Here’s a series that comes highly recommended (readers say they laughed so hard and cried so hard). And while I can’t quite tell the *gist* of it yet (by the synopsis), it’s definitely romance, “she’s” super-independant and intrigued by this womanizer/controlling kind of guy. Is it kind of darkish? With book covers and titles like that, it would seem like it, but from the synopsis, I can’t tell. Is it paranormal? I don’t think so, but you know… his “name” and the fact that she can’t dig up any info on him, and she might be in danger? I really don’t know…
Oh well, no biggie. The recommendations I’ve received look great, so I wanna read it!
Shanda: Oh my gosh I just finished “Control” by M.S. Willis it is a MUST read… Maryse you’ve got to read this book. I think you will love it. I was so into it I totally lost track of time. There is swooning, angst, giggles and then there is you holding your breath through almost a whole chapter… so far reviews have it at a 5 star and I would agree.
Laura: The Control series by M.S. Willis is amazing and Conquer left me with a major book hangover. I would recommend the series to everyone.
Gina: I completely agree with Laura!!! The series is fantastic! The are parts that are so funny, I know someone who got a black eye from dropping her kindle while laughing so hard. And if you want a good cry or an ugly cry.. this is the series for you! It has it all. And I already miss my David….
LOL!!!! Now THAT sounds like my kind of read!!!! A black eye from laughing so hard (I’ve dropped my iPad on my nose once so I have an idea…), plus a good ol’ fashion ugly cry. YES PLEASE!!! PLUS! Look at how lucky we are, ’cause, all THREE book are now out!! YAY US!!
About book #1:
Paige Stone lived anything but a normal childhood. Having been raised around an abused women’s shelter operated by her parents, Paige was a constant witness to the tragedy and heartache suffered by women at the hands of the men they trusted. Out of refusal to ever allow that to happen to her,… Paige built walls around her heart at a young age. Those walls were only fortified when tragedy struck on her sixth birthday and took from her the only friend and love she knew. Now at 22 years old, and working as a private investigator, Paige is driven by a deep need for strength, independence and a stubborn refusal to accept help from another person. Surrounding herself with her three best friends, Paige never assumed that the autonomy she had worked so hard to build could be challenged.
That was, until Paige met Daemon Pierce.
Mysterious, strong-willed, and breathtakingly beautiful, Daemon seemed to instantly know Paige better than she knew herself. Paige is disgusted by Daemon’s reputation as a womanizer, but becomes intrigued when she is unable to discover his background. Paige’s curiosity about Daemon proves to be her downfall as she is swept up in his charming and arrogant pursuit to possess her in every possible way.
For the first time in her life, Paige will struggle for control while Daemon slowly dismantles the walls she has built around herself. Only time will tell who will be victorious in their battle of wills as Daemon teaches Paige the weaknesses within herself that she never knew existed. Paige stays one step ahead in her struggle against Daemon’s controlling ways, but when tragedy strikes her life a second time, she has to choose; will she put her life in danger, or will she finally accept a helping hand?

The Control series is great, I highly recommend it! It’s not just a love story, tho that’s a big part of it. Humor, colorful characters, hot sex and a creepy stalker/rapist/murderer, how could I not love this series! And to top it off, all 3 books are out now so no waiting! Perfect reads for the long holiday weekend!
Just completed the whole series…….On my nook, @Karen, I had to search mine by the author name. It was a good series, had a little bit of everything in it.
