A BBW in search of love + A sexy shifter only she can free = Smokin' Roaring Romance
When Rachel inherits her grandmother's home in the idyllic village of Honeycomb Falls, she decides to turn it into a gorgeous bed & breakfast. Yet will her plans survive her encounter with the sinfully hot werewolf masquerading as the gardener, or the darker heritage that her grandmother has left her, whom rumor has was a powerful witch?
Reader Note: This book contains searing sex (ice cream time-outs are recommended), adult language (he knows what he likes and he's not shy about demanding), and violence. If this is not the kind of stuff you like to read, skip this book. However, if you like dirty, raunchy sex with a sinfully hot wolf on one funny curvy girl, then this is right up your alley. Enjoy!
Okay, let's get this out of the way, I hate first person. It just annoys me and feels weird. Fortunately you forget after awhile. The story is interesting enough to over come the tense.
Rachel is awesome from the start, I adore a sassy curvy girl! Blake I kind of delightful with his Alpha attitude an carelessness at the same time. Great dynamic, having bothered sides POV helps you get to know them quicker.
Yummy smexy read. Man, I do love some naughty talk!! The steam is detailed and hot enough to have you begging for a cold shower!! Yum!!!
The world is fairly well developed, there were a few lose spots, but I can see things coming together as the series progresses. I am very interested in Anita's story rut, especially after seeing a bear on the cover!!
This is a new author for me and I see great potential. I hope we move away from first person, but I can deal if it doesn't. I am enjoying the concept and expect it to get better with each new book.
Would like to have characters with more character. Soft points definitely got in the way of any storyline . The underlying premis coujd be a good book.
Den and Breakfast (Book 1 of the Honeycomb Falls series) By Cassie Wright What a heck of a day and a start to a book. Death. Death of family. Death of a job. Death of a relationship. But with all death, new life grows. A well written book with descriptive verbiage, allowing me to see the countryside and even the old bridge. Grammar and verb tense was superb enabling me to read without pause. This is definitely an author I will be adding to my reading list and making a favorite on Amazon and Goodreads. Steamy sex scenes that served a purpose and weren’t just added to sell books. Characters that you can get behind and a touch of mystery so that I want to read more of the series to find out about them. There was a scene where the little Asian lady hit a mean werewolf over the head with a mop that normally would have had me laughing but I was so caught up in the moment and terrified for everyone’s safety that I couldn’t laugh until after I was done with that situation. Letters from the dead. After Mama B’s last letter, I cannot wait to read the next book and see how everyone’s lives grow and change. I can’t wait to find out more about the mysterious cook and housekeeper. Have book 2 loaded in my Kindle and will start reading it as soon as I post this. http://www.amazon.com/Den-Breakfast-P...
Take one beautiful, curvaceous woman and add one streaming hot alpha male werewolf and you're gonna get a good read. The sex ascends in this book are very hot and had this BBW crossing her own legs. (This book is definitely not for young teens.) The general plot is really good, although I would have liked to have seen it be stretched out a bit more. I read this entire book in about 3 hours once I had time to actually read it. Now the only thing that really it's me is the time line, I just can't seem to get it out of my thoughts when I'm thinking about this book. The first little bit seems ok, but once she gets to Honeycomb Hall everything seems to be on fast forward. Unless I'm mistaken, everything that happens once she arrives (which is almost the entire book, and is the meat of the story) all happens in less that a week. There's just something about that that it's irking me. Other than that I thoroughly enjoyed the book.
hot shape shifter the fact she made genuine new friends in a new town the sexy scenes
Things I hated:
the pace of the book was WAY too fast. I understand getting all hot and horny for the sexy guy, but telling him you love him in 2 days of meeting after you just got screwed over by your fiancé? no She automatically assumed she would get the okay to open the BnB and hired people before she knew if she could do it? The fact that she automatically got the magic, it would have been cool to read about her learning to do it and screw up a few times before she finally came into her power. I wish the pace was slower and the book was longer. When I buy a book I love to spend hours if not days reading it, this book took me less than an hour to read. I hated the "fight" scene.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I usually love shapeshifter romances but had a difficult time getting into this one. The relationship pacing is fast, as is the case in a lot of shifter romances. However, the story felt a little staccato to me from the introduction of new characters into the story to Rachel coming into her powers. For me, the pace felt like a stutter and then full steam ahead with Rachel knowing how to wield a power she was cautious to believe in. The story was not bad, and could have been stronger with a bit of refining but there were spicy moments between Rachel and Blake that kept the story interesting.
Den and Breakfast (Honeycomb Falls Book 1) by Cassie Wright is a fun and cute story.
Rachel, a witch, inherits her grandmother’s home in Honeycombs and decides to turn it into a bed and breakfast for shifters.
When she arrives at her grandmother’s house she meets the sexy Blake, a werewolf whom her grandmother cursed.
This book has a lot going for it with the two main characters causing sparks in and out of the bedroom, funny supporting characters, and magic. My favorite part in this book when Rachel believes in herself and her magic, showing she is strong and doesn’t always need a hot werewolf to save the day. It's quite the scene. :)
4 Star Book Review | Den and Breakfast by Cassie Wright
I gave Den and Breakfast a 4 STAR rating. This book is all kinds of intense and scorching! I loved Rachel and Blake, they really were perfect for each other. Even though Mama B. is dead in this book, her personality in the letter she left Rachel is impossible to love. The other shifters are at time menacing, pathetic, and brave, depending on which shifter we're talking about. And I can't wait to read Anita's story in the next book.
I didn't hate this book I just felt it was a little underdeveloped, the relationships with the characters wasn't very well established and it made the transition from one scenario to another feel forced and ingenious to me personally. I feel like I know very little about the main character except for her perceived body image. I feel like the secondary characters sometimes outshine the main characters and the staff itself is a conundrum, why is it conscious why is it British. Again it wasn't terrible and it was a nice quick read but to underdeveloped for me personally to continue the series.
The pace of this book ruined it for me. I feel like if it hadn't all happened in what seemed to be less than a week, It might have been more believable. Everything was so rushed. The concept was good. The characters were (mostly) interesting. The novella length? Ruined it. I did find Rachel to be weak, as a leading lady I like them to be somewhat strong, she was not. If something scared her she either instantly ran away and hid or attempted to do so. She never really fought back, until the end of course. Either way this book was pretty 'meeeeeh' for me.
Rachel and Blake are so hot together. Cassie Wright has written a sexy story whose plot is driven by the action. I loved how Rachel took a really awful day and used it to move her life in a new and totally differently path. She didn't get knocked down by the negativity and left herself open for love. Blake was a badass, angry Alpha, and when they met, BOOM, fireworks! The plot was good, the characters well developed, and the story moved quickly. It was fun to read, you will enjoy it too!
A smart original story that entices your imagination and captures your heart! The story is exciting, captivating and well written. The dialog is sweet, spicy, sexy. A handsome sexy alpha werewolf who has lost his pack. A beautiful curvy fledgling witch who has only just learned of her witch heritage. Throw in a deceased meddling grandmother for good measure who only wants happiness for granddaughter and you cook up a fantastic read!
Cassie Wright is a new author to me and I am very happy to have found her! Great characters, love her sense of humor and I like her writing style. Definitely a straight through read and I already got the next book before writing this. I am on my way to her web site to see what else she's got going on!
Actual storyline! I enjoyed reading this shifter erotic book. Especially when you add a curvy woman and throw in her being a witch. The sex scenes were very descriptive and extremely hot. And the book actually flowed. No cliffhangers is a huge bonus.
This book just really went too fast for me. Insta-love, insta-commitment, insta-HEA. The main character went from disastrous life drama (cheating boyfriend, losing job and death of relative) in one day, to brand new life love and friends in the span of about 4 days. Not a bad story just could have been a little more developed.
I really enjoyed this book. I loved the storyline and characters. It was interesting and different. I did find however that their relationship seemed a bit rushed and could have been developed at a slower pace. So I'm really looking forward to book 2 in thos series!
Well, it was close to what I was expecting. A quick and sexy read that didn't get too deep or serious. It is a bit over the top at times, but that is part of the fun. I particularly enjoy the letters from Mama B.
This is going to be such a fun series to read! I have never read anything from this author, but I am glad that I did now. The style of writing is easy to follow and makes it an enjoyable read. I can't wait to read the next of the series!
Totally fell in love with the characters. Hui Wang reminds me me of my mother! Don't mess with her, she would have beat you upside the head with a broom rather than a mop though. For your own good, of course. On to the next book!
To be honest, I did like this story. The story has danger, suspense, romance, and a Hot Alpha. I just have a hard time getting into stories about witches. Anyway, I will be reading more stories in this series as well.
Interesting read. Witch leaves her granddaughter her estate. Racheal goes to check it out, finds her grandmother has been holding a wolf shifter prisoner For two years. Decides to turn house into a B and B. For shifters. Falls in love with imprisoned Wolf.
This was okay. I wanted to enjoy it, since I enjoyed a standalone book later on in the series, but it didn't really do it for me. Maybe it was the insta-love? I don't know.
It wasn't terrible. In fact, some of the supernatural stuff was interesting. But on the whole, just okay.
