About the book:
"Alpha heroes you'll want to kidnap and keep, heroines to root for, and sizzling love scenes
with emotional punch." Carly Phillips, NY Times Bestselling Author
Greg Cage was born to protect. While growing up, he was his mother and sister’s shield
against the world… until he failed. For the last decade, he has carried that guilt and need for
vengeance around… until it was stripped from him. Now, with his best friend getting married
and no longer needing his protection, he is even more lost, completely adrift, and desperate
for some control. All he has ever known was how to protect: his family, his friends, and his
country. Can he go against everything he has ever known, and give up that control?
Melissa Larson will never let anyone hold the reins in her life. She has been the rock in her
family for more years than she can remember, and the fight to keep them together is her
main priority right now. She has always been fiercely independent and proud. The last thing
she will ever do is ask for someone else’s help. But when that choice is out of her control,
forcing her to rely on others to save her and her family, and pick up the pieces that are left,
will she be able to let someone else be her strength?
The second Greg locks eyes with Meli, he knows that she is someone he needs. Someone he
craves. Meli knew the second she met Greg that he would be nothing but trouble and
heartache. Her life takes an unexpected turn, and that bitch Fate is back to wreak more
havoc on another member of the Corps family.
All hell breaks loose, leaving Greg no choice but to call in a favor. He hooks back up with his
old friend Braxxon Breaker from the Breakneck MC. Together, they make sure that nothing
threatens anyone Greg loves again.
CAGE is a complete story with a HEA.
My Thoughts:
I loved the first book of this series, Axel, and really loved Greg Cage in that book. He's your typical protective alpha male who loves and takes care of the women in his life. So, I was excited to read the next installment in the series because it was about Cage!
Cage is haunted by some issues in his past where he failed to protect someone he loves, and it's because of those issues that he is so overprotective now. Melissa, who's had her fair share of tragedy, has a lot going on and isn't willing to be controlled by any man, especially after seeing what men have done to her mom and sister.
There's no denying their attraction to each other and how great they are for each other. But their similar pasts and secrets will threaten to tear apart the relationship they have started to build.
Full of drama, angst, crazy ex's, alphas males, and sexiness - this is a great read. I wasn't in love with it as I was the first book, but I will still keep reading this series!

Author Info:
Harper lives in small town Georgia just a short drive from her hometown of
Peachtree City. She (and her 3 daughters) enjoy ruling the house they
dubbed 'Estrogen Ocean', much to her husband’s chagrin. Harper has a
borderline unhealthy obsession with books; you can almost ALWAYS find her
with her ereader attached. As an ex-reviewer and blogger, Harper's passion
for reading runs deep. It wasn't until 'Axel' decided to take up residence that
she realized her true calling.
She started using writing as a way to unwind when the house went to sleep
at night; and with a house full of crazy it was the perfect way to just relax. It
didn't take long before a head full of very demanding alphas would stop at
nothing to have their story told.

I am unsure about this books, because I saw so many 5 stars reviews on GR, but on the other hand few of my friends who have similar taste to mine didn't like it at all.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I will try to read first book to see what was all hype about - I can always DNF it if I don't like it, right?:)
Great review, Brandie.
