The Good. Loved, loved, loved the plot behind this one. It was interesting but also fairly decent reason to have our MCs spend time together, which I appreciated. Also Zane Tyler was so hot.
The Bad. The pacing of this book was incredibly fast. Both the plot, the relationship dynamic, and the sexual chemistry suffered because of how quickly this one went. It easily could have used another 25-50 pages I think. Also the prairie dresses.
The Smutty. Overall it was pretty steamy, but the rushed nature of it made it hard to really get into. I find insta-trust in BDSM books sort of difficult to connect with. Trust takes a long time to develop....more
The Good. Literally everything. But honestly Rufus and Abby are so freaking sweet and sexy. I want to re-read this book a♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Pink & Glittery Stars
The Good. Literally everything. But honestly Rufus and Abby are so freaking sweet and sexy. I want to re-read this book again immediately. The level of depth and growth behind these characters was unreal for such a short read. They were so REAL. And the progression of their relationship was really natural. Just a fantastic read overall.
The Bad. Nothing, unless you count me wanting more of these two.
The Smutty. SO. HOT. The sexual tension was off the charts. Like I would never read this in public because I would definitely be blushing. I want more (after a cold shower or two)....more
Sometimes you just find an author whose writing style, characters, and storylines click for you. Rebecca Grace All♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Jack and Lilly Forever Stars
Sometimes you just find an author whose writing style, characters, and storylines click for you. Rebecca Grace Allen is currently that author for me. As soon as I finished reading Her Claim, I knew that I had to get my hands on His Contract. This is maybe one of the best life choices I've made in quite a while. It's not often that I find a book I want to re-read as soon as I've finished the final word, but this was one of those books.
The Story. Jack Archer has been grieving the passing of his wife for years. The couple shared a deep connection of dominance, submission and trust. Lilly has had her trust in the dance between doms and subs broken. Her emotionally abusive destroyed her confidence. A shared friend group brings them together. Agreeing to a contract the couple decide to meet each other's needs. The only rules: keep it discreet and no feelings. Some things refused to be subject to rules. Can Jack and Lilly survive a breech in contract?
The Good.
→I could really, really relate to Lilly. Something about having your confidence destroyed by a crappy ex really rings true. The thing I loved though was that even though she was definitely scared she was still a fighter. She did what she needed to do to build herself back up again. She wasn't dependant on Jack to do this. Instead she knew she had his quiet support.
→Something about your partner being proud of you is like cocaine to me. It's like the ultimate display of love, respect, and genuine awe over what and who that person is. I could actually feel Jack's pride in Lilly.
→Jack and Lilly were so honest. Both with each other but also as characters. I love consistency in characters. So while they both showed an incredible amount of growth they really remained true to their characteristics and values.
→I found them so real. They both messed up. Badly at some parts. Instead of it being a complete and total melt down it lead to very difficult but honest conversations. They handled everything in their relationship like actual adults. It wasn't easy and had some brutal moments but it was real life.
→Jack's relationship with his son was really touching. Their dynamic was one of the most interesting and compelling outside of Jack and Lilly.
The Bad.
→Does not exist for me. It was a homerun. 5/5. Would re-read right now if I wasn't at work ignoring my work to write this review.
The Smutty.
→So fantastic. The emotional and physical connection between Jack and Lilly was so beautiful. I could legitimately feel it.
→The. Dirty. Talk.
→I loved, loved, loved the negotiation and respect that Jack and Lilly had for each other. It was so genuine. This was a good example of realistic kink in fiction. As far as I'm concerned RGA smashed it out of the park with this one....more
