“…if you start having feelings of intense dislike for the two main characters, it’s the perfect time to stop reading. ”

It started so well with this series! I loved the first book The Wingman, I tolerated the second book The Best Man but I just couldn’t bring myself to pass the 25% mark on the final book in the trilogy The Wrong Man. Because I didn’t finish the book, I am keeping this review short and give you the two big reasons that I couldn’t continue with this books:

1. The hero. I did not like him. At all. I think he was supposed to come across as a lovable playboy, but all I could see was a manipulator with some superficial charm. If you weren’t useful to him or he didn’t want to fuck you, then don’t expect any kind of decency. This was the hero I was supposed to fall in love with? I think not.

2. The heroine. This was an opposites attract romance so the hero may have been a womaniser, but the heroine was practically a virgin. She was the family good girl and does her very best to live up to that stereotype. I just found her blushing naivety disingenuous and irritating. When a 32 year old woman has to spell out S-E-X because she can’t say it out loud *shakes head* I just can’t go on.

Those were my main reasons for putting this book down for the final time, if you start having feelings of intense dislike for the two main characters, it’s the perfect time to stop reading.

Gosh, we all seem to be admitting our ages…and I hate that I am at the point in life when admitting my age is a “thing”…whodda thunk it? I was kind of hoping I would remain 21 forever. However, I have moved out of that New Adult stage of my life and am now strictly in the Contemporary Romance age zone of 28. I would prefer to be in an Urban Fantasy arena, but I don’t think I own enough black leather. However, I could probably squeeze into some PNR, I am fully prepared to give a horn job to my favourite demon, or suck on my sexy vamps…fangs and I am definitely up for some heavy petting with some fine looking shifters. Than again their’s always Sci Fi…I am fully prepared to do the right thing and help some poor alien race with more 6 packs than a supermarket repopulate their planet. Not that I am loose woman or anything.

Annnnnd I will stop myself there, before I start waxing lyrical about my love of historical romance and fantasy as well; no one needs to know about my elf fantasies. As you can tell, I adore and day dream about most romance genres, and my three big loves are 1) reading about romance 2) writing about romance and 3) talking about romance with my gals. Which, is why I love Under the Covers so much, I get all my bookish needs satisfied and don’t get judged when I talk about my favourite characters like they are real people. Which they are right?
