I purchased a copy of the steamy New York film production and BDSM based novel Valorous: Natalie and Flynn part 2 in the 8 novel collection Quantum Boxed Set: The Complete Series by Marie Force and this review was given freely.
Easy flowing and a bit repetitive. Contains a wedding, a reunion, a murder and some BDSM scenes/lingo then ends in a tragic cliffhanger.
When her lawyer sells her out to the media and the school learns of Natalie’s past and fires her, Flynn takes a shell shocked Natalie to his home and then California where the Godfrey family, the Quantum staff, acting world and the public rally around her.
18+ recommended.
Spoiler this novel is filled with BDSM events
This is book two in the Quantum series. Marie Force is one of my go-to authors when I’m looking for an entertaining read with engaging characters and a good story. The Quantum series is her exploration into a more risqué style than she is known for. I wasn’t too sure about starting this series since it does deal with the BDSM lifestyle, which is not my cuppa. However, I decided to give the series a whirl because I trusted Ms Force to approach it with her typical style. I’m pleased to say that is just what she did. While there are references to BDSM it continues to be more as an aside in this book, a setting, a circumstance…not the point of the story. Valourous is about the developing relationship between Flynn and Natalie more than anything else. There truly is little of the BDSM scene other than referencing it. Ms Force offers a “sweet” version of the story as an alternative. It’s like two books in one.
Valorous picks up right where Virtuous leaves off so be sure to read that one first. Natalie is devastated by an unspeakable betrayal at the end of Virtuous. Flynn is determined to make sure that the culprit pays a hefty price for the betrayal. Their relationship continues to rocket on at an unimaginable pace and it’s all unimaginably sweet, too. Valorous is fast-paced and would be totally unbelievable in real life, but in the book world, it works.
I loved this book it has now gone to my top five list!
So here we are in book 2 and Flynn and Natalie are completely and madly in love with each other. Of course there are going to be obstacles in the way of their love story. If there weren’t any obstacles than this wouldn’t be a fairy tale. So here we find Natalie’s real identity and family. Her siblings try to reconnect with each other and are able to reconnect with each other, of course Flynn is being extra cautious with this delicate situation. During this whole process, he doesn’t care about his reputation, but the safety of his love, Natalie and her heart. Again I loved loved everything about this book. Marie Force has again outdone herself. Definitely worth more than 5*****
TW/CW: heroine has been raped in the past. In this book she retells what happened to her
Still liking this series. Hero and heroine have me very frustrated. I like their story but they are a mess. Still recommend.
Loved this book!!
READ THIS BOOK!!! I’ve read the whole series. I cant express enough love for this series of books and its phenomenal characters. If you haven’t read these books, please give the series a try. They’re hot, sexy, exciting and a pleasure to read. These books knocked Fifty Shades out of # 1 in my heart!!! Read them!!! You’ll fall in love too!
The series by Marie Force (Fatal & Green Mountain) I highly recommend.
Flynn and Natalie are caught up in the maelstrom of the aftermath of Natalue’s past coming to light. Flynn is enraged and immediately sets to control the damage. Natalie is numb but slowly works back to almost normal. All this happens amidst the awards season in Hollywood where accolades continue to be bestowed on Camouflage and Flynn. Natalie is by his side throughout. Realizing he can’t live without Natalie but he can live without being in the lifestyle, he proposes and she accepts. They marry quietly in Vegas and things finally seem to start going their way. Unfortunately a chance encounter brings an awful truth to Natalie and even when she gives Flynn the chance to fess up he does not
In order for Natalie to build a future, she must first face her past. It’s ugly, it’s heartbreaking and has come back to haunt her. How will she survive the shame now that the truth has come out? Valorous picks up where Virtuous left off. Flynn shows his heart, while Natalie struggles to keep hers intact. The author paints a picture of lost innocence and a chance at renewed hope in the gritty romance that Is Natalie and Flynn.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this steamy series. The characters are well developed and have flaws like everyone else. The story line had nice twists.
