Whispered Thoughts: Blog Tour & Review: Gage By: Tess Oliver

~ SYNOPSIS ~

Gage is part of the Barringer Brothers series but can be read as a standalone.

After nearly losing his friend in a logging accident, Gage Barringer is convinced now more than ever that he needs to find a different job. But his side business of breaking colts at the small Montana ranch he inherited from his grandfather doesn't earn him enough money. He has his mind set on running The Raven's Nest, a popular bar and restaurant near his ranch. The original owner has died and Gage is waiting for it to be put up for sale. But there is a five-foot-four, brown eyed, obstacle in his way, an obstacle with lips made for sin and a voice made for breaking hearts. And Summer Donovan is one road block Gage Barringer won't be able to find a way around.

~ My Thoughts ~

Wow I had no idea what I was going to be reading but boy am I extremely happy about reading this story!!! It has only taken me 1 hole day to read cover to cover ok maybe just a tad over 1 hole day. The author has done a really great job with the writing style and the characters. The surprising journey that the characters take to find true happiness and love is really amazing one.

The story has a 2 person POVs which is great. You have alpha drop dead hottness Gage who doesn't want love but gets it anyways. Gage is this head strong male who knows what he wants and isn't afraid to get that. He is really a sweet person deep down. Summer this sweet girl who completely cant win for anything moves across country to start over. Shes this tattoo, rocker, singer that is determined to overcome the worse. Together they make a really great couple. Hell all the characters have really blown my head out of the water.

I really feel this is a must read hell I really want more. It doesn't have a cliffhanger if it does then I completely missed it somewhere towards the end. The author has done an amazing job. Hell I know for a fact now I'm going to read more of her stories that is how well I really liked her writing.

~ EXCERPT ~

He looked at me a long moment. "I want you so fucking bad, Summer, it hurts." He combed his long hair back with his fingers and chuckled at some inside joke. "You have no idea how bad."
"Then what's holding you back? It seems to me--"
He shook his head. "Can't explain it to myself." His dark lashes dropped as he stared down at the floor, and when he lifted his face to me, I realized that I was falling hard for him.
"I guess I don't want to scare you off." He shook his head. "Not that I'm scary in bed," he quickly amended. "I don't want to come on too strong. Hell, I guess I'm just trying to make a good impression."
"Stop with the good impression shit. I want a lasting impression, Gage."
His pale blue eyes flickered in the light as he looked at me. "I can do lasting." He crossed the room in two steps. His arms curled around my back, and he pulled me against him. His mouth covered mine. The kiss was long and hard and driven by that intense longing that had been building up between us. He took hold of my good hand and walked me down the short hall to my bedroom. He pushed open the door with his boot and led me inside.
