Review: Mystery Man by Kristen Ashley

3.5 Feathers
Mystery Man
by Kristen Ashley
(Dream Man # 1)

Another Kristen Ashley book, another macho alpha man. Not that I am complaining, if I found one of these men myself you would have to pry me off with a crowbar and some heavy duty tools. Which is why I kind of hate Gwendolyn Kidd, she has not one, not two, but THREE sexy alpha males panting (in a very manly way of course) after her. How is that fair? Of course I am not jealous all the time, especially as her POS sister has managed to drag Gwen in to her trouble leading her to be fire bombed, shot at and kidnapped.

Although this is the first book in the Dream Man series I actually have read this third, so I had heard alot about Hawk, the sexy alpha hero, in the other two books Wild Man and Law Man. Hawk, did not let me down, he was definietly bad ass, and although he isn't a favourite KA hero I think he may be one of the most arrogant and I enjoyed every second reading about him.

At this point, I have the KA formula down, so I know what to expect, but that doesn't stop me from loving every second of the books. They are unashamedly over the top, the men although complete control freaks are also completely perfect and I am completely in love with everything she writes. So although these books to have their faults, they are long winded and sometimes I find her turn of phrase a little odd, I still like to rate these highly on pure enjoyment factor.

So why the 3.5 stars? Mainly because although I liked this one alot, I have liked some of her other books a little but more.
