Layla Frost

Yay beefcake motorcycle dudes and then women they kidnap fall in love with! This book was the most over the top and fun of Frost's Hyde series. After creepin’ on a hot biker in the grocery store, Ophelia finds herself suspected of skulduggery by said biker, so he KIDNAPS HER! Also, he’s really, inexplicably attracted to her and wants to be with her forever, etc. Now Judge has to just convince Ophelia that they were meant to be together.

What I really like about Frost is her Alpha-ish heroes. They are bossy, demanding, rough and gruff on the outside but have ooey-gooey emotional cores that melt around their true lady loves. In pursuit of the one true alpha, I’ve read some real doozies. Frost delivers a decent, yet still rough around the edges, hero.

Her heroines are sassy and smart and capable, which is a great combo. Like the heroes, they are insanely attractive and everyone is either totally into them/dying of jealousy. It gets a little old when all female characters outside of the heroine and her close friends turn out to be catty bitches, but I liked more things about Frost’s books than disliked, so I could put it aside.

Her books aren’t really romantic suspense, although each has some action and mystery that usually culminates in some kind of epic showdown right at the end. Really, tho, the books focus on the relationship building… and the sex. Yowza, there is a lot of sexy good times in these books!… (more)
