Of Boys and Men

“He was a wolf deciding which delicate piece of flesh to devour first, and I knew without a doubt that there was absolutely no turning back now, for either of us.”

Oh, this is going to be another amazing series by this author, I can tell!! I’m already in love with Ford even though I’m old enough to be his Mama. #CougarsRule. I loved, loved loved, this story.

So, let’s talk about our main characters, Jolee Ward and Ford O’Brien. Their first meeting does not go well at all. A combination of rogue luggage, rude glares, and dagger-like barbs set the stage for a semester of annoying the holy heck out of each other. But, of course, just like we did on the playground when we were kids, you pretend to hate the one you really have a crush on, right?

The push and pull between these two is just great! I’ve read stories where the back and forth just goes on way too long and by the time the characters finally get their act together, I’ve lost interest. Not in this case! It was perfect! The slings and arrows masking their undeniable attraction to one another, only fan the flames and KA-BOOM do they explode!! So HOT!!

Add to this story line, someone from Ford’s life that has the power to ruin him, and a plan to turn the tables, and it adds a touch of thriller to this one too!

I cannot wait for the rest of this series and each of the brothers’ stories!

What an amazing start to the new series by Renee Harless!! She has given us a tale of suspense, mystery, romance and of course, the importance of family, which is an integral part of all of her books. The setting for her latest book is a college near Boston, and her description of the campus was so accurate and vivid that I thought I was there on the quad, enjoying the warm Fall day. Jolee escaped her life in Alaska to be near her cousin and start over with determination and excitement for this next chapter in her life. Jolee is feisty, intelligent, goal oriented and goes after what she wants. She may not be like the other girls on campus, but she was her own person and refused to let anyone get her down. Men and romance were the farthest thing from her mind, until she bumped into the sexy and brooding Ford. She may have been blinded by his good looks, but his attitude turned her off and she wanted nothing to do with him. Or so she thought. Ford and his brothers were a tight knit group who were all the rage on campus. Girls followed them everywhere and were mesmerized by their sexy swagger and the air of mystery that surrounded them. Ford loved his family and they were everything to him, but he had secrets that he was unwilling to share with anyone. Until he met Jolee. She was beautiful, funny and he couldnt stop thinking about her because she was too special to ignore. With all that was going on in his life, did he really have time to pursue her and make her his? ”

What an amazing start to a great new series! Renee Harless has outdone herself with this book. You can practically soak up the chemistry and sexual tension through your fingers with each page. I absolutely fell in love with Ford and Jolee, I couldn’t get enough of them. You just cant help feel all these characters’ emotions and mess with your heartstrings.

I found my new addiction with Of Boys and Men and the Ridge Rogues, I’m already feigning the next book! Amazingly written in dual POV, Of Boys and Men is the first book of the Ridge Rogues series with it’s own HEA. A must read you dont want to miss out! I need all these hotties stories like now.

I bought this book because I won an advanced reader copy of book 2, and wanted to familiarize myself in the world of Ridge Rogues. I could barely put this book down. I’m a HUGE fan of Enemies to Lovers and this book is a great example of that. It has one of my favorite things that happens in books, it takes that tough guy, the one who refuses to love and it breaks him and reminds him not only is he worthy to BE loved but he can Love as well. Great writing, I loved the setting and all the brothers. I can’t wait to dive into book 2!
