Harry aka H has had some really crappy luck and it always seems to be related to the number 13 and well life pretty much sucks right now but after getting roped into helping at a school fair things seems to be on the up after meeting Bunny aka Delilah. I just love the fact they have both been through a lot and are both proud people but seem to have finally met their one that will show them they can lean on someone else. There is plenty of fun, tension, hope and the will for a happy ending while you get to know them both that will keep you hooked until the very end

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Love this author hard. Didn’t love this book.

I liked the character of H in the previous books in the series. Funny guy. I was gutted when he had his cancer diagnosis and what it would mean for his future.

He meets bunny girl Delilah, not a playboy bunny, a girl wearing a bunny outfit! She has her own body issues and a violent ex - his story morphs into something that comes left field and it felt unnecessary. Like it was thrown in but had no bearing on anything before it or after it and was nothing at all to do with the plot.

It didn’t grab me but I felt the need to get to the end.

I will forever love goats.

“I’ve been abducted by a sex-trafficking ring.”

Okay not really. But if you’ve every woken up in recovery after major surgery, it is pretty much an unnerving process wondering where you are and how you got there. Now this has nothing to do with Harry and Lilah’s story, but that quote is in the start of the prologue, that’s the funny you’ll be in for with Thirteen. ES Carter is one of my recent author finds. Starting with her debut book, Nineteen, I’ve had the opportunity to watch this exceptional writing talent grow.

“I take one last look at her soft curves, perfect tits and firm arse and close my eyes to imprint the memory on my brain.”

I mean really, who wouldn’t love a man who looks at you and think of you that way. Harry is the ultimate book boyfriend. He is kind, funny, giving- in and out of bed. If you have had the opportunity to previous Love by Numbers books, you know what a perfect best friend Harry is. If you haven’t read any of the series, that’s okay this one stands alone. However, you’ll really, really want to read the others. And Lilah, what a strong female lead. Her story (and her twin) amazing and you want to give them huge sws’ Okay that’s all I’m going to give you. Just buy the book. You need the story to unfold for yourself. Anything I tell you will spoil it. Storyline is strong and rhythmic in its flow. You’ll laugh and giggle and fall a little bit more in love with the whole gang. 5 out of 5 “why are you still reading my review and not reading the story” stars

PS: I’ve been asked to write this review in exchange to allow the author to write her next book, ONE, in peace and quiet. Now we know this is impossible for me to do, but I’ve written my review anyways. I will still post to her author wall to hurry up. #impatiently waiting for Iz’s book for awhile now. ;)
