I really enjoyed Unbound,  Lauren Hawkeye's second installment in the Uninhibited serial. With their chemistry burning even hotter, Jasper and Cari were even sexier and more in tune with their emotions towards each other. I could not get enough and can't wait for the third installment.

With the sexual intensity very strong between them, Cari and Jasper's emotional connection develops and we see that their feelings for each other and their trust are developing past the physical. Add in the growing escalation of the violence against Cari and this novel was on fire! Will they find the person targeting Cari? Read part three to find out!

I would like to thank NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for an advanced copy of this book! Bravo ! 4 stars! ~Ratula

This is Part 2 in the Uninhibited Series. We catch up with Cari and Jasper as the window shatters in Cari’s hotel room. This continues the story of the threats against Cari and how Jasper is trying to guard her. He is also trying to solve the mystery of who’s trying to get rid of her. This is a good series but we still have to read Part 3 to get our good ending. So I’m off now to read the last book and find out who the bad guy is! I voluntarily read and reviewed this book that I received from Netgalley.

Unbound by Lauren Hawkeye is the second novella in the Uninhibited series. It’s rather short, so be prepared for that when you read. You’ll also want to be sure to have read part one, Untamed prior to reading Unbound, as this picks up right where Untamed left off.

Cari Dunn is on site at a dig for her TV show, and it’s obvious someone doesn’t want her there. What started as pranks seem to be escalating, and the show isn’t taking any chances, so Cari has a super, sexy bodyguard, Jasper. Jasper and Cari have discovered that they really ‘Dig’ each other. (Okay, bad pun, I know.) When we last left our steamy couple, they had not only had a 3-way dance with another super-hottie named Jackson whose dance would have gotten them kicked off DWTS for sure! Jasper was so turned on watching Cari with Jackson, he took her back to the room and they started their own type of dance.

Unfortunately, this gets interrupted with a bit of a brick through the window action. This is where we start. So...Our muscle-bound hero takes Cari to his room so he can investigate the matter, but Cari just won’t stay put. Hmmm...How can he make her stay? I’m not telling, but imagine the sizzle when a drop of water hits a hot iron. Yep, that hot! Then our intrepid hero decides to explain all to Cari about why he’s single. It seems he has a kink that most women find a bit difficult to live with full-time. Curious? It’s in here, and it’s oh-so yummy! Of course, the cliffy sets us up for the third and final installation of the series, Undone. Luckily, you’ll only have a week to wait for it!

Amount of sex 4 / 5
How explicit 3.5 / 5
Story 4 / 5
Overall: 4 / 5

Unbound is the second book in the three-part Uninhibited series by author Lauren Hawkeye. This is not a standalone, so you need to read Untamed first.

This story begins right where we were left off. Jasper is still protecting Cari and the two have become closer both physically and emotionally. Jasper informs Cari of some of his sexual interests and she needs to decide if she’s on board with it! Will Cari decided to go for it? Can Jasper still protect her?

Looking forward to the third part in the series!!

I didn't love this installment as much. I felt like there wasn't enough movement with the plot, and out heroine was kind,of a mess. I wanted her stronger and smarter.

the second part in the uninhibited series, unbound, goes full on sexy with cari and jasper. as the danger to cari escalates, so does the sexual tension.

when things reach the breaking point, jasper brings cari to her knees only the way he can. and if he has a little help from his friend, jackson, well, all the better. this is a quick, very hot read. it continues the stalker story without giving away where things will end, but also ramps up the tension to the mystery and the tension between cari and jasper to steam-worthy levels.

out of the three parts, this is probably the sexiest and the hottest. nothing wrong with that, in my book.

ARC received for review

Picks up right where part 1 ended. There's a little more with the danger surrounding her at the beginning and the end. The middle is more sexy times that include a menage.

Book two in the Uninhibited series holds its own Cari is now debating the fact that having any relations with her body guard probably is not what she should be doing, however there is no turning back. The threats are becoming more serious and they are trying their best to think with their heads to stay one step ahead. Backup is called and the relationship becomes interesting.

You will not want to miss anything in this series and book one should be read first.

Book 2 in the Uninhibited Series and holy hot hell this one is a scorcher. Ladies cold showers are in order after this read.

Book two picks up right where book one ends with the protective, ever vigilant Jasper in full body guard mode and to keep Cari safe because she's pretty feisty and refuses to stay in the room, he uses his belt to tie her to a pillar in his room. He promises to return and wow does he ever. These two have a chemistry that oozes right off the pages. As things get more personal Jasper opens up a little to Cari, meanwhile still micromanaging her safety. She trusts him. Obviously Cari has a stalker who has no problem intimidating the hell out of her, yet we have little clue as to who it might be.

Lauren writes such a great story and book three is up next and to be released very quickly after book two. Don't hesitate to buy these! I highly recommend them. Grab your fan, a very cold drink and a panty change and enjoy this fantastic story!

This was a super hot, quick read that left me wanting more! I didn't read the book previous to this, but I dove right in and was not disappointed

Cari and Jasper have heat to spare and it crackles off the pages and zaps you hard. Super sexy!!

Unbound picks up where untamed leaves off. Cari and Jasper hear up the pages and all the while the stalker is getting closer and more dangerous.

There is another cliff hanger to this one but we are left with some very steamy pages thanks to Jasper calling in back up to help give Cari the things she never knew she wanted or needed. Can't wait for the next one.

See feedback for part one as to why I didn't bother with part 2. Sorry.

Naughty girl...

My inner bad girl is loving the hot, filthy things that Cari is getting into. I think it's safe to say that she is also jealous. Unbound is the second part of this series and it will leave you smirking just as much as the first.

I still need to say it... sign me up for this security detail...ASAP!

Cari and Jasper continue to burn up the pages in the second installment of this serial. Gotta love some Jackson, too. There's also a little bit of suspense added to give this story substance. Can't wait to see how this ends!!

Unbound, the 2nd book in the Uninhibited series by Lauren Hawkeye picks up where Untamed, book 1 ended. This book is filled with suspense, threats, danger, a stalker, sizzling chemistry, and a whole lot of passion.

I volunteered to review an advanced readers copy of this book.

Fans self, holy heck it just gets hotter round here. Jasper is determined to protect Cari from the dangerous threat. Of course, there's down time for his special brand of kink.

Was this review helpful?

The danger and the kink both heat up in Unbound as Cari and Jasper continue to try to discover who is behind her attacks. This is part two of the three part Uninhibited serial series.
I know I've been reading what feels like a lot of serials of late, but I have to admit I am enjoying these short sexy reads from Entangled's Scorched line. It helps that the books come out only a week apart so it's not a long wait between books.
Cari and Jasper don't get very far as they try to uncover who is after her but they do start to connect more and get to know each other better.
I'm liking getting to know Jasper. He's a man of so many layers. There's the solid, dependable bodyguard who is alert and hard-eyed. There's the geek who loves sci fi and also the man who likes control and kink. I'm enjoying every little thing I discover about him.
Cari is rightfully angered about what's happening to her. This seems to be bringing out her more confrontational side and I'm enjoying seeing her stand up for herself against a rather misogynistic male. I'm liking the feisty side to her personality that I'm seeing.
Of course, while Cari and Jasper get away for some sexy times (Jackson is a nice addition for some hot menage action), the danger surrounding Cari continues to escalates and we are left with another cliffhanger at the end of this installment to the serial. I recommend you have part three handy so you know what's going to happen next. I'm diving in.
