I’ve been on a contemporary romance kick lately, especially ones that feature protective-alpha-type guys. However, I can be pretty picky when it comes to those types of guys. I don’t like the super possessive, irrationally jealous, asinine kinds of guys who are always trying to control the girl. There was one of those kinds of guys in the book that I read before Hurricane, and he just completely turned me off from the story.
Hurricane’s Cormac O’Connell was a perfect example of the guys I like in this particular genre. He was a bit possessive, and could get easily worked up when other guys showed interest in Emily, but he didn’t go off the deep end running his mouth, getting into bullsh*t fights, and fooling around to try and hurt Emily (I absolutely HATE when that last bit happens in a book. I never fully forgive any MMC who does that crap.)
O’Connell was persistent though. And patient. And sweet. And I pretty much fell for him completely when I read this line:
If you need time, then I’ll give you time. If you need friendship, then I’ll give you friendship. But you’re mine, and when the time is right, when you’re ready, I’m coming for you.
I loved that even though O’Connell was crazy about Emily and wanted to rush into a serious and intense relationship with her, he knew that she needed time to heal from her traumas and met her pace. #MAJORSWOON
My two issues with this book:
1. The events that took place during the last 50% of the book felt a little rushed and therefore not wholly organic.
2. There were just too many typos to ignore.
