Synopsis:
Refuse to compromise.
Hudson Winters is in control of every aspect of his world. From his earliest
memories, he's been driven to succeed. Starting from nothing, he built an
empire based on opportunity and intimidation.
Personally, professionally, and sexually - he ensures the reins are always
in his hands.
He never counted on a woman like Gabriella Hernandez.
From the moment she steps into his building, she proceeds to shake up his
entire existence. Her very presence causes him to question everything about
himself, his relationships, and his future.
This story features characters readers fell in love with in "The Barter
System" and gives you a chance to sit down and catch up. Prepare to be
twisted up and knocked around a bit. Another hot, emotional read from
Always the Good Girl, Shayne McClendon.
NOTE: This story contains explicit sexual scenes and language and is
intended for mature audiences only. Do not read this novel if intense sexual
situations offend you.
REVIEW:
Hudson by Shayne McClendonMy rating: 4.5 of 5 stars
This is a book that I read straight through to the end, and after I finished I couldn't fall asleep because I couldn't stop thinking about the characters and what had happened and could happen in the future. It was stuck in my brain. I won't rehash the plot here, because one of the things I loved about this book was that despite me thinking I knew where things were going, I was proven wrong more than once. This author proved she was the boss of me, and I liked it.
It was fantastic getting to spend a little time with Riya, Tawny, and the M's (from The Barter System). I loved them all quite dearly and seeing how they fit into this story was fantastic. Hudson is a complex character and it was really rewarding to see his character go through a transformation. Gabriella was a completely endearing and interesting character to follow through this book. She was giving, and sweet, but not a pushover. She was definitely not afraid of telling people the straight-up truth, and also wasn't afraid of putting herself out there even when she was likely to get hurt. I am a little bit desperate to see where her story goes from here. It was one of the things I couldn't stop thinking about when this book ended. The sexy stuff in this book is phenomenally sexy, and this author has proven herself to be one that I will be keeping an eye out for in the future. In the meantime, I'll be devouring everything she has written to this point.
