“I will do
anything to make her MINE.” —Remington Tate
In the international bestseller REAL, the unstoppable bad boy of
the Underground fighting circuit finally met his match. Hired to keep him in
prime condition, Brooke Dumas unleashed a primal desire in Remington “Remy”
Tate as vital as the air he breathes . . . and now he can’t live without
her.
Brooke never imagined she would end up with the man who is every woman’s dream,
but not all dreams end happily ever after, and just when they need each other
the most, Brooke is torn away from the ringside. Now with distance and darkness
between them, the only thing left is to fight for the love of the man she
calls MINE.
Our Reviews:
If you haven’t already read Real, (seriously WTF are you waiting for
if you haven’t, this is Remington “Riptide” Tate we are talking about here
people and OMG his is freaking hot), you need to read it first so that you understand
Remy and his relationship with Brooke. Mine is the continuation of the story between Remy and Brooke.
I fell in love with Remington “Remy” Tate when I read Real, and I think I love Remy even more
now. He is even sexier in Mine, in my opinion. There is just something about an alpha male
doing what has to be done to protect what’s his that makes him so sexy in my
eyes. Remy didn’t give up and fought hard to protect
Brooke, even when doing so kept them apart.
Remy went black but he fought his way back to blue. Remy continues to fight off anything and anyone who may risk what he has with Brooke.
Brooke, well what can I say about Brooke besides you screwed
up, you left him, you cannot keep throwing things in his face when you left
him. I did feel bad for Brooke during
these times though, especially when she finds out Remy was black during the
time they were apart because she knows what he used to do before they got together. When Brooke finds out something big, it
changes everything between her and Remy and things will never be the same.
I liked Mine and
am looking forward to reading Remy’s POV in Remy
which releases soon as well. Mine will make you pull out your hair at
times and it will also make you want to find your own Remy at others. It is more emotional than Real because of the new “fights” Remy
will have to face in life. I really do
want a Remy of my own, now where to find one hmmmm.
Remy and
Brooke’s story continues on in Mine. And what a story it is. Remy continues to
fight both in the ring and out of it. He’s fighting for everything.
This is a hard review for to write. I love Remy
and Brooke. They have a romantic story that tugs at your heartstrings. We have a
man, Remy, who was abandoned by the very people that were supposed to love him
above all others. They left him and he loved to learn on his own. He defined
what love is to him. In some ways it’s obsessive and overbearing, but it’s out
of fear of losing that which he loves that causes it. Add in his bipolar and
you’ve got a powder keg waiting to go off.
Then we have
Brooke. Her upbringing was slightly different than most peoples. She was
training to be an Olympic athlete. Because of injuries she never got that far.
But, she’s made peace with it and moved on. Her parents love her but they can be
a bit difficult.
When circumstances change Brooke and Remy’s
relationship, it’s actually Remy that takes the more responsible position. I
really wanted to smack Brooke on the head. She was being immature and
irresponsible. There were actually several times I wanted to smack Brooke.
I also got
irritated with Brooke as she I felt the only thing she could talk about was how
everyone was staring at Remy (he’s a famous boxer and he’s hot, of course
they’re staring), how ripped he was (he trains 8 hours a day, he’s ripped), how
girls fawn all over him (see above), etc. It was repetitive to me. I also got
irritated at Brooke as she kept harping on Remy being with other girls after she
left him. It was reminiscent of Rachel and Ross in Friends. “We were on a
BREAK!” I’m not sure what she expected. She knew when he was black he wanted a
LOT of sex and touching. He’s not himself when he’s black. And, they were BROKEN
UP! SHE LEFT HIM!!
Now, the
saving grace of this book was Remy. He stood proud and tall. He stood up for
what he wanted and he didn’t back down. He was willing to do what it took to
make sure those he loved were safe. He made hard decisions and did what had to
be done.
