Review: Everything I’ve Never Had by Lynetta Halat Signed Giveaway

09/11/2013

Everything I've Never Had Lynetta Halat

Everything I’ve Never Had by Lynetta Halat Review

With all of the books nowadays featuring 17-23 year olds, it is a true pleasure when one comes along that sweeps you away and features an older heroine. The beautifully written Everything I’ve Never Had by Lynetta Halat did just that.

Celeste is 38, a widow, and the mother of three boys. Part of a very powerful and dangerous family, Celeste’s marriage was arranged. She loved her late husband and the father of her kids, but she was never in love.

Since his death from cancer, her husband’s cousin, Adrian, soldier and the black sheep of the family, has been stepping in and helping out. He has become a father figure to the boys, and a best friend to Celeste. They both want more, but there are plenty of obstacles. Adrian and his father have been ostracized from the family, he is 30 – 8 years younger than Celeste, and neither one has shared their “more than family” feelings with each other. The rest of the family will do what ever they have to keep them apart, and they are both scared to go against them.

“I know I’m not supposed to want him. He’s my own slice of forbidden fruit–my deceased husband’s outcast cousin. And with the way our families were connected, that was not something I could ignore”

But when she sees him playing rhythm guitar in his band…her attraction becomes so strong she has to get away. But he follows, and they share an epic kiss that changes everything.

“Oh my…this is…everything. Everything I’ve never felt, everything I’ve never tasted, everything I’ve never had.”~Celeste

“That kiss…that kiss was exceptional, and I’ll never forget it. As I stand here and as long as I live, it was the best I’ve ever had, the best I could ever have.” ~Adrian

They still fight their attraction, and even date other people in front of each other while trying to keep their hands off of each other.

But they just can’t stay away…even when with the other dates.

“I’ve never wanted a woman the way I want you. Never.”
“It’s just because you can’t have me, Adrian. I’m nothing special.”
“Oh, baby, you have no idea.” He runs his nose up my throat, scenting me as he goes…”You’re everything to me.”

When they finally stop fighting each other, HOLY MOLY, it gets H-O-T. My kids play guitar and bass. I have picks all over my house. Let’s just say I’m getting all flushed when I see them now.

Everything Ive never had

So much more happens, and I don’t want to give more away. There is a military aspect to this book that many will appreciate as well, and it was all handled very well. This book had a great ending, though it is different than what you expect, and a perfect epilogue.

Likes:

  • Beautifully written.
  • Older heroine with kids.
  • Forbidden attraction that they fight like crazy.
  • I totally love Adrian. He is such a great guy and amazing with the boys. There is nothing sexier than a man who is great with kids.
  • Guitar picks. Nuff said.
  • The letters, and guitar picks in them.
  • The very real issues our soldiers face.
  • The magnetic pull between the couple was palpable.
  • There was a very long build-up to their relationship before the book began. They were friends first.
  • It felt like a long, meaty story.

Dislikes:

  • I wasn’t all that clear why they didn’t stand up to the family sooner.
  • I would have liked a little more together time.
  • I almost wish something a little more epic happened.

Rating 4.5 stars 3.75 heat (there was good sex and build up, just not much)

stars_4half

Flame_THREEthree copy

Everything I’ve Never Had is a beautiful story with likable, relatable, and down to earth characters. It was a pleasure reading about an older heroine with kids for a change, and they only added to the love story inside. Though I usually don’t like to mention another author in a review, something about this story, (though the characters talk nothing like it) reminded be of a Kristen Ashley book, without the gobs of action. Perhaps it’s the older characters, the manly alpha, and the history between the couple. To me, this is the highest of compliments. Beautifully written and unique, I highly recommend you check this one out!

    Thanks for the review and I am happy to see someone who isn’t between the ages of 18 – 21. I think a lot of readers would prefer characters who are a little older with some life experiences under their belt.

When the author of your all-time favorite series r When the author of your all-time favorite series releases the first book from the male POV, you run to read it and hope it doesn’t ruin it for you. I’m happy to say @jfrostauthor just made me love Cat and Bones more. 

If you are a fan of Cat and Bones, or you just want to start a new series, I 100% recommend The Other Half of the Grave by Jeaniene Frost.

It was SO GREAT going back to Kristen Ashley’s F It was SO GREAT going back to Kristen Ashley’s Fantasyland world again! I tried to read as slow as possible because I just didn’t want to leave. Though the whole Fantasyland series is best read in order, Gossamer in the Darkness easily stands alone. You don’t have to like fantasy or regency to love this, you just have to love romance. I am so happy to have this as a new addition to one of my favorite series, and now I may have to go and listen to the entire series again.

“Sometimes, things need to break to be put toget “Sometimes, things need to break to be put together right.”

@catherinecowlesauthor has a way of blending steamy romance, angst, suspense, family, found family, friendship, kids, and a whodunnit into something completely unique and special. Falling Embers may be my favorite yet.

I had no idea how much better it would be! The new I had no idea how much better it would be! The new Kindle Paperwhite is currently on sale for 25% off. If you have a trade-in you get another 20% off plus the value of the trade-in. The new Kindle Paperwhite ended up costing me $59. And it is SO WORTH IT. The screen is WAY bigger, it’s super fast, and the new light really still keeps the pages looking like e-ink with the adjustable warmth.

The Ravenhood Trilogy by Kate Stewart has a HUGE n The Ravenhood Trilogy by Kate Stewart has a HUGE number of people who are OBSESSED with it. I love Kate Stewart and needed to see what all the hype was about despite it being a long commitment (40+ Hours). In the end, it just wasn’t for me. It was too toxic and I never fell in love with and rooted for the MCs. Maybe I’m just too old? I wanted so much to love this! As much as I hate to sometimes, I review every book I read or listen to.

The Other Half of the Grave by @jfrostauthor was e The Other Half of the Grave by @jfrostauthor was everything I could have dreamed of. I was nervous, because I’ve read a few other books that totally changed my opinion of the hero after reading their pov (and not in a good way). I was glad I went into this without a recent re-read of Halfway to the Grave (until after) because I wasn’t comparing the two, and The Other Half of the Grave felt fresh and new. 

I loved reading this almost as much as I loved reading the first book so many years ago, and that’s saying a lot, because I have read thousands of books since, and it still remains a favorite. If you are a fan of Cat and Bones, or you just want to start a new series, I 100% recommend The Other Half of the Grave by Jeaniene Frost.

“What do you need, sugar?” I’ve been Summer “What do you need, sugar?”

I’ve been Summersweetened. Once again, @authortarasivec made me cry and snort-laugh at the same time, but this time it’s with a couple who are my own age! It was so refreshing to read about a couple in their fifties who are still totally sexy and cool. With This Fling is a new favorite!
