The only true feelings these two hustled out of me were annoyance and contempt. I want to punch Ava O’Shea in the chesticles just as hard. I want to punch Jesse Ward in the junk so hard his grandkids feel it. I didn’t do either because it’s a library book and Doña Mari (mommy dearest) would not appreciate the wail. I also had to fight the urge to lunge the book across the room and let out a mournful wail so loud it would impress Chewbacca. I had to stop myself every few pages, put the book down and roll my eyes so hard I’m pretty sure I might have sprained something. Not to mention it’s an abusive relationship from the get go. There is no character development, no reader/character relationship, and the relationship between the main characters was iffy at best. In the fanfic community (shut up) we have something called PWP, which stands for either Plot What Plot or Porn Without Plot. You know how sometimes something makes you so angry you just have to rant? I apologize in advance because there is so much ranting. So she would have someone to gush over the characters with. My coworker recommended this book about a month ago, she was going on and on about how I needed to read it. This week I bring you This Man by Jodi Ellen Malpas. He wants her and is determined to have her. She knows that her heart will never survive him and her instinct is telling her to run, but Jesse is not willing to let her go. Ava doesn’t want to be attracted to this man, and yet she can’t control the overwhelming desire that he stirs in her. A run-of-the-mill consultation with a stodgy country gent seems likely, but what Ava finds instead is Jesse Ward–a devastatingly handsome, utterly confident, pleasure-seeking playboy who knows no boundaries.
Young interior designer Ava O’Shea has no idea what awaits her at the Manor.
