Review

Ahh! I am really trying to think of where to begin. I read this book months and months ago. It just really stayed with me and left me with the worst book hangover EVER! It is rare that I am left speechless. In this case , it is mostly because I have so much to say.

Night Owl is Matt and Hannah’s story.  Their story of lust, love, addiction and all the angsty bits in between.  Matt meets Hannah through an online writing forum.  He simply wants a writing partner.  Nothing more.  He wants their relationship to remain strictly professional with no personal information being divulged but by pure accident Matt sees a picture of Hannah on her online profile and things quickly escalate.

“Night.Owl: So what are you wearing?
Little.Bird: Lol! All the walls are coming down tonight…
Night.Owl: Haha. God, sorry. I have no idea why I just typed that. Ignore that. Such a creeper right now.”

Matt cannot stop thinking about Hannah.  He becomes obsessed; addicted to her.  Online chats become phone calls and phone calls become a relationship.  He cannot stop.

“I felt a throb between my legs. I glared down at my Cock. Hold your fucking horses, I muttered. God…fuck was this seriously my life? Stalking a girl I’d met online, parked outside her house at midnight, speaking to my dick?”

I love Matt Sky. No, seriously, I LOVE him. He is the ultimate book boyfriend. He is damaged, and real, and gritty, and he talks dirty, and he is simply magnificent! His neediness, social awkwardness, and filthy mouth make for a heady combination. He just felt so real to me.  How can he be so much a little boy and an alpha dominant at the same time? It just melts my heart. Sighs. M. Pierce, you wrote Matt beautifully. I found my most favorite book boyfriend ever. Lets not skip over Hannah, though, because she makes Matt who he is and I almost love her with as much fervor. Hannah is strong in the wake of Matt’s weakness.  She makes Matt better and let’s face it; she is the heroine of this story.  I think after maybe my tenth read of this book, I finally stopped focusing so much on the delicious Matt and really zoned in on Hannah.  She builds Matt up and she brings him low.  She really is the master of Matt’s fate.  Her character made me feel proud as a woman; taking what she wanted from Matt but not settling for less than what she deserves.  Then her rescuing him, saving him from himself, really sealed the deal.  She is the ultimate woman lead; strong, stable, kind, and loving.

“You are always deceiving me. Always, Matt, always speaking to me from any mouth but your own. Don’t you know that I love you? I see under all your lies, and I always find you.”

I feel like I need to touch on Matt and Hannah’s sexual chemistry for a bit.  It was a huge part of this book and not like you think.  There wasn’t tons of sex just for the sake of having a sex scene.  Matt and Hannah’s raunchy and emotion provoking sex was written to make you feel something. To make you connect and understand these characters and their needs.  To make them understand each other.  Don’t get me wrong, this book was dirty but the way it was written was erotic and sensual.  It didn’t feel gross or crass.  Matt demands and Hannah obeys and all through the filthy talk and kinky sex all you feel is strong passion and love.

Night Owl was my absolute favorite book of 2013.  If you haven’t noticed from this review, I would give it a million stars if I could.  Few books have the ability to reach in and touch me so deeply.  The characters are likeable, yet flawed. The writing is emotional, erotic, and thought provoking.  This book will have you entranced; turning the pages in a lustful and romantic haze, and leaving you wanting more, more, more.

“I never want to learn how to say goodbye.”
