attention was grabbed in the prologue and I was kept on the edge of my seat reading, There was a lot of suspense and tension, Christian was confusing for me I appreciated her reasons for her actions, but when things were spinning I didn't understand her being quiet, Christian was very frustrating for me, Brayden is definitely a Kinncaid, he's smart, a good father and very protective of his friends and family, My complaint with Deadly Obsession is it moves very slowly, some of the things are very drawn out, I read in The Deadly Series Boxed Set Deadly,, I knew it was only a matter of time until this came to bite me in the ass, As they said, if something looks too good to be true, it probably is,
So far, Ive loved the first two books of this series,
As for this one, . I was so bloody mad half the time, I couldnt see straight,
Brayden and Christian couldve really had a nice little story going here, Yes, I know this was a romantic suspense, so there had to be some drama, hence the title of the book “Deadly Obsession”,
Ok, fine. Id roll with it. The action pretty much started almost immediately, which is when I grew weary considering how
long the book was,
All the drama that went on gave me a headache, I never wanted to deck a heroine of a story so badly as I did Christian aka Josephine, I mean, if you know someone is stalking youyou know WHO it isyou know this person is watching your every movesending you pictures of your day to day doingscalling you incessantlyknows where you livewhat car you drivethe people involved in your lifesomeone who tortured you so badly in life that you had to run away and change your nameDONT YOU THINK YOU TELL SOMEONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THEN when this person attacks you in your home, drugs you, ties you up, ALMOST rapes youAND YOU STILL WONT GIVE UP ANY INFORMATIONtell mehow am I supposed to care How am I supposed to control the urge to hit you upside the head with my ereader How am I supposed to empathize or care about your story when you are too busy trying to play “hero” to a family that YOU KNOW will defend anyone or anything that is THEIRS
GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was BEYOND frustrated, to the point that I just started to skip through whenever she started her crying and whining and putting up that damn steel wall she so comfortably embraced.
And then when she would get mad at Brayden for being upset at her!!! Oh man, god bless that man and his patience,
I honestly felt like this time around, the feelings amp connection lacked, Christian was a glutton for punishment who lacked common sense and had a hero complex that ultimately ended up causing more harm than not.
And when Brayden, the man he was, took her away to try and allow her to get herself together, took him away from his daughter, the woman STILL had the balls to selfishly withhold information from him.
This family honestly needs to invest stock into Sibley Hospital since they spend a majority of their time there,
While my being upset has to do with her, I will still continue on to Ians story because I honestly am extremely intrigued as to what the heck this man does and if he will ever make it back to be with the rest of the Kinncaids.
.In thisrd book the storyline was ok, I thought Christian's mother was a piece of crap amp she deserved to go to jail for what she let happen to Christian, Her mother didn't even deserved to be called her mother, Christian's stepfather also was a piece of crap amp he got what he deserved, I really loved how the Kinncaid family sticks together, The only thing that got on my nerves in this story Christian took to long to tell the Kinncaids the truth, Yes. After reading the other books in Jaycee Clark's 'Deadly' series, I finally got "Deadly Obsession", It's another spinetingler that will have you shuddering and cringing from the twisted, psychotic villain and his obsession with the heroine,
Christian has made her home with the Kinncaid's for the last nine years, She still can't quite remember how she came to their home, but will be forever thankful that they offered her terrified younger self a safe haven and a family so much better than the one she fled.
And now, as an adult, she and Brayden Kinncaid are finally facing the feelings that have grown between them, But just when Christian thinks her life is her own, . . she acquires a stalker. And it's not just any stalker, it's the one she fled from all those years ago, His message to 'his Angel' 'You'll always be mine, '
I still get shivers writing that last sentence, I'll say again that Clark can write some of the scariest psychos you'll ever read about, Now I have to find out why the youngest Kinncaid brother's story hasn't been published yet, Cause it's one I want to read, This is a great book and was one of my fav so far with the exception, I felt she left out a major part at the end hope that sense will show up in book, I had a hard time with the killer in this book a sick individual this one was, almost think more so then the first two.
Scary to think about. The love that the leads show to each other and how he stands by her know matter how mad he get, My :
Overall
Performance. .
Story
So far, this has definitely been the best of the series, I loved this book probably just because Christian and Brayden have had such a long relationship, She had been part of the family since she ran away from her family in her teens, To the other Kinncaid brothers, she's like a sister, which is why Brayden is so discombobulated by his new sexual feelings for her, He doesn't know what to do with this, but knows he doesn't want to do anything that could threaten Christian's standing in the family, so he steps back from his feelings for her.
Something she does not appreciate at all,
I liked the byplay between Christian and Brayden at the beginning and LOVED how she stood up to him, She's always been there for him in raising his daughter Tori and just assumes that she always will be, no matter what happens between them emotionally.
I love that she stood up to him on that and showed him that he couldn't take advantage of her, And watching her entire lifestory unfold was heartbreaking, She's been through so much and has come out as such a strong character, I loved her.
And with this entire series, . . Kinncaid men one word YUMMY! Brayden doesn't change that at all, I love these guys and how protective they are and how they all work together to protect their women, . . including Ian, the black sheep who always shows up to help out, I can't wait for his story!
And, as always, Johanna Parker was AMAZING at her narration, I love her voices both male and female. They work for me and she is definitely up there as one my favorite narrators,
I liked this, and I still love the Kinncaid's, but I enjoyed the others more Rating,stars
This is the second twin's story and Christian who has been a part of their family for the past nine years.
She showed up on their doorstep as a teenager and never left, becoming the hero's daughter's mom for all intent and purposes and when the book starts they have just given into their passion and admitted their love for each other but the hero panics and blames it on the alcohol.
Now, the problems I had in the book was that we aren't given much information on the hero's daughter's dead mother and the heroine's inability to voice the name of the guy who made her life a hell.
The heroine to make the hero see what he is missing moves out and then the man who destroyed her and forced her to run finds her again and she is that scared, brutalized teenager all over again.
What the heroine went through was horrific and her mom was a monster, what I didn't like was why the heroine holds on to the name of the man who did this to her.
Yes, the people who had tried to help her before had suffered and I got her rationale but later she should have said something.
All in all I enjoyed the book, the characters were already in love and their only obstacle was a monster, I read this as part of The Deadly Series Boxed Set,
While I liked Brayden, he seemed a bit more blah than Aiden and Gavin, nothing made him stand out from the other brothers.
Ian was the most interesting character in the book, and I am looking forward to his story,
Christian's backstory was pretty horrific, hard to read at times, But her behavior was completely puzzling, I know she was concerned about everyone's safety, but the fact that her boyfriend and his family are sitting on billions of dollars should have made her a little more forthcoming.
Richard is wealthy and powerful, but I would argue that the Kinncaid's have more money and that buys as much power as they want.
So, I spent almost the entire book being frustrated by Christian's secretiveness,
The villain gets a satisfying ending, so I was happy with that,
