Okay now first, a little disclosure... I AM Trista Jaszczak's PA, however... since my reviews are honest and unbiased, here goes...
I received this book in the form of a PRE-Release Reviewers copy so I will not speak of any grammatical or spelling errors found within.
I had read Little Red previously however the author re-wrote this story and thus I needed to re-read it to be able to give a proper review.
In this story Samantha "Red" is running away from an ex boyfriend and ends up getting whisked off into the woods by the oh so sexy Ethan Parker. I loved how the story flowed throughout and you didn't get lost going from one viewpoint to another as Trista loves to let you see both sides of her stories. If you have read my previous review you will know that in the first version it threw me for a loop for a while with the dual POV, however, this time it was easy to tell and I knew I was going from one character to another. This book is definitely not for your children to read... fairy tale or not this book has a very adult theme to it. There are very well written sex scenes in this book and even though some of them go fast and sudden(for the characters..) You don't feel like there are details that are overlooked such as placements, or any small details that one might be looking for in such a detailed sex scene. There was also more details in the development of each character as well. Each little detail had an explanation that turned out in the story throughout so that nothing was overlooked.
I would recommend this book to anyone that likes semi-erotic paranormal romances with a very alpha male persona throughout.. because these Parker Brothers all have a little Alpha in each of them!!
I give this book 5 out of 5 shields!!
Excerpt
I’d misjudged my mileage, and with no gas gauge, I’d had no way of telling when I’d run out of gas. I’m luckily able to roll my bike to a slow and steady stop off on the shoulder of the road. I shake my head, wanting to give myself a good hard kick for not being more careful. I glance around as I hop off. Figures I am surrounded by nothing but woods and, my guess, swamps, and am nearly twenty miles away from any town. This isn’t exactly what I had in mind when I said I would make use of the tent in my saddlebags. I let out an exasperated sigh as I undo the chinstrap to my helmet, yanking it off my head, and let my hair fall around my shoulders. I bite down on my lip and contemplate. I can’t leave my bike here on the side of the road. I can’t walk 20 twenty miles and back just for gas with it already so dark out, either. I have no choice. I’ll walk my bike into the woods and set up camp. People do this all the time, right? No big deal. It’s not like the big bad wolf will jump out and get me.
I gaze into the woods. Darkness has already fallen over the trees. They stand silent and still, as even the animals, it seems, have all gone quiet for the night. I laugh off the thought of the big bad wolf. I guess it’s alligators I have to watch for down here. Or, is it crocodiles? I shiver, put on a brave face, and straddle my bike once more. It’ll take all my strength to waddle it down the ditch and into the woods over the uneven terrain. I figure a short way off the side of the road and into the woods and I should be fine. Enough to be out of the line of traffic, but not enough to get myself terribly lost.
As I wiggle the bike down the small slope, I begin to exert myself on the flat, but rough terrain as I push the bike forward, throwing my petite body into it as much as I can. I grunt as I give one more strong push forward. The bike lurches along slowly as my helmet clangs against the already scratched black paint. I groan, aggravated with myself more than ever for letting the gas tank get bone dry.
“What in the hell are you doing?”
I stop dead in my tracks. I hadn't heard a single footstep, not even a twig. I swallow hard and throw myself off the bike, flipping out the kickstand as I do.
I turn slowly to see a rugged looking man staring hard at me. His dark washed jeans are splattered with dirt and debris at the bottom, suggesting that he has been romping in the woods beyond. His heavy boots are caked in a layer of thick mud that’s starting to dry in certain spots. He places his hands on his hips, making his leather jacket open to display a well-fitted tee shirt; defined chest muscles are visible even under the moonlight. His gray eyes shine and shimmer under the light of the full moon as they glare at me in an almost threatening way. No, not threatening. Warning me of something, and somehow worried. His brown hair is styled fairly nice, which is surprising considering the five o’clock shadow on his face. He’s much larger than me. Well, almost everyone is larger than me, but he must be over 6 feet tall. Huge, compared to my tiny 5’5” frame.
