Defenseless

My life is a secret.
His life is dangerous.
We’re both stubborn, calculating, and controlling.
Mark Dixon doesn’t know what he’s getting into. He doesn’t know his games could cost us our lives. I have to do what is necessary to keep us alive, and that means guarding my heart.
But I know I’m defenseless against him, and in the end, he’ll force me to surrender.


My Take

Defenseless features the return of everyone's favorite smart ass alpha male, Twilight, aka Mark Dixon, as he teams up with the one woman who enjoys keeping him on his toes even when he's sweeping her off her own.

From the first chapter Charlie & Mark's antics and sexy banter had me hooked. I had to know more! I loved that Charlie was no damsel in distress, she was a true badass in her own right. By making her such a female alpha readers were given the opportunity to not only really delve into Charlie's world but the history that had been discussed in previous books. It really set the scene for the events of this book and helped to really wrap up a lot of loose ends.

I could not recommend this book more! A thrill ride from start to finish, Defenseless is jam packed with tons of action, adventure, intrigue and suspense with lots of humor and sizzling chemistry between the leads. You do not want to miss this top notch action adventure! Grab your copy today and get ready to fall in love with Mark & Charlie. 

***NOTE: You can breathe easier, it's not a cliffhanger!

Liam wasn’t supposed to be my happily ever after.
He wasn’t even on my radar.
He was my husband’s best friend—forbidden.

But my husband is dead and I’m alone. I ache for him and I reach for Liam.

One night with Liam changed everything. Now I have to decide if I truly love him or if he’s just the consolation prize.


My Take

I have started and restarted this review so many times because it's hard to put in to words exactly the emotional roller coaster this book took me on. As a former military spouse I've experienced most of the same moments and situations Lee finds herself in (minus that hot best friend to make it all better) so I can definitely understand Lee's journey of grief. 

To me, how the author chose to reveal certain plot twists and explained the transition from grieving widow/barely surviving to acceptance and moving on felt really honest, real, and completely plausible. I liked how both she and Liam struggled with their feelings, being respectful to Aaron's memory and being true to their own relationship.

Of course, just when you think you have everything figured out in true Corinne Michaels fashion-she through us for a loop! What a twist it was! Holy hell, Batman, that ending made a fantastic book even better and now I am completely jonesing for the next book! May can not come soon enough!

I would wholeheartedly recommend this series to anyone who loves a good romance, smokin' hot military guys, and sparkin' chemistry between their two leads!
