Reckless Abandon by Andrea Randall ~ Blog Tour and Giveaway







Blurb


November Harris is lost. After a failed romance with musician Bo Cavanaugh, Ember is left struggling to regain her true self. The problem is, Bo won’t go away and Ember's stance is firm—she doesn't want him back.

Adrian Turner, Ember's ex-boyfriend-turned confidant, is patient with her heartbreak, but he can't hold back his own feelings forever.


As she sorts through her past, in an effort to plan a solid future, Ember will find that sometimes even the best laid plans bow to the soul's desire for reckless abandon.



Excerpt 

When the doors ding closed behind us, I slam Adrian into the side of the elevator by my mouth. “Never do that to me in public again,” I curse in the short time my tongue leaves his mouth.


I feel his grin against my lips. “Don’t worry, baby. Anything else I plan on doing to you has to be done in private.”


We tear blindly through his door in a hurricane of need five years in the making. I glide backward with each step he takes forward, until my hips are backed up against the kitchen island. With the height of my heels, I’m able to lift up on my toes slightly and shift myself onto the marbled surface. Once anchored, I kick off my heels and wrap my legs around his waist.



“You have condoms right?” I breathe onto his collarbone as I explore the peaks and valleys of his muscles with my lips.

Review

4 Stars....

First, I am going to say a tiny bit about Ten Days of Perfect the first book in this series. Ten Days of Perfect kinda felt rushed in every sense which concerned me when I began Reckless Abandon. To my surprise, Reckless Abandon proved to be so much more than I thought it would be. Reckless Abandon was very well written with so much heart break, angst, and emotion. Lots of ANGST!!!! Another great point of this book was the story behind DROP Foundation that Bo's family founded. It is nice to read books that actually have meaning to the story true to life while there is still hot and heavy romance in the mix. The author did a great job developing an awesome story but I am still befuddled with November. I don't know.....maybe its because I had a hard time connecting with her and her wishy washy attitude which led me to my 4 Stars. The beginning of this series (Ten Days of Perfect) started out with such potential but I just felt like Reckless Abandon could have spent more time developing Bo and November's relationship and I felt this didn't happen until the very end of the book leaving room for the possibility of another book that continues their story. I don't know........


Overall Reckless Abandon was a well written story through November's journey to find true love . I would definitely recommend that you read this series. Enjoy!

For the first 12 months, 5% of all sales from Reckless Abandon will go to the New England Center for Homeless Veterans.

Author Bio

I started writing poetry long before writing fiction. I firmly believe Poetry is a solid foundation for all other forms of writing. It taught me that a single word can make or break the world.

I write fiction because my characters have a story and they want me to tell it.

I hope you enjoy the pieces of my soul that I share with you.
