Discover A Few Good Men (Harlequin Blaze #445) (Uniformly Hot!, #1) Generated By Tori Carrington File Readable Copy
the
Men were hot, I enjoyed learning about them but I wanted more, This was not meant to be more but I can't help myself in wanting more, Thanks Tori for good stories, I can't wait to read more, Four fast paced short stories of Marines finding a few good women for a few good men.
Lots of sex, little romance, maybe a little too short, Eddie and Megan were the best story, Harlequins are by rule rather short of course it depends on the imprint, so its quite a feat to find a good story, with a proper arc, welldeveloped characters, and believable actions and reactions.
Unfortunately this Blaze book has four short stories crammed into the space of one story and the plots suffered greatly.
Actually, none of the four "encounters" had much of a plot, Or interesting characters despite the males being all marine hunks, Or gripping story lines. Or good bedroom scenes which would be a small compensation for all the other lacks,
The first two stories were a complete waste of time and effort to try to relate to anything the characters said, did, or lived through.
And I wanted to deck the heroines,
The third encounter also raised my boxing instinct, Thanks to the heroine, again, but mostly because there was so much potential, but so little space to develop anything.
And the mediocre ending without heads or tails also didnt help,
The final story, the hero of which was at the center of the main arc, was the strongest of the bunch, but still severely lacking in execution, plot and interestholding.
The h/h were a little more developed, the hero had more depth than his three buddies combined, and the heroine was a true breath of fresh air from her three nervesgrating predecessors.
If the prologue and epilogue were any indications, the fourth story lengthened and strengthened wouldve been quite a good read, instead we got a great prologue promising us a bang of a story, mediocre four novellas that couldve been good PWP if the sex scenes were better, and an epilogue that was too short and certainly didnt accomplish anything.
disappointed sigh Putting this book down as erotica is so very wrong, The husband and wife duo under the name Tori Carrington wrote a heartwrenching romance book.
Other than people hooking up every now and then, this book is very emotional,
A Few Good Men is apart story aboutMarines, We get to know them each for a little bit as they come home and try to sort out their lives.
They all melt your heart, and some you remember better than the others when the book is done.
It's not always all feelgood, but it's worth your time picking up this book,
What's for sure, is that I'll be looking up more books by Tori Carrington.

The Harlequin Blaze series is typically cayenne pepper hot on the smutscale, but this book was more emotional than most.
Husbandandwife team "Tori Carrington" pen an angsty tale ofmarines' stories as they come back stateside, Although they're all from the same platoon, they are all in different stages of their lives, both professionally and romantically.
The stories are short and poignant, and really leave the reader wanting to know more, Well done, smooth writing, recommended, I liked the stories but they were just too short I really wanted to know what happened and how the couples got on and I really felt cheated that I didn't get that!
Harlequin books are short anyway and having crammedstories into the pages really didn't work for me.
There just wasn't enough of any of the stories, I wanted to know what happened in the end, A Few Good Men are four short stories about Marines who combat together and come home after a tour to different situations in their personal lives.
This sees them dealing with the long time away from home and coping with their loved ones when they try to get back to some normality.
This is a great way to start the Uniformly Hot series, Each story is written well with likeable characters and it is super sexy, How could it not with hot Marines This was a quick enjoyable read and would have loved to have an epilogue that tied the stories together making sure that each marine got back safely from their last tour.
Will definitely be looking out for other stories written by Ms Carrington, This was a pleasure to read, Weird. Corporal Eric Armstrong is finally going to meet his sexy new pen pal in the flesh, Only, Eric already knows her, . . very, very well!Corporal Eddie Cash has a reputation for living on the edge, Still, even he's worried about his next adventurefatherhood, Lieutenant Matt Guerrero has always been proud to serve his country, Only, this time it might cost him his marriage, Captain Brian Justice loves being a Marine, almost as much as he's starting to love Angela Mitchell.
Too bad he's about to lose them both, Four sweet romances of marines on leave, Light reading. I'd give this one a,Enjoyable but because of the shortened format of havingindividual stories I didn't feel like I knew how it ended for each of themen.
Four stories pack this book, which means four sexy heroes and four women who can't help but love them.
I really liked this little anthology of men in uniform, a great kick off for the Uniformly Hot series.
I hated to see some of these stories end, Tori Carrington writes the HOTTEST blazes ever! This is a collection ofshort stories about men in uniform.

Take great, shameless pleasure in delving into the lives of others, Revel in living vicariously through our characters, trying on career hats we'd never otherwise put on, stretching muscles we'd probably be better off excercising in reality.
We won't even discuss how our writing allows us to voice opinions on society, romance and human sexuality that aren't subject to public ridicule but rather presented as entertainment.
To go there, well, we'd be revealing a little too much, now, wouldn't weSo we'll stick to just the facts, ma'am or sir, depending on your preference, which may or may not have anything to do with your sex.
Should you desire information, feel free to e mail us and we'll provide you with our phone number, or our preference arrange to meet with you one on one where we can learn as much, or perhaps , about you as you will about us.
Depending on our mood, we may spill everything we'd prefer to keep a secret, like which traits we would change about the other if given half a chance.
Likewise, we may wisecrack our way through the interview, sprinkle our responses with what we find exciting about our latest book, and blissfully skate over personal details that might bare a little too much.
Trust us, this is not an attempt to create an aura of mystery, We're not quite that saavy, No, we're just very protective of our evolving selves and consider ourselves open minded, known to change an opinion the moment we voice it or are presented with further information, so we're hesitant to commit any to writing.
Guess we're very Socrates like as opposed to Socratic in that way, which isn't altogether a bad thing.

After working in the computer industry for a number of years and after Tony and I endeavored to write our first novel I switched to temp work which ultimately led to a four year stint as a secretary/sales clerk in the engineering and international sales departments of Owens Illinois, the international container company that put
the "glass" into The Glass City.
I put the brakes on before I reached the five year mark, however, the point of no return for most dreamers who get caught in the corporate trap vacation time Better benefits Probably I should stay until retirement.
Tony's background couldn't be different from mine, but thankfully it led him to me, Born in Smila, a small hillside village in the area of Ancient Olympia outside Pyrgos, Greece, where his family has deep roots and an older brother still maintains the family olive groves he was raised in Athens during a time of political and cultural upheaval, although neither stopped him from becoming a drummer in a successful pop band that often played with Greek singer Teris Chrysos.
He immigrated to the U, S. in lateand with the help of the Greek community achieved the American Dream, Only the hunger for something , the restless searching that originally compelled him to turn his back on his successful music career and brought him here, remained.
It wasn't until after we'd become a couple, and he turned to me and suggested that we try our hand at writing, that both of us discovered the true meaning of th sitelink.
