Brandon Montgomery has found the girl that he has always wanted. He can’t picture his life without Spencer Marshall in it, because she’s like his rock. She’s smart, funny, the most beautiful woman he has ever seen and… of course, a good dancer.

After his crazy ex-girlfriend tried to take Spencer from him, Brandon can’t picture his life without falling asleep with Spencer each night and waking up each morning with her in his arms.

However, ghosts from his past keep showing their ugly heads, and one tragic night, Spencer is taken from him.

Can Brandon protect Spencer like he promised her father that he would? Can he get to Spencer before it’s too late, or will his past take the future he has always wanted?

I was given an ARC of Wanting Spencer and I absolutely loved it. With each book that I've read in this series I fall more in love with Brandon and Spencer. I loved getting to see Brandon's side of things from his POV, and enjoyed the scenes we didn't get to see in Wanted. Loved the proposal scene and the actual process of Brandon getting the engagement ring! There was nothing about this I didn't love and especially love seeing Brandon so possesive and loving of his girl! I can't wait for the final novella from Brandon's POV to come out! Anyone who reads this will fall more in love with Brandon and Spencer just like I did!

Desejando Spencer é um livro que sinceramente achei que não precisava. A autora poderia ter explorado este livro junto com o segundo livro, Tudo o que eu Desejo, da mesma forma que o livro Encontrando Spencer, poderia estar entrelaçado com o primeiro livro, Tudo o que eu Preciso.

No entanto, acho válido colocar uma observação que me veio depois: Conversando com a Cristiane Saavedra, ela me explicou algo importante sobre esses livros com o ponto de vista do Brandon e achei interessante compartilhar com vocês.
Os livros quando foram feitos, inicialmente, eram somente no ponto de vista da Spencer, não havia as intercalações de pontos de vista nos livros. No entanto, depois da história da Spencer ter sido finalizada, a autora, atendendo os pedidos dos fãs, fez os livros no ponto de vista do Brandon. É por isso que a história é a mesma, com alguns pontos a mais. É importante ter isto em mente ao ler essa série, pois quando chegar no livro 1,5 e 2,5, fará diferença para você, leitor.

O livro é todo narrado pelo ponto de vista do Brandon, contando a mesma história que encontramos no livro Tudo o que eu Desejo. Mesmo que agora estamos conhecendo os sentimentos do Brandon, as angústias, os pensamentos e desejos, ainda sim, você acaba se vendo mergulhado na mesma história. Por um lado, é interessante você conhecer o ponto de vista masculino na íntegra, mas poderia ter sido trabalhado de outra forma.
Brandon está lidando com o passado o perseguindo, mesmo que a Kristy tenha enfim o deixado em paz, agora ele se vê imerso em outro problema, mas que se mantém oculto a todo momento. Atormentando a vida de Spencer, principalmente por acabar assustando-a, ele está fazendo de tudo para protege-la e cuidar dela, além de descobrir que os sentimentos que ele nutre por ela está cada vez mais forte e intenso. Se ver mergulhado nos sentimentos do Brandon é algo extremamente fascinante, pois normalmente o ponto de vista feminino que é explorado.
A autora soube explorar o casal e seus amigos, algo que apreciei imensamente, pois diferente dos outros livros, eles aparecem, mas o foco sempre é dado somente ao casal, no entanto, aqui foi diferente. Além de estar ligado ao lado familiar também, pois vemos a felicidade de Brandon ao estar convivendo com os seus familiares e proporcionando ao leitor compreender como era a vida dele e todo o carinho e preocupação que ele sente por sua família. O final deste livro me instiga a querer o próximo mais do que o final do primeiro livro. A autora deixou o mistério no ar, causando minha curiosidade e isso me faz desejar o próximo com mais intensidade.
É um livro que você pode ler sem preocupação, principalmente se você leu o anterior, pois aqui só nos mostra como Brandon via e claro, alguns detalhes que foram importantes para ele, apresentando que ele, apesar de tudo, tem uma vida além de Spencer.
A capa, se mantendo original é algo que aprecio, junto com a tipografia estar mantendo-se, consequentemente mantendo uma ótima identidade visual. A diagramação do livro está simplesmente impecável e linda. Apesar de eu sempre apresentar como um ponto negativo as revisões, desta vez, adorei a revisão. Mostrou que houve mais cuidado, sendo algo que aprecio imensamente.
É um livro para se ler somente para adquirir pontos necessários para compreensão dos pensamentos do Brandon, mas se não houver a leitura deste livro, ainda é possível ler o próximo livro sem problema nenhum.

I LOVE BRANDON'S POV !!!!

I am so addicted to reading this series through Brandon's POV. I almost would rather read male POV's I just feel despite the fact that men usually stink at admitting feelings you get so much more from their POV's than you do female. I know it is not the whole story but it does so much more for me !!

Brandon is definitely a great guy. Yes he has a past and it comes back to haunt him more than once , Spencer seems to always be the way they choose to get to him. Thankfully overcoming this has been possible and their love is even stronger. Brandon has no issue expressing his feelings about Spencer to anyone , it is refreshing , yes it is fast but he admits that and trusts that his heart is right. He is a typical guy , sex always on his mind , if he is not having sex with Spencer he is thinking of it while getting himself off !! I have to laugh because it is just the truth !! You cannot get more real than that. And damn it is HOT !!

The journey in this story is rough. We have Spencer recovering from Christy's attack , a stalker they cannot seem to pin-point , major life decisions being made between Spencer and Brandon & of course a to of happy times as well , plus HOT SEX !! Knowing what happens in Book 2 you will want to read this so you can get into Brandon's mind and see his true feelings and his plans for their future grow from thoughts to actions. You also get to see more of his friendship and relationship with his family. I truly enjoyed reading this and cannot wait for more. Not to mention the HUGE CLIFFHANGER ENDING !!

This is Book 2.5 in the B&S Series by Kimberly Knight. You’ll want to read Where I Need to Be, Finding Spencer, and Wanted before diving head first into Wanting Spencer. The timeline for Wanting Spencer is the exact timeline as Wanted only it is written from Brandon’s Point of View.

I’ve read all the books in the B&S Series and I think Wanted was my favorite of all of them. Following the Wanted timeline we start Wanting Spencer just before Brandon and Spencer’s trip to Texas and it ends just as he and Spencer have just taken their relationship to the next level. Okay, so stepping into Brandon’s point of view after reading Wanted from Spencer’s point of view we know what’s going on, but it’s interesting to see it from his mind instead of hers.

With situations like the Bachelor party, the kidnapping, and the late night Facetime scenario. Also, what was going through his mind when trying to find Spencer’s stalker. Oh, and what was Brandon really thinking when Spencer wore the Cowboy’s jersey. ;)Kimberly Knight has successfully tapped into Brandon’s character to bring us a truly delicious addition to the B&S series.

I LOVE BRANDON! And is it just me or do these novellas just get hotter each time!?! Each of these alternate POV's are making me fall just that bit harder for Brandon and his devotion to Spencer is just awesome! And so is his libido and you are in store for some amazing alternate POV's of the hottest scenes in this book. Brandon just can keep himself under control and his hand off Spencer at all in this instillment! And I LOVE IT (AND HIM!!)

I am loving being inside Brandon's head and Kimberly has totally pulled off a fantastic companion series here! I love how wrong I have been about Brandon when reading some of his takes on the scenes from Spencers POV! He is just absolutely devoted to Spencer and just hearing what lengths he will got to for her melts my heart every time! And I loved his preparations for the proposal and the ring!!!

Book three is just going to knock my socks off and I CANNOT WAIT for this to be released!!! (And I'm off shopping for a stash of dry panties too!)

Spence and Brandon! A power couple who's power is in the strength they love each other completely!

This book is written from Brandon's POV so make sure you read Wanted first. I mean in reality make sure you read this in order so that you are not lost and can enjoy both POV's. But I truly enjoy reading the thought that go through this amazingly protective Alpha Male. Funny and incredibly protective we get to grasp how deeply he loves Spencer. I love the way it ends even though most might not(which is why you have to read Wanted) But I am really curious as to what was going through Brandon's head when his brother comes into town. Yeah I can't wait for the next installment!!!
Kimberly I can't get enough! Keep em coming!

[Rachel Hendry · Rating 5 out of 5]

Since reading the B&S series I have fallen hard for our Brandon...I felt the emotion...the heat and the all encompassing love Brandon felt for Spencer from the initial books however these follow up books from Brandon's POV have been totally amazing and have made me realise that it was the very tip of the iceberg.
He loves her with everything he has and will do anything to make her happy...he is funny...sexy...charming and totally romantic...in fact he is perfect.
Thankyou once again ,another great installment full of ups and downs and even though we know all the outcomes already with this new perspective comes an almost brand new story.
Bring on Forever Spencer!

[Julie Kirby · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh Wow! Loved reading from Brandon's POV. We know the story, the trampy member from the gym hitting on Brandon, the great friendship between Brandon, Jason and Becca, we knew how besties Ryan and Spencer were there for each other!

BUT hearing how the events went down from Brandon, puts a whole new dimension on their story.

Getting sexy Brandon's POV with his worries and concerns.

Once all three books have been written (in his POV) this will be a fab story to read all together. Getting both sides I feel a great box set coming out in our near future!

It brough back all the memories as read in Spencer's POV! Great job!

A copy was provided by the author for an honest review.

I won a copy of Wanting Spencer from the author, thank you Kimberly Knight! I loved reading the B&S series as they came out in Spencer’s POV. Getting Brandon’s POV was like a refresher with bonuses. I do not reread books so this was perfect to get to revisit a great series without rereading. Being a Bay Area girl, I love that the B&S series is San Francisco based and they are Giants fans! I love the SF Giants plugs. I am really excited about getting more of Brandon’s brother in the upcoming books.

[Darcie · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am really enjoying hearing Brandon's point of view. I really enjoyed hearing about what he was thinking throughout all of the drama with the stalker. However, one of my favorite scenes with him and Jason was the buying of the ring. I am really anticipating Forever Spencer because I can't wait to see what he was thinking when this portion of their story happened. These novellas are the perfect touch to complete this series!

[Amber · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am so in love with this series. The novellas with Brandon's POV makes me fall for him so much more. Again we get to see things through Brandon's eyes and see how he feels about the things going on in his and Spencer's lives. I really love that he wears his heart on his sleeve when it comes to spencer. And I still think reading the story through his eyes all over again, just makes it that much hotter.

[Sarah Queen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kimberly Knight you rock!!!
I didn't think this series could get any better than they were and then boom...you decided to write from Brandon's pov. I love getting in Brandon's head and feeling all the love he has for Spencer.. I just love these two!!! :)
Can't wait for August not too far away now I'm sure I can b patient...or at least try lol
Love u kimberly knight..keep um coming :)

[Michele A. · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was interesting to see Brandon's POV from Wanted. Spencer really went through a lot in this book. Kimberly Knight did a great job of showing you how Spencer was thinking Spencer would leave him because he blamed himself for all of the bad things that happened to her. It did get quite steamy and is not something that someone under 18 should read.

[Ashley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love how after reading Spencer and Brandon's story through her eyes, we now continue to read it through Brandon's. What he thinks, feels, and actions that he takes to finally make her all his. What is not to love about this?! Can't wait for Forever Spencer coming later this summer.

[Megg Morgenstern · Rating 5 out of 5]

LOVE this book but I love to get the male POV. Same events and storyline as book #2 in this series but it's all Brandon's point of view. Loves to learn what he was thinking and how much he really loves Spence.

Amazing Book

I was excited to read Wanting Spencer and once again Kimberly Knight wrote another amazing book. I love the how we get to know Spencer via Brandon's POV.

Another hit in my books. Looking forward to the next installment. Bravo Kimberly!!

[Blythe Kyndahl · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love reading Brandon's POV

I loved reading this whole series. Knowing there is only one book left in the series makes me kinda sad. Brandon and Spencer's relationship draws you in as if you are living it for real!!!

[Rochelle Spaccamonti · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book...

I love dual point of view books. I enjoy reading both sides to the story. I love how the author captivates the make point of view in Brandon. She couldn't have done a better job.

As usual love Brandon and spencer!!

[Paige · Rating 4 out of 5]

Enjoyed more of Brandon's POV. Loved it just as much as Wanted, maybe even more because guys heads are sooooo much more interesting than chicks. Looking forward to the third.

Wanting Spencer (B&S #2.5) Club 24 Series
By Kimberly Knight
4 stars
Reviewed on behalf of 3 Degrees of Fiction Book Blog

So having read book 1 and 1.5 in the series I went straight into the second novella as I wanted to carry on reading from Brandon’s POV and I am still really enjoying it. I am still liking that it is told from his POV solely, it’s really different to read. There were some good twists and turns too and I really liked reading Brandon and Spencer’s story. I am looking forward to reading the next novella.

[Amanda · Rating 2 out of 5]

I was asked by the author for an honest review.

Much like Finding Spencer, it didn't seem like there was much new information revealed with Brandon's point of view beyond what was already in Wanted (other than confirming or denying one of Spencer's guesses). I'd recommend it to people who have read the rest of the Club 24 series and enjoyed Finding Spencer.

[Debbie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Again, Brandon's point of view. I like that you get the story, told through each of their eyes. Makes it very interesting!

[Jennifer Feltz Milkowski · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really enjoy Brandon's point of view. I enjoyed hearing how he handled Spencer's kidnapping. This book is really just amazing.
