Not for me

Revisado: 07-22-24

This book just didn't hold my attention. I stopped reading several chapters in. I do love many of Lynn Austin's other books though.

Meh

This book really fell flat for me. I love romance but didn't need the descriptions of love making. I wish she had put more effort into a more robust storyline.

We love this book!

This is a great story on how to survive off the grid. I love how the author includes so much detail on how Ann made life work so well. I've always wished there was a second book.

Yikes

Revisado: 05-23-15

I read through the first two books in the series because this book was SO HIGHLY recommended... The first two books weren't that great, this book was awful. I didn't connect with any of the characters.

- Also, I listened to this book with the Audible version, I don't know why no one mentions this in their review, but the narrator makes the voice of Gus as if he's a loud old man who's lost his hearing aids. My ears hurt from listening to that character. Every time one of Gus's parts came up, the narrator would crank up his voice into the most obnoxious part. I'd have to turn the volume way down, and even then it was just so gritting and irritating I had a hard time soaking in whatever was being said. Even if Gus had been an old man who lost his hearing aids, the narrator could have done something else with that voice.

I wish the narrator chosen for the first book of the series had done all 3 books. Although I didn't like the book 1 all that much, Will Patton made that first book much more entertaining with his style of narrating.

Overall, this series was a waste of time...

Kinda Bland

This was a bland romance. I read it all the way through, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else.

Boring

Revisado: 12-02-13

The narrator was perfect for Flint and the other cyborgs, but she forgot to make the humans sound human, instead they sounded like cyborgs too. As far as the storyline, I don't know - it just kinda fizzled out. If your gonna have such a cool idea for a storyline then keep the action going and mix the romance in! There were a lot of moments that were dry and boring.

Ok read...

Revisado: 04-29-13

I've read other wolf like stories before and really loved them. This book was okay, but what really brought it down was the sometimes *high school* pack mentality (teasing, sneering, etc). I expect pack mentality with a wolf story, but the juvenile prodding and over excessive swearing really isn't the nature of a wolf. Wolves are quiet, dominate, protective, and gracious, sometimes anxious – but never hyena like. This really struck me as a book geared for a younger audience.

I really got a laugh out of Dominic and Dante though. Sometimes they said really stupid and inappropriate things, but a good addition to the book overall.

Wolf in Sheeps Clothing

Revisado: 04-28-13

This, so easily could have been a 5 star book. I've read a few books lately that were poorly written or aimed at a younger audience, so after cozying up with this book I was happy to find I had finally found a book that was *good*, and well written. I loved the characters, and Sparks had me wanting to keep reading.

I was a bit disappointed in the middle of the book, I'm not a fan of affairs and don't like it when stories include them - thankfully Amanda thought better of an affair with Dawson or leaving her husband Frank, and the star couple parted ways. I was hoping that the author would resolve the story by pairing the couple back together later in life by the death of her husband or some other way that wouldn't paint the soul mates badly - but instead, Sparks killed off the hero, Dawson...

I would have voted 4 or 5 stars for my review, but killing Dawson at the end killed it all for me. It feels like Sparks was playing a cruel joke on his readers by building up such a great feeling about this couple, and what a great guy Dawson was, and then writes in Dawson's murder at the end. The only thing Sparks left out was a "Muahahahaha....." at the end, because after reading this book it feels like that's what Sparks must have been thinking when he finished writing this book.

As for the narration, I would have preferred a female narrator because men never seem to be able to master the mushy tones of a romance, or do the female voices as well. But Sean Pratt did do the best narration of a romance I've ever heard a man do.

Meh...

Revisado: 04-27-13

Overall, the book was just long-winded, and seemed geared for a younger audience. I liked the personalities of the characters, but during the dramatic moments, they became stupid and unrealistic.

Another big problem was the monolog and main characters internal talk; it was just o-ver-kill... The author should have quit over-describing every detail of Tru’s thoughts, Jake, and the set up scenes, and move along with the story. The basic plot wasn't bad, until the author kind of wrecked the story with all that mind numbing brain chatter.

I wasn't a big fan of the narrator either.
