Not Until You (A Loving on the Edge Novel) Paperback – November 4, 2014

Wow. I was immediately immersed in this book from the first page to the last. This is the first book I've read by Roni Loren and I am now hooked. The writing is superb, it is great storytelling with making you have real heartfelt emotions for fictional characters. I even got goosebumps in different places throughout the book and tears too. I don't need to give you a synopsis of the book because you can easily get that I just want to share that you should read this book! I receive a lot of ARCs from author's to review and have even done some beta reading so I am a voracious reader and can say that this book is in my top 10 of all books read ever!

Dr. Marcela “Cela” Medina comes from a very conservative Mexican- American family. Her father has been grooming her since childhood to join his veterinary practice. He has her life all mapped out for her, including a house across the street so he can look out for her. Nevermind that she’s 24 and is totally capable of living her own life. Cela has always been the “good” daughter especially after watching her sister get disowned when she got pregnant as a teen and had an abortion. As she gets more involved with him, Cela struggles with his over-protection and desire for control. She already has enough people ordering her around, she doesn’t want another one! I really liked Foster, his company, and he was very respectful.It’s really sexy and very hot, Roni Loren has always handled sex scenes very well. It’s very sex-positive, no shame about being a submissive partner or about the Never Have I Ever game she plays with BOTH her neighbors. There are multiple explicit sex scenes including m/f/m intro game with Foster and Pike…melt your panties off hot lol! It also has ample BDSM, so if this is not your thing, consider yourself warned. This is an older novel (2013) but Roni Loren was one of the authors I recommended to beginner BDSM readers when Fifty Shades exploded. Cela enters into the relationship well informed with plenty of consent. It bounces between both POV, so we understand Foster’s protective side right away even if Cela doesn’t.It is a longer series (9 books) but each follows a different couple, so they can be read on their own although characters pop up in the latter books. I know some get more diverse. I believe a m/m/f is later in the series. in the paperback edition, there is also a short story of Bret, a Domme (female Dominant) and a male sub, so if you like some variety continue on after “Not Until You.”This was originally an online serial, so each part is about 40 pages, so this was a little long (360+ pages). As a result, it did get a smidge repetitive with Cela waffling between duty to her family and desire to stay in Dallas and be independent. I can understand her dilemma, but Foster made it an easy decision for me lol! I will definitely be continuing on, especially since I already own the series in paperback

Originally I purchased this in eight separate parts on Google playbooks. While I am a huge fan of Roni Loren's "Ranch", I always back up my ebooks with hard copies of the books. Its always nice to escape into a novel and have it lying on the nightstand to hold. If you liked 50 Shade's light BDSM backdrop, Roni Loren's club The Ranch will be for you. All of the Loving on the Edge novels center around the " guests" and 'employees' at the Ranch. Each book although centering on a specific couple, intermingle with other characters of other novels.

The book was just ok. I have never ever paid this much money for a book on my Kindle. I regret it. It unfortunately was not worth the hefty price tag. Don’t waste your money.

The story is great and I'm glad I read their story. I'm still not sure if this is book one in the series or another, but it was a standalone and a really good read. I read it in one day and that is rare for me.

Loved this book so much. Loved all the characters and the storyline. Loved the joking, laughter, drama and the learning of one's self. The discovery of coming into your own was awesome. The erotic scenes were amazing, just couldn't put this book down.

Well written book.

Love Roni Lorens books.. the Loving on the Edge series is a great read. Once I start a book, I cant put it down.
