Call on Me by Roni Loren
5.0
Jaime's Review
Honestly, I had never heard of Roni Loren until a few months ago when I took part in a review tour for her novella Nice Girls Don't Ride and I realized that I was clearly missing out on some great reading. Then the opportunity to read this book came up and I just knew that I couldn't pass it up. I was so right on. I am so in love with her writing and her characters and I NEED to find the time to fit in the entire Loving on the Edge series, like ASAP!!
Since I haven't read any of the books in this series (aside from Hunter and Devon's novella. PS. I LOVED IT!!) I knew nothing of Pike, who appeared in Not Until You but my curiosity has definitely been piqued. I fell in love with Pike pretty early on and I need to know as much as I can about him, especially from before he met Oakley.
The D/s storyline has run its course with me but this form of it between Pike and Oakley works because it's their own brand of it. Pike doesn't put a label on himself because he likes what he likes and sometimes those likes change, labels wouldn't allow him that same freedom. Normally a guy calling his girl mama would totally gross me out but coming from Pike, it just works. I actually fucking loved it.
Every time I thought the story was headed in a predictable way the characters stepped up and changed the game. It was such a refreshing change of pace. The only pattern I could find with this story is the author's ability to make me fall in love with situations and a storyline that I wouldn't normally enjoy. I can't wait to read each and every book in this series. I have a lot of catching up to do!!!
