I had high hopes and expectations for this book, and I was sorely disappointed. If I'm honest, I'm being generous with a 3 star rating. Every three pages, we had to read "oh, but she's leaving." I guess I'd have preferred a little less beating of a dead horse and a little more showing in the writing. He was big and bad and alpha.įinally, the ongoing conflict in this book was beaten into our heads. What I didn't enjoy reading about was how we had to be told over and over that Dell was an "alpha male." This is something else I've noticed in Jill's writing - she doesn't show us through his actions/words that the heroes are, indeed, alpha males. I did like the characters-not as much as I liked Lilah and (swoon) Brady, but I enjoyed reading about them. Unfortunately, it wasn't used that way, and the plot quickly took the path of too many of her other books. I actually thought that we'd get something different with this one because of Jade's background and The Big Bad that plagues her for most of the book. Regrets/indecision about said sexual encounter. Animal Magnetism by Jill Shalvis: 9780425268360 : Books FIRST IN THE ANIMAL MAGNETISM SERIES Sunshine, Idaho, is a small and sunny townthe perfect home for man and beast. Second, I'm sure it comes with reading a plethora of books by the same author, but Jill definitely has a formula to her books, and the plots are becoming redundant and a little boring. Extra words, incorrect use of than/then, punctuation problems.you name it, this book had it. I felt like I got an early draft version rather than the final book. Animal Magnetism was my absolute favorite book by her, so you can imagine my excitement for the second in this series.įirst, let's talk about the errors this book was riddled with. :( After reading Jill's Lucky Harbor series, I was quickly hooked on her style of writing. This series may just be her best work.I was so, so disappointed by this book.
“Shalvis reunites readers with Sunshine, Idaho, and all the folks (and critters) at the veterinary clinic, with her light touch and sense of affectionate humor operating on all cylinders. And though Dell has never had time for love, Jade's strength and sass is the kind of call no red-blooded male can resist. or enjoying the gorgeous views of her ruggedly sexy boss to help her forget her past.īut Dell's seductive, alluring ways have sparked an uncontrollable desire, one Jade hadn't expected to feel again.
There's nothing like working with animals, having a forlorn, grumpy stray kitten make its home under her desk. Jade Bennett couldn't be happier to escape her well-meaning but smothering family and their expectations, not to mention the big-city jungle. And veterinarian Dell Connelly suspects there's a reason his clinic's uberefficient receptionist has taken shelter here. Sunshine, Idaho, is a quiet ranching town that provides a perfect refuge for injured animals.
