review from my blog rabidgummibear.wordpress.com
I ended up staying up most the night and putting off things to read this book. It was an amazing read. Very fast paced book and engaging read, but I have some minor issues with the book as a whole.

First of all you should know this is a compilation of books 1-5 in the Anything He Wants series, which is a good thing because these books separately are too short. I actually read part 1 before getting this set and was a little agitated by how abruptly it ends. If you are interested in this series be sure to get the compilation.

Next I have to say things do tend to fall into place almost too perfectly for the characters which for me at some times was a bit annoying, but overall I felt like it works because Jeremiah is a billionaire so of course things just fall together for him with those kinds of resources. So I can push it off as this is a fictional world.

The story in this book centers around Lucy and Jeremiah with bits of drama thrown in from his brother Lucas. The dynamics between Lucas and Jeremiah are cause for some pretty intense family drama along with revelations that are quite shocking. The plot of the book for the most part revolves around the sex and those parts are extremely hot and placed in just the right spots to break up plot. The worst part of the story though is how it ends. I wanted to throw my kindle I was so frustrated because I felt like we needed more than the cliffhanger we got at the end. You’ve been warned if you read this book the cliffhanger sucks to a point of massive frustration.

Overall I felt like this book was extremely hot and an addictive read. I have to say the cliffhanger brought it down to 4/5 for me versus being a 5/5. It’s worth the cash to read this fun story. ( )

Aby zena velke Lasky dosahla, musi se devkou stati:-)
Lucy touzi po krasnem cizinci z prace, ktery si toho vsimne, vojede ji ve vytahu a pak v garazi a pak, protoze je samozrejme Nejvetsi sef, vlastnici budovu v niz pracuje a div ne pulku zemekoule, ji nabidne, at mu dela asistentku-sexualni otrokyni. Oblibena radobydetektivka included- temne vztahy v rodine, nekdo ho chce zabit (a Lucy otravi).... ale tradicne je vetsi linkou jejich sex, protoze Jeremiah je samozrejme velkej dominant, takze ji obcas naplaca, potresta ji a vyzaduje jeji plnou pokoru. Ziiiv! ( )

This book. How do I explain how I feel about this book? My feelings toward this book are very complicated. Why? I found the book entertaining, but it was also horrible. The things that entertained me were the worst parts. A good example of this is the horrible quality of the writing itself.

The writing was repetitive to the max. One of the favorite repeated phrases in the sex scenes was the main character's "weeping entrance". It was inspiring thoughts of either weeping blisters and hives or the Weeping Angels of Doctor Who. Neither of those images are really conductive to setting up a hot scene. And when this happens in almost every chapter--sometimes multiple times in a single chapter--it becomes really hard to take. I didn't know if I should just laugh at that particular issue or throw the book at the television. It was really confusing. There were other things that were regularly repeated, which mainly had to do with Jeremiah's genitalia. It felt like the writer lacked the creativity to come up with any other descriptions of the characters.

There were some spelling and grammar issues, as well. The most memorable one for me was where Lucy was noticing how the "sunlight shown" into the room. I've heard that sometimes publishers leave grammar mistakes in to ward off bad luck, so maybe that's why that particular noticeable error got left in this story.

Aside from the bad writing, there was the problem of just how disgustingly abusive Jeremiah was. You think that Christian Grey is bad? Jeremiah is, in many ways, much, much worse. Where Christian kissed Ana on the elevator before she knew of his sexual proclivities, but after they had actually had a few conversations, Jeremiah fingers Lucy on the elevator the very first time he is on the elevator alone with her. He didn't even know her name before that day and she didn't know his until the next day. And he didn't have permission by her to finger her. She was attracted to him, which he took to mean that he could do whatever he wanted without ever asking. The next meeting with him is more intense and more grotesque. He sneaks up on her, has sex with her, and then offers her a ride home, but seems shocked when she doesn't want to get in the car with a man whose name she doesn't know and who just had sex with her without getting consent.

The next day, she finds out who he is and that he knows a lot about who she is.

After terrifying her by having her come to his office, he tells her that he's been planning on firing all the temps, which is what she is, but that he wants to hire her as his personal assistant. Part of her duties include doing, as the title says, anything he wants. Because Lucy is poor and no one else is hiring, she sees the job as being necessary to her survival. This is coercive. It is sexual harassment. It is abusive. Her choice has essentially been taken away and she even admits as much. Lucy has been stripped of her basic rights & dignity and we're just 3 chapters into the story.

Of course, there's the nice-ish side to Jeremiah. There's the side that some people might see as being caring and compassionate. Usually, it is just him throwing a tantrum about how he hired her to whatever he wants. And the tantrums work. He gets what he wants over and over again. This is not a Dominant and submissive relationship. This is an overgrown toddler dehumanizing a woman who has been through enough trauma and grief already in her young life.

Most of the book is about sex between Jeremiah and Lucy. It seems that it's used to distract the reader from noticing that there's not really any development of the characters or the plot. The suspenseful part of the book isn't that suspenseful. It's just random acts of nakedness and violence thrown together in a very haphazard sort of way.

I may read the sequel to this story, but I will only be doing so if I see it at my local library. I would not buy it and I'm reconsidering my desire to read any other works by this author. ( )

“Anything He Wants” by Sara Fawkes is undeniably a sizzling hot and spicy erotic adventure with a touch of intrigue.

I first read this book when it came out in installments. It was totally hot how Jeremiah & Lucy met, if you can even call it a meeting. Things happen so fast it leaves Lucy's head spinning. She goes from struggling to pay rent to wearing clothes that cost more than her yearly salary. The sex well that is just Hot Hot Hot! At one point Lucy becomes a prisoner in Jeremiah's house and Jeremiah well he is all by ignoring her she has the eager to just go outside, I was having the eager for her to just leave and go back to her pitiful apartment. This of course creates a shit storm of epic proportions. Lucy well he can be a bass ass when she needs to. The ending well it was a cliff hanger. "Anything he Wants part 6 Castaway" has been long awaited and it finally here this is why I choose to reread this one.

"Every morning you get on this elevator and I can smell your need."

"God your so fucking hot."
