything. But crossing paths with a sexier-than-sin, bad-boy biker makes Lexi realize how much living she’s sacrificed for her success and one touch is all it takes to threaten her carefully choreographed life. When that touch fills far more than just Lexi’s physical needs, she finds herself torn between the career she needs and the bad-boy she craves.

Jax Chamberlin gave up the superficial life of acting for the thrill of running his own stunt company years ago. But a recent betrayal proves he’s still too close to the limelight to find a woman who doesn’t plan to use him as a stepping-stone to success. When the charming and mysterious Lexi offers him a totally anonymous hook-up during an out of town trip, Jax accepts. Only Lexi is more sextacular than charming, and Jax wants more.

But Lexi’s got a major hang-up over his renegade lifestyle, and Jax isn’t willing to change his ways. Especially not when he discovers who she really is. Because if she finds out his connections could catapult her to the top of her career, he’s afraid the fantasy woman he’s falling for might just end up like all the other gold-diggers. And this time, it’s not just his bad-boy reputation at risk, but his heart, too.”

My Thoughts:

I wasn't interested in these characters. The plot was overdone. There were too many misunderstandings, too much drama and the emotional connection between the characters was lacking substance.

Reckless

Reckless by Anne Stuart

Stuart is a new romance author for me. This is one of her books within the series “House of Rohan.”

Adrian Rohan is a reckless man. He spends time seducing beautiful women and then running away from them. Enter Charlotte Spenser. She is a quiet, contained woman, not interested in passion. She has been intrigued by Rohan since she first saw him, but she isn’t sure why.

I found myself drawn to the characters. This is a typical plot—the bad boy vs. the plain, boring woman. But Stuart did it justice by making it dark, with enthralling detail and good characters. I love a dark plot done well.

Mindless, but enjoyable!
