Blog Tour Review: Love Tap by M. N. Forgy

I had high hopes for LOVE TAP.  I’m not a huge fan of fighting (MMA or boxing), but for some reason that element works for me in books.  So I was happy to see one of my favorite authors jump into this arena.

LOVE TAP revolves around the story of Tate and Camden.  They grew up together, were high school sweethearts but then their relationship fell apart as Tate tried to live up to her father’s expectations while at the same time hoping Camden chased after his dream.  Tate broke both of their hearts and the course of both their lives was not the outcome she was hoping.  What we get in this story is how Tate and Camden learn how to navigate their life living next door to each other and leaving the past behind.  At it’s core, it’s a second chance romance, where we are supposed to want Tate and Camden to find their new ‘normal’.

The story is good, but I found myself not liking either Tate or Camden very much.  They take verbal cheap shots at each and use sex (rough sex at that) to be the mechanism in which they work out their issues.  They rarely (at least in the dialogue in the book) actually talk about their issues.  They may yell out one of two things, but they never discuss they whys around why Tate felt she needed to leave.  Why she was protecting Camden.  Or even what Camden went through when she left.  I think if I had gotten a hint of those conversations, maybe I would have felt more of a connection.

The storyline itself had a lot of potential and that, in itself, is probably what saved the rating for this book for me.  I liked the female fighter aspect.  Of her desire to prove she could fight, despite what other around her were saying.  And of the bad boy of fighting finding his way back to a sport he loved.

LOVE TAP was a good read, but it was one that didn’t grab me the way other MN Forgy books have done in the past.

Excerpt

Climbing off the bed I grab her by the ankle, jerking her to the edge of the bed roughly.

She jumps awake panicked. Her wild, frantic eyes finding mine.

“Camden, what the fuck?”

“I thought I made it clear I didn’t want you to move, I wanted you to sleep on me.” My voice hard and accusing, all the feelings I felt that morning after she left when I was eighteen surfacing. She jerks her foot, but I tighten my hold. “I wasn’t joking.”

Bending down I grab her by the hips and throw her naked body over my shoulder.

“What are you doing? Have you lost your mind?”

“I have, and it’s because I fell for the little girl next door when I was a fucking kid,” I bark.

Yanking the curtains to the floor to ceiling window open I set her down, her back facing me.

“Put your hands on the window,” I instruct harshly.

She obeys surprisingly, and looks over her shoulder. “What are you doing?”

“Fucking you.”

Spreading her ass cheeks I push the head of my dick into her quickly, needing to feel her now. She takes in a sharp breath, her fingers tensing against the glass as I shove into her with so much force her head bangs against the window.

My chest rising and falling rapidly, I caress the shell of her ear with my lips.

“I know what you’re thinking.”

Her forehead pressed against the window she turns it, looking me in the eye.

“What?”

“That I’m possessive, controlling, crazy.” I thrust into her hard and her mouth parts with pleasure. “You made me this way, you made me the crazy man that wants to love you.”

Pressing my back onto hers, I interlock our fingers on the window, my face in the crook of her neck.

“Let me love you, let me be the crazy motherfucker that loves you.”

She nods, her breath fogging the glass as I continue to thrust into her.
