My Review:
A view months ago I read ‘The Hurricane’, the first book in the contemporary romance series by R.J. Prescott. I seriously loved that book, so when I heard about the second book ‘The Aftermath’ coming out I couldn’t wait to get my hands on a copy. So when I heard I had a spot in the blog tour, I was super excited and couldn’t wait to start reading.
Where ‘The Hurricane’ was written through Emily’s point of view, ‘The Aftermath’ is written through Cormac’s point of view. This was absolutely amazing. I loved reading this book through Cormac’s eyes. ‘The Aftermath’ goes on right where ‘The Hurricane’ ended. Emily and Cormac are married and living in Emily’s little flat. Cormac is training for the fight that will make his carrier. And Emily is in her final year of college. All Cormac and Emily want is to be together. But when the trail against Emily’s abusive stepfather begins, Cormac is supposed to be training for the big fight. And he can’t be there for Emily, and train at the same time. Now they have to find a way to make things work.
In the beginning of this book I had a little trouble getting back into Cormac’s way of talking to people. He was acting very possessive of Emily, and although I know through reading the first book why that was.. I kind of needed some time to get used to it again. Fortunately it didn’t take me very long, and before I knew it I was yet again completely pulled into the life of Emily and Cormac.
I loved reading about how Emily and Cormac lived their life. It was so much fun to read about their love for each other. And it definitely was hot at moments.
Al though I’m really not into boxing, I really enjoyed reading about Cormac’s training and his boxing games. The way R.J. Prescott wrote about these games, really made me all nervous while reading.. I was really rooting for Cormac. Never thought I’d say that about boxing. LOL.
‘The Aftermath’ was yet again a very fun, exciting and addicting book to read. I love reading about Emily and Cormac’s ‘family’ and really love all these characters. I can’t wait to read more books about the other boxers.. There just have to be more books about the other characters! 😀
