Protecting What's Theirs by Tessa BaileyErotic Romance, Novella to follow Protecting What's His.“I’ll never be cured of my jealousy. Not now. Not in fifty years.” He gripped Ginger’s hips, worried her ear with his teeth. “And don’t pretend for a second that you don’t love it.”Protecting What's Theirs is a quick 48 page read that is more of an extended epilogue to Protecting What's His, checking in with the couple a year later. Derek and Ginger are happy, and things have been going well for them. Alpha, dirty-talking, possessive Derek makes it clear how much he still wants Ginger.Ginger receives the shock of her life, and just when she needs Derek to be there for her, he starts pulling back. Working all hours and not opening up to Ginger, he presses all of her insecurity buttons. His reason, that he doesn't want her to worry about a big raid he has going may have been an understandable reason, but it pissed me off!As a dominant guy, Derek has demanded honesty from Ginger, and he didn't trust her, or think she was strong enough to share his burden.Though it upset me , I actually thought this was a good twist. It's good to see a couple still learning and working out their differences. Because there is no doubt how much these two love each other."Sometimes I look at you... and I can't breathe around these feelings."Likes:•More Derek and Ginger.•Mmmmm....hot dirty talk.•Seeing how our couple is doing a year later.•It's clear how much they still love each other.•Seeing Derek and Ginger get through a pretty major conflict, but getting through it and coming out the other side, stronger for it.Dislikes:•Grrr, I got mad at Derek (though I wouldn't change it).•I was wondering where Ginger's sister was the whole time.Rating: 4.75 stars, 4.75 HeatAt 48 pages, this is a little too hard to even rate as a novella, so I am giving it the same rating as the first book, because I read them as one long book anyway. I'll be reading the rest of this series from Tessa Bailey through the summer. I can't wait for more alpha-male deliciousness.See more at http://anasattic.com/
