Indiscretion

I’m at war with myself and with my rating. Argh! This was not a bad story per se but it’s just so stereotyped. The problem here was me because it’s one of those stories I can’t read anymore. If I’d have known this before, I wouldn’t have picked it up and ordered the second one before I even started the first one.

I have no freaking idea what to think of this book because I was so intrigued by the prologue and very excited to read this story since I loved all the author’s previous releases. Sadly, after I found out in the first few chapters that this was one of those billionaire/stalker, cat and mouse game kind of romances where she acts coy and he’s the predator, I just lost my interest and contemplated giving up. But, I’m a stubborn reader and don’t like to dnf a book so easily, which meant that I gave the book another try.

I cringed way too much for my liking during this read, with all the lucky coincidences and fairytale feeling of Cinderella being swept off her feet by the rich guy who’s so charmed by her that he forgets anything and everyone else. *dramatic eye roll* It was all just too much of a cliché.

Cole was an egoistic stalker with no boundaries who didn’t accept no from anyone, and he also invaded Katherine’s personal space every time when they ‘randomly’ met. She was always turned on although she didn’t want to be and never had the guts to tell him off even though she lamely tried to get away from him all the time. Woman!! I was so frustrated that she couldn’t make up her mind!!

There was only physical attraction and I never felt that they developed any feelings for each other. But I noticed changes in him, though I wasn’t fond of that character change especially since I didn’t see any reasons for it. They didn’t know each other, only physically, so why was he so different with her?! What’s so special about her that he did not act that way with other woman?!

Color me surprised that I found some things very entertaining despite my reservations toward this story. I’ve read so many similar stories like this already that I was a bit bored but some events (like the case she was working on) made it more interesting, which made it easier for me to finish this book.

I really need to mention that this book was very well written and it saddens me that I couldn’t give it a better rating. It was an overall okay read for me but I’m sure that you’ll love it if you’re into those types of books. It just wasn’t for me and I was disappointed that it wasn’t as emotional and unique with a lot of depth as the other books I’ve read from this author.

I need the next chapters! Katherine Wolf is a woman with many layers…Her story was raw numbing and painful. Indiscretion was written beautifully and sensitive. I have engaged with the story and read the whole book in one sitting. Katherine and Cole were right for each other.

Katherine is a strong woman.. a survivor.. I cant imagine the horror and feelings when it happened .. to pick up the pieces and moving forward. For Katherine today.. she is stronger because she wasnt a victim anymore..
Cole Rhodes is a man with everything and Katherine was all he want.
I had admired Cole’s efforts to woo Katherine.. Its sexy.. fast pacing.. flirty..romantic… can every women have a Cole too?

Indiscretion wasnt just a simple romance. The story of a survivor who is looking for justice and validation.. come on come on! Looking forward for Redemption

Her innocent ripped from her child like body. Stolen never to be returned, abuse and rape accompanied her nightly visitor.

Her escape came years later when he vanished. but by then the damage was done.

Drugs and one night stands gave her control but now she’s clean. She’s not that girl anymore

She’s the chosen one to be mentored by her professor on his legal cases. Excitement, elation and a night to celebrate!

The drink he buys her should of bought him a fantastic night under the sheets, but instead all it bought him was a slice of fun in his limousine and rejection.

Can he change her mind? can he be the one to fully tame her?

Oh my I melted into a puddle so many times reading this. He’s perfection personified and then some!!

She has demons in her closet, and some might call her damaged. I call her brave, I call her determined and I call her a survivor!

The tension they bring to this book is delicious! their need for each other consumes both them and you.

The emotion pours out of the pages and her pain is both poignant and harrowing at the same time.

He stole the show for me though, with all that he is, and all that he becomes. My heart is his that’s for sure!

A mesmerising first half of this duet. I can’t wait to read the conclusion!!!

Indiscretion by Callie Anderson is the first book in this duet. This book will grab you by the heart. Kat’s story will crush you. She has tried to put her past behind her and change how it dictates her future. When Kat and Cole crash into each others lives, it is instant, red hot chemistry. He is everything she needs to avoid but cant. Cole is a player. He doesn’t get all spun up over anyone. The things he feels for Kat are shocking to him. These two characters are fantastic together. This book has so much emotion and suspense. It will leave you wanting more now! Be warned that it does end on one heck of a cliffhanger. I cant wait to read Redemption.

Have you ever imagine what can possibly worst could happen to you than death? Something that would rip out your soul, your very self, your innocence, your future, your every single breath…

As a woman, Katherine live her life like zombie out of guilt of something not her fault. Out of fear for the evil that has took her innocence childhood. It breaks my heart reading her story. Knowing society had it’s roll for what happened to her. To all the rape victims.

Yes, rape. That big word that is most scary than death. Cause while the victim may still alive, society even the victim it self and the people who are suppose to love you unconditionally, raise a finger and point at you as the evil.

It is a hard limit for me to read about child abuse. So please understand it is hard for me to read about rape victims and how they fight every-day to live their life. And to write this review…

Salute for the author for talking about this super sensitive issuea and how delicate she sew her words in.

And in the end of this first book, of the evil that make Kat loose it…. My heart break all over. I can’t wait to read the next book. To see if the evil will get punish. To see if the Prince charming will be her savior. Or will Kat save her self and slay her own evil

Well Callie Anderson did it again, tore my heart out in the first few pages. And slowly pieced it back together. Only to slay me again. Indiscretion was a storm of emotion and growth and I hung on every word.

Katherine: Strong-willed. Determined. Smart. Damaged. Savvy.
Cole: Demanding. Charming. Sweet-talker. Billionaire. Sexy.

Their first meeting hi-lighted Kat’s sassy side and Cole’s alpha tendencies. I liked that she shut Cole down, and so did he. Call it fate, kismet, divine intervention, whatever you want, but these two just couldn’t seem to stop running into each other and Cole used it to his advantage. Well, as much as Kat would let him anyway.

Eventually these two gave into what their lust was telling them and holy smokes it was electric. But, as much as she wanted to, the traumas of Kat’s past kept her from going all in and it caused more than a handful of issues for her and Cole. And Cole has his own skeletons that don’t want to stay in the closet either. Cue the drama a la assumptions and miscommunication.

Just when I was thinking YES! That Kat and Cole were on the same page, her past came roaring back into her world and sent things spiraling out of control. My heart was racing as it was breaking for her all over again. I am beside myself with the way this ended. But I should’ve known, Indiscretion is a Callie Anderson title after all. Gah! I need the next part to this duet- like yesterday!

Good gosh, I don’t even know where to start. I didn’t know what I was getting myself into, when I first started to read the first part of this duet. Indiscretion is a dark gritty, some -what slow burn. Indiscretion left me with a whirl wind of emotions. The fear I felt was palpable, it literally gave me goosies all over my body. I felt the need of redemption, to the marrow of my bones, but I also felt the loneliness of living in a world, that is so cruel. Indiscretion fits the depth of what this book is all about., so I applaud you Callie for choosing a title that goes along with this story.

Katherine is different than your average heroines. She grew up differently, and that has shaped her, to who she is today. She is strong and resilient. Worthy, but has no clue how valuable she really is. She is not out looking for a good time, but is looking for validation.

Cole is Mr. Good -time. He works hard, and plays harder. In a league all on his own, his time is valuable and he doesn’t have much to spare. He is possessive, but not one to overstep. Valuable in more ways than one. And looks, to drive a woman mad.

I need to let it be known for why only 4.5 stars. That reason is because I think there should be a trigger warning, because some scenes are quite disturbing, and some readers may have a hard time with some of the subjects. Other than that, this book was amazing, and since Indiscretion left on a huge cliffhanger, I now am dying for Redemption. I need this book like I need my next breathe of air.

* I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!
