Laura's Review of Take Me With You (Take Me, #2) by K.A. Linde

Synopsis

Grant
All of my demons are coming to head.
I thought Ari could push them back.
I thought I could conquer my vices with her at my side.

I thought wrong.

Aribel
Fear is my new constant.
I thought I could conceal it, contain it, control it.
I thought that now that I had Grant the worst was over.

I thought wrong.

But if we’re going to survive, wherever you go…take me with you.

What I Loved

       

               Wow well I am a HUGE fan of K.A. Linde and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Take Me with You and this story was everything I hoped it would be and more!  This story picks up a little while after Take Me for Granted ended with a little bit more settled Grant and Aribel.  It’s so wonderful to see Grant and Aribel more committed to each other with the realization that they both love each other very much.  Grant once again is as sexy as ever with his beautiful face, and talented fingers.  Not only is Grant back but his awesome band ContraBand has come along for the ride. 

          Of course with every K.A. Linde story there are tons of ups and downs and some jaw dropping moments and Take Me with You is filled with them!  I love the chemistry between Grant and Aribel and boy oh boy the chemistry leads some very hot naked scenes between these two that definitely left me blushing a little.  I mean who doesn’t love naked Grant McDermott?  I also loved that although Aribel and Grant are in love with each other, things aren’t boring AT ALL.  There is still plenty of drama to go around between these two. 

          I love that not only has Aribel and Grant’s relationship peaked my interest but so did Miller and Shelby (and Sidney) and Vin and Cheyenne as well.  I truly would love another series just all by themselves because all these characters are so awesome.  I love stories when I don’t only get engrossed in the main characters but the supporting characters as well.  I don’t just want a happy ending for Aribel and Grant I want it for all of them!

Not So Much

          I really don’t have a ton of complaints when it comes to this book because it was so freaking awesome.  I guess my only negative thing is that usually I absolutely LOVE the female lead character and although I really like Aribel there are things about her that hold me back from absolutely loving her.  I think it’s her constantly trying to make sense of everything that kind of gets on my nerves, because I’m more of an emotional person who follows their heart (even when I shouldn’t) so people who are just too much in their head are sort of a turn off to me.  Although I really do like Aribel, I can’t get upset that she’s exactly like me and I still root her happiness!

To Sum It All Up!

       

   Like I said in the beginning I couldn’t wait to start reading this book and I was so excited about it that I read in about two days, I’m pretty sure I was up till 3 in the morning this weekend reading in the dark because I couldn’t this story down! I was so excited to jump back into Grant and Ari’s world and find out what’s in store for them next.  It was great to once again experience their love for each other and watch as they grow together as a couple and as individuals.  I love that this story switches points of views so you get to see what’s going on in Grant’s life as well as Aribel’s.  There was definitely some heart pounding moments along with heart breaking ones, and I love stories that deliver the drama!  I can’t wait to see where Grant and Aribel go from here as well as the rest of the gang!
