★DAY THREE★
ALMOST THERE, EVERYONE!!
Here is the third piece of the puzzle for the Rome (Marked Men #3) by Jay Crownover cover reveal. Tomorrow we will have the FULL reveal. I am antsy…very, very antsy!!
Cora Lewis is a whole lot of fun, and she knows how to keep her tattooed bad boy friends in line. But all that flash and sass hide the fact that she’s never gotten over the way her first love broke her heart. Now she has a plan to make sure that never happens again: She’s only going to fall in love with someone perfect.
Rome Archer is as far from perfect as a man can be. He’s stubborn and rigid, he’s bossy and has come back from his final tour of duty fundamentally broken. Rome’s used to filling a role: big brother, doting son, super soldier; and now none of these fit anymore. Now he’s just a man trying to figure out what to do with the rest of his life while keeping the demons of war and loss at bay. He would have been glad to suffer it alone, until Cora comes sweeping into his life and becomes the only color on his bleak horizon.
Perfect isn’t in the cards for these two, but imperfect might just last forever . . .
Check out my review for Jet (Marked Men #2)
Jet by Jay Crownover
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Jet Keller! Wow, what do I even say about this fine ass specimen of a man?
“Jet Keller was all kinds of temptation wrapped up in too-tight pants and with too many personal demons hidden in those dark, golden-rimmed eyes. He was every girl’s rock-and-roll fantasy, with an edge that made him just sharp enough to be hard to handle. And boy, oh boy, did I want to handle him in every way possible.” ~Ayden
Well, Ayden- I don’t think I could have said it better if I tried my damndest! That pretty much sums it up perfectly right there! And if that didn’t sell you let me try one more…
“But still, the sight of those abs, the ink that covered them and the twin hoops through his nipples turned all my good intentions and strictly marshaled thoughts to all things sexy and naughty, where they clearly didn’t need to be.” ~Ayden
Ummm…speak for yourself, Ayden. Because with that visual, I am very happy with the sexy and naughty thoughts running through my brain right now!!
“He tasted like whiskey and the sweetest kind of temptation there was.” ~Ayden
I can’t even begin to put into words the enjoyment I got out of reading ‘Jet’. From those very first lines to that last turn of the page (or click of my kindle actually) I was entranced! There was the perfect amount of angst without making you want to punch something. The perfect amount of hot and steamy to keep you…well, hot and steamy 🙂 The perfect amount of love and romance without being too mushy and it was all around just a fantastic read!
“Jet just reached right into the heart of where all that desire lived, where all that lust has percolated and boiled, and he pulled it to the surface with nothing more than a soft brush of fingertips and an artfully twisted tongue.” ~Ayden
Ayden <3
I fell in love with Ayden Cross from the get go. She is the perfect combination of feisty and sweet without missing anything between and has seen and been through more in her twenty-two years than most people go through in a lifetime. Picking up and moving to Colorado from a small Kentucky town, Ayden has decided to start over. A fresh beginning, if you will-and she isn’t looking back. There’s just too much pain and damage behind her to live the old life of Ayden Cross and Denver has proven to be the perfect place for her. Not only because a fresh new state means a fresh new beginning-but also because she meets some kick-ass friends who become very close and special to her. One of those being none other than Jet Keller.
“He was perfect, tattoos, piercings, messy hair, and too-tight jeans, all those things that made him Jet were wonderful and unique.” ~Ayden
These two might just be a recipe for disaster. Or, they could be the solutions to each other’s disasters. My vote?…well I think you know what that might be by now. I love these two so damn much! With their pasts, their families, their current situations, you can’t help but fall in love with them. My heart fought for Ayden and Jet so fucking hard! There were times when I wanted to grab ahold of Ayden’s shoulders, look into her whiskey-brown eyes, and just scream at her as loud as I could, “What the FUCK are you doing?” Then there were times, and a lot of them actually, where I wanted to grab ahold of her shoulders, look into those whiskey-brown eyes, and pull her tight and cry with her. She is one amazing girl!
“…I’ll sing you anything you want, Ayd, if it means you keep looking at me the way you’re looking at me right now. The long run can take care of itself much later.” ~Jet
“I knew that if I let him in, he would own me. If he sang to me with that beautiful voice and played the guitar for just me, with those hands covered in heavy rings and tipped in black fingernail polish, he would just simply own me.” ~Ayden
And don’t even get me started on Jet Keller. I wanted to grab him by his balls a couple times, and not in the good way either. Although, now that I think about it, that could’ve been fun too 😉 But more times than not, I wanted to drag these two into a room and lock them up until they talked their shit out. Never have two people needed to sit down and have a ‘coming-to-Jesus’ talk more than these two!!
Thankfully…well…you’ll see! Man, it sucks writing spoiler free reviews sometimes! I want to tell the world ALL ABOUT THIS BOOK!I want to shout from the damn rooftops how much I absolutely adore this book! I am head-over-heels in love with it. There isn’t a single thing that I would change. Well, actually, I wish I would have read Rule (book one in the Marked Men Series ) but that’s neither here nor there. Just a mistake on my part! But since I mentioned the series…Oh holy hot panties…hang tight girls because up next in the Marked Men series we have………ROME! I don’t think I have been this excited about the next book in a series in a very long time. Rome just speaks to my soul. Even with the little tiny bit of him that we get in Jet, I can just feel him. I am giddy with excitement over here if you can’t tell!
I just don’t think I will ever get enough of these books or these ‘Marked Men’! I am officially a lifetime fan of Jay Crownover
So that about wraps it up here! Overall, fan-fucking-tastic book. I recommend Jet to any and EVERYONE! You will laugh, cry, get all hot and bothered, laugh some more, cry some more, get all hot and bothered some more. And I promise, you will be left with a happy heart…well, at least I did!
I’m supposed to share interesting details about myself so that my readers get to know me so here we go in no particular order: I’m an natural redhead even though I haven’t seen my real hair color in years, I’m a big fan of tattoos and have a half sleeve on either arm and various other pieces all over the place, I’ve been in the bar industry since I was in college and it has always offered interesting insight into how men and women interact with each other, I have 3 dogs that are all crazy, I live in Colorado and love the snow, I love music and in all reality wish I could be a rock star not a writer or a bartender but I have zero talent so there is that.
I love to write, love to read and all I’m interested in is a good story with interesting characters that make the reader feel something.
