Call on Me by Roni Loren
5.0
I was so desperate for Pike's story that I broke sequence. I just couldn't wait! I was not disappointed. I really liked that this book had a different view of the whole D/s thing. After Foster and Cela's story, I welcomed something a little less extreme. Saying that if the BDSM theme is your thing, then this story is pretty light and fluffy. They don't even go to The Ranch!
But what was nice was that they switched a bit which was a bit refreshing. I liked that Oakley was strong and talented. She didn't cower and stutter over Pike like Cela did. I liked that she held out and stuck to her guns. I also enjoyed the fact that they were both musical. I thought this generated a realistic bond.
The storyline was pretty angsty, par for the course in this series, but it didn't drag me down. This story plods along in comparison to some of the thriller/action based storylines found in other books in this series. I felt it gave the story a slowness; a less frantic vibe than the others which I actually liked.
Well lets face it; i just love dirty talking and Pike was full of it. The whole phone sex operator story was just my kind of thing so it's 5 stars all the way for me.
My only criticism is that it was a little HEA at then end. It gets a bit old fashioned and syrupy for me. I was sad Pike had to compromise his job and I felt Reagan's spectrum issues were a bit gauzy and non specific. I felt more could have been made of this as it felt a bot half hearted.
