Tamed (The Tangled, #3)

by Emma Chase

Stop me if you've heard this one before: girl meets player, they fall in love, player changes his ways.

It's a good story. But it's not our story. Ours is a lot more colourful.

When I met Dee, I knew right away that she was special. When she met me, she thought I was anything butspecial-I was exactly like every other guy who'd screwed her over and let her down. It took some time to convince her otherwise, but it turns out I can make a convincing argument when sex is at stake.

You might know where this story's headed. But the best part isn't where we ended up.

It's how we got there.

I did not expect to love this book as much as I did.  It's hard for me to love a guy more than I love Drew, I mean come on.   In all honesty, not just any guy can hang with Drew, he is the ultimate scene chewer.  But I swear, Matthew, I LOVE YOU.  Good grief.  He is just as cocky as Drew but there is something about him that adore in a different way than Drew.

Ms. Chase is so freaking talented.  Writing these books from a guy's POV and giving them all such distinctive voices. I don't know what I thought Matthew would be like, Dee Dee is soooo dominating and dynamic and for some reason, I thought he would be more subdued.  I could not have been more wrong! He was assertive and aggressive and cocky and sexy as hell ...and...and.  I could go on and on about Matthew.
Leaning close to her, I ask, "If not a banker, what do I look like?"

She smiles slowly and scrapes the olives off the toothpick with her teeth.

"You look like a Chippendales dancer."

Fabulous answer. I don't really need to explain to you why, do I?

In a low, seductive voice I say, "I  do have some great moves.  If banking doesn't work out, Chippendales is Plan B."

Delores is a force to be reckoned with.  She is intelligent and such a smart ass, she is my kind of girl!  (although certainly not without her issues) She does what she wants when she wants and doesn't give a crap.  She calls the shots where men are concerned and then she meets Matthew and they are so well matched and so much alike.  The title of this book, is PERFECT because, Matthew and Delores do "tame" each other in a way.  This book was so sexy, funny AND sweet.  Yes, it was the perfect combination.  I love it when a book gives you exactly what you did't know you were going to get...does that make sense?

As I read, I was messaging with Hildy of The Book Bosses, I laughed and flailed and ended up accidentally texting the Mr. about a certain incident in the book.  I meant to message Hildy and I randomly texted the Mr. and his response was...."Are you drunk?"  I messaged Hildy (correctly) told her what I did and laughed myself silly in the carpool line.

In conclusion:  Matthew is awesome.
