Darra's Review:


When I read the first book of the series, Only for You, I truly felt that Sam needed her own book. Genna does a great job with making the reader understand every emotion each character is feeling. What Sam has to overcome is unbelievable and with her recovery and all the craziness that happens after what Heath did to her, it keeps you glued to the book.
You get more of Griffin as well. I will say I did love Hunter. However I knew the little that I did read of Griffin in the first book, I would love him too. And has exceeded my imagination. Let me tell you, perfection is the best way to explain who he is. Leaves these real world guys we know up in smoke! Together they have a strong connection and despite all of what happens, Griffin never stops loving Sam. Talk about a rollercoaster of crazies after her. Sam gets trapped into! Nothing got in their way.

I would rate this book a 4.2. Great follow-up book. Sometimes I have problems with reading a second book that has one of a side character from first book of the series, but I had no problem with this. The characters were just as strong and amazing as what we got before.

Only For You by Genna Rulon!!!!

Synopsis:


“In its purest form love is self-sacrificing, eternal, selfless, enduring, truthful, forgiving and indulgent. It also feels an awful lot like a kick to the stomach when you try to fight it!

All Everleigh Carsen wanted to do was complete her final semester at Hensley University and begin the life she carefully planned.

When a wave of violent crime seizes campus, Everleigh is persuaded to attend a school sponsored self-defense seminar by her best friend, where she meets volunteer instructor, Hunter Charles. After Everleigh’s biting sarcasm induces Hunter to eject her from class, a tempestuous relationship is born.

Everleigh is determined to forget the striking man, but fate–that fickle shrew–continuously intervenes. Unable to escape him, she declares Hunter an enemy combatant. The only complication… Hunter is resolutely pursuing vindication…by any means necessary. Verbal warfare ensues, and despite Everleigh’s ingenious efforts, in Hunter, she has finally found her equal.

Only For You is a compelling tale of friendship, desire, and redemption--brimming with intelligent characters, witty dialogue, unexpected twists, profound sorrow, unfettered hope, and love’s unassailable perseverance.

Note:  Although this is series, each novel can be read as a stand alone.

Darra's Review:


I think this book reminds me of several of my other favorite books. Which of course is a good thing. Everleigh takes no crap and is sarcastic, a great combination. I did have a good laugh when she got kicked out of the class. And then she has him in one of her classes. The back and forth between the two are great. Smart and witty come backs. And when Hunter puts that music bug(you will understand when you read) in her ear, I laughed. And that night at the bar, the dancing.......wow.
There are several characters you get a taste of. But I want to hear more about Sam and her ex and many others. I assume that is why there are other books. There are many stories that revolve around the story of Hunter and Everleigh. Hunter is such a honorable guy, you can't help from wanting a Hunter for yourself.
Another book I needed to have my happily ever after. This book has so much that happens, it was easy to read the book in a day.
I would rate this book a 4.3. Give it a read!

BUY THE BOOK!!!!
