REVIEW: New Leaves, No Strings by C.J. Fallowfield @cjfallowfield








So that was sex, I liked it, I really liked it, thought Mia Page as she tried to recover from an Olympic worthy orgasm. She looked into the vivid blue eyes of sex god Gabe Austin who was still holding her up against her bedroom wall and she also thought shit what have I gone and gotten myself into? Why would anyone only want sex no strings with this guy? 

Best friends Mia Page and Lexi Clarke start University and make a pact to turn over a new leaf. Tainted by their pasts, they’re going to try and get over their commitment phobias. Mia’s going to lose her virginity with hot, no strings attached sex. The rebellious Lexi’s going to try ditching her one night stands in favour of attempting to have a relationship.

What Mia didn’t count on however was Gabe Austin, confident, sexy and irresistibly gorgeous, who quickly inserts himself into her life. Inextricably drawn to each other, their desire soon leads to a passionate encounter. Gabe’s fears of abandonment and his domineering personality, along with Mia’s own fears of attachment, threaten to derail his attempts to ensure she becomes his, heart body and soul. Despite Mia’s reticence, Gabe Austin’s a guy who is used to getting what he wants. Just as he seems to have won Mia around, he goes and does something that could ruin everything.

This is a debut fictional novel for C.J. Fallowfield and combines erotica with romance and humour.

♥♥♥♥♥REVIEW BY MAZZY BOSS LADY♥♥♥♥♥

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

♦♦♦♦ I received an arc in exchange for an honest review ♦♦♦ 

♥♥♥♥♥Wow upon wow this author can write some steamy scenes and this is the debut book from this author, she has incredible talent.

This was the most fantastic book, I have read. I was engrossed right from the start.

Has all the elements in a book that you need, from sexiness to angst.

Mia has abandonment issues and will not let anyone get close to her, even staying a virgin all this time. Until Gabe, beautiful sexy Gabe, deciding on a no strings affair. 

Will that really work out?

Lexi, the foul mouthed, straight talking girl, I like her as she doesn't give a shit, but like Mia she is damaged and deals with it the opposite to Mia. Full of one night stands, but how will that end?

This story was great, the sex was sizzling, hot, steamy, the writing impeccable.

There is a cliffhanger and that leaves you wanting more, I need more now, I need to know what happens next to the trio! ♥♥♥♥♥








About me:

I am a 44 year old female from the United Kingdom and live in the wonderful countryside of Wales, surrounded by rolling hills, trees and fields full of sheep and cows. My writing companion is my adorable black cat, who forces me to take regular breaks from tapping away on my keyboard by sprawling across it for a sleep, or nudging my hand to let me know she needs some love, and I can never resist.

Inside I still feel like a teenager, as I laugh at pretty much everything, even when I shouldn’t, which often gets me very strange looks in the cinema. I love cats, pizza, Ben & Jerry’s and sway between Dairy Milk and Galaxy chocolate, never able to decide which is my favourite. I love reading books myself and as a super speedy reader I can devour a book a night and love many different types ranging from children’s literature like Harry Potter and Artemis Fowl (see, still a kid at heart), to classical literature like Little Women, Grimm’s Fairy tales, crime books especially Agatha Christie and downright saucy erotica. My music taste is just as eclectic.

I am a huge movie fan, favouring action adventure films and adore American TV shows, my all-time favourites from years gone by being Prison Break, Alias, Buffy & Angel, One Tree Hill, Smallville & 24. My top three celebrity hunks, who often help inspire me to write the lust and passion for my heroes in my novels, are Gabriel Macht, Jensen Ackles and Stephen Amell. On my current TV planner, priority is given to Suits, Supernatural, Arrow, Castle, The Blacklist, NCIS LA, Hawaii Five-0, The Following, The Vampire Diaries and there are far too many others to mention. Come to think of it, when do I have time to work or read, let alone write!

My favourite quote in life, something I try to live by myself, is: 




I love to hear from my readers, you can leave a post on my guest book, or Facebook page or contact me via Goodreads.

Happy reading!
