“Misfit” by Elle Kennedy

 


Well that was unexpected! To be honest when I start reading this book, I was expecting something very different. It was weird to see so many POVs but, after a while I got used to it. But because of the multiple POVs, I can’t say that we had main characters. Or, even better, everyone is a main character!



RJ is a hacker and he finds himself in a weird situation when his mother married a very wealthy man and now he is in a private school with his new stepbrother. He’s not used to rely on people but soon he finds himself not only with his new step-brother and some very morally grey friends, but with a girlfriend with a very annoying ex!

Sloane is one of a kind type of woman. Definitely not an easy character, she is very strong but she’s tired to act like she can handle everything all the time. I liked her a lot because she’s not some damsel in distress and she’s not afraid of her sexuality!

Fenn is the stepbrother and a young man that hides a lot. His relationship with his father in non-existent, he seems to really care about Casey (Sloane’s sister) but he holds back and he truly likes his new step-brother. But his secrets are too many and this don’t look good for him.

Lawson is kind of mysterious. He’s sexualization personalized! He’s bi and he’s not afraid to use it to his own advantage. To be honest, I believe that this one has more depth that he’s let on.

Now about Silas… Well, I don’t know what to say about him. Although, he seems like the most normal, it’s easy to see that he has secrets and he makes some questionable decisions. The jury is still out on him!

Well, it was a very nice read with a lot of mystery and many funny and hot moments! I will read the second one too!

“The Dare” by Elle Kennedy

 


A very nice read! I really didn’t know what to expect of Conor’s story and it took me by surprise. Conor and Taylor were an unexpected couple but an amazing one!



“I want you. I’ve wanted you since the moment I watched you cross the room at that party.”

Conor is amazing! He’s funny, sexy and very charming. But behind his carefree behavior, there is hurt and sadness about his past life. Every woman wants him but he wants something different, something real. When Taylor comes to his life, it’s time for the world to see the real Conor and for us to fall in love with the main character!

“You’re ridiculously attractive, Taylor.” This time when he speaks, I don’t doubt his sincerity, if perhaps his sanity. I suppose someone like him doesn’t get around so much by being picky. “Don’t spend any more time believing otherwise.”

I liked Taylor a lot! She’s cute and funny but she’s very insecure about her appearance, especially about her body. To be honest, I empathize with her and I know it’s pretty hard to deal. Conor makes her feel beautiful and desired and he helped her be more open and it was amazing to see!

Like the previous books, I absolutely loved all the hockey players! When they went all together in the mall for shopping, was hilarious!

It was a great read for all the fans of this genre!

“The Play” by Elle Kennedy

 


This is the third book in Elle Kennedy’s series and it’s as good as the previous two. I love Elle Kennedy’s writing style and I am enjoying so much her books!



“No one has a harder job than the man who comes after the cheater.”

This is the story of Hunter and Demi. We met Hunter in the first book but I have to admit that he’s better now. He’s definitely more mature, captain of hockey team and dedicated in his quest to be a more responsible person. I liked him because he has a great sense of humor and he’s a very good friend. It was funny to see him trying to be celibate.

“You mean more to me than hockey,” he says simply, and damned if that doesn’t make my heart expand. “Get it through your stubborn head.”

Demi was the kind of woman that everyone is drawn to her. She’s a very outgoing person and I loved her sense of humor and the way she was expressing her sensuality. Also, it was good to read the way she confront her cheating boyfriend. And, thankfully, a woman who is not afraid to eat!

I have to say something important. So far in this series, I like all the FMCs because they are strong, independent women, smart and sassy who are not afraid to accept their sensuality. They have confidence and they are successful in their fields.

What I liked most in this book besides the romance? The fact that it made me laugh! The whole story with the egg and the hockey team was hilarious and the relationship between Hollis and Rupi? Simply perfect!

So, I loved this story!!!!
