RELEASE DAY REVIEW: Appealed by Emma Chase


Title: Appealed
Author: Emma Chase
Series: The Legal Briefs Series
Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22926494-appealed


Synopsis: 

When Brent Mason looks at Kennedy Randolph, he doesn’t see the awkward, sweet girl who grew up next door. He sees a self-assured, stunning woman…who wants to crush the most intimate—and prized—parts of his anatomy beneath the heels of her Louboutins.

When Kennedy looks at Brent, all she sees is the selfish, Abercrombie & Fitch catalogue–worthy teenager who humiliated her in high school in order to join the popular crowd. A crowd that made those years a living hell for her.

But she’s not a lovesick social outcast anymore—she’s a Washington, DC, prosecutor with a long winning streak. Brent is the opposing attorney in her next case, and Kennedy thinks it’s time to put him through a little hell of his own.

But things aren’t exactly working out the way she planned. Brent has his sights set on Kennedy, and every fiery exchange only makes him want her more—and makes her wonder if he’s as passionate in the bedroom as he is in the courtroom. In the end, they may just find themselves in love…or in contempt of court.

Sonja's Review


I've heard such great things about Emma Chase that I decided to put her on my ATR (Authors To Read) list and oh my gosh, I can't believe it took me this long to read one of her books because Appealed was so amazing! It was exactly the kind of book that I love reading and Ms. Chase jut totally hit it out the park with this one. I absolutely cannot wait to read the first two books in her The Legal Briefs series or any of her other books for that matter!

Man, oh man, Kennedy is a ballbuster! She's smart, strong, tough, and fierce. She gives just as good as she gets and she challenges and keeps Brent on his toes. Kennedy is stubborn, driven, and determined but she's also fun and she thinks fast on her feet. You will never be bored with Kennedy around - she's awesome and I really liked her!

I'm usually not very picky when it comes to my heroes - whether they are dark and brooding, silent and serious, or fun and playful - I like them all. But if I had to pick, I would probably say that the funny, playful hero is my favorite. There is just something about a guy who makes me laugh, it's like instant access to my heart and that's the kind of hero that Brent is. He's so funny and always making jokes and being in his head is just a riot. But if he hadn't made me fall for him with his humor - he would have anyway because he's an amazing guy! Brent is like a superhero and he will sweep you off your feet - literally. I just wholeheartedly LOVED him and I know he won't be a hero I easily forget!

Appealed is a fast, fun, hilarious, and sexy read. It's not the type of read full of angst, but there will still be times where it makes your heart ache and your eyes and nose burn with tears. It was beautiful, wonderful, and I just can't tell you much I loved and enjoyed reading this book, but I can tell you that it is one book that I definitely want to read again!

Appealed is a standalone, it's only told in Brent's POV, and Brent and Kennedy do live happily-ever-after!
