What can I say about Brynne? She gave this book heart. His (*hot*) strong alpha male shoulders carry so many burdens but he deals…possessively so. No wonder this guy protects and loves as fiercely as he does. Gitte: Yeah Ethan’s back story, though not as detailed as I would have liked, sure was emotional. Not to mention that Ethan has his own demons to confront. Jenny: She sure did! Ethan is still our gorgeous, super sexy, alpha, possessive hero who is coming to terms with the intense feelings he has for Brynne, and boy are they intense! His priority is keeping her safe, but at the same time he has to run a busy, successful business, provide support to Brynne and also encourage her to deal with her past demons. Raine really packed a punch telling Brynne’s story! No wonder this girl has these emotional barriers around her. I wasn’t expecting Brynne’s story to be so heartbreaking and awful. Brynne’s voice is so moving and so powerful. To hear her “tell it” with so much emotion had me spellbound and close to tears. Both of these characters are so tortured by their pasts but Gitte, it was Brynne’s story that broke my heart. Jenny: Oh what’s not to love about Ethan…**sigh**….This book has a lot of emotion because we get to experience their back stories unfolding – both Brynne and Ethan have painful pasts and we get to explore these in All In. To hear Ethan’s voice to be given an insight and to understand him who he is/where he has been how he got to where we met him in Naked. Gitte: I was too Jenny…could not wait to get inside this gorgeous alpha male’s head. Having said that, ideally I would love to read something from alternating POV’s from these two. There is something about her character that grabs me. I really did like hearing Ethan’s voice in this book, but I do think I prefer Brynne’s voice. I have been really looking forward to this book – I was dying to hear from Ethan.
This time the story is told through Ethan’s voice.
This is the very much anticipated second book in The Blackstone Affair series, it picks up where Naked (The Blackstone Affair #1) left off. Gitte: No doubt about it, at the end of the day it is about the book, its characters and the Author who give us a piece of their heart in the writing of their story! The last thing we would want is to spoil a readers enjoyment of a book. Of course we respected her wishes, even though it killed us not to discuss with our fellow readers.
Jenny: It sure was! We’ve been dying to tell people all about this book haven’t we? But Raine had asked everyone (reviewers etc) to keep it quiet until release day. Gitte: Absolutely Jenny, how excited were we to get Ethan back in our eager little hands!! It was so hard to keep quiet on this one! Jenny: So GG to say we were excited to get the ARC of All In last Sunday is a bit of an understatement wouldn’t you say?
