Lucas by Jay McLean



FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME
Title: Lucas – A Preston Brothers Novel #1
Author: Jay McLean
AVAILABLE NOW



In a sprint, every millisecond counts. 

When you’re waiting for love, those milliseconds can feel like eons. 

High school senior Lucas Preston has it all: star of the track team, a scholarship waiting for him, an apartment to himself and a revolving door of girlfriends. He also has an older sister, five younger brothers and a father who relies on him to make sure those brothers don’t kill each other. 
His saving grace? Lois “Laney” Sanders, a girl he started to fall in like with when he was just eleven.
A girl who became his best friend, his confidant, his courage. 

It took only sixteen clicks and eight seconds for Lucas to realize that his like for Laney had turned into love. 
Eight life-changing seconds. 
It’s also the exact length of time it took to lose her.

COAST (Kick Push 2) – by Jay McLean
Series: The Road #3, Kick Push #2
Release Date: June 7, 2016


JayMcLeanKPandCoast3-web





One life-changing summer.
One boy.
The boy.
The boy who offered me safe touches and heart-stopping smiles - smiles he shared with his son.
We filled our days with porch-step kisses,
filled our ears with laughter,
filled our hearts with love.
Deep, soul-aching, desperate love.
But love is misleading.
It’s an invisible, fleeting moment.
Somewhere between false adoration and pure hatred comes an emotion, a vulnerable need, a single desire.
It lives within the ones who miss it, who crave it,
who know better than to expect it.
Love is relentless.
Even when that love turns to hate, turns to loathing,
turns to pain.
Love should heal you.
But it can also break you.
Believe me, I know…
Because I'm Becca Owens - a broken girl…
…And he's Josh Warden - the boy who broke me.

Redemptive by Jay McLean

redemptive-fb-cover-REVIEW

Title: Redemptive 
Series: Combative #2
Author: by Jay McLean 
Release Day: March.7, 2016

Redemptive E-book


It's said that your life flashes before your eyes when you die. 
It must only happen to those whose lives were worthy.
Clearly, mine was not. 

The only thing that happened to me was a repeat of what I thought was my death. 
The blast of the gun as it went off. 
The loss of my breath as two hundred pounds of dead weight dropped on top of me. 
And then darkness. 
This replayed over and over. 

When the guy squatted down next to me and asked if I was hurt, the only thing I could see, feel,
hear, were those few seconds.
Even now, as I sat in the back of a blacked out van—it was the only thing that ran through my mind. 
Gunshot, breath, darkness.

"You are the only freedom I've ever known."

I'm so mad at Jay!  How can she write this book??
She made me fall in love with Nate DeLuca. LOVE HIM.  I'm just so scared the third book in this series could destroy me.

Who is Nate? You have to read Combative to know who he is. Just don't expect to really know because Jay had created an awesome anti-hero!  
Nate should be someone I could just pass over....nah...He is so well written. The guy has a heart of gold under his bad guy façade. His life hasn't been easy and there is still drama to unfold. We get a glimpse into what the problems could be for him. 

And then Jay, gives us Bailey. Bailey five years earlier...What a huge difference five years makes. I knew she knew more than what she was saying. It was all too suspicious for me. Very convenient moving close to Ky. But, even though I know this, I still have too many questions.

In this book, we learn how Bailey's life changed. She was at the wrong place and at the wrong time. Yet, she was not going to let them "take her". She is a fighter in her own way. 

I love the connection Bailey and Nate developed. They had a very intense relationship under the worse circumstances ever!

I want Bailey with Nate. There, I said it. I hope Destructive gives me what I want and I get an answer to all my questions.

I want to know them now!!!!!!!

Combative by Jay McLean


Title: Combative 
Series: Combative #1
Author:  Jay McLean
Release Date: May 16, 2015




We all play victims to our pasts; to the choices we make and the lives we create. 
They define who we are. 
And sometimes if we're lucky enough, the past stays where it belongs: in the past. 
I'm not one of the lucky ones. 
I never have been. 
Because now the past is knocking on my door, offering deals I have no choice but to take… deals that will help bring justice—not just for me, but for my brothers. 


The problem? 
The deal is a ticking time bomb. 
One I didn't know existed. 

Tick. 
Tock.




I'm a huge fan of Jay McLean's work and The More Series has a special place in my heart.
I wanted to read Combative but I heard it had a cliffhanger. Now, that Redemptive is coming out soon, I knew I could dig in without much wait time.

The main characters in Combative are Kyler Parker and Madison Haynes. They are both in their early twenties.

Ky has recently returned to his hometown after four tours in Afghanistan. He's dealing with a lot of guilt, regret, and rage. This rage could lead to time behind bars unless he helps the cops dig up information on an underground fighting ring boss Nate Deluca,  who is linked to drugs. Ky accepts the mission and he immerses himself in the fighting scene. He starts his training for a future underground fight. Not too long after he meets the crime boss, then he meets his new neighbor Maddy. They meet when she's trying to open his mailbox by mistake. His new neighbor intrigues him. Little by little, Maddy seems to be breaking all the walls he has erected around his heart.

Maddy has a sad past, of that I'm sure. She seems to be broken and she appears to have some medical issues as well. She is very mysterious and secretive. More than once I found myself thinking that she was trying too hard to be inside Ky's radar. On the other hand, she had an innocence surrounding her. It was confusing. I was mistrustful of her motives.

Overall, I liked both characters. I liked that the book is mostly from Kyle's POV. You get to know Kyle pretty well. For all his horrible past he survived, he is a pretty decent guy. Yes, he is full of guilt and regret but he has a good heart. He cared about the people who loved him. Even if he didn't know how to express it.

Maddy was harder to read. She's still keeping secrets. So the jury is still out in regards to her.

I'm looking forward to reading Redemptive. I'm guessing we are going to get more of Maddy's POV in it.

Cliffhanger: Yes
