The Catch (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 2) by Phoebe Alexander – Review by Katie Kearney

The CatchThe Catch by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Catch (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 2) by Phoebe Alexander. While this is book two you can read it as a standalone without any questions or confusion. I knew by who wrote this book and the description that I’d like this book, but in all honesty that’s not where it stops. I absolutely loved this book and the amazing characters in it. From page one the main character Paisley drags you into her world. This story is definitely steamy but it’s also a bit suspenseful and I love that in a book. The author does a wonderful job of keeping all aspects of the story equal and well written. The characters are complex and flawed making them both believable and relatable to readers. The author is amazing at writing a story that can come alive before your eyes and make you forget you’re just reading a book. I’m giving this book a five star review and can’t wait to read more!

Siren Call (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 3) by Phoebe Alexander

5 Stars

In my opinion it says a lot about an author when she has a series out that deals with something I don’t understand or want to understand as far as the swinger lifestyle yet I find myself not being able to wait for each book in that series. I love the people in this series and their stories, but what I love the most is this author’s way of telling these stories.

I don’t read f/f, yet I loved this book. I connected with Jessie immediately and loved everything about her. It took me a bit longer to connect with Sirena, I just had trouble trusting her and it took hearing her complete story to totally understand her. I loved checking back in with all of the characters from the first 2 books and now can not wait for Casey’s story.

I only picked this book because of the author as she has become a definite favorite of mine and I highly recommend anyone that hasn’t read her books to pick one and read it and I just know you will love her as much as I do.

Siren Call by Phoebe Alexander – Review by Jenni Bishop

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Siren Call is the third book in the series and can be read as a standalone. This story is a story of a swinger’s club in Ocean City Maryland, and the characters in this story are a close and would do anything for each other. This story is about the mysterious Sirena who has secrets and a past she would rather keep to herself but as we find out more about her we see a connection like no other between Sirena and Jessie. Phoebe draws you in with intrigue and mystery, seduction and love.

Will they be able to solve the mystery behind Sirena?

This is my first book by this author and will not be my last. This story was written very well and had somewhat of a smooth flow. I guess if I had any issue with the writing it would only be that there was quite a few paragraphs that were completely descriptive of the surroundings or thoughts that interrupted a conversation. I personally don’t need all that in a book, but I know a lot of people like to get the feel of the surroundings while reading. Although it was written very well, I found myself skipping over those paragraphs. This is just personal preference and takes nothing away from the beautiful writing style of this author.

I loved the characters. I felt Cap and Leah were both described in a way that didn’t leave you wondering who they were. Cap lives a lifestyle that I have no understanding of and although I loved him for the man he was, I didn’t like the lifestyle choice, again just personal preference. Leah I could understand a lot more as I wasn’t raised the same way, but my beliefs are pretty much the same. I could definitely understand the battles she had going on inside herself. I knew what I wanted to happen at the end of this book early on and although it didn’t happen exactly the way I wanted it to, it was enough to make me want to read the next in the series.

I really can’t wait to check out the rest of her books, this book dealt with something I don’t understand or agree with, but to me it says a lot about an author’s talent that these few things I wasn’t crazy about still has me adding her to my authors to follow list.

Fisher of Men by Phoebe Alexander is the first book in the Eastern Shore Swingers series and is the first book that I have read by her. Phoebe did a good job of writing an interesting story on an alternate lifestyle. Her attention to details and her writing style makes it easy to read and keeps the story flowing and will keep you engaged until the end.

Leah is a professional and knows how to get the job done. You need something, she’s got it. Want something a little different, she’s on it. But when it comes to men and dating, nope, not so much. Leah is also frustrating, to the point at times, that you want to smack some sense into her but she is also funny and very entertaining. If only she would stop running. I found her to be a bit childish given her age and reaction to things but I guess that could be attributed to her upbringing.

Cap is easy on the eye and when he spots the beautiful Leah he starts to think what if’s. However, will his lifestyle scare her off? Will she be open to what he wants to share? Will he be able to give up what he enjoys and keep her too? Will her upbringing cause trouble in paradise?

The story line kept me on edge trying to guess what was going to happen next. Love is never easy but especially so when alternate lifestyles come into play but keeping an open mind and communication should make it easy right? If you like something a little different than your normal romance and something a little taboo, then this is the story for you, it was a very interesting read.
