Captive of My Desires (Malory-Anderson Family #8)

Gambar
This book is really good!!! Although in the beginning I was wondering, how could the story was about pirates, but when the story had entered the main problem when Drew was arrested, the story became increasingly difficult to ignore. As written in the synopsis, 'who is charming and who is captive', in this novel I often asked who was the hell actually the true captain here?. I really like Gabrielle who were kind and unyielding. I love these characters like Gabby, she did not have prejudice to others and she was very easy to forgive, she could always read all situations, and immediately straighten out misunderstandings. She was also brave, honest, and always tried to reverse the situation if the situation was not in accordance with her will. Drew figure appeared quite annoying coupled with its reputation of 'a lover in every port', but it never made Gabby lied to herself that she was not too concerned with that reputation. She had the willpower to chang...

A Loving Scoundrel (Malory-Anderson Family #7)

Gambar
Because I read this series when Jeremy was 15 years old, so when I saw him at the age of 25 years, it feels like I've been following the story of Malory for 10 years. There are many reunions Malory - Anderson which again makes me want to read their novels. The figures who have married also feels more real as a happily married couple, but every couple always has a story full of conflict. Seeing the couple's partner along made me forget that in every story they have the hassle of the same complex as the novel I'm reading right now. It feels a bit strange but fun to see Jeremy finally decided to get married. Funny anyway, he is the most character who can not commit and finally declare himself surrendered to that image in the aisle. For the story, to be honest there are some emotions that did not feel up to the top and stopped. There are scenes that are too fast when the story could have been served with passionate emotion. But overall, the story is still worth to ...

Tender Rebel by Johanna Lindsey (Malory-Anderson Family #2)

I have not been this Malory series for such a long time, and now, when I read another, feels like I should open the other again. After I read this from the first book, I found that Johanna Lindsey has some uniqueness in her stories. That is the way she never forgot to make us open another book from the same series. She always makes us glance at the book before or afterwards. JL has always made me curious about the stories of other characters, though in this case I've read the other three books in this Malory series. When I read the first book, I felt compelled to read the story of James and Anthony. When I read The Present, I feel obliged to know the story between Warren and Amy roomates is unique. When I read the fourth book, I was intrigued by Jeremy's story that I had never read. Well, when I read this second book, Tender Rebel, suddenly I wanna read the first or the afterwards book I have ever read before. Indeed, when reading the Present, I do not really follow...

The Magic Of You by Johanna Lindsey (Malory-Anderson Family #4)

The Magic of You (Malory-Anderson Family Book 4) Indonesian Review for this novel: The Magic Of You I just finished 3 JL’s novels when I read this. And I gave two of them with 5 stars. Somehow I really love the way JL process her stories become very interesting and not boring at all. It’s adorable, funny, lively, exciting, romantic, strained, and certainly complete! I couldn’t stop myself to stop reading before I finished it. I just could take a break about 10 minutes before I should continue reading. Sometimes I know this kind of genre is unpredictable if I take a look the ending in this book. In this case, I finally just gave up to find the spoiler and read patiently from the start, which is I couldn't wait to finish. Normally I do not like stories where there is a conversation that does not involve the main character, especially if the viewpoint is put to the supporting cast. Well, this novel is an exception because I cannot stop falling in love for e...

Love Only Once by Johanna Lindsey (Mallory-Anderson #1)

Click here to see:  Indonesian Review for this Novel I like Johanna Lindsey.. Somehow this book is a good start for me to read Johanna Lindsey's book.. The story in this book is rather complicated and difficult to follow. I mean, if I was asked to tell the story in detail from the beginning, I was definitely confused to answer. But if you look my progress, you’ll know what I mean. From the beginning there were always parts that I wanted to pass because I hardly got the point and I became bored. But later, in some parts of the book, I felt like I should back to the part which I said I  didn't  get the point’. It’s because I needed the information. And I often felt like that. I think JL loves to put the mystery in her story, so we cannot forget how the story was going anyway. Sometimes I was not wondering and not curious about a few things, but suddenly surprised in simply so I have to repeat to read again like I said. Geez, Mallory family was really...
