Description
Hanna Boudreaux has lived in the small town of Willow,
Colorado all her life. The great-granddaughter of the town matriarch, she's
sweet, cute and quiet.
Too quiet.
Hanna has a moment of epiphany when she realizes her crush
for forever, Raiden Ulysses Miller, is not ever going to be hers. She sees her
life as narrow and decides to do something about it.
Raiden Miller is the town of Willow's local hero. An
ex-marine with the medal to prove his hero status, he comes home, shrouded in
mystery. It takes a while but, eventually, Hanna catches his eye.
But after all these years of Raid and Hanna living in the
same town, the question is, why? Is Raid interested in Hanna because she's
sweet and cute? Or does Raid have something else going on?
Review
O.M.G. I LOVE this author! Raid, as well as Knight from the
first book in this series, are seriously close to my dream man. The way they
talk, the way they treat their women, the way they handle themselves, they are
just perfect in my opinion.
I was very happy with Knight, it's now one of my favorite
books, but this one was even better than that one and its definitely on my
favorites list now too.
I admit, Raid is really similar to Knight but I still loved
him. He has some very distinct differences and those differences make him very
very HOTT! Trust me ladies, you want to read this book! To have a man like Raid,
well that would be heaven! He's big and bad and so freaking sexy!
(Sorry for all of the exclamation marks, I just can't help
myself)
I loved Hanna too! She's hilarious and totally adorable,
definitely not someone who you'd think would be with someone like Raid but they
fit and they fit well. OH. SO. WELL!!! It's hot, like toe curling, tummy
dipping, face heating kind of hot! ;) Her personality is the greatest! I mean she rides a girly bike (tassels and basket and all) and she says "Righty Ho!"
Other characters were lovable too. Hanna's Great Grandma,
who gave me a serious home sickness for my great Grandma (who I miss SO SO
much) because the similarities in her and my Nonie were scary similar. It's
like she wrote my Nonie into the book. Raid's sister and mom, some of the towns
folk were fun. And yes, Knight and Creed made an appearance, Knight only a small one,
but hey, he was there and it made me very happy!
Over all, I have to say this book is a definite win with me!
Great plot and dialogue, characters you can't help but get emotionally involved
with, and some seriously sexy bad boys, and I mean these guys are REAL bad
boys, which makes it so much better. The writing was much better in this book,
but even if it wasn't I still would have loved it. Every single thing about
this book was good for me and it put this author on my auto-buy list, which is
a very short list. :) Buy it, read it, love it! You'll thank me when you do!!

Description
Anya Gage has learned that to get anything good in life, you have to work for it. She has no expectations, no dreams.
Then she finds herself at a party where she doesn’t want to be and she meets Knight.
Knight Sebring knows who he is, what he wants and what he likes. And he gets it. But he never expected something as sweet as Anya Gage to wander into his bedroom during a party he did not expect to be having to borrow his phone.
Knight tries to leave Anya to the life she deserves of white picket fences and a man who watches football on Sundays – good, normal and clean. But when Anya comes to his nightclub and finds herself in a situation, he knows someone has to look after her, he can’t fight it anymore and he decides that man will be him.
Knight teaches Anya that, just as with the bad, in life you should also expect the good. And he teaches her this by giving it to her.
But Knight has a dark past and just as he desires Anya for exactly who she is, he fears when she finds out exactly the man he has become and always intends to be, she’ll leave him for good, normal and clean.
Review
I absolutely love finding a new author that I can
immediately fall in love with! Kristen Ashley is one of those authors! This
book had me laughing and crying and yelling and I mean seriously, my husband
thinks I’m a nut now for sure. This was one of those that even if I had to put
it down to I don’t know, take a shower or feed my kids, I couldn't I was
totally immersed in this dark and sexy story of the greatest heroine I’ve ever
read and the OH-SO-SEXY hero who is my #1 hero now! Just saying!
Knight is the best hero I've ever read!
Anya is one VERY lucky woman!!! LOL Seriously loved that guy! Every other word
is fuck, he's in total control at all times, he's intense, he's unconventional
as far as heroes go and OMG the man is so sexy! He's my dream guy! I could
totally go for being Knight's baby. And it’s a MAJOR plus that he’s a bad boy
who knows how to love, and I mean he’s a “real” bad boy! :)
Anya was a great leading character too. She's not the
typical weak whiny chick. She's strong, she knows it and she only takes as much
as she wants and no more. And I loved that instead of jumping to conclusions
the second time (the first was understandable) she went immediately to Knight
and got it all out there. That was so cool and totally what I would have done.
Characters like Anya are rare!
As far as I’m concerned, Kristen Ashley is hands down one of
my very favorites after reading this book. The story was great, action, drama,
suspense and some VERY sexy love scenes. The characters were fantastic, the
main characters especially but even the others too. I recommend anyone who enjoys a hot romance give Kristen Ashley's Unfinished Heroes a try! I promise, you won't be disappointed!
