[This review was posted on my blog and goodreads on Feb. 2013, and states only for book 1]Accidentally on Purposeby LD DavisDue to I'm pretty partial to this book, my review will be scattered, dotted with extremely personal thoughts."Coming from a guy who wasn't always nice to women, he's only going to treat you the way you let him. If you continue to be tolerant of circumstances, he's not going to have a reason to change."Dear Ms. Davis,I must admit that when I started reading, I thought this one would be another romance-erotic novel, but I was so wrong. It hit me in a deep level.Your characters (and their traits as well) were perfectly delimited, each one with its own persona.Your plot, a total real life drama, with all the feelings that surrounds us in a daily basis.I could totally understand Emmy, her fears, her tremors, her struggle, her needings, being broken, and not feeling complete, due to I myself lived a similar experience, not having two relationships at the same time, but being in an physical and mental abusive relationship."Love can make us do things we never meant to do."Kyle is the typical guy, who's use to get all that he wants, at the moment he needs/wants it, no matter consequences, but not because of his family, but despite of his family. He's the little wounded boy, who's always pressured to assume faults that aren't his."At first, I couldn't figure out why I was seeing stars and why my left side of my face stung and hurt so badly. Not until mi vision began to clear did I see Kyle standing over me, with his hand raised and breathing erratically, with an animalistic expression on his face. I tasted the blood and then I realized he hit me."Luke. Even though he's Mr. Prince Charm, he isn't perfect: he's someone who's hurt that deals with pain, lust, sadness, traitors, and himself. Although, he accepts Emmy in spite of herself, knowing she's broken.“I love you, Emmy, scars and all.”So, while I was reading your book I just kept thinking I was one of the lucky ones, those one who had the support and who could get off these situations, despite circumstances.“Anyone who can rationalize love through intellect, has no idea what love is, for it is an emotion, and cannot be rationalized. For love is crazy.”That's why my review is totally partial, due to you, as a writer, touched a sensible, forgiven part of me."Never accept anything (or anyone) less than you deserve."LD Davis.
