After the Night by Linda Howard
"Grey is an asshole and Faith is a love/lust struck bimbo. Still wondering how I ended up loving this book. LH is a freaking marvel!"

After the Night by Linda Howard
"I honestly don’t know what made me love this book that much. I guess just did.

It started with the hero throwing the heroine’s family out of their house and him calling the heroine a “t�

“You’re trash,� he said in a deep, harsh voice as the girl drew even with him. She halted, frozen to the spot,

Then her coming back to her hometown years later to unravel what truly happened years ago determined to prove that she’s not the trash everyone thinks she is. I just loved how determined she was and how she made something for herself despite how her family was.

Then all the sexual tension, the angst, and the struggle the hero have between trying to make her leave the town to protect his family and wanting to have her. This is such an addicting haters to lovers story that was just so good! I loved the characters, the suspense even if it was all so obvious, the plot, the romance, and just everything. I can see myself binge reading more of the author’s books!"

After the Night by Linda Howard
"
This book has the best asshole/jerk hero EVER!
OMG I loved every damn scene when he was horrible to her <3

I wanted him to be worse!!! I couldn't wait for it!

He is just that good! Or maybe I am that wrong bwahahhahahahhahahahh

But seriously, he is one of the best jerks I've read <3 I want to read more of those now <3



The story

I don’t know why you’re here, and it doesn’t matter. This motel belongs to me. You aren’t welcome. You have half an hour to get packed and get out." He gave her a wolfish smile that wasn’t really a smile. "Or do I have to call the sheriff again to get rid of you?"

It starts off in the past, showing Faith Devlin's life in childhood and teen years.
You'll be happy to know it only lasts 5 chapters (YAY!!!)
Her family is pretty much horrible, as everyone in town calls them, trash.
She is the only sensible among them, taking care of her little brother and basically the whole family.
One night changes everything, both for her and for Gray, a guy she's had a crush on for forever.
Her mother runs away with his father.
Yep, you can imagine how that turns out, and that is what causes the endless hate between the Rouillards and the Devlins.
Twelve years after the incident, Faith returns to her hometown, only to find Gray trying to throw her out of it again.
Bad for him, she won't back down :DDD




The romance

"You haven’t listened to my� suggestions yet."
"I don’t intend to, either. Go back to your table and leave me alone."
"I’d planned on doing the first." He stood and trailed a long forefinger down her cheek. "There’s no way in hell I’ll do the last."

The sexual attraction is through the roof here!
The romance isn't sweet, they fight constantly, but the dialogue, everything between them... Uber chemistry!
For one, I loved how they were trying to outsmart each other throughout the book. He wanted her out of town, she wanted to stay.
It was basically war :D
And in the middle of it, they were fighting the huge attraction, well, poor them because it didn't really work :)
What I loved best because even though Gray was pretty much a jerk to her all the time, he was also very protective. Yes, I know that sounds weird but if you read it you will understand. I loved him even more because of that :))))




Overall

Danger glittered in those dark eyes, and before she knew it, he was right in front of her again, almost playfully pinching her chin. "You’re a ballsy little babe, aren’t you? Maybe too ballsy for your own good. Don’t take me on in a fight, sweet thing, because you’ll get hurt."



My only objection here was the mystery.
Really predictable and not done so well.
BUT!
Gray more than made up for it.
I can't tell you how much I loved this, one of the best books I've ever read!!!!

If you like jerkish heroes, people, READ THIS NOW!!!!!
I can't recommend it enough!



*buddy read with Glam <3*"
