I went into this book, without any special expectation and I was pleasantly surprised. His to Possess is a quick read with high steam factor.



Jessica has left her hometown to attend a job fair in Philadelphia. Here she spots tall and dark stranger that reminds her so much of her ex who broke her heart. She decides to throw all caution out of the window and invites the sexy stranger, Dane, back to her room for the night. Jessica believes this is it, but this one night stand definitely do not end after just one night.



My list of ♥ and ☹’s for His to Possess:
High steam factor: The level of steam was definitely one of my favorite parts of this book and there were a lot of them. Opal Carew delivers varied scenes, but all of them with a common denominator; HOT.


Intriguing bi-characters: I really enjoyed Melaine and the little snipptes we got of her in this story. It made me very curious about her and what will happen to her. II would love to read a book about her and her way to her own HEA.

Predictable: If you have read books in this genre before, I do believe many of you will see what’s coming pretty early on. At least I did, and this is reflected in my opinions of this book. While reading I found myself waiting for the moments I predicted would happen and they, more than not, actually happened.

Indecisive heroine: My issue with this book was Jessica. I wanted to throttle her in large parts of the book. It’s hard to go into this without giving parts of the plot I don’t want to reveal. Anyways, Jessica’s indecisiveness bothered me a lot and her hot and cold behavior in general. Some of her decisions and actions were selfish and so mean to those around her in my eyes. These moments made it difficult to connect with her and thus like this book as much as I wanted to.



I did enjoy this book, but there was some moments that made it hard for me to fall in love with it. I do recommend it though for everyone who wants a quick and steamy read.
