I was given Lara’s Last Journey for an honest review by Manic Readers

Lara has been dreaming of an Ottoman Prince for some time and on the night of her best friend’s wedding she has a dizzy spell and crashes her? She wakes up 492 years in the past to the very Prince she has been dreaming about. With no way to get back to her time she sets out to acclimate to life with her dream man.

Pasha Suleyman finds his dream woman in his bed and can’t control his desire for her only to find that she belongs in the future and he has no intentions of letting her go.

Lara’s Last Journey was a pretty fast read with some steaming bedroom and bath scenes. I think Mya Larose has a very creative imagination but her editing of her work is leaving me cold and messing with her stories.

This time the editing was so bad that I lost count after awhile, and some of the mistakes were so huge that it will be hard for most readers to over look including the part where she says she is from 2013 and then later she says 2014. And two of the worst one in my opinion was the following two paragraphs.

Those two words from him made me instantly wet. That man could say anything and her pussy would unleash her sweet nectar.

She jumped slightly, “Suleyman! I don’t need a woman servant. I can occupy himself when you’re away.” She frowned.

If Lara’s Last Journey is ever edited, I would like a chance to re-evaluate it as I do think that Mya is very creative and does deserve the chance to change my rating.

Zara Miller considers herself a full-figured woman who had a disastrous relationship with her first boyfriend; and add to that she has a mother who can resist making her feel bad about her weight. When she is accidently ran over by her hotty of a next door neighbor he becomes her fantasy man when she whips out her battery powered boyfriend. She is sure he wouldn’t want a woman like her so she avoids him. But with her best friend egging her on she decides to quit running and give him a chance.

Peter Adames has it really bad for his sexy next-door neighbor but she won’t even give him the time of day. Then one morning he discovers he is out of coffee, now all bets are off and he is going to borrow coffee from her and make his move.

Over all I did like Zara’s Second Chance’s main characters and the bedroom scenes were certainly rockin’ out he steam. The main character were well written but I am wondering what Mya could do with it, if she ever decided to expand the story to add more suspense when it came to the stalker, especially since the story was so focused on Zara and Peter is seemed like the stalker aspect was just tossed in for a touch of drama but it wasn’t. I think Claire’s involvement should have been a bit more prominent to add that drama and that Peter should have sensed she was stalking him.

I would have probably given Zara’s Second Chance a three-star rating but unfortunately there were enough editing issues that I can only give her a two-star rating but if Mya ever decided to update and fix those edits, I will be more than happy to re-evaluate this story.

Mya, please don’t take this as I don’t like Zara’s Second Chance because I actually do like the story line, instead take it as I know you can make it better.
