Sideswiped by Lia Riley
Off The Map #2
Release Date 7th October 2014
Talia Stolfi has seen more than her share of loss in her twenty-one years. But then fate brought her Bran Lockhart, and her dark world was suddenly and spectacularly illuminated. So if being with Bran means leaving her colorless NorCal life for rugged and wild Australia, then that’s what she’ll do. But as much as Talia longs to give herself over completely to a new beginning, the fears of her past are still lurking in the shadows.
Bran Lockhart knows that living without the beautiful girl who stole his heart will be torment, so he’ll take whatever time with her he can. But even though she has packed up her life in California and is back in his arms for the time being, she can’t stay forever. And the remaining time they have together is ticking by way too fast. Though fate seems determined to tear them apart, they won’t give up without a fight—because while time may have limits, their love is infinite . . .

My Review
 |
| 4 smoking hot stars |
Sideswiped is
book #2 in the Off The Map Series, I read and enjoyed the first book Upside
Down here’s a link to my review.
I was given a
copy of this book in exchange for an honest review so here goes...
I liked both Talia and Bran in the first book in
the second book I love Talia, she doesn’t seem quite so crazy and she trying to
create an independent life for herself and I can totally appreciate that.
Now Bran was a bit of a dick in the first book
but he grew on me and by the end I kind of loved him. I’m sorry to say that in
Sideswiped he becomes a whiny woman!!!!!
Someone needed to kick him up the ass because Christ
he was a wuss!!! He moaned and whined and worried like a 70yr old woman.
That being said I still thought they were a
lovely couple, together they stopped being idiots and behaved like normal
people.
Talia and Bran definitely have some serious
sexual chemistry and they connect on a physical level. The sex scenes were
steaming hot and hell they went at it like rabbits!!!
I don’t want to give away any spoilers but I’m
glad that they made the life decisions that they did, the whole if you love
them set them free thing feels very appropriate for this story.
Karma was bizarre he’s like the swampy of 2014 I
feel like maybe he was gay and interested in Bran or he could just be a bit of
an oddball.
I found this book very funny, I’m hoping that
intentional lol, the hipster me against the man crusade was hilarious and all
of the eco warrior stuff made me chuckle.
Don’t get me wrong I can appreciate the save the
planet sentiment but I’m just not entirely sure if this was serious or more of
a satire.
This book doesn’t feel like the end of Talia and
Bran’s story there wasn’t enough final conclusions to their story. I’ve just
found out that there is a 3rd book called Inside Out and
I’m fairly
sure I’m going to go begging and see if I can get a copy to review.
Sideswiped gets 4 stars from me.
