Carter redwood age

Emma decided to skip the gym and went home early It was the last easy decision she made because she found her roommate being raped by her boyfriend She had two choices Call the cops and be killed by his family s mafia connections or kill him first and hope to survive There was no choice to her She killed the bastard first and went to the one person who could protect her Carter Reed He s a weapon for the rivaling mafia family but he s also Emma s secret Not only was he best friends with her brother but she s the reason he became that weapon in the first place Carter Reed Carter Reed 1 What do you do when your roommate and best friend is raped by her boyfriend who just happens to be the son of the local mafia boss Well for Emma the answer is easy She comes back from her gym class early goes directly for her gun and shoots him So far so good or rather not so far and not so good lol sigh What can I say about this book shakes head The first half read like an action movie and felt like Fifty Shades of Grey meets the mafia which actually was pretty entertaining and kept the book in my good graces but right after we hit the halfway mark the book became soo damn boring I couldn t even bring myself to pick it up XDAnd that says a lot When I need an entire month for about 125 pages this means that my interest hasn t just deserted me but also ran an extra mile to hide in the endless hills of the faerie realm In other words I was bored out of my mind and read everything else than Carter Reed lol After giving this some serious thought I finally realised what didn t work for me though I mean it should have worked but it didn t so I really wanted to find out why I stopped enjoying this book The answer is quite simple It has an alpha male and a damsel in distress and it was supposed to be a sexy read In the first half Carter Reed delivered exactly that but in the second half to read on became quite strenuous So what happened The guy got the girl Yep that s it Let me elaborate I have no problem with alpha males or the kind of woman that s a damsel in distress but I have a major problem with the build up of sexual tension and an anticlimactic release Oops what a choice of words facepalm Anyway Half of the book Emma was like Ohhh boy Carter is so hot and then they finally hit it off and everything goes to hell Like excuse me but WTH All they did was to kiss each other which led to them ending up in bed We go to the club we party we cry about our miserable life and lost friends and then we start all over again IF THEY AT LEAST WOULD HAVE HAD THE DECENCY TO HAVE SOME FABULOUS SEX lol But no We don t even get that we get tension tension a kiss a little bit of touching and groping and then it s fade out And this happens the rest of the entire book Better one sex scene that is good than 20 that are bad Where s the point in writing such scenes when they bore you to death stifles a yawn And where did the plot go Out of the window as it seems What happened to the almighty mafia boss who was supposed to want revenge If I d be a mafia boss and someone would have killed my only heir I d be majorly pissed I d like to see blood and I would find a way to get to them But nope Emma is untouchable because she s Carter Reeds Sure Completely logical Oh and don t even get me started on self blaming forever crying Emma I just can t So yeah I finally finished this book and I was actually relieved when I closed the last page The only reason Carter Reed gets 3 stars from me is the simple fact that the book was really nice at the beginning Unfortunately it didn t stay that way _ I m sorry to say it but in the end this really didn t work out for me Not at all But hey maybe this is still the perfect read for you Who knows As for me I m done with oh so shmexy Carter Reed P Carter Reed Carter Reed 1 Okay let me start by saying that I ve had the pleasure of reading great books by Tijan before Carter Reed however didn t live up to my expectations.

Character recommendation letter As if you can t tell I loved this and highly recommend it Carter Reed Carter Reed 1 Andreea is not impressed Andreea is fucking angry disappointed and downright frustrated What s up with that rating average And how is it possible that this book has so many 5 star reviews that fangirl over the awesomeness that is Carter Reed I wanted to be one of those fangirls that couldn t stop gushing about it but I ended up wondering IF I EVEN READ THE SAME BOOK Prepare for a lot of shouty capitals ranting and exasperating quotes Bare with me here because I might need therapy Let me give you the main reason why I absolutely hated Carter Reed The main character Emma Martins She was an absolute pain in the ass My jaw just dropped at just how stupid and dumb she could be I was at the point where I was praying she was faking it because I couldn t comprehend someone being so naive and weak Mike nodded for me to go in so I did Oh you petulant little thing DO YOU EVEN HAVE A BRAIN Who are you texting My head jerked up and I almost dropped my phone as Theresa frowned at me Her eyes fell to my phone and warmth surged to my cheeks as I fumbled to keep my screen hidden I knew I was redder than red Way to keep it cool She s so immature that I wanted to smack her upside down not to mention strangle her when she actually thought she has a say in all that was happening She really believed she has the right to fucking complain NEWS FLASH HONEY the Mob is trying to kill you and you wanted protection now sit on your goddamn butt and don t put yourself in danger just because you feel like it or because you re feeling lonely or because you need to help or because you re so childishly stubborn ARGHHH He spoke to me like I was two You are I flushed I was an idiot sometimes No you re always an idiot I m sorry I wasn t thinking Damn right you weren t You have no idea what thinking feels like I don t want to stay away I mumbled I felt ridiculous You are that as well I wasn t helpless and he needed to start telling me what was going on This was my life too Tell that to the priest Warmth burst inside of me but I tried to tone it down I was becoming one of those gushy types I hated those types but I whispered back I m glad you re coming back Hy po crite I didn t know what was going on but I knew he was going to leave me there Something came up and he needed to handle whatever it was but I didn t want to be left behind STOP WHINING I might add that she s also shallow and self centered My eyes went wide She downgraded I could never afford a place like this not with the salary I earned as Mr Hudson s assistant Then I comprehended the rest of what she had said Oh I m so sorry about your parents Nice save dumbass Emma resembled a two year old At least mentally speaking because physically she had the body of a horny teenager bimbo in the making She s trapped in her own little world and she barely talks Everyone throws questions at her and they re left unanswered because it seems she doesn t have the normal capability of having a conversation. Carter reeves residential limited He reached for my hand again and raised it for a soft kiss Emma tell me The knots in my stomach loosened at his touch but I shook my head This was embarrassing in a small way It s really nothing Proof 2 He asked What happened I sighed He always knew Nothing Emma Nothing my voice rose. Carter reed and dove He took my arm and pulled me close What happened Nothing Proof 3 Emma I became aware of his voice The phone had fallen into the covers and I grabbed it Sorry Are you okay I m fine Emma I am I rushed out When are you coming back I ll be back tomorrow night Good I took a deep breath That s good Are you sure you re okay I m good But now that I think about it she s not just self centered She s Carter centered Everything comes back to him and it s quite pathetic how easily she falls for him If she s not over analyzing her decisions which she should because they truly suck then she s fantasizing about Carter I needed Carter That made sense to me so that s what I held onto Amazing logic by the way This creature who held my hand was mine as I was his I belonged to him and I gasped in silence as I felt his claim sink into my blood It went deep to the bones Everything in me belonged to him and as I followed him through his club I knew that I was becoming addicted to him Fan tastic I m telling you She barely knows the guy That was normal to indulge after a hard week at work and laugh with your friends over a glass of wine This was all normal I could be normal. Carter reed 2 pdf Carter wasn t normal but I couldn t only have him in my life now Why does it all have to come back to him Whyyyyy I had three friends who I considered family but now it was Carter It was quickly becoming all about him Duh Obviously Twenty four hours earlier and I would ve been pleading for her life She was innocent She was pure She meant no harm But now I had changed Theresa had become a friend but everything shifted last night Carter was my lover He was my family He was my only ally And because of that because she held a threat to his life I told him I can t lose you Kill me now Pleeeease end my mysery Carter the character could ve been the best thing in this book But instead of being a great character he was double faced and manipulative I suppose he had his good times and I admired him for his power confidence and cunning mind but that didn t balance the fact that he turned into a sappy love struck guy by the end of the book How he could ve fallen in love with the idiot extraordinaire is beyond me And are you actually trying to tell me he was whipped about Emma all this time and he didn t make a damn move ARE YOU SHITTING ME He tilted my head back and pressed a kiss underneath my chin as he murmured I have always loved you Another kiss I will always love you Emma There s been no other for me His hand slid to the back of my neck and his lips moved back to mine Now do you love me I grinned against him unable to hold it in You know I do I just threw up in my mouth a bit. Carter reed tijan epub Another thing that dumbfounded me was how Emma kept whining about Carter s new demeanor towards her and how he s not the same Carter any Well no shit Sherlock He joined the FREAKING MOB What the heck would you expect Rainbows and sunshine coming out of his ass Ugh The secondary characters were flat undeveloped and plain stupid damn it s like they take life advice from each other I couldn t connect with any of them Ben infuriatingly dumb and a complete wacko Theresa too quirky and judgemental Noah he sounded like an insecure thirteen year old most of the time Amanda a ridiculous excuse for a friend but I grew to tolerate her Mallory amazingly naive if she thought having a boyfriend as dangerous as hers would leave her unscathed You re not here trying to get her money are you Great ice breaker. What watch did jimmy carter wear This is my first book by Tijan and I seriously hope it s her worst one because otherwise if it s one of her great stuff I m bound to swear off any other stories she s created The writing style is simply put bad There are so many repetitive sequences and cringe worthy lines I don t know maybe being inside Emma s brain small as a pea triggered my need to turn back to basic second grade understanding skills but I doubt that this whole issue couldn t have been avoided my some spot on editing I bet the book would ve been half its current size and maybe I would ve granted another star to my rating Maybe He didn t like it It happened too fast for his liking I just admitted to myself that there was something between us I sucked in my breath and my hands started to tremble My stomach churned and formed knots but I had to admit that something was growing between Carter and me Seriously it s like I m double reading everything I wanted this story to be thrilling and romantic but it was neither The premise had so much potential for an action driven plot when in reality the story unfolded at a slow pace with a few bang bang scenes thrown at random to ensure that we haven t forgotten this book is about the Mob I WAS BORED Actually let me say it again I was stuck inside Emma s insipid thoughts and the sexy times between her and Carter although they got me a bit hot and bothered were vomit inducing after a while because of how unrealistic the chemistry was There were a few that I didn t know about until later but I still killed them I killed all of them For you How romantic. Book Carter reedus I hoped I d be able to love this book so much but instead I hated it I m not one to bash someone s work and I m usually really indulgent when it comes to books I overlook a lot for the sake of enjoying a story but when it s this horrendous I have to acknowledge that this book wasn t for me In the beginning I entertained the idea that I ll give it a 4 stars rating Then it dropped to 3 Then to 2 And now to 1 sigh It s my first one star rating and I m sad to give it to Carter Reed but it still doesn t change the fact that I want to throw it out the window even after I finished it Carter Reed turns out to be my biggest literary disappointment EVER I was sure I was going to love it because it had all the right ingredients but then I actually read it and I m now left here with a severe headache I think even my brain is hurting countless highlighted quotes to account for my dislike and a general impression of WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK If the book got a bunch of serious editing and Emma a personality change this book would ve been ten times better If I d say ENJOY but I don t really recommend it soP, Carter reedtms We re first introduced to Emma Who happens to arrive home early one day to find her room mate being raped by her own boyfriend: Carter moss reed Emma only has seconds to make a decision 1 Call the cops and be killed by his family s mafia connections or 2 Kill him and hope for the best, PDF Carter reed She of course picks 2 I probably would too After all is said and done she runs to the only person she knows and hopes will protect her Carter Reed, Character recommendation letter Now Carter is balls deep in the mob He s a weapon A very powerful one He s also Emma s little secret: Carter reid legal Now the first half wasn t that bad Overlooking little things that annoyed me I enjoyed it However after the story started progressing I could no longer let those things slide: Carter reed kindle price Emma was the most self centred bitch I ve ever had the displeasure of reading: Book Carter reeds jewelers All she thought about was herself I hate a pity party and she was the star at that show.
