I finished Until Joe and remembered I hadn't read book three in the wallflowers series. Don't even ask why not as I have no idea. I think it's because I had to wait and I had forgotten what had happened in the previous two so I just kept putting it off. But after I put down Until Joe I just needed more C.P. Smith so I jumped on Amazon and it was a KU title so I jumped right in.
So yeah that was my Sunday. Because once I picked it up I was completely immersed in all things wallflowers and their Neanderthal, alpha men. I don't know how I forgot how obsessed I was with this series but OMG I loved it.
Poppy was such a sweetheart and for everything she went through she was forged in fire. I loved how she brought everything back to book tropes and storylines. She was hilarious and sweet and everything about her made me love her.
But naturally I am in serious love with Nate aka Bodacious Bar Owner. He can throw me over his shoulder any day. Aside from the fact he is physically flawless, his jealous, protective care of Poppy was beautiful. I loved these two as a couple so much.
And even with all the tropes Poppy pointed out for us going on in this story I couldn't get enough. Everything worked so well together and was resolved so perfectly I couldn't be happier. I can't wait to see the next book in the series and see which of our wallflowers is having a highland wedding.

So as soon as I put down Three of a
Kind I immediately had to start Double Trouble and I can honestly say the high
standard I was expecting was met. The book kicked off with a short prologue
then jumps right in where we left off.
I do have to
admit I had a moment of doubt when I thought I knew where the story was going
and I was expecting drama central but I was way off and got nothing at all that
I expected. I ended up on the edge of my seat trying to guess what was going on
and the plot twists were so perfect I didn't see them coming.
Of course I
already knew I loved Sienna and Colt and since we were so thoroughly introduced
to them in book 1 I felt like we were old mates. And because the wallflowers
are so tight we got an amazing continuation of the first couple. In fact it
just flows so beautifully it was like the first story just continued from a
different point of view.
The almost cliff-hanger
at the end of this was awesome. I absolutely did not see that coming and it has
me so desperate for Poppy's book I am going to be stalking C.P. Smith like a
crazy person.
If you are a
fan of Kristen Ashley then this is your new favourite author.
I don't know how I managed to forget how much I love C.P.
Smith's writing. I have read and obsessed over every one of her other novels
and when this one was released I flaked. And now that I have read it (devoured
it in one sitting while swearing to my husband I was going to put it down in a
second (#sorrynotsorry)) I want to go back and kick myself for not reading it
sooner.
First, I have to say that for me this book was like reading
Kristen Ashley with a Southern accent. The theme worked to perfection. The
characters were engaging. The secondary characters were great. There was not a
single thing that I didn't love.
Calla was so beautiful inside and out. I couldn't have loved
her more. Her personality and attitude had me so invested in her I felt like we
were old friends.
Devin OMFG Devin. I love that they spent the whole book
comparing him to a romance novel hero and he just kept knocking it out of the
park. I mean seriously he growled, got jealous and possessive and had the whole
alpha thing down.
And despite the fact there was a fair bit going on, the way
it was written made it all flow so smoothly. Now I just have to wait to watch
the rest of the wallflowers bloom.
