A review by sasukekun
Blue-Eyed Devil by Lisa Kleypas
4.0
I picked this book from the shelf of a local library and decided to see if it was worth reading.
The first chapter got me hooked because it screamed sexy. And just when you thought, "Well there's the meet-cute (meet-sexy, rather), what now?"...you get hit with an emotional roller coaster. That's where the story is, ultimately. From entering, enduring, and coping with the pain that Haven goes through.
Hardy Cates. Well, what can I say? Great guy. Sexy guy. A man. Delicious, sexy, manly. Yup. If I ever need saving, I'm screaming 'Hardy'. And if I needed a little bit more of something (not in a little way), I'd scream 'Hardy', too. Why not? I went all melt-y.
I think Kleypas did a great job of matching the two. The relationship between them is more of a mutual repair and hashing/rehashing of their pasts. They go through so much, that finding each other is really the only ointment you can apply. (What kind of metaphor was that? Don't ask me.)
I enjoyed reading this. I had to leave the library after reading the first three chapters...so I went ahead and bought the book. Finished it in three days. Could have finished in one, but there's no rush. It's a good read. You'll hate the ones you're supposed to hate, and love the ones that you love (especially Gage).
Hardy Cates? Yes please.
