BLOG TOUR, REVIEW, & GIVEAWAY ~ More Than Her by Jay McLean



More Than Her (More Series book 2)  
Publication Date: November 18, 2013 
Published By: Jay Mclean 

  BLURB:

For every action there is an equal or opposite reaction." For every choice you make there are rewards, or there are consequences. It was my choice to walk away the first time. And my choice to chase her the second. But sometimes you don't get a choice, and all you get are the consequences.” "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.” Unless that someone is Logan Matthews. Because loving him didn't give me the strength to walk away. It didn't give me the courage to fight for him. And when it was over, all it gave me was a broken heart.

GAHHHHHHH!!!!! This book nailed ALL my emotions!!! Jeez it was 7:30 in the morning when I finished but DAMN this book is that amazing. I thought More Than This was awesome enough, but this second book BLASTED my expectations out of the ballpark!!! 

description

I know the ending of the first book left all of us wondering who Logan was crushing on. Don't fret! Don't tear your hair out guessing because Jay delivers a most satisfying answer. My advice would be to re-read that last part in MTT and think again about what Logan is really saying. *wink* I must say that though this book has plenty of scenes with Jake, Micky, and the gang, this is truly Logan's story. His past is dark, painful, and heartbreaking to read about, and coupled with her past experiences, this book is bound to stir your emotions so make sure you bring out the tissues!!

I honestly can't review this story without giving away who the heroine is or blurt out certain plot twists so I'm going to do a gif review. Just a heads up. 

When I first started reading, I was nervous and excited to see who this girl was. When I got to that part, thevery first thing that popped into my mind was:

Best.answer.ever. So now that I knew, it immediately left me wondering, well how the hell are they going to work their relationship out?!

But no worries! Everything ties in quite nicely, and plenty of scenes had me doubling over with laughter!! Here, this is what I mean:

^^Cam + Lucy (drunk or not drunk) = EPIC I seriously can't wait for their story!! I think this is my favorite LOL scene. Oh wait. Yup it is. I woke up my roommate and our neighbors with my laughing!

This book also had its fair share of angst. I normally don't do well with angst, but the amount here was perfect. Enough to give me that batshit crazy feeling but not enough to drive me up a wall and chuck the book out the window. There were some choices Logan made I firmly disagreed with, but I also realized that at the time, it was probably the only choice he could've made. I think he was confused by all these feelings he had, and once I read about his past, I could definitely see why he felt unworthy and hopeless. I did plenty of this when it came to the angsty scenes, and so did Logan:

description

The humor, the originality, the sweet yet angsty story plot were all reasons for a 5 star rating for me, but what really clinched it was this HUGE, MASSIVE, NEVER SAW IT COMING twist(s) in the last quarter of the book. And I mean W.O.W.. I had to take a couple of seconds to make sure I wasn't reading it wrong. This move was pure brilliance on Jay's part. Besides saying "oh my god" like a million times, this is what I also did:

And the heart-to-heart scene? AHHHHHH!!! 


*True


Real*

*Heartbreak

Moment*

description

The ending of this book left me with three feelings:

Disbelief that this happened

description

Heart attack because it happened

description

Anticipation of what will happen

description

There is definitely much more to this addictive, encompassing, heartwrenching story, and I am anxiously, tapping my foot patiently waiting for the next installment of the series.

Bravo Jay! You more than a lot outdid yourself with this one!

  Excerpt

 He gripped my ass tighter. I let out a sound I had no idea I was capable of. I was so fucking turned on. His movements on me were making me so wet I could feel it soaking my panties. His mouth moved from my neck to my ear, "You gotta quit making those sounds, baby." He kissed the spot behind it. "I'm starting to lost it." Then he took my mouth in his, moving into me harder, pinning me to the wall. My leg on the floor moved to wrap around him. I needed him closer to me; I needed more of him. He started to build a rhythm again. I felt that slow burn building low in my stomach. I didn't know how the fuck he was doing it. Or what the fuck he was even doing. But I didn't want it to stop. Ever. "Oh my God, Logan." I was panting; my head threw back against the wall. He was on my neck. Sucking. Hard. He was going to leave a mark. I wanted him to. "Matthews! What the fuck are you doing?" A deep voice yelled. I screamed, dropped my legs, ducked, and hid behind him. Oh. My. God. Reality set in. What the fuck were we doing? "Fuck." he spat. His hand went down his pants to adjust himself before turning around. "What the fuck do you think this is, Matthews?" "Sorry, Coach" Oh. My. God. Kill me now. "Go home!" I was too embarrassed to look past Logan to see his coaches reaction. "Yes Sir." Logan sounded like he was about to laugh. What the hell? "I'll cover for you." His coach sounded different now, like he was trying to contain his own laughter. "Fuck, I wish I was in college again," he said, before I heard his footsteps walking away. I don't know what emotion was on my face when Logan turned to me, but he laughed. Fucking laughed. "This shit's not funny!" I whispered loudly. " I almost let you have me. " I motioned with my finger at our surroundings. "Right here!" He didn't respond. Just looked me up and down and licked his lips. His eyes settled on my face, as he brought his hand to cup my cheek. And then his face was so close to mine; I could feel his breath on my lips. He rubbed his nose against mine. "Wait here," he said, his voice low, laced with desire. "We're not even close to being done. I'm going to take you home and I'm going to fucking finish what I started. And when I'm done with you, you won't even remember what happened just now. All you'll remember is how I make you feel when you're screaming my name."
