I Heart Book Review
Dating Delaney by K. Larsen
Review by: Dana Marie
4 out of 5 Stars...
This book is just provocative enough to be tempted to keep turning the pages. I read cover to cover without stopping once. I really enjoyed Delaney's sass and Jake's cool sweet demeanor. The characters are fun and quirky. You get wrapped up in the funny parts which you can completely relate to. I love this in a book.
This book also has the male factor. Meaning this is a good read that the male audience can enjoy too. This is a quality not all authors have the pleasure of tackling. There is no whining and it's not overly dramatic which would normally put off the male reader, in my opinion. The scenes are just hot enough and not over done. Delaney's sass and quick wit makes her easy going and likable.
The story seemed a little rushed though. I would have loved to see some areas of the book drawn out a bit more. I would have liked to have known more about Delaney and Claire's situation and struggles that landed them at home with Delaney's parents. Also, maybe a little more background on the "Dating Delaney's School of Hard Knocks courses" and some comparison to her past dating experiences. However, this does not affect the end result. Which is that it's a good story.
Dating Delaney is the perfect book for the reader looking for a fun, easy, and sweet read. I will definitely be checking out her other books and wish the author the best with everything that comes her way. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/828110329

Title: Invincible
Author: Alana Albertson
Genre: New Adult Romantic Thriller
Tentative Release Date: February 23, 2014
Goodreads: http://bit.ly/1jnY8wb
Synopsis:
I'll be honest with you—I'm no hero. Sure—the media tries to brand every Navy SEAL as some kind of Batman dressed in cammies. There’s even a line in one of our cadences—"superman is the man of steel, he ain’t no match for Navy SEAL." You've seen the movies—we're indestructible, invincible, invulnerable. But that night, the one you read about in the papers—all I really wanted to do was get laid.
One harmless fuck with a Curaçao whore—no strings attached. I picked her out of a lineup—wild, dark hair, long legs and a crooked smile. After she sucked me off, I relaxed back onto the creaky, cum-stained cot, thankful for the blissful moments she gave me when I actually forgot for a second the faces of my buddies who died because I made the wrong call, the tears of the children I couldn't save, and the eyes of the enemies I slaughtered during their last seconds of life.
But before I left, her green eyes peered into my soul. She whispered in a distinct So Cal accent, "My name is Annie Baylis. I'm an American citizen. I was kidnapped from a cruise ship five years ago. You're my last hope. Please save me."
One desperate plea. This wasn’t a Hollywood blockbuster or a New York Times best-selling thriller. I knew that this time there was no room for excuses, no margin for errors. I had one chance to put the cape on and be her hero.
