Swans Book Review

At first I was upset because I thought the ending of the book came first but then I realized that it was brilliant. Miss Jackson skipped the falling in love story and went straight into the grovelling and apologizing stage to get the girl back. Lance Montgomery was a huge arse and Dr. Asia Fowler blinded herself with her past pain but as nice as their love story was I loved Lance's sister, Carrie, love story much better and I thought that her story overshadowed her brothers. I more wanted to know what was going to happen next with Carrie and Conner (don't they sound cute!). Miss Brenda made me feel the pain and the joy of her characters and I cannot wait to find another of her books in the library to read.

I love flowers but not as much as Miss Emmaline Grant, she lives for them.  Emma is part owner of Vows, which is in the wedding business and Emma's part is with the flowers.  The bouquet, the table center piece, once it involves flowers, Emma does it and does it with a fairy tale quality. Growing up with a love story like her parents, Emma's head constantly romanticizes everything.  She keep looking for Mr Right and she found him in Jack. Jack Cooke is a enjoy them now and leave them before they get to close kind of guy.  His mindset encourages him into not wanting or needing a relationship knowing that they never last and people get hurt. With Emma, there was no holding back and he was constantly hesitating when she says or does something that he thinks violates his space. He constantly hurts Emma unintentionally and Emma feels as if she has to frequently hold back her feelings so as not to scare Jack off. Shit hit the fan when she couldn't take ho...

Leah Sullivan is a perfectionist who surprisingly never finishes anything and runs away from her problems; which is really weird since perfectionist always want to achieve everything they set out to do and drive their family and friends crazy with their OCDness.  Jack Harper is a hard working firefighter who finds himself cast in his deceased father shadow, always feeling like he has to work harder and go down in a blaze of glory, just like his dad did.  Seeing his mother fall apart after his dad’s death, Jack swore never to get involved in any series relationships to avoid the emotional pain his job can and will cause. Jack and Leah have been friends since childhood and they come up with this plot of pretending that they are in a relationship to make his mother feel better and to stop worrying about Jack and just focusing on getting better , but the plot came a little too serious for the both of them to handle. They tried starting a relationship in the past bu...

Like father like daughter has been a popular saying for many years about girl who take after their father’s, in some cases this is good, but not in this one. Alicia Black now Alicia Sullivan did not want o end up like her father in a number of ways, such as lusting after money and infidelity.  She did not like all the women he used and all the pain he caused  and swore that she will learn from her father’s mistakes and take her wedding vows seriously and be faithful to her husband. Within the first six months of their marriage, her marriage was already falling through and don’t think I am biased but it is all her fault.  Alicia has always been a shopaholic and growing up that was alright because her father could have afford for her to but whatever she wanted, now being a married woman without her father monthly allowance; a husband that makes a decent salary and no job, Alicia still feel the need to shop till she drops and then some. Feeling like her husba...

Five steamy stories about African decent couples falling in love and getting through the perils of life.  This book includes: 1.       Main Agenda 2.       Strictly Business 3.       Irresistible Attraction 4.       The Hunter 5.       Extreme Satisfaction These stories are extremely steamy and not to be read if you are 17 and under.  This is a book purely about how a man’s and a woman’s body react when in close proximity of each other and chemistry happens that has them both feeling hot and bothered. In one of the stories, Miss Jackson tried something new, well new to me anyhow, she created a love story with no drama what so ever.  No ex-girlfriend or boyfriend, no stokers and no emotional drama.  Two weeks of pleasure and walk away and then they came back together, admitted that they loved each...

OH MY GOODNESS, this book was so frustrating.  At first it was alright, and then I got bombarded with so many back stories that I could not for the life of me remember who’s story went to whom and names was coming at me so fast I kept forgetting them, more than usual. From what I understood a ninety-nine year old Ransom Perdue, when he was young, fell in love with a wife woman and she fell in love with him, and back in the day not only was it frown upon, you could get killed for that.  This love produced a baby girl and here is where it got really confusing, someone wanted the baby to die, either her father or her brother, and somehow the baby ended up being given to a servant and someone went crazy and then she found out she was not crazy and got her daughter back.  See, confusing, to me any way;  maybe this book is a series and you have to read those books to understand what the heck was going on in this book.  If you read this book and understand...

Men are so foolish, always running off to war or starting a war for things that can easily be resolves by negotiations and not being greedy for what is not there’s.  They have no consideration for the family, friends and responsibilities they leave behind just so they can go off and get themselves killed in the war. This is my view as well as what Lady Sorcha Hay taught when she followed her foolish brother as well as her laird to the borderline to bring him back home.  Instead she found out that her brother was taken for ransom and her people have no means of affording that since they barely have a penny to their name.  In other to save her brother she kidnaps a wounded solider on the battle ground to demand a ransom to save her brother. Sir Ruari Kerr was most grateful that he was rescued from impending doom even if it was from a women and gratitude soon turned in to outrage when he found out the their treachery.  He vowed to get back at them as soon as...
