Three Stars for On the Way Home
Hi, my name is Anna and I'm an embarrassment to the women's movement!
What can I say? I had a hard time with this book. I couldn't find the love for our hero. He was hot, buff, a soldier but I found myself asking the same question over and over again.
Pretty early on, we are witness to one of the most horrendous women to ever grace the overused screen of my kindle. I had to walk away and scream into a pillow- she was that hideous. She's a complete cow who commits one of the worst offenses against a man- a soldier and has the nerve to try and paint herself as the victim. How does our hero respond, you ask? Does he yell? Does he throw her out of his apartment? Nope!!!
Skye Warren is an author I've enjoyed reading over and over. She is almost at the point where her work appears and I automatically one-click. Her books are somewhat unconventional, the don't always have the ending that gives you the warm and fuzzies. On the Way Home was not much different but as much as I liked Clint- I couldn't get over his submissiveness. it took away some of the dynamic for me but I suspect this is intentional. Our ereaders are flooded with nothing but alpha males who grunt and screw their way into the hearts of many readers. It was interesting to finally read about a reversal of roles from what I have grown accustomed to.
Della was strong, conflicted, and a domme. She actually had him by the junk. I liked the story and as I've always loved about Skye Warren's work- there's a little of the unpredictable...a twist. Plentiful are the characters you will love to despise and a nice amount of time is devoted to really feeling this couple's chemistry and connection.
I would recommend to many who like a little unconventional, especially if you've enjoyed Skye Warren in the past. But this one was simply not for me.
I'm so sad for me right now, apparently I only like my men one way...
A copy of this book was gifted to my in exchange for an honest review.
