dvenger 's review for:
Crave the Rose
by Karen Kincy
I love it. Don t ask me why, because everybody that had remotely heard of my tasted knows that i lean towards urban fantasy, steampunk more and towards contemporary when we're talking spies and assassins.
But for some reason this books just made my day. It made my day so well that i actually put my greedy paws on it as soon as it hit the shelves and just like Cinderella (no, i didn't forget one of my high heels somewhere)i just had to finish it the same day before the clock hit midnight.
For starters Bram was mm well, yum. Not because he was Irish (although that counted awfully much too) or because he had his moments of shyness (i had to hit myself to stop the huge dumb smile on my face from completely popping out and ruining my badass image) or because he was nice, understanding and poor baby had some Basically, to be honest it was because Bram was being Bram.
I have to admit thought that i didn't quite like Cassia at first But she came around after that because of.. circumstances. Like her boyfriend dying in car crash. Can't say he deserve her though *COUGH* douchebag *COUGH*. But Cassia had personality. And tats. Awesome tats. Epic tattoos with flowers. I drooled over them as much as i still drool after Bram. And the sex scenes (O.O) no regrets here 
None! But the point was, i liked most the book because of their relationship. I always love with unholy love the moments when two characters are dead set from the beginning not to get emotionally involved and you just know inside that along the way they would fall hard for each other between meaningful conversation and amazing roll between the sheets creativity bouts. It took me a while to be realize that these two characters were actually awfully close to my own age and that really made my day (and the book)way brighter. Call it young brain resemblance spotted in an ideal fantasy setting. Oh boy, but i really need to say it again. Bram was an utter darling 
I'm signing out now to retry a repeat on this book. What can i say? i like to reread stuff i like. As in a lot.

Spoiler
health problems, moments where my coddling instinct was engaged *it's the third time this month i fall for a book character*

because even after the poor guy was gentleman enough to jump into the water to help her (first time meeting her even) she still went with her boyfriend without a second glance
