WRECK MY WORLD

Title: Wreck My World
Author: Victoria Ashley
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 25, 2019

BLURB

“The feeling I have in this very moment, after not seeing her for so long, will haunt me forever, reminding me why I left to begin with.” 

For as long as I can remember, Easton Crews has been off-limits. As much as it kills me, that’s never going to change.

After his little disappearing act three years ago, then suddenly showing up out of nowhere, I shouldn'twant anything to do with him. 

It doesn’t matter how beautiful he still is. Or how close we once were. It shouldn’t matter that my entire body lights on fire with need whenever he gets close. 

He chose the worst possible time to leave without so much as a goodbye. 

However, just like the first day he walked into our home, I'm drawn to him, needing him near me just as badly as I need air to breathe, and I can't stand it. 

I want to hate him. I know I shouldhate him. But hating him is the last thing he'll let me do. 

I push, he pulls harder, until I'm completely wrapped up in him, my mind lost in the one person who is forbidden—the one person I’ve always loved, even when he belonged to someone else. 

Easton was never meant to be mine. It took me years to come to terms with that and now that I finally have, he's here, right in front of me, more irresistible than ever. 

The part I fear the most about that—he’s the one person capable of completely wrecking my world. 

“I’m not leaving until you take all of your hate out on me. Let me feel it. All of it. Every dirty look. Every nasty word. I will have it all before I leave. Stop hiding from me.”

EXCERPT

She stops and turns around when she hears my boots crunching in the gravel behind her. The cold look in her eyes is almost enough to freeze my damn heart. “Don’t you dare follow me, Easton. Turn back around and go inside.” With pained eyes, she points at the building and screams. “GO!”
      After yelling at me, she immediately turns back around and starts walking again to get away from me.
      Ignoring her demand, I stalk toward her, wrapping my arm around her waist right as she attempts to straddle her motorcycle. 
     “You’re not driving home,” I say, while squeezing her waist and pulling her against me. “I get that you want fast right now. That you need a rush to clear your head. Trust me, I know you. I’m the one that got you addicted, but you’ve had too much to drink.”
      “You don’t need to worry about what I do,” she growls out in anger, before elbowing me in the stomach in an effort to get away. “Dammit! Let me go. I need to leave. I can’t be here.”
      She’s still trying to fight me, so I carefully lower her to the gravel and trap her under my body, pinning one of her legs underneath mine. “Give me your keys,” I growl, an inch away from her lips. “Don’t make me force them out of your hand. I can pin you under my body all night if I fucking have to, Kota.”
      “Yeah, I don’t think my brother would like that much.” She attempts to buck me off with her hips, but it does nothing. 
      I smirk down at her and push my hips closer against her body. “Fight me all you want. I’ll win.”
      “Fuck you, Easton!” Breathing heavily, she lays still and fights to control her breathing from below me. After a few seconds, her eyes meet mine, and she grins. “Fetch.” She tosses her keys across the parking lot and then pushes my chest, speaking against my lips. “Now. Get. Off.”
      I release a hard breath and take a moment to analyze her face. It feels like forever since I’ve seen it.
      Her big, gray eyes are framed by long lashes and her dainty, freckled nose is now pierced and flaring out in anger.
      Catching me off guard, she pushes her way out from under me and closes her eyes as she runs her hands over her face and lays back. “Just leave me be. I don’t want to be anywhere near you. I’ll have Hope take me home.”
      “You really mean that?” I question with a tight jaw. “You still hate me after three damn years?”
      “How can I not?” she bites out, before jumping to her feet, ignoring my hand as I reach it out to help her. “You tore my heart out. Now get out of my way.”
      I bite my lip, holding in my anger as she pushes past me and disappears inside.
      I’m still standing out here with my hands in my hair when she walks back out a few minutes later following Hope to her old, beat-up truck.
      My heart pounds relentlessly as I watch them hop inside and drive away.
      You tore my heart out. 
      Those five words hurt like hell. She’s always been good at making me feel.

Nikki’s Review:

I’m going to start this review with what I liked about this book. Dakota, the heroine, was a kick ass kinda person. She wasn’t afraid to get dirty and give the men in her life a run for their money. Easton, the hero, was pretty yummy. I get the feeling he was suppose to be more alpha, and he was sometimes, but he was mostly just sweet. Don’t get me wrong, sweet is great! I wouldn’t kick him out of bed for eating crackers!


Now for the stuff that kinda made my eye twitch. The connection between the lead characters was there, but it wasn’t always obvious. In fact, it was frustrating for a long time. Things were slow to get going in this book, and Dakota was kinda mean at first. It took me a couple of days to get through the first 30% of the book. 


I really wanted to love this book. The blurb sounded right up my alley, but I struggled a bit to connect with Dakota and Easton. I wanted things to move a bit faster. The writing was good, but the story didn’t pull me in like I was hoping. However, I’m intrigued enough by this authors writing that I may have a peek at her backlist!

Nikki’s Review:

Geez, this series just keeps getting better. I adored the first book, but this one, I REALLY loved! I imagine that’ll happen with each book that comes out in this series.


I really admired Tessa. She ran away and changed everything about herself. Her name, her appearance, and she even masked some of her spark for life. These were all necessary things. She was living an absolute nightmare in an abusive relationship. She was so brave and more fearless than she gave herself credit for. I like a character that is vulnerable, but also displays the desire and ability to fight. Tessa was all that, and simply amazing.


I love me some sexy rockstar heroes! Liam is all swagger and rock god. But those things don’t define who he is deep down. He’s humble, kind, and totally drool worthy! I like Catherine’s heroes in this series. They’re definitely strong and have some serious alpha vibes. They’re ridiculously protective over the ones they love, but they’re also sweet and love deeply. It’s a great combination!


Tessa is skittish, for obvious reasons, and I swooned over how Liam gained her trust. It was a SLOW process, but through it all, I could feel the flames of their chemistry growing and growing. I appreciated the friendship they developed first. Tessa needed a friend like him. Trusting Liam is part of her healing process and finding herself again.


This book was a good balance of suspense and romance. The romance part was first and foremost, which is something I really like. 


I really care about the characters in this series. Catherine Cowles has the talent to draw you into her fictional world and make you fall in love with the people in Sutter Lake. I desperately NEED book 3! I’m pretty sure that Tucker’s book will make me fall hard!
