Book Review, Giveaway: INFINITE (A Carolina Beach Novel #3) by Cecy Robson

INFINITE

by Cecy Robson 
A Carolina Beach Novel, #3 
Publication Date: August 15, 2018 
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance, Standalone


NEW RELEASE!

SYNOPSIS

Hale Wilder, aka the Anaconda of Wall Street, spent his childhood fighting to be the best to win his father’s love. He was the best student and the best athlete, who grew into a successful businessman and took the finance world by storm. Want to retire before you’re forty-five? He’s got you. Need your millions to be billions? He’s your man.

Young, rich, and powerful, Hale was unstoppable, until a company scandal destroys his reputation and threatens to bring down everything he’s bled for.

Becca Shields is the kickass public relations goddess spinning scandals to gold and launching has-beens into superstardom. She never expected to see Hale again—not following the humiliating night when her family caught them on the beach, barely clothed.

When Becca discovers Hale is in trouble, she can’t turn her back on the boy who was once her world and the man she never forgot.

Hale never thought he’d have another shot at greatness or with Becca. Now that he has both, he won’t let either go without a fight.

*NOTE* Although a part of a series, INFINITE can be read as a complete STANDALONE and features a new couple!

Favorite Quotes:

She smiles. It’s not that friendly smile I’ve seen her flash to her devoted fans. Come to think of it, I think sharks might have fewer teeth.

I don’t like machines that are smarter than me. I don’t think it’s natural…Ever see the Terminator? … As far as I’m concerned, that’s a lesson in the making.

Candy and flowers are overrated, Becks. Give me clean floors and dinner started and Callahan can have me any way he wants.

You come across as fine and sweet as sugar until you open your mouth and cuss viciously enough to send a drunken sailor staggering off and screaming.



My Review:

Cecy Robson is a recent find for me and each time I read her work I adore her even more.  Infinite was well-crafted and evenly balanced between heart-squeezing family dysfunction, heartbreaking insights, swoony romance, and amusing wit.  I relish Ms. Robson’s clever humor and comedic observations.  My curiosity was captured and held throughout each well-paced and engaging storyline.  I fell hard and fast for this couple and was reluctant to put my Kindle down.  There were just a few sensual scenes but oh my, they left me breathless.  Cecy Robson has the word voodoo and I will gladly fall under her spell time and time again.

Book Review: Save Me by Cecy Robson




Save Me 

(O'Brien Family #5)

by Cecy Robson





RT Book Reviews proclaims that the O’Brien Family series from award-winning author Cecy Robson “has the hottest brothers ever!” And in SAVE ME, it's time for Seamus, the family’s most notorious bachelor, to find true love.

Three weddings. No date. What’s a hot stud to do when all the women on his speed dial are either serving dinner to their families or serving time?

Out of all the O’Briens, Seamus is the best-looking, most creative, and, did I mention, best-looking? Single at almost forty wasn’t a big deal until every sibling in his large and loud Irish family found “the one.” Now, he’s desperate for a wedding date, one he doesn’t have to worry will make out with the limo driver or rob the bride and groom blind.

Allie Mendes is the good daughter, who’s spent her life living in her perfect sister’s shadow. But when her sister steals the man Allie was supposed to marry, that shadow she’s lived in threatens to swallow her whole. Allie wants to believe a bright future awaits. But when she begs God to save her from this disastrous twist of fate, the last person she expects Him to send her is Seamus O’Brien.

Allie needs a stand-in boyfriend to avoid appearing as lonely as she feels. Seamus needs a decent woman without an ankle bracelet or a rap sheet as long as his muscular arms. The two make a deal to pose as each other’s perfect date. But weddings mean romance and a chance at forever neither had planned.

Favorite Quotes:



There are a few grays on my temples, too, but for some reason the chest hair seems to bother him more… “It’s what the ladies call dignified.” They really don’t. More to the point, they say things like, “Ride me, cowboy” or “faster, my probation officer will be here soon.” The latter only happened once, okay twice, but in my defense, it was with the same broad.


I wanted to get married on the beach with just us. But no. Ma insists I get married in a church or risk God releasing a plague that will have flying monkeys shooting out of my lady bits. No one needs that…


We just don’t want you to be alone, you know? You hear about those spinster women found dead, their faces half-eaten by their twenty cats. We don’t want that to be you. We don’t want to find you dead, alone, surrounded by asshole cats licking their whiskers.


We’re going to need to drop a few bills on new clothes. The hair, I know someone who can fix it… You look like a Mormon and not the good kind. I mean the cult kind. The one with multiple wives and three hundred kids. The kind that make us Irish look infertile. Seriously, Allie. You’re sexy and everything. But if you told me you’re number four of six sister wives, I’d believe you based on what you’re wearing.


I try to tone down my smirk. It doesn’t work. Smirks are like wolves. You have to let them loose to run free.


She thought the guy was a manager at CBS. Turns out he’s a manager at CVS. She’s freaking out, trying to get it annulled, even though they spent the night banging like grizzlies in the woods with cymbals.

 


My Review:


I haven’t had this much fun in ages. Save Me was outrageously witty and highly amusing.  I smirked and barked aloud more than a few times as I read.  This is only my second time reading the delightfully clever words of Cecy Robson, but I am now a devoted and rabid fangirl.  I adore and admire her to such a massive degree she could hit me up for a kidney if she were in need of a spare.  I gleefully inhaled this engaging tale that not only had me howling with mirthful laughter but also found me choking up with sweet tears during a tenderly written and emotionally moving wedding scene.  I am greedy to read all the previous books in this series as well as every other book this talented scribe has produced.  I gluttonously covet all her clever words.
