Title: Besieged
Author: L.P. Lovell
Genre: New Adult
Publication Date: February 14, 2014
Tour Host: Dreams Come True Promotions
What would you do if you were granted millions of pounds and a face that melts the underwear off of any woman? Meet Theodore Ellis, the business man who parties like a rock star, and has more women than he has room on his bed post to put the notches.
Meet Lilly Parker. With a difficult past; Lilly is cold, closed off and emotionally unavailable in every way. Don't go thinking she's the sweet and innocent victim though, she plays the game better than most men, and is the original use and abuse woman.
She's built her walls ten feet high and topped with razor wire, but Theo is relentless in the face of a challenge and Lilly finds herself besieged by him. Can he get in her pants? Or will the unsuspecting man whore go a step further and finally tear down her walls? Unlikely.
This is no hearts and flowers love story, it is a battle of wills as a woman who trusts no-one denies a man who has never been denied.
Cue fireworks as female sass meets alpha male tenacity.
Besieged will make you laugh, fantasize and perhaps even shed a tear.
Fuck me running! I'm not sure
if I was just stunned into silence or left just wanting to put
my hands down my pants. I went from being sexually frustrated to panting
and frantically trying to keep up with battery changes. Ms. Lovell
isn't fucking around with this book - A Game. She brought it. When an
author can write characters that consume you with their strength and
attitude, and by the end of the book leave you feeling numb- it's a
fucking must read. We will touch more on that numb part shortly. Bad ass
female - arrogant confident man topped off with sexy banter that makes
you tingle in all the right spots - CHECK PLEASE!
Theo
- man slut of the year, who happened to get knocked on his ass when he
met his match in the "I don't want any ties" department. Watching these
two have a battle of who will drop their pants first makes you almost
cum onsite when it does finally happen. Lilly, man did I love her.
Broken from an undeniable horrific past, she uses a hard exterior to
mask her feelings. Theo was having none of it. I think he fell in love
the moment she stopped and winked at him while he was pelvic thrusting
another girl. Did I mention I love her? Yeah.
I need book 2 now. Theo was just starting to hit a little possessive streak that I feel should be thoroughly checked out - by ME. Even though at one point I was so pissed off I wasn't sure I would go on. I gave my Kindle the stink eye for a solid 10 minutes then pulled up my big girl panties and charged forward. The way you moved me from pissed off to making my heart hurt with the ending once again had me cussing you (I got over it). The book ends in a way that makes you feel devastated and yet oddly turned on with anticipation for book 2.

So good, I'm putting up the flag!
In the best traditions of Jodi Ellen Malpas,
L.P. Lovell has set the scene for another very British series
What would you do if you were granted millions of pounds
and a face that melts the underwear off of any woman?

First off, there's no getting away from the fact that this book
leaves us on one hell of a cliffhanger!!
Fortunately for author I love them!!
Sometimes, I want to be left on the edge of my seat
needing more and there's so much left to say.
needing more and there's so much left to say.
With spin-offs, I could easily see 5 fabulous books in the series
from this talented new author.
Ridiculously sassy, Lilly's comments cut like a knife.
“I don’t get involved with people because quite frankly
most people aren’t worth getting involved with.
I don’t need somebody to complete me,
I loved her from the moment that she threw up
in Theo's Aston Martin!
~ Classic!
"What do I have to do to get you into my bed?"
He asks shamelessly.
"Let me see. Shit gold."
I smile wryly.
He laughs. "You will end up in my bed Lilly.
Maybe not today or even tomorrow, but you will."
This guy thinks he's God's gift to women.
Oh, I am going to enjoy rejecting him.
I step closer to him until my lips
are only a few inches away from his.
I lean up to whisper in his ear.
"You just sealed your own failure. I hate arrogance and I hate assumption even more.
You assume I'll sleep with you."
My eyes flick confidently down his body.
"Never. Going. To happen."
He smiles brilliantly as he leans in close to me
and whispers against my neck.
"You can pretend Sugar,
but I can see it in your eyes. You want me."
I thoroughly enjoyed it,
I can't wait for Book 2 (coming this Autumn)
For me it's definately
4.5 'more, more, more please' stars! |
