BookLover Sue: Review & Giveaway - Overwhelmed by You by Nashoda Rose

Love is ugly and secrets will destroy you.

KAT

I don’t beg.
I don’t cry.
And I don’t give second chances.

Ream, the lead guitarist from the band Tear Asunder, deserves a gold medal for best dick move ever when he ran the moment he discovered my secret after two days of hot sex. Then he brings some chick to my coming home party from the hospital—after being shot.

I hate him.

Until …

Ream’s six foot two frame unfolds out of the car after being gone on tour for eight months. I stared, unable to help myself. And in my defense, any girl would stare. It would almost be rude not to because Ream was the type of guy who stood out. Not because he had pink hair or shouted or was obnoxious. No, it was because he was the complete opposite. Subtle and dangerously quiet. If he spoke, you’d better hope he liked you because otherwise you’d be falling at his feet begging for mercy. Except me … I don’t beg—ever. But when our eyes locked, it was Ream’s confident cold indifference that had my nerves shooting off like jet sprinklers.

Then…

Ream told me he didn’t need a second chance because he was still working on his first.

REAM

Sex is ugly. It’s using someone for your own narcissistic pleasure. I did it and I hated it—until her. She was unfuckinexpected. Then I had to wreck our beginning with my screwed up past.

I don’t deserve her, but I’m selfish and I’m taking her anyway. This is who I am and it’s too late to change me.

A contemporary romance with lots of angst and a taste of dark.

Overwhelmed By You was a great story. This book takes place shortly after Torn From You ended. Kat has been trying to deal with the loss of Ream and has started a relationship with a new man. Ream has decided that he needs Kat but has many obstacles and hurtful actions to overcome to get back in her good graces and bed. I loved the re-building of the relationship between Kat and Ream and felt that Nashoda Rose did a wonderful job with this emotional and slightly dark romance. The story was very well written and literally kept me on the edge of my seat unwilling to close the book until the very end. I don't want to give away any secrets so I will just say, read this wonderful yet dark series and find yourself engrossed in a fantastic group of tales. I do recommend that you read the first two books to fully enjoy and understand this story, you will not be disappointed! ~Booklover Sue
