Right Right His answer is a throaty growl When Say When is a very deep romance novel that tells a story about two broken people trying to love and forget their demons Christina is engaged with a man who her mother wants to marry He has the power and the money and all she needs to do now is set the date for the wedding But she cannot stand him and the thought of making love to him makes her sick She finally is able to break it off with him and calls her friend to leave him with his nasty fart breaths Accidently running into a hot Latino makes her blood boil and maybe this new Christina can do something she never done before a one night stand But this one night stand end up something and she might fall for someone she does not deserve After Andres came back from Afghanistan.

Book say yes

Ms West s novel Say When gives you exactly what the warning warned you about sure there is some hot language and sizzling sex scenes but there is so The author has created two main characters that are physically beautiful ooze sex appeal yet both have very real vulnerablilities as well No cookie cutter writing here The story is well written fast and holds yor interest until the very last line Then you want Christina and Andres are characters you want to stay with especially Christina as I m a male lol and the plot is creative and fun to follow leaving you guessing as to what will happen next Lastly not only is the story poignant but there are some really funny lines sprinkled between the steamy pages of sex Makes for a very entertaining combination Highly recommended for readers of the new adult genre as well as readers who are just looking for a well written love story Five stars plus Tara West Originally posted at Nocturnal Predators ReviewsI am a total sucker for books with abused turned strong heroines With that being said I can t really say I enjoyed this book very much It wasn t so bad that I was being dragged through the novel but it was so good that I was speed reading to get to the end It was just average This book didn t focus on the emotional part of the abuse When the story is introduced Cristina has already gone through the transformation from abused victim to strong I will kick you in the balls if you mess with me attitude It would have been better had the story began a little earlier in Cristina s life. Book say yes Everything Andr s was Jackson wasn t On the contrary to Jackson Andr s was charming caring and deserving of affection He was also mexican which was a huge problem with Cristina s mother and had a great personality Andr s was just amazing to read about. What to say to a young adult with cancer Cristina s mother AKA The Spitting Cobra Thanks to Karri for that nickname was a selfish racist prejudiced cold hearted woman She stood there while Cristina was being abused and did nothing She even had the audacity to say that she was the one with the pain and guilt She even insists on Cristina marrying a rich annoying and snobbish guy. Say when meme The only problem I had with this novel was the way Cristina kept insisting on comparing Andr s with Jackson Hun there s just no way to compare a good kind hearted man to a rich snob who as his daddy to bank him for the rest of his life So move on already. Paranormal and fantasy say when you are pregnant Keep your eyes on the prize Tara West I needed this book I had just come off reading a book that didn t really excite me at all You know how that can bum you out From page one I was pulled into Christina s world the confrontation with her fianc and his breath that smells like farts wanting to finally be the strong you not the weak please everyone you the best friend with a problem actually for a couple of years I was probably that friend I completely got her. Say when rooftop My Andr s AAR N D AZ photo credit Then in walks Andr s Tall dark and handsome with some of his own baggage I could totally take Christina s place because I d understand what he was saying as he whispered sweet nothings in Spanish in my ear but alas I am not Christina. Book say the right thing I just really loved this book Romance drama excellent writing characters you care about what could you want in a book Oh You wanted some hot love scenes They re in there too. Say when rooftop I cannot wait for the sequel Say Yes The teaser in the back of Say When has me chomping at the bit to get my hands on it Speaking of that there isn t a cliffhanger of an ending here for those who hate that Yes there is a sequel and yes I want definitely want but Tara doesn t leave you hanging at the end of Say When You will know how this particular story ends. Book say nothing by patrick radden keefe Add some steamy moments and it made this an awesome read No spoilers no repeating the blurb The author uses some amazing hilarious phases that I ll be using in the future Definitely recommend this book to all romance fans Tara West There are no words to express how amazing this book is However I will try Intense romance trials conflict shattered past and loyalty all in one book This story is by far Tara s best book Following Christina and Andr s through their trials and romance had me reading this book in one sitting I could not put it down There are no other words good enough to describe this book I would truly give it than 5 stars if I could Tara West COMPLETE SERIES ALERT ALL SEVEN BOOKS IN THIS FAST BURN ROMANCE SERIES ARE OUTFrom USA Today Bestselling Author Tara West WINNER OF THE 2014 EFESTIVAL OF WORDS BEST AUDIO BOOKHe told me to say when but I can t Not with Andr s It s so hard to say anything when he s trailing feather soft kisses down my neck or when his touch sends hot currents of lust rippling across my skin Then there s the way he smiles and offers soft words of encouragement when I m creating art almost like he believes I have talent. Book say her name He s not like any guy I ve ever met Not like my ex fianc Not like my father He s got me thinking that maybe we can have something More than just lust degradation and abuse And now I m scared because that means I ll have to trust him with than just my body but with my heart too Say When Something More 1 ARC provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review I don t hear the music I don t see the people I know must be staring at us All I hear all I feel is him That s when I lean up and whisper into his ear You told me to say when his nightmares are not ending Meeting Christina and spending the night with her stopped the nightmares for one night and he needs to find out if there is something than just one night But even if she is different he can t stop wondering if he is not good for her The first 30% of the book were FREAKING AMAZING There was so much humor and I loved Christina I just thought it was so hilarious how she left her fianc and how her night turned out But as the book went on I didn t have that connection that I originally had I would want to see of Andres POV because his was way interesting than Christina s was Otherwise I really liked the writing but the second part of the book felt abandoned Even though there were a lot of emotions involved between the characters the way it was written was very disconnected and dead Tara West Let me start this review by putting aside any and all notations of this being a typical New Adult novel with all the bells and whistles of problematic cliches that plague this genre to the point where it gets extremely annoying and unrealistic I think that s important because there are problems with this narrative that somewhat supersede the former and made it of a chore to read in other measures for me Say When by Tara West lacks the art of subtlety or creating tension to build anticipation The author lays all of the cards out on the table and spells everything to the reader to the point where it s difficult to feel for the character s situations and backgrounds Even if we re talking about two very flawed protagonists 21 year old Christina is probably the biggest brattiest adult you could probably be inside the head of I m not kidding she s so flawed that even when i read through the first few chapters it was difficult to feel any sympathy for her She breaks up with her fiance because he s not good in bed and she seems physically repulsed by him But considering her put downs it was difficult to figure why she was engaged to him in the first place And then Christina continually seems to downplay her relationship with her best friend Karri I say it in quotes because Christina slut shames puts her down and otherwise insults her for a good while in the narrative It s hard to glean why they re best friends in any measure of the word Karri s not a likable character and make no mistake I hated her with a passion considering she neglects her young child But there was really very little to no attempts from the main character to try to better the situation she just complained constantly When Karri s car breaks down the two meet a mechanic named Andres who is described as your stereotypical hot Spanish lover He s later noted as Mexican but goodness this is such a horrible presentation of a Mexican heritage character Don t get me wrong I actually think Andres had potential He s not the typical undeveloped angry New Adult alpha male who possesses the female character he s actually a pretty decent guy with his own scars as a war veteran turned mechanic who wanted to help out the heroine I actually looked forward to getting in his head a bit because he was tolerable and less selfish than Christina But I hated the fact that his character was pretty much used as a parrot to spell out important plot points and he wasn t really developed beyond calling attention to his and the heroine s problems It didn t make him feel human much less than a cookie cutter character used to infodump That wasn t cool and I think the collective narrative suffered for it on his and Christina s behalf But even then Andres s perspective is not frequented as often as Christina Many times Christina juxtaposes herself as being new versus her old self and talking about her transformation to where she calls out the problematic things in her life and ditching her old relationships and deserving better when really she doesn t do anything about the complaints she makes in her life She just puts up with it and doesn t grow or change or feel like she s doing anything but spouting out the mouth and hating on everything around her This is no fun nor is it fulfilling to read about and I couldn t help but be irritated by it through the entire narrative even when her relationship with Andres grows It s justnot good I tried with it but ultimately this book did not rise above its cliches or do anything to make me want to sympathize empathize with the characters And when you have a narrative like that it won t recover The style and development of the narrative could ve used so much work to at least make the presentation of these problematic characters a little tolerable Overall score 0. Say when doc holiday shirt 5 5 stars Note I received this as an ARC from NetGalley from the publisher Tara West Another summer read for those who enjoy simple romance stories filled with steaminess Say When is short nice and sweet story about instant attraction and blossoming relationship Tara West done a good job in creating pleasant read for those who don t need a lot of drama or have big expectations. Say when png Say When is a great and pleasurable way to spend boring evening unfortunately NA addicts who know the drill in this genre can be a little bit disappointed by simple plot or quick progress Christina is Jack fianc e His rich spoiled and dumb But being a daughter of woman who wants Jack s money Christina feel forced into relationship that has no future The day of her twenty first birthday is a disaster She breaks up with Jack and has a fight with her best friend who s a druggie and slut So when she meets Andres she only wants to forget about everything and have wonderful night filled with orgasms and passion Something her relationship with Jack lacked of. Say when tattoo Together they want to alternated their life and for the first time just fight for happiness Overall nice but ordinary story that has plot holes and is a little bit predictable For my taste Say When is a little bit sugared up and has boring moments I could use some humor or amusing characters Let s hope the story will nicely progress in the future. Say when rooftop Say When is a book for fans of pleasant summer romances especially if a reader is fantasying about hot Latin men with nice six pack and chocolate eyes Tara West Say When is a quick and easy read but filled with so much intensity at the same time Christina is shy and timid and she allows the people in her life to dictate what she does Her mother tells her who to date her fianc e puts her down and degrades her Something inside her snaps and she says Enough When she meets Andres she is immediately attracted to him and sees a nice guy in there However all the men in her past have left her guarded and unable to fully trust She sees that Andres is different but can she give him her heart and trust that he won t break it I liked Christina well enough She definitely grew throughout the book and I love character development so that was a plus She started out as a timid girl who let everyone walk all over her and she became a strong independent woman who made her own decisions regardless of what others wanted She was also a good friend to Karri even though Karri never showed her the same respect I felt like she maybe fell a little too fast for Andres especially after how guarded she claimed to be from her father s abuse and Jackson s treatment of her This is a new me I want to say to him I m not putting up with anyone s shit any longer I hold back from unleashing that part of my verbal assault I wonder if I ve got the guts to hold him and my mom off forever Andres was a sexy latin mechanic who just came home from Afghanistan He is struggling with nightmares and internal demons from his time in the war and when he meets Christina there is something about her that draws him in He feels this need to know her and after spending a night with her and having no nightmares he knows there is something special However he can see she is guarded and he is afraid of giving his heart to her and having it broken He is so sweet and caring and I loved his dedication to his friends and family He took care of Christina and treated her the way she deserved to be treated I never thought a man could be so beautiful but he s like a Spanish Adonis Karri and Christina s mom were both terrible characters Her mom was absolutely crazy and so caught up on money and appearances that she didn t care whether or not her daughter was happy She knew about the abuse Christina suffered but only cared about what people would think She is a selfish old hag and I was proud of Christina for finally standing up to her Karri is a whole other disaster She has been best friends with Christina since the second grade but has made a complete mess of her life Drugs random sex and an illegitimate child she has really messed up her life but Christina is always there for her However Karri was a snotty bitch who took advantage of Christina and I was glad when she finally stood up and told her how it was. EBook Say when people I enjoyed the plot and felt the intensity of what Christina was going through She was young but had already experienced so much turmoil in her life with her parents and her friendships Meeting Andres was a breath of fresh air and their intimacy was definitely steamy I was also surprised by the Karri s betrayal at the end and didn t see it coming However I wasn t a big fan of the way the dual POV was written Christina was in first person and Andres was in third person and that threw me off a little I also felt like the end was rushed a little It seemed like there was so much depth in the beginning and middle and then the end lost some of that depth as it was rushed to come to a close. Say when tombstone Overall Say When was an enjoyable read and I liked the writing and the character development I could see the changes that Christina went through and the way she became a stronger character I felt all of the emotions that she and Andres experienced and I look forward to see what the author does with the next book Tara West Review originally posted at Ramblings From This ChickSay When is the first book that I have read by Tara West It is her first New Adult novel and for the most part I enjoyed the book I did have a few problems with the story but this was definitely a promising foray into the NA genre I really loved the cover of this book and I think that was what really drew me in and made me want to read this story Christina is engaged to Jackson and has pretty much been a doormat when it comes to him and her mom After finally growing tired of putting up with them basically running her life she decides to finally stand up for herself After dumping Jackson she goes out with a friend and meets Andres Andres instantly attracts her and she finds herself wanting to be with him regardless of the fact that they are strangers She goes home with him and they both realize that the physical connection is beyond anything that either one of them have ever felt before As they begin to spend time together they both question whether or not the relationship has a chance to be anything than just sex Both have issues from the past that have left them a little damaged and they begin to see that they might be able to not only have a relationship together but that they can possibly heal each other along the way I liked Andres He was sexy and extremely sweet from the start I think he was the perfect person for Christina He really seemed to be exactly what she needed and instead of running her life like her mom and Jackson had done he encouraged her to do things for herself I at times really liked Christina and then at other times I didn t understand her at all For someone who has been really hurt in the past and stated that she had some trust issues the relationship with Andres progressed at an almost alarming rate She goes home with him the first night they meet right after breaking up with her fiance and she ends up getting a job working for him and his family almost immediately The relationship seemed pretty rushed to me and for someone who had been through a past like hers it just seemed completely out of character I did love Christina s dedication to Tyler her friend Karri s son She was always concerned with his well being and went out of her way to help out when it came to him I also really loved seeing her grow over the course of the book Despite the inconsistencies with Christina s personality I did enjoy this story The scenes between Andres and Christina were very hot and the sex was very well done I saw their chemistry from the very first time they met but it would have been nice if the relationship didn t feel so rushed Overall this story was a very quick read for me I finished it in one sitting as it was a pretty short read I will admit I was not a fan of how the author chose to do the switch in point of views between Andres and Christina Christina s POV was in first person while Andres POV was in third person I found that not only confusing but also it caused the book to almost seem fragmented as it just didn t flow But even with that being said the story was interesting enough that I kept reading Unfortunately the book ends extremely abruptly after a completely rushed conclusion It seemed as though everything was almost packed into the last chapter when it could have been a little developed and smooth but adding a few pages I m hoping that the next book Say Yes will give the readers and characters the closure that was missing from this story Even with the problems I had with this book I would still recommend giving this story a shot if you are a fan of romance and the New Adult genre ARC provided by Author Tara West
