This cover is OK. It's pretty generic in that it doesn't really represent the story in any way. I guess the model could be the heroine. I do like the blending work at the bottom, and I LOVE the typography used for the title. So a little bit of a mixed bag with this one.
This is one of those reviews that is going to be a bit bipolar. On one side of the fence, I enjoyed this one a lot. It was well written and nicely paced. The plot was interesting. There were some twists and turns. A tiny bit of angst. No OW/OM drama. Some hot sex scenes. A great cast of interesting secondary characters. Two (relatively) likable main characters. All wrapped up in a sweet epilogue.
That being said I did have a few issues with this one as well...
One, why in the hell did this heroine need to be a virgin? I am a bit tired of the whole “virgin-manwhore” trope. These two share a kiss and maybe one hour of conversation before the hero leaves town for eight years. Of course, during those eight years, he is whoring his way through bunches of women (even married ones). And of course, the heroine stays a shiny virgin. Now she didn't appear to be pining for him or saving herself for him. So why couldn't she have sex as well??
Two, the hero. I actually really liked Chase for the most part. He was pretty much all in from the start and was sweet, sexy and alpha. My issue is that the author kind of tarnishes him a bit with the introduction of details about what he has done for the secret brotherhood. Basically seducing married women and taping their sexcapades so the husbands had proof for their divorces. Of course, you can't seduce someone unwilling to be seduced...but eww. It kind of brought my love for the hero down a few notches.
Three, the whole “secret brotherhood” thing was a bit cheesy.
So like I said above even with those little annoyances I still found myself sucked into the story. I'm interested to see the other two brothers get a book and I would actually LOVE to see Luke get a book as well. One thumb and one pinkie finger up from yours truly.
