Received an ARC for a honest reviewFirst off, most of you know that I have been a long time fan of Ms. Blakely’s. I knew what the book was about, fell in love with the cover (one of my favorites this year) but I didn’t exactly know what I was about to get into.All of a sudden I was falling head first in love with these characters so quickly I took a second to catch my breath! I also love the little Jill shout out!These days there are, albeit very good, copious amounts of books about hot male drool-enticing rocker bad boys. I love my rock stars, do not get me wrong. However, it was supremely awesome to read a story about a kick ass rock star chick, single mom and real woman. Meet Jane Black."I want someone to want me. I want to be desired, I want to be admired, I want to be adored." ~ JaneJane did not have an easy year. Learning that her husband is gay rocks her world. She keeps it together putting her pain into her music. She is thrust into the spotlight and her already shaken foundation is put to the test when now that she is UP, people want to knock her DOWN.So no wonder Jane has trust issues."I adore you, Jane," ....... "And I am absolutely and completely falling in love with you." ~ MatthewMatthew is sexy, hot, sweet and BRITISH!! Love accents. He never gives up and that is one of my favorite traits in my Book Boyfriend. I wish I knew a little more about Matthew. I adored him but feel like I could have been a little more connected to him. They have their ups and downs but nothing so over the top I want to attack my Kindle.Ms. Blakely puts life and love into her characters. They feel like your coworker, your girlfriend, your sister. This is one of my favorite aspects of her writing.Jane's journey shows us that life does not go as planned, there are turns and twists that at the time feel unmanageable. In the end, it was all worth it."I'm the person I want to be. I don't need a man to be happy, and I don't need a man to be unhappy. I just need me, and I like who I am...." ~ JaneRead the full review post at http://redsbookblog.blogspot.ca/2013/10/reds-review-far-too-tempting-by-lauren.html
