BOOK REVIEW: Resisting Her by Kendall Ryan

Resisting Her by Kendall Ryan
Genres: New Adult, Erotic, Contemporary Romance
Publication Date: Apr 15, 2013
My Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
Agent Cole Fletcher lives for his job at the FBI, and he’s more than ready for his next assignment—raiding a cult compound and putting their leader behind bars. But he isn’t prepared for Savannah and her knock you on your ass good looks. At nineteen, she’s too old for foster care and too damaged to live on her own. With nowhere else to go, and against his better judgment Cole takes her in.

But helping her out won’t be easy. He comforts her through screaming nightmares and escaping the lingering fears of her past, but that’s the easy part. Her preference to sleep cuddled up next to his warm body, and her desire to please him in every way makes her harder and harder to resist.





My Thoughts

She wasn't the one needed saving...

Cole is FBI agent raiding a cult compound and found Savannah crouched in a corner. Cole picks her up and she seems to instinctively trust him right away. Cole watches the authorities take her away but couldn't help thinking about her and how she'd felt in his arms. He ends up seeking her out just to make sure she's okay but Savannah is not happy and offer to bring her home with him...

Cole is a sexy, alpha protective to Savannah. He's not looking for love but he couldn't help his attraction to Savannah. The sexual tension was all over the book to the point that I just want to smack Cole for being so dense!  lol. One of the reason why he doesn't want to touch her is because she's too young, needs to spread her wings... yada, yada, yada! I was getting pissed with his silly reasons.. heck half the book was him denying and fighting his attraction. But despite my rant for Cole, I couldn't help but fall for him. He's just so sexy and to darn sweet!!

Now on to Savannah.. She didn't have the normal teenager experience because she spent most of her life in a secluded compound taking care of other people. Yes, she's naive but also very strong and not whinny. It was interesting to see her mothering Cole and the way they cuddled at night was very sweet. She was very open and honest with her feelings. Cole thought she needed saving, but it was her who saved him in the end.

Ohh and when Cole brought the girl in his apartment... and Savannah was watching them...whew! that.was.hot!!!! ^_^

My only complain in this story is the dirty secret Cole was keeping.. I was on the edge the entire time and thought omg! what's the big secret?!  then when the secret was revealed I couldn't help but feel disappointed. I was like... wtf?! What happened to Abbie? The way he clung to Cole, it seems like Abbie didn't want to let him go... How about Dillon?  I have few unanswered questions. grr!

Over all I really really like this book! I'm a big fan of Ms. Kendall Ryan and was anticipating this book ever since. This is a must read and I highly recommend it!
