Book Review + Giveaway: Vision of Love by S. Moose



 ~*Synopsis*~
You can say I had it all. The fancy house, top of the line car, lots of friends and more money than anyone could ever imagine. On the outside, we were the perfect family. No one knew about my abusive father and my mother who drank herself into oblivion every night. My name is Karly and I have scars, deep scars that no one knows about, and when my parents died I was left alone and on my own, to fight through life with no help.

When it came to life and happiness, I had it all until my world was turned upside down. My name is Nicholas and my wife, the love of my life, left me and our new baby girl without as much as an explanation. I didn’t want to accept it, but after our divorce was final and four long years passed, I started to lose hope that she’d ever come back. Emma was growing so fast and I needed help. My sister recommended that I hire her friend, Karly, as Emma’s nanny. I took a chance on bringing another woman into my little girl’s life. Did I do the right thing? 

As many days and nights are spent together, feelings can no longer be denied and a relationship is formed.

Life is about taking chances and learning how to fall, but when the past comes back, will they be strong enough to fight through and trust each other? Or will all they worked for fall apart?

 ~*Excerpt*~
“It’s a six pack with a V. You know the thing that girls go crazy over. Can you think clearly?” I walk slowly towards her again, making sure I’m not overstepping any boundaries when clearly I am. This whole staying away from her isn’t working.

His tongue glides along my bottom lip and I swear I think my knees are about to give out. I slowly open my mouth, inviting him in. Our tongues meet and wow he can kiss. The slow sexy dance with our tongues is turning me on full force. The ache between my thighs increases and my heart is beating so fast. He’s leaving me breathless.

"Don't underestimate me sweetheart. I'm sure I can make you nervous," he pauses bringing his lips closer to my ear. "I know I turn you on just by the sound of my voice." The ache between my thighs is back with a vengeance as he touches my hand and pulls me closer. "I'm a very protective man and I'm used to getting what I want," he whispers as his hot breath travels down my neck. "And I want you, Karly."

“I’m not perfect either. We’re gonna learn more about each other as the days turn into nights.” I hold his face in my hands, “I’m not perfect and neither are you, but we’ll be perfect for each other. I’ll wait until you’re ready Nicholas.” 

The depths of his soul are in his eyes, and each time we look at one another, a piece of his soul belongs to me. I’m not sure how we can still be friends. The electric charge between us is undeniable. His kisses make me weak. His eyes make me melt. That smile, wow, his smile, makes the world stop and everything seem clearer.

“I’ll always be here to repeat our song. I’m not going anywhere.” I kiss her lips and bring her in my arms.

He brings his hand to my face, cradling it. I love how his touch makes me feel. “Because you matter to me.” 

“Life’s hard, baby. But I need you to listen to me when I tell you over and over again how much I love you and how much you mean to me.” Kissing her beautiful head and breathing her in, “Baby we both have baggage, but that shouldn’t get in the way of our happiness. When I look at you I see my forever. You’re it for me.” She sniffles holding me tighter, “and every day we’re together I’m gonna keep reminding you how amazing you are.”

I rate Vision of Love with FOUR LEAVES. 
This was a quick read that I really enjoyed. It's a story about a girl who has had a rough childhood finally finding her happiness. It's also about a guy who has had a rough go with relationships and is hoping that he can eventually move on with his life and be happy. Karly has just moved to a new town to live with an old friend. She is trying to find her way. Nicholas is a hard worker who is raising his daughter alone because his wife walked out. The characters are easy to become attached to so I was rooting for them to find their way from the beginning.

 I really like the fact that this book had multiple POVs.  It's a wonderful way to get each side of the story. I also enjoyed getting to know the supporting characters. I feel like they all have a strong story and I look forward to learning more about them some more. Vision of Love ended on a cliffhanger. This a good and a bad thing. The good thing is that I'm DYING to find out what happens. I'm so excited to read Vision of Destiny when it releases in August. The bad thing is that I have to wait two months to find out what happens to characters that I have learned very quickly to love. I recommend Vision of Love to all the FALLowers who would like a quick read and are ready for an emotional but fun story!
