My Review:
Something Amazing by M. ClarkeMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Something Amazing by M. Clarke is a spin-off book to her Something Great series.
Having never read the other books in the Something Great series I found that I was able to read and enjoy this book with no trouble. I did, however, find that I really wanted to read more about all the characters involved. Just be aware that you will get spoilers in this book to the HEA's in the other books.
Rachel is on vacation in Kauai with her best friend and roommate, Stacey. After landing eyes on a hottie at the pool and letting Stacey go in for the kill, which ended up a total fail, they go to dinner at restaurant recommended by Rachel's future brother-in-law.
At the restaurant, the surf-god from the pool shows up while Stacey is now flirting with Hendrix, the owner of the establishment. Rachel is not sure how to react so stand-offish and un-interested is what she goes for. Unfortunately, the surf-god, AKA Jax, is ready to overlook her attitude and chase after the person she really is.
What happens on Kauai is magical, but Rachel has issues and Jax has secrets. How they play out is an intense, romantic journey that will leave you eager to read more from this author.
Excerpt:
“It’s raining,” Stacey said out loud all of sudden.
Rain splashed on us, only it wasn’t rain.
“Did you see me, Hendrix?” a deep, manly voice asked, causing all sorts of tingles in me just from the sound of his voice.
“Ugh.” Hendrix wiped his face and gave each of us a towel. “Must you flip your hair and shake like a dog? No, I didn’t see you.” He sounded annoyed, then softened his tone when he turned to us. “I was too busy staring at these two beautiful ladies in front of me. One that is off limits and the other one that needs a lot of hands on.”
Stacey blushed and giggled like a schoolgirl. Since my back was to this stranger, my face didn’t get as wet as theirs, but when I peered up after I wiped myself off … holy shit! It was the guy from the swimming pool.
Our eyes locked for the first time, but neither of us looked away. In fact, his dark chocolate eyes grew, and small dimples appeared on both of his cheeks when his lips curled wider. His stare was so strong and intense that he might as well have fucked me with it. All sorts of butterflies fluttered in my stomach and spread to every nerve in my body, sending electrifying tingles everywhere. And seeing stubble along his strong jawline produced another shudder within me.
“Hi there.” His grin got wider and hotter. “Sorry about that.” He sounded sincere. When he leaned closer to my ear, my heart drummed faster, and I lost my breath. Heat infused through me, and I was trying really hard to compose myself. Before I could move away, he whispered slowly and sensually, “Did I make you wet? I can fix that for you.” His words came out hot and playful, intended only for me to hear, each word accentuated with warm puffs in my ear.
