"OMG this book was so good!" Review: Will & Patrick Wake Up Married by Leta Blake & Alice Griffiths

March 28, 2016 by Leta

“OMG this book was so good!
Okay Patrick and Will meet each other one night while both of them are drunk in Vegas. Well one thing leads to another and they wake up in the morning married and sore due to the massive amounts of sex they had. Can I just say I loved Patrick’s character so much. He was just so snarky, so many times the things he would say in this book had me laughing to the point I had tears in my eyes.
So due to reasons that are beyond Will’s control they have to stay married until they can figure a way out of their marriage. So many things happen in this book that I was either laughing or feeling sad for Will because of what Ryan does to him. I loved the way the authors wrote these characters and the whole pretense of this story. So I don’t want to give away any spoilers because this book you have got to read for yourself, it was just so good! I can not wait to read the next one to see what these two characters Patrick and Will are up to next.
So all together I loved this book!
I would definitely recommend this book!

I received this book free in exchange for an honest review from Inked Rainbow Reads.”

“This was such a cute start to the series! I liked Will & Patrick and cannot wait to meet more of the characters of Healing! I hope we get some hot scenes too! The glimpses of their drunken night were such a tease!!!”

“You’ll be amazed how quickly you devour it and are left begging for more!!!” Will & Patrick Wake Up Married by Leta Blake & Alice Griffiths

November 28, 2015 by Leta

wake-up-married-banner-1

“What can I say? I was *immediately* hooked by the debacle of Will and Patrick’s booze-adled shot-gun marriage and the story that ensued. The writing is excellent, well-paced, and I developed an investment in the the characters almost instantaneously. Both Will and Patrick left me enchanted, frustrated, totally smitten…and completely impatient for the next installation!! If any of you are on the fence, get the book. You’ll be amazed how quickly you devour it and are left begging for more!!!”

“If you need an antidote to life’s travails, this is the story and series for you!” 5 Stars for Wake Up Married series by Leta Blake & Alice Griffiths #gay

November 20, 2015 by Leta

wake-up-married-banner-1

“This wonderfully humorous take on an old romance trope of winding up married unintentionally in Vegas was just what I needed to lift my spirits. I loved that the two MCs were both good looking but with serious character flaws. Will is an alcoholic with very low self-esteem and diabetes on top of all that. Patrick has no people skills (or so he says) but as a surgeon he does not believe he needs them. They are dynamite in bed, but as strangers who can’t get a quickie divorce, they must learn to live together. I devoured this story in one sitting and went on to enjoy the next two in the series as well. If you need an antidote to life’s travails, this is the story and series for you!”

“This book was just as good as book one!” 5 Star Review: Will & Patrick Meet the Family by Leta Blake & Alice Griffiths

November 11, 2015 by Leta

wake-up-married-banner-2

“5 stars

I was given this book by Inked Rainbow Reads for an honest review.

Book 2 in the Vegas Marriage of Will and Patrick. This book was just as good as book 1. Patrick gets to meet Will’s family. And of course Patrick can’t hold his tongue. Oh my I just love his snarky attitude. And the things he does voice are hilarious.

Once again I enjoyed this book very much. Definitely need to read these books in order. Looking forward to reading more about Will and Patrick.”

“Fast paced and very entertaining, the first Episode of Will & Patrick has left me wanting more.” Review: Will & Patrick Wake Up Married by Leta Blake & Alice Griffiths

November 3, 2015 by Leta

wake-up-married-banner-1

“I thought this was a really good start to the serial. Both men are clearly attracted to each other and have the same ultimate goal, but they have such polar opposite outlooks on life and how to go about things, that I can’t wait to see them navigate what’s coming. If they don’t physically kill each other first the underlying sexual tension just might do the trick! We don’t get to see them in bed, but the few memories we’re treated to and hints of some shared kinks are enough of a promise to keep me going.

Fast paced and very entertaining, the first Episode of Will & Patrick has left me wanting more. Next up, Will has to take Patrick to face the wrath of his mother.
