        Thoughts

Keeping Baby Safe

I don’t know about you, but I’m over, or maybe it’s more that I never really cared for it in the first place, whichever, it’s the type of book that annoys me no matter how much I end up enjoying it, and so even though it was good, and this one was, I probably won’t remember that part in the long run to memory of it.

It’s about two people who get locked together, fuck, part as if what they had was nothing and never going anywhere, even though they both kinda want that but aren’t willing to say it.

Then, by chance, they end up smashed back together where they spend the whole book going over why this won’t work. Or how much they want it to work but...alas, I can’t be the one to grow a pair first, the other has too.

The worst, I think is her, especially since she’s hiding something huge, and even though she keeps it secret even when her concuss is telling her to spill, she has the right to tell him off for the fact that he found out,

Like it was his fault she ditched him before the whole house was searched (yeah, it wasn’t only the baby part that got her pissed)

The worst is that I actually liked the book, it was face passed, had no moment that, even though I got annoyed at the way things were going, I didn’t want to stop reading it. I didn’t lose any interest in the characters, plot of outcome, which is a big deal since I’m really more a paranormal fan, than contemp.

It also got me curious about the other stories in the series, or more importantly the next one, and Webb’s writing style was good enough that I would actually go and look for that said book.

Defending The Rancher’s Daughter

This one is sweet. The sweet that gets tears staining your eyes at the end of it.

It’s about, well, attempted killing. That one was easy, we—I—could tell who it was from the start, and I liked this fact, I like that the mysterious tension, though high, wasn’t what the story was about, it was just a way for them to get together again, after so long being apart, and finding out what they were really looking at why back then was something more than what they thought.

I actually enjoyed the crime story threw this. Which was more than I ever thought I would. Really, the sexual tension between then, and the mystery of the whys, rather than the who, was bigger and something more than what there normally is.

Anyway, I really enjoyed this story, though it wasn’t like the first one, I don’t think much about the series, though writing style and the way she thoughts about the elements of solving the crime was stella and would be the reason I would chose to read on in this series.
