Throttle Me ~Review

Throttle Me by Chelle Bliss Blog Tour Stop

 

Men of Inked Series Book #1

SYNOPSIS:
Suzy’s a control freak and has her life mapped out - work hard, find a man with a stable job, and live happily ever after. She’s content with the status quo, but her plan comes to a screeching halt when he enters her life and turns it upside down. City gave up on love when his heart was crushed in college, preferring to be the typical bachelor. He spends his nights hopping from one bed to another and his days working at his family tattoo shop, Inked. A chance encounter on a dark road makes him question what he had sworn off forever – a relationship. A night of passion and lust causes them to question everything. Is City the knight in shining armor to the damsel in distress? Can their relationship survive when a fantasy falls apart and a secret comes out that changes everything?
Characters: 4   Plot: 4.5   Overall: 4.5
The start of Throttle Me I struggled with. The first couple chapters didn't suck me right in, and I found the story was a little drawn out.
But after those first couple chapters things go into full on throttle mode.
I loved this book. It was a read that was on the faster side. But I enjoyed the story. The characters were great.
The main two were Suzy and City. After meeting when her car broke down on the side of the road it was all hot and steamy from there on. They had a few drinks that first night and ended up going home together. After a hot sexed night I think they were both hooked on each other.
City was the perfect alpha male. I found his character to be written great. He wasn't over the top and seemed like someone you could imagine in real life.
Same goes for Suzy. Although she was a little crazy to hook up with the man so soon it all worked out in the end.
Her friend and his family all fit into the storyline nicely. But I still liked that the story stayed focused on Suzy and City without the pull into other drama.
I can't wait for book two in this series to come out. I will be sure to read it.

Excerpt:
“Do you swear?” I asked as she set the glass back on the bar.
“What?” She gaped at me.
“Do you swear? Simple question. You’ve said ‘heck’ and ‘friggin’’ so far, but nothing dirty.”
“Oh, um, yeah, I swear.” Her cheeks turned pink and a small smile spread across her face. “I’m just used to watching my words with the kids around all day.”
“Prove it,” I said as I stared in her blue sapphire eyes.
“What? Why?”
“Cause I need to know if it’s in you. Are you all good girl or is there more under there dying to come out?” I hid the smile and laughter that was so close to breaking free from my lips. The pink of her cheeks spread across her face. I know I embarrassed her, but fuck, I needed to know if I stood a chance.
“Yes, I swear. What do you think I am? I’m not a child, City.” She glared at me as she raised the drink to her lips and wrapped them around the rim. Fuck I wanted those lips wrapped around my shaft, taking me deep and sucking me off.
“Never said you were, babe. Do you drink besides tonight?” I asked, now smiling because I knew she was upset. I liked the fire I saw in her eyes when I pointed out her good girl qualities – she obviously didn’t like being labeled.
“Sometimes. I’m just responsible. I don’t drink and drive. My dad used to be a cop and it was drilled into my head at an early age.” The words she spoke hit me like a ton of bricks. Drunk driving was the one thing in the world that caused my blood to boil.
Good girl teacher with a cop father? Just my luck. “Nothin’ wrong with that. Virgin daiquiris aren’t always your thing, then?”
“Why? Do I have to be a drinker? I mean does it make me less of an adult?”
“No, Suzy. Just trying to get a feel for who you are – what you are.”
