Review: This Man Confessed, by Jodi Ellen Malpas

Where to begin…..

Let me start out by saying that I LOVE 50 Shades. I admit it, OK. I liked the story more than the hot scenes. I have read WAY hotter books. I never understood the hype. But I’m not here to discuss Shades, am I??

Since I liked Shades, I heard this series was similar, so I figured I’d give it a shot. Well….. Let’s just say I was not a fan.

If you want a book with very HOT scenes, then this is right up your alley. If you wanted an emotional roller coaster, this is perfect. If you like all happiness and flowers, then only to ripped apart by something horrible, then you shall be a happy camper. If you like sad back stories that gut you, then you will truly be content.

However, Jesse Ward was border lined stalker and obsessive, to the point I was getting uncomfortable. I was about to put it down, cuz it was close to crossing a line for me. I wanted to smack him and Ava.

The other super duper irritating part was his constant correcting of her swearing, when he swore like a sailor himself. Very annoying. It was a total turn off. Every other page he was yelling “Mouth!” Drove me up the freaking wall!!

Secrets was the theme of these books. I was going crazy. Every time we turn around, Jesse made a new revelation and I was getting upset. If he just spoke up and told Ava everything, right off the bat, none of these crazy things would’ve happened.

I wanted to like these, I really did. I kept hearing about Jesse Ward and how awesome he was, but I’m not a fan. I am so disappointed.
