Trouble by Samantha Towle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Samantha Towle- author of my all-time FAVORITE series The Mighty Storm has once again given me a lust-worthy book boyfriend. Jordan Matthews is gorgeous and he knows it. Let me tell you folks, there are far worse things in life than a cocky alpha male.
Mia Monroe, Mia Monroe…what a sorrowful childhood you’ve been given. In Fifty Shades of Grey the male protagonist describes himself as “5o shades of fucked up”…if that was the case poor Mia Monroe is probably 5,000 shades of fucked up. Referring to some of her memories as cringe-worthy doesn’t seem to do them justice. The fact that she’s a semi-functioning adult is a nod to the resiliency of the human spirit. I’m usually the sadistic SOB chanting for authors to add more angst and turmoil in their plot lines. In this case I feel like handing Samantha Towle a voodoo doll and a margarita so she can channel some of her angst away from poor Mia.
This was the perfect, angst-riddled literary nugget to sink my teeth into this summer. I encourage you to do the same. Happy reading my fellow book lovers!
