BOOK REVIEW: Last Words by Colleen Green
Not gonna lie, this book confused the heck out of me. It started interesting, but then took me a few chapters to realize that the author had shifted into the past as the main character reminisced. There wasn’t the usual indication of a time change, just a simple sentence. Eventually the author circled back to where the book started, but it was a really long way to get there.
I honestly did like parts of it. There were events that were interesting, and the restaurant scenes were reminiscent of the cooking shows my family likes to watch. But there was an awful lot that seemed haphazard. The growth of the romance between Amber and Jack seemed forced – it didn’t seem to grow organically at all. I kept feeling like I was supposed to expect something else from Jack because of his actions, so I was really off balance on him. I also thought that the subplot involving the restaurant and Jack’s father was a stab at suspense that wasn’t entirely successful.
This is the first in a series, so I am hopeful that the series improves, and Amber was a heroine that I could root for. I just hope that things get a little more realistic and fleshed out in the long run. My Goodreads review is below.
Last Words: Book One in The Amber Milestone Series by Colleen Green
My rating: 2 of 5 stars (It was okay)
I had a difficult time with this book. My family watches a lot of cooking shows, so I liked that the heroine was a chef. I thought that some of the plot points were good and made sense. However, there were a lot of inconsistencies with characters, and other plot points didn’t seem to be fully realized. I thought the subplot with Amber’s niece was unnecessary, and the sister and brother-in-law were distractions. Their attitudes did not make a lot of sense in the bigger picture. Sadly, I also didn’t fully understand the romance angle with Jack. There were too many red herrings to make me believe that they had an undying love. An event near the end was downright outlandish, as were the machinations of another character. This is the first in a series, so I will be interested in seeing where the story goes from here. It was an okay book, but I hope for better from the rest in the series. This review was written based on a complimentary pre-release copy.

BOOK REVIEW: Three of Hearts by Angela Nicole
If you’re looking for a down and dirty menage romance, this isn’t the one for you. But if you’re looking for one that explores the concept and features characters who have the same doubts about the lifestyle that you might have, I would definitely recommend checking this one out.
The characters are likable, almost sweet at times, which makes for an interesting juxtaposition when it comes to the sexy times. Regardless, at the heart is a decent romance. Check out my Goodreads review below.
Three of Hearts by Angela Nicole
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Sometimes a book in a genre bends the rules a little and doesn’t fit the usual mold. This is one of those times. “Three of Hearts” is a menage romance, but not in the traditional sense. This one actually had some plot to it and existed as more than just an opportunity to get to the steamy sex scenes. Kate has been best friends with the Bailey brothers, Marcus and Matthew, forever. But she has also loved them, and they love her. It makes for an interesting “when will they” aspect that moved the plot along. That being said, it felt like there was a little bit too much back and forth to get to their actual realizations, and the subplot involving the ex-husband and son seemed as if it was only used to get the son out of the way so mom could play without guilt. That being said, there were some genuinely amusing moments, and I enjoyed the unusual romance. This review was written based on a complimentary pre-release copy.
