BOOK REVIEW: Red Flags (Red Flags #1) by C.C. Brown

Red Flags by C.C. Brown
Series: Red Flags #1
Genres: New Adult, Contemporary Romance
Publication Date: Dec 2, 2012
My Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
Cara Pinkston, a 21 year old San Diego native, wants nothing more than to complete her final semester of college quietly and peacefully. A normally focused and reserved student, she becomes flustered after meeting her incredibly good-looking and wealthy classmate, Jason Bradley.

Jason wants Cara, and pursues her aggressively. A reluctant Cara gives in to him and is thrust into a fast paced, emotionally charged, roller coaster relationship. She has to decide if the flutters she feels are blissful butterflies or warning signs. Will Cara follow her lustful heart, or will she pay attention to the Red Flags?






My Thoughts

This has been release last year, but I found out the book ends up in a cliffhanger so I hold it off. I was stalking Ms. C.C. Brown for news about the second book, coz as much as I'm dying to read this I hate cliffhangers! The second book just came out few days ago... so I can finally read the whole damn series! wohoo! 

Someone mentioned this in amazon forum having a crazy possessive hero... and oh boy! They were not kidding! Jason is controlling, possessive, crazy and a freak. lol.
 
Red Flags is about a college girl named Cara. She meets Jason in class.. the Mr. Fuck Me Eyes. He's beautiful, heir to oil rich company and mysterious. Both are attracted to each other.. eventho Cara have this instinct that Jason is trouble, she ignored it and have a relationship with him.. and soon fell in love.

Okay, Cara... she's your typical quiet, shy and reserved heroine. To be honest, I have a love/hate relationship with her. She's weak, whiny, doormat, no backbone and kinda stupid. Jason will tell her to sleep and she goes to sleep. Jason tells her to put a bikini.. oh, she'll put the bikini! For a girl who is shy it boggles my mind that she had sex with him right away. I was expecting a little resistance from her. (but heck! I guess I couldn't blame her. If Jason seduced me I would prolly put down my panties too! ) lol


Jason on the other hand...whew! I do love my possessive heroes, but damn this guy is way beyond possessive! He's rude, obnoxious, controlling, crazy possessive and for some freakish reason it just turns me on! He's a broken soul and have some issues... okay a lot of issues that when everything came out, I was shocked and my mind was screaming O.M.G!!!

I just want to warn everyone that this is not your typical, bad boy meets heroine theme... this is an emotional roller coaster, drama fest that you wouldn't be able to put it down. This will keep you at the edge of your seat! I love it and highly recommend this book! I stayed up until 2am to finish this and now I'm off to read the second book! ^_^

About the Author
Just a book reading, writing loving, mommy and USMC wife! :)

I love to write, even if it isn't what is conventional and makes everyone feel giddy inside. I usually pull from dreams, or ideas that just thrust themselves into my head. I have what some would describe as a dry sense of humor, and I think its conveyed in my writing. I like to think I am a kick ass chick, but I can also be sensitive. I'm learning to grow thick skin, and in this field, it is definitely needed!
I won't put anything out that I am not absolutely proud of, but like E.L. James said, "I can't own people's reactions to it." Thanks for reading my work... I do appreciate it!
