"4.5 out of 5 stars! This is a sweetly erotic love story about fighting personal demons and grief while opening up your heart to something more/someone else."

I suspect that I'll be in minority here when I say that this particular book didn't work for me.



Jen Frederick has my full support and admiration for her Undeclared and Unspoken, but Gray was too callous and judgemental for my liking, a very difficult romantic hero to like.



He was explosive, simplistic and at times shallow and impulsively stupid, and while I don't doubt his integrity as a character, I did not enjoy his relationship with Sam who was inexperienced, gentle and loving, and who didn't deserve his yo-yo attitude. The guy had shit to work through and he definitely wasn't ready for commitment in the small amount of time he knew Sam.

However, having said all that, the ending (particularly, the unfortunate afghan) was very cute and lovely, and redeemed this book a little bit in my eyes. The period of separation did a world of good to both characters. Recommended but with reservations. Not my favourite in the series, which is excellent otherwise. ( )

Review to come! ( )

Oh sweet baby goldfish, this book was HAWT! I am a super fan of all things Jen Frederick (seriously sometimes I think I border on stalkerish) The Woodlands Men as I refer to them are ones that I love to visit over and over again! But who wouldn’t right? Well, let me tell you that Unraveled didn’t disappoint, nope I can’t think of one place that it did! HAWT, Adventurous and Sweet all wrapped up into one ball of yarn (ha ha ha) Unraveled begins with Gray Phillips having to make some serious life decisions. He’s pretty secure in the life that he has made for himself. Being a Marine for a few years, but now he has to decide if it’s a career for him or its time to part ways with the Corps. After getting some extended leave he heads off to visit with Noah & Bo (oh how happy I was to see them too). Trying to make a decision on what to do they decided to make the best of the time they have. After one night at a bar, Gray meets Sam, Samantha as you know is a widow that has taken to just getting through each day. For her she sees just surviving as living. That all changes the minute she finds herself in Gray’s arms in a dark hallway. Which is completely blown apart with a little misunderstandings. It’s so completely out of character for her she isn’t for sure how to move forward or which way to go. With a little help from Eve, Sam invites Gray over for “coffee”. Its then that he is hit smack in the face with the ghost of Will. I love that we get to see the reawakening of a young widow learning how to live life again, I have to say not only live life but love it! Every part of it. We are always so happy to get our HEA but in this story I think it’s more about seeing her live, I feel like no matter the outcome between Gray and Samantha that Samantha is now living…

This is a 5-Star book, there is no doubt about it for me. I love the entire Woodlands Series. And this is a fantastic edition to that series.
