BLOG TOUR REVIEW: Games of Fire by Airicka Phoenix


"His lips curled into a dark grin, "Oh I'm not going anywhere, baby!" he practically purred before his mouth crashed down on hers."
So While reading "Games of Fire" I was talking to Airicka and I was curious as to who she pictured as Spencer, and well this is the pic she game me although he doesn't have ALL of Spencer's tats Alex Pettyfer is who she pictures as Spencer, (couldn't have chose better myself!) 


   First off let me be clear I love Airicka and all her writings, but so far this is her best work in my opinion. In each book she publishes you see her writing grow more and more, it's like watching your child grow into an adult. Now onto the review itself, which had a lot of notes and things highlighted on my kindle for it lol. I first fell in love with Sophie while her and her mom were talking, "We should go over," her mother said decidedly. "I have a casserole in the freezer we can take. It'll be nice." What her mother really meant was let's make sure our new neighbors aren't serial killers or worse, salesmen." Fell in love with Spencer right off, with just a description of him, "A silver chain with dog tags on the end dangled down the center of his chest, drawing attention to washboard abs and the carved V disappearing into the wasteband of his unfastened jeans." And first interaction between Sophie and Spencer is honestly nothing normal which I loved, "Kidder is not the word I would use," Sophie bit out, matching Spencer's gaze unflinchingly. "Jackass comes to mind. Asshat. Pr-" Then there was this part of the interaction that made me giddy: 
                                ...all her attention melted down to where he was touching her. His fingers. His thighs. His heat. His eyes.
                                  Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!
                                "I can show you more if you like what you see," he said in a whisper just for her ears.
Also Sophie loves her man and has a temper, "No, no! You don't get to speak. You're going to listen. This." She gestured up and down to all of him." Does nothing for me. You do nothing for me. In fact, you ever think about hitting on me again, I'll dropkick you back to Aimee. Yeah, remember her? Your girlfriend? So if you're smart you're going to get your creep self out of my face...I'm Spencer's I pick Spencer. I will always pick Spencer..." I really thought the book ended to soon, like it ended abruptly, I want more of Spencer!

  2. Love all your quotes but this is my favorite "No, no! You don't get to speak. You're going to listen. This." She gestured up and down to all of him." Does nothing for me. You do nothing for me. In fact, you ever think about hitting on me again, I'll dropkick you back to Aimee. Yeah, remember her? Your girlfriend? So if you're smart you're going to get your creep self out of my face...I'm Spencer's I pick Spencer. I will always pick Spencer..." I swear I want to jump up and down I was so excite she told him off like that.Great review! And I love Isaiah and Fallon but yes our girl Airicka's writing is getting better with every book.
