Wait for It

M. O'Keefe — 2017

In a blistering novel of raw emotion and desire, a tormented woman teaches an alpha male that money can’t fix everything . . . but love can. Tiffany: After fighting for a new life, I don’t want to play the victim anymore. However, with three kids to raise, I’m getting desperate enough to make a deal with the devil. My estranged brother-in-law, Blake, says he just wants to help, but he’s been trouble since I met him. I don’t know if I can believe this kinder, gentler Blake, and there’s a friction between us that has turned into the sweetest chemistry. He could be my salvation . . . or my downfall. Blake: I haven’t always had Tiffany’s best interests at heart but I’m ready to make up for my sins. Besides, I can’t help admiring her: The girl’s a genuine survivor, tough and lean, with eyes of steel. But the more I get to know Tiffany, the more I want her. Every inch of her. Which means I’m about to make a bad situation a hell of a lot worse. Look for the sultry, provocative novels of M. O’Keefe: EVERYTHING I LEFT UNSAID | THE TRUTH ABOUT HIM | BURN DOWN THE NIGHT Praise for Wait for It “O’Keefe delivers another read that rips our hearts to shreds with a hero and heroine that we thought were beyond redemption and shows us that everyone is worthy of a second chance. I highly recommend Wait for It, for a gritty, dark, and sensual read that opens your heart for forgiveness, sears your imagination, and leaves your libido humming.”—Rochelle’s Reviews “Intense, sexy, and emotionally satisfying with a surprisingly sweet touch to the ending, this romance is already on my re-read list.”—Straight Shootin’ Book Reviews “So powerful and heartwarming that you can’t help getting caught up in its spell.”—Collectors of Book Boyfriends & Girlfriends “A heartfelt enemies-to-lovers story and a great addition to this superb series.”—My YA & NA Book Obsession “This was a gut-wrenching story on every level as both Tiffany and Blake were well-defined, layered characters who struggled to find a way to relate to each other. Talk about walls, these two had mountains to scale. It’s honest despite their fears and the way they persevere is admirable, not to mention off-the-charts steamy.”—The Book Nympho “Wait for It is a heartbreaking story line of one woman’s struggle against domestic abuse, and one man’s battle to control his life. The premise is challenging; the romance is controversial; the characters are colorful and passionate.”—The Reading Cafe “O’Keefe is a master at exploring the obstacles put in our way and those we plant there ourselves in the attempt to protect our fragile hearts.”—The Jeep Diva “Gripping, rough, and emotional, but oh-so worth it . . .

Oh. My. Good. Gravy. I don’t even know where I should begin with this review because this book was that good. Blake was a jerk (to be Amazon PC). A huge jerk that I wanted to kick between the legs when he was introduced in the first chapter. He had to have some big ones to try to pay off his brother’s wife to disappear with her 3 kids. Huge gigantic ones. But when more of his back story is revealed and I got to know him, I kinda felt bad for him. It must have sucked to live the way he did….thinking that money could solve everything. I really liked Tiffany and felt a huge connection with her. She was the only one in the book, well besides Blake’s mother, who stood up to Blake. I absolutely loved it when she talked him up to $20G when he tried to pay her to disappear. She was a mother who was trying her best to let her children have normal lives, even though their father was an abusive jerk who terrorized them. I wanted to cry when she said that she felt broken during the masturbation scene. It just showed how fragile she was and how low of a self-esteem she had. I mean, she was married to a man who enjoyed belittling her. That takes a toll on your self-esteem. I don’t care who you are, it does. Tiffany’s parents were awful. Who turns their back on their daughter when they see that she is in an abusive relationship? At least Bea was there for her but still. A pretty crappy thing to do to your daughter. The chemistry between Tiffany and Blake was out of this world and that first sex scene, it was out of the world. I got kinda mad when Blake offered Tiffany $500 for one night. How degrading. But what surprised me was that she took it up. WTH???? The end of the book was pretty good and I am glad to see that Phil got what he deserved. How many stars will I give Wait For It: 4 Why: This was a fast paced romance with enough hot sex to ignite the pages. The underlying theme, domestic violence, was discussed in a way that is realistic. I got really attached to Blake and Tiffany and I can’t wait to see if there will be a book 5 in this series. Will I reread: Yes Will I recommend to family and friends: Yes Age range: Adult Why: Sex, violence and language. **I received a free copy of this book and volunteered to review it**
