Book Review: Politics and Paperwork by Sofia Aves (Blue Blooded Brothers Book 1.5)

 


    Selena has stood by Liam's side ever since they met. Her best friend. She seen him go off to war and come back a different person. Never once did it progress past friends, no matter how much the desire was there. Now, with Liam on force LOA from work she has to make sure he is taking care of himself which seems to be sending some new sparks into their relationship. Could they finally progress to more or will Logan have found a new way to get a member of the team chasing him the last 5 years? 

    I received this book and Collision from the author in exchange for an honest review. I didn't realize until after I had finished this book and started on Collision that this book takes place after Collision ends. It doesn't detract from the book I am now reading, just little things are given away in Politics and Paperwork that I wouldn't have known had I read them in the correct order. 

    Moving on. When I received this request I was skeptical. I hate all things politics and almost denied the request without even reading the synopsis on the title alone. But, when I voiced my hesitation to the author they assured me that there wasn't actually politics in the book and I relented. They were, of course, correct. There isn't so the title should not be a deterrent. 

    Selena is smart, sexy, and an older woman and Liam isn't much different. It isn't common that we see a romance for a generation older than their 20s, so this was interesting. Maybe because I am in my mid 20s now and I am reading more mature books. Teenage romances hold none of the appeal they once had for me. Most of the time I analyze them from a parental standpoint versus a reader one. I will say that I am curious about Liam's background. Did he leave the military because he didn't want to reup? Emotional trauma? Physical? Didn't really go into a lot of details. Considering the author has an entire series of these Blue Bloods I am sure the answer will be given at some point in time or another. 

    This is a cute, fast romance that leaves me curious about other books in the series. As I am now reading Collision I can tell some differences. In fact, Politics and Paperwork reads more like a quick novella. Which it may be. Not sure, didn't look too far into it. Either way there are threats, mystery, and barely leashed lust. Oh my. 

    This book is available on Amazon for $0.99 by clicking here. Remember this is book 1.5...maybe 2. Not sure how the author would label it considering Amazon does not. Upon further inspection on Amazon and the 5 books in this series I have decided it is book 1.5. This book is available on Kindle Unlimited.
