review 1: The Woman Sent to Tame Him by Victoria Parker is the type of story I live for. I’m not ashamed to admit I LOVE alpha heroes, I love angst, I love fiery passion and I love the fireworks that are continually exploding and shooting sparks left right and centre. I love it when two characters spark off each other and I love the settings of worlds that are so far removed from mine it’s up to my imagination to how it all looks. Top that off with a splash of drama (pun intended) and intrigue; Finn and Serena’s story has this and much much more!Setting the scene, we’re entering in the exciting high octane racing world that Finn belongs to. He’s a world class racing driver (which you would know if you've read “A Reputation to Uphold”) who has the world at his feet... more… at the top of his game… can have any woman he wants… has more money than he will ever count and the most gorgeous looking guy one could ever see in the mags. To the outside world he’s amazing, the crowds love him but to those who know him he’s slowly losing it, crashing cars, out drinking all night and surrounding himself with nameless bimbos.Serena Scott, daughter of Finns boss… She’s grown up in a man’s world, motherless and now she’s brother less because of a drowning that occurred while her brother was away with Finn, or is that what really happened? Since the drowning Serena’s disgust in Finn regarding his wayward ways has grown and her resentment of losing the only close family member she has is festering. Now her race car prototype is under threat of sitting out another season unless she “fixes” Finn as per orders from her father. This makes the fiery redhead spit tacks and this launches us into Finn and Serena first meeting face to face since before the death of her brother.Finn plays the macho, how cool am I, walk on water ass but I loved him for it because with Victoria’s clever writing it was clear it was a front. He has he world on his shoulders, is hiding the truth from Serena and trying to fight his powerful feelings for the lil spitfire that Serena is. Serena is the girl we secretly all want to be, she has a wicked sense of humour and had me doubled over laughing. She too has always been interested in Finn but never thought anything of it, she’s just the boss’s nondescript daughter. However that’s not what Finn see’s… he sees a fiery beauty who for the first time in over a year has him interested in the female race again.My only bug was the amount of times Finn called Serena Baby. I thought he was trying to be all smooth so was surprised to read later she was the only one he'd ever called it. The only time I believed he was sincere re "baby" was when he said "baby girl", that in my world has meaning. Anyway that was all, and while I know these stories aren't real it was the only thing that I could think of that I would change.This March 2014 release had me at hello. I could not get enough of it and was not wanting the book to every end, even by chapter four. The story is fast paced, the characters have the best conversations, the angst level is high and the passion is off the charts. I laughed, I cried, I was speechless and my heart was racing. All this mixed in with the mystery of Serena’s brother’s death and the backstory that brings is incredible and I was honestly glued to the book from page one until the last page. As an off side, the preview of Michelle Smart’s What a Sicilian Husband Wants was enough for me to buy that too, so my credit card is getting well used this week!Victoria Parker has come in first place after the checked flag with me and I will be visiting Amazon for her previous two stories, which I was very pleased to discover Finn’s sister story is A Reputation to Uphold. In my opinion Victoria has written a story that I love reading by the legends that are Abby Green, Maisey Yates, Annie West, Sarah Morgan and Melanie Milburne and I will be rereading this one for sure!P.S Sorry for the long carry-on, I just loved this book and don’t know how to explain it in any shorter form ;)
review 2: This was fifty shades of awesome! Sexy and sassy and humourous one minute then tender and beautiful and heart breaking the next. Finn......OMG Finn! There is something about this authors heroes that get me straight in the heart. He was witty and the repartee was laugh out loud but underneath he was so tortured and dark and damaged and I cried for him, my god did I cry at the end! I loved serena too, a fantastic departure from the standard M&B heroine, i thought she was fascinating to read about. What a couple they made!. I don't want to give anything away because I think the tenseness of the story was huge plus but I have got to say this is not one to be missed. Just fantastic! less
