I hate to rate this because I almost couldn't finish the book. It was difficult and trying, but I eventually did.

I knew it was a superhero book, but was hoping the writing and storyline would draw me in. It didn't. I also found their were way too much sex scenes. More substance please and a lot of threads that were left hanging and unfinished.

This author was knew to me so I was optimistic, but not sure if I would try another book by this author.

Wow,great new series!! Well written and a fast, great read. BOLT is the expanded version of - The Misadventures with a Super Hero. Reeve Richards the spoiled rich playboy,(in all the tabloid magazines) is also the super hero called,"BOLT". Emmalina Crist works at the hotel Reece owns. When they meet sparks fly! Can she handle dating/ romancing with the boss? Can she handle his secret? Can the secret kill her? Read the book and find out.Looking forward to the next volumes....
Bolt
Ignite
Pulse
Fuse
Surge
And more of her other great series!!

Bolt is sexy and full of sex. I love the idea of this sexy superhero who falls in love. But I feel like this book is all about sex. This couple cannot keep their hands off each other. There is a little bit of a story to tell, but it is drowned up with sex, that I am reading it little by little. I'm not sure if I will ever get back into finishing this book, but it is not for me. It is for readers who loves sex and lots of sex. Not for me, I want more of a story.

This book was just completely ridiculous. Not the man becoming a super hero, I can suspend disbelief for that. The "romance" was manufactured at best, and there was no real relationship to speak up. I'm still not sure what function Angelique plays in the story, but I don't care enough to read part 4 and find out.

I DNFed this at around 20%
I just couldn't do it. I'm fine with sex in a book, sometimes it even adds to the story itself and gives us another dimension of the characters. But this one, I just struggled so bad with it. The opening was intriguing, a man kidnapped by a goddess of a woman and subsequently ends up becoming a superhero because of something she did to him. That is interesting. I just felt that it was all ruined by the premature sex scene. Sure, add it in later on, when we've connected with the characters and it can add something to their budding relationship. Not when we've literally just met them.
This one, unfortunately wasn't for me, but give it a try, you may find it enjoyable where I didn't :)

Reece was the classic playboy. He had a trust fund, an endless supply of women, and the world at his fingertips. Then it all changed. One night and he was no longer that trust fund playboy but he finally had a purpose. Emma felt an instant connection to Reece. Saving her life was the icing on the cake as she sits enraptured by Bolt. Superhero at night and running a hotel by day. Great beginning to a wonderful series!

This book was good. It was disappointing to have the characters meet have sex and fall in love on the same night because of a connection they feel. It would be a lot better if he had to fight for her especially if he had a playboy background. The super hero piece was fun but it would have also been good if there's a chapter that explains what it feels like to have that energy and use it during a fight. Again good book would recommend to people who like superheroes that are looking for a romance.

I’ve been putting off reviewing because I’m unsure how to put my feelings into words. Bolt was a four star read for me, and I love Angel so it was not an easy four star. I just wanted more. More superhero, less sex. Which don’t get me wrong, the sex was great. I just didn’t connect with the characters as much as I would have liked. I’ve been Bolted, but I need more.

This was pretty adorable. The cover is a little bit deceiving as to what is inside but this was a super fun read. I loved the super hero take and the hidden identity, I haven't read a book like that before.

I'll definitely be finishing this series.

Loved this book. Reese and Emma have amazing chemistry that was electrifying and steamy. This was one of my first books and definitely will not be my last. Loved the passion and adventure that had me on the edge of my seat. Cannot wait to read more.

Loved this superhero story with a twist...Reece is the owner of a corporation and sexy to boot. One of his employees is blown away meeting him and when that meeting leads to the bedroom...wow! But what she doesn't know is that he is also the superhero called Bolt, but when he saves her life, he comes clean. Sparks fly and worlds collide. A fun, sexy romance, that you will enjoy completely!

I loved Reece Richards in Misadventures With A Superhero but with this book there is so much more to love!

This book is such an original read, I couldn't put it down. Sparks continue to fly between Emmaline Crist (Emma) and Reece.

Reece, typical rich playboy doesn't want to be tied down but the electrical pull to Emma can't be ignored.

Lots of fun and witty banter between them. It's a thoroughly enjoyable read for sure!

I absolutely love Reese’s story. Bolt was an unexpected super hero just trying to do his best every day. It’s action packed and I can’t wait to read the next in the series.

Ahhhh! I need more! I enjoy Angel Payne's books and this was no exception. Now I need to know how this ends! A great read, definitely recommend it.

This is a love story pure and simple with a little bit of fantasy on the side. There is plenty of sex if that is what you like but I found there was very little to this besides the love story. The characters are hot for each other and are constantly having sex but there is very little substance to their relationship. They say the right things to each other to make readers swoon but there really is no story here. I find it hard to believe that a girl trying to escape from a well-to-do family to help people, would choose to work in a hotel. There are lots of charitable jobs she could have chosen to truly help people. Also, falling into Bolts arms, who happens to be a billionaire isn't quite escaping her status. Quite frankly, there was little or no plot. It was not for me. Thank you to the publishers and NetGalley for giving me an ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review. The opinions expressed here are my own.

I am a fairly recent Angel Payne fan, having read the misadventures and secrets Il of stone series, which I enjoyed but this series is one I didn’t anticipate.

Of course there is a rich hot man in the picture, by any other name wouldn’t be as great. Reece Richards is a gorgeous hunk of a playboy alla Manwhore, Who flits around with nothing more than money and sex on the brain. But strange events change his life forever. (No spoilers) sorry.

No enter our heroine, she’s the daughter of a wealthy family. But has removed herself from that scene and found a job working at a hotel where she finds herself watching a news story about a masked superhero who’s named himself Bolt. She finds him very sexy, after she watches him disarm the assailants of a robbery.

She hasn’t met her boss aka the owner of the hotel yet but when she does sparks fly and it sets up the rest of the book.

It’s a DNM.

DO NOT MISS.

I received the free ARC for my honest review. Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley.

So this novel came as a surprise. I thought it be more superhero than the erotica that it turned out to be. While I enjoyed the hot sex practically written on every page, I was really hoping we see Bolt in more scenes of action than lover. While he played the tortured hero quite well I was emotionally zapped by the end of this. He became obsessed with having the heroine near him and although it was sweet how he came to love her, I thought the sex and the emotional baggage was over kill.
I thought the heroine was spunky but she got sucked into Bolts sexual desire and we barely got to really explore her character.
If you like your super heroes sexy with a ferocious sexual appetite this would be for you.

Thank you Netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

A great introduction to this series. Not normally my taste with science twist. Now I just need to finish the series. Well written.
