Recensioni
This novella is the perfect blend of sass, sweetness, friendship, history and sexiness. The characters are easy to relate to and connect with. Ms. Robert does an excellent job of creating an addictive story full of emotion. A well written, very quick read. I highly recommend this one!ARC received from Entangled Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
Rating: 5A short and sweet novella about knowing what you want in life and going after it. Warren Davis has come home for the holidays after recovering from an injury that forced him to re-evaluate his life. Erin Robinson is back home because... well she has no place left to go. A failed career and being evicted from her apartment has also forced her to re-evaluate her life. The only difference between Warren and Erin is that she is clueless and lost. Whereas Warren knows exactly what he wants and needs in his life... Her.

Erin is home, she's telling everyone she's just in between shows, but it's looking a bit more permanent than that. She's lost, feeling like a failure, and now she's been stood up for a date. Warren doesn't recognize this side of Erin, he's a marine home for the holidays, after noticing she's been sitting alone for thirty minutes he has to tease her. After seeing the lack of light in her eyes, Warren knows he has to do something and starting up their old game of truth or dare sounds just right. It might just be the right time to mention his feelings for her have changed in the past year, especially after a scare in the military.
I received this novella about a month ago, in that time I forgot the entire synopsis and that ended up working in my favor. I was pleasantly surprised by this book and absolutely enjoyed the banter between the two main characters. Novellas are notoriously quick reads, we all know that, and there is a fine line between giving too much or too little, Katee Robert gave just enough. Mixed in with the main character's banter is history of their past and descriptions of both Erin and Warren, something I find a lot of novellas lack. I felt like I knew my characters features, personalities, and habits, all while reading their present interactions. I think it's an art to progress a story forward without pausing to give those details. I really liked Warren, I mean really liked him. At one point I might have said out loud, "Girl, if you don't want him I will trade you spots." Reading from his POV made me like him even more, because he wasn't just a man in uniform and old lover, he was charismatic, confident, and had a hidden side of emotions that the reader gets to glimpse before our other main character did. Erin, our female MC, is totally jaded and a bit lost, but Warren brings out this side of her that she put away. She rushes into every situation, but that's what makes this book all the more interesting. Her temper was hilarious and I really liked how she had to re-evaluate how she approaches situation in order to get her happiness.
The book takes place over two days, 95% of it in just one night, however it just works. This one is a lot sexy, but also a lot funny. Katee Robert managed to cover so much in those two nights, the character growth is pretty tremendous, and the relationship transition is just right. I especially appreciated that it wasn't random thing between the MCs, these two had so much history and that really made the situation believable. It also is book 3.5 in the Out of Uniform series, so if you've read the others (which you should), it's some final closure for characters and the small town we've come to know. While this book is short, it packs a lot of punch. Plus, if you're looking for your next steamy read, this totally covers that category. The chemistry between Warren and Erin is totally hot. Katee Robert is a great writer and I definitely suggest any of her series.

His to Take by Katee RobertBook #3.5 Out of Uniform SeriesSource: Netgalley/PublisherMy Rating: 3½/5 starsMy Review: There’s nothing worse than coming home with your tail tucked between your legs. Oh, wait, there is something worse. Coming home with your tail tucked between your legs, being stood up by your date, and then running into your on-again, off-again hook up. Erin Robinson was hoping beyond all hope and reason to hide away in her parent’s home until she can figure out what to do with her life. Unfortunately, Erin is from a small town and everyone’s business always seems to be everyone else’s business which is how she has found herself stood up and face to face with the one man she really, really didn’t want to see, Warren Davis. Warren Davis is a walking dream and nightmare all rolled into one. He can make Erin orgasm harder and more often than any man ever has but he also knows just which buttons to push to send her into a fit of indignant anger.Warren Davis is tired of playing the hook up game with Erin Robinson so the night he runs into her at the bar, he proposes a whole new game, Truth or Dare. Playing on their past and Erin’s inability to refuse a game of Truth or Dare, Warren fully intends to make Erin his for realisies. The game gets off (HA! That’ll be funny when you read the book!) to a great if chilly start and eventually ends up exactly where Warren wants to end up, with Erin agreeing to be his girlfriend. As the two drift off into a blissful sex coma, Warren thinks everything is good to go until he wakes up the next morning to a very familiar scene, Erin running away. The Bottom Line: Though I enjoyed this read, especially the barn scene, it just didn’t live up to the standards of the rest of the Out of Uniform series. Erin and Warren are so cute together and with their shared history and the delightful game of Truth or Dare, it just feels like a novella-length read just isn’t enough for them. I would have very much enjoyed a much longer version of their story. With that being said, I still enjoyed this read and look forward to the continuation of Katee Robert’s sexy Out of Uniform series.
