Review Rewind (#4): Finding a Dream (Conquest #4) by S.J Frost

Review Rewind (#4):
This is my last Review Rewind for S.J Frost. I have read the next two stories in the series and those review posts will be coming next week. I can't stress enough how amazing this entire series has been you simply must give it a try. I am sure you will love it, as I do.

Goodreads Summary:
Bullied and harassed at school for his sexuality, Dillon Davis can’t see his life getting any better, but he can see it getting worse. Depressed, wounded in spirit and body, he’s nearing a point of hopelessness, until he sees a picture of his favorite stage actor, Brandon Alexander, with his partner, Shunichi Miyamoto. At learning Shunichi runs a karate dojo, a spark of hope comes to Dillon of learning to defend himself, and most of all, meeting Brandon.

Brandon Alexander is filled with compassion for Dillon the moment he meets him. He knows all too well what it’s like to be scorned for being gay. He and Shunichi want nothing more than to help him, but when Dillon never returns to the dojo, they fear what’s happened to him.

My Thoughts:
This is book 4 in the Conquest series. I loved that Jesse and Evan had a cameo in this book, but didn't take away from the focus of the story. Brandon & Shun played a much bigger roll in helping out Dillon. The fact that they didn't even hesitate to do so made me love them that much more. I hope we get to see Dillon again at some point in the future. This series is so amazing, I think everyone needs to read it.

I have only read this one once, so far, and I just finished it in January. I will reread it at some point as with the rest of the series. I think this one really hits hard on the facts that kids today are bullied relentlessly and that there are people out there that can and will help.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5*!

Review Rewind (#3) Keys to Love (Conquest#3) by S.J Frost

Review Rewind (#3):
I love S.J Frost's work which is why I am featuring her in my first set of Review Rewind posts. This entire series so far has been heart-stopping, laugh inducing and tear jerking!

Goodreads Summary:
For two years, Julian Forrester's been playing keyboards and piano for Conquest. Having left behind a classical career, he's reached a level of fame like he's never dreamed. But fame and fortune can't bring him the one thing he wants most; love.

Morgan Chandler spent years teaching students to love music until budget cuts forced him out of a job. With family debts rising, Morgan accepts a job as a roadie for Conquest. He thinks he'll hate it with one exception -- he'll be close to Julian.

Can the two find the right music together that will lead them to the Keys to Love?

My thoughts:
This is book 3 in the Conquest series by S.J Frost and I love, love, loved it! It is a M/M romance and is just amazing! I was so excited to read Julian's book & Morgan was the perfect man for him. I couldn't stop reading this, as with the others in this series I just had to finish it! S.J Frost certainly has a way with words, and is a master storyteller! I can not wait to read the next book.

I read this one in January of this year and haven't had the chance to read it again yet, but I am sure that I will. Right now (among other reads) I am working on finishing up the remaining books in the series. Once again if you haven't read this series please move it up on your list. You will NOT be disappointed!

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5*!

Review Rewind (#2) No Fear (Conquest #2) by S.J Frost

Review Rewind (#2):
Today's review rewind is on the second book of the Conquest series by S.J Frost. It is an amazing love story and you just have to read it!

Goodreads Summary:
After touring for more than a year with his band, Conquest, singer Jesse Alexander is ready to head home for a long rest with his partner, superstar vocalist, Evan Arden. When it’s time to hit the studio again, there’s competition from two new bands and tensions reach a breaking point that threaten not only Conquest’s future, but Jesse’s relationship with Evan. As he faces challenges unlike any he’s ever known, Jesse must somehow keep it together to duplicate Conquest’s success and reach his ultimate goal: showing NO FEAR and announcing his love of Evan publicly.

My Thoughts:
This is book 2 of the Conquest series and is the continuation ofEvan and Jesses story. I loved this book just as much as the first one. Ev and Jess have an amazing relationship. Dispite being rock icons and constantly in the public eye they make it work. I would definitely recommend this title. If you have never read a m/m romance this series is the perfect place to start.
Again, I read this one back in September and I have since then read it again. I still love both the characters and the story as much as I did the very first time I read it. Jesse and Evan are the perfect couple add to it seeing Jesse's brother Brandon finally find his happiness and *sigh* its a book that can take your breath away.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars!

Review Rewind (#1) Conquest (Conquest #1) by S.J Frost

Review Rewind (#1):

Hi everybody! I have decided to do a series of posts involving reviews of some of my favorite books, that I read before starting this blog. I am going to start out with the Conquest series by S.J Frost because it popped my M/M cherry and because I absolutely love the stories!  I am about half-way through the series now and want you to be caught up before I post reviews for the later books in the series.

Goodreads Summary:

Vocally gifted singer, Jesse Alexander, has dreams of taking his band, Conquest, to the top. Evan Arden was thought of as a musical genius when at the height of his career he vanished from the spotlight. Together, their relationship is just as intense as their music careers. With success pushing down on them, Jesse must decide between his life of music, or his life with Evan.

My Thoughts:

Let me start by saying that this is the first m/m romance I have ever read but I was completely blown away. Jesse and Evan have such an instant connection and passionate romance that I was hooked right away. There were a few times I laughed and quite a few times I cried. Conquest is such a touching story I just can't even do it justice. Please have an open mind and read this book. You will not regret it! I would highly recommend it. I am looking forward to starting book 2 "No Fear" right away.

Since I wrote this review in September of last year I have read Conquest three more times and I love the story, (as well as Jesse and Evan) more and more each time. It is such a fantastic Romance that I think even people that are not fans of the M/M genre will enjoy it. For those of you that have never tried a M/M romance this is a perfect book for first timers.

*Thanks again JoJo for the initial loan and recommendation!*

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars!
