To Want Her (Natexus Book 3) Kindle Edition

by Vicki James (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 87 ratings
Every woman wants a bad boy. Too bad for me, I’d somehow become the resident nice guy. But not for long…

Five weeks after being dumped, I, Marcus Anderson, had to admit that my life had become a mess, filled with one-night stands, too much alcohol, and the odd fight thrown in for good measure.

Then along came Danni Marsden. The best friend of my ex, with the infectious smile, the hotshot model career, and that unwavering determination to make me live again. The girl I couldn’t have and shouldn’t want. The girl who had started to make it clear that she wanted me, too.

It turned out that I was the night and she was the day. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn’t stop coming back to each other.

It was time to show Danni and the rest of the world what happened when the good guy turned bad for the right woman.

I had to have her.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Marcus is the man
    Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    4.5 stars. Marcus Anderson has this personality that is larger than life. No exaggeration. It can be overwhelming and possibly bulldozing for a lesser, insecure person. If I had met him before Alex, then Marcus could be my #1 in this series. But he came second and yet I adore Marcus anyway. He's rebuilding himself, taking a hard look at who he is on the inside and taking it from there. Marcus definitely struggles with figuring all of this out because it's not easy to come to terms with where his life has failed and how to move forward. When he used to talk about his one big love of his life (before Natalie), I thought that maybe he needed to revisit her. And then she gets introduced in the book. I have to say, Victoria L James had me on the edge of my seat in those scenes, I felt like I was chewing on glass with how uncomfortable I was, thinking that if the book went in a certain direction, I might have to give up on it completely because I couldn't handle the idea of a desperate Marcus. He had already been there. He sees how happy Natalie is with Alex and while he's happy for her, he's still hurting. Then she shows up - the perfect girl for Marcus. He doesn't see it yet and neither does she, but the moment she appeared on the page, I just knew she was the one he had been waiting for. She helped pick himself back off the floor and find purpose and no matter how far away she went, she was still always there for him. Marcus is the guy to call in a crisis, so having someone who had his back was completely new and foreign to him, but she never let him down. I absolutely loved them and their chemistry together. It was everything he needed and deserved, as well as for her. And another bonus, Marcus and Alex even became friends so there's quite a bit of Natalie and Alex in the story as well. Definitely a worthwhile read.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The writing is phenomenal
    Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2019

    Despite reading this book or of order and despite already knowing how this story ended it didn't interrupt the flow of Danni and Marcus and how their love grew. Alex and Natalie ensure that Marcus is not pushed out of the group and include him in their social scene, despite Marcus feeling a little depressed and lonely. Marcus is even invited along on the group's break when they journey to Greece to stay with Danni who is seeking her dream of becoming a model. Danni sees Marcus potential even is he doesn't and things go back and forth between them. When Alex and Marcus almost die in an accident both men decide life is too short to not tell the person they love the most how much they do. Marcus just hopes third time is lucky.

    Marcus the fun loving sexy ex is as charming as he is addictive. An emotional journey of this deeply scarred man with a good sprinkling of cheekiness. Loved the secondary characters of Cameron who enriched the story and the holiday scenes in Greece. I loved Marcus from Natexus and All the Way so I thoroughly enjoyed seeing his story unfold. A true diamond in the rough.

    This was such good book. I read this before I read Natexus, so my perspective on the characters was free from background knowledge. I not only enjoyed the entire premise of the story, the characters (Marcus makes me swoon), the settings, but the writing itself is so good you don’t want the book to end.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Real. Raw. The perfect follow up to Natexus

    Real. Raw. The perfect follow up to Natexus

    Victoria L James is an enchantress of words, just when you think you have figured out her style, her characters and the direction she is taking you, she reaches in to her mind and puts you further under her spell.
    When I was reading Natexus I felt that Marcus was a little bit foolish, that he was setting himself up for a fall. But you see we were manipulated into to thinking this was the case when in fact he knew what he was doing all along.
    Marcus is a unique read in that he didn’t become bitter by his past experiences of which you must read Natexus to fully understand his journey to this point. In fact he fully embraced the experience he had had, and learned from it, used it to move forward and build a life he felt he now deserved. A life he felt he had earned. He was looking for his person. His person, not someone else’s person, his person.
    And we wanted him to get the life he deserved, he was tempted by the past once more but ultimately he knew he had to but the past behind him and focus on his future.
    Marcus is the sort of man that although living through his own kind of hell, never once allows that to show on the outside, he is always warm, friendly, thoughtful and always seems to consider others needs before his own. He sounds perfect, right? The insight into his mind was so well written that you forget that there is a devilish little blonde behind those words. So clever is she that before you realise it Marcus has wormed his way into your heart and all you can think about his him. He is serious book boyfriend material.
    I cannot recommend this series enough, Nataxus is a tough journey to take but worth the heartache and finally the enlightenment it brings. Marcus is easier to read in some ways because he is just so damn delicious, but I don’t want you to think that this somewhat takes away from the fact that all the characters in this book have a purpose, there are no passengers. Some we revisit from Natexus, others are new, some come to the forefront and become more to us than they once were and with good reason. The Viking and Danni, Alex and Natalie to name but a few who will surprise you on this journey.
    I could babble on and on but ultimately what I am trying to say is this, if you want to take a chance on a series by an author you haven’t read before, this is the one worth your time, you will not regret reading anything by this author. In fact once you start reading books by this author you will plough your way through everything she has published, join the J-Team and make some amazing friends along the way.
    Buy Marcus, every home should have one!

    Some female writers just can’t write male characters that well. This author couldn’t pull it off. Her main character sounded like a woman wrote the dialogue. She made him seem very weak. Had to quit at 4%.

    No one can express love as good as Victoria S. James can! She's a genius with words. I'm absolutely fangirling here, but when you read this book you will fall in love with the men in this series and you'll wish for someone to love you soo deep and hard, like Marcus loves his woman. Maybe Cam and Sammy need a book, too.....

    5.0 out of 5 stars It's hard to write a review worthy enough.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 1, 2017
    Verified Purchase
    Seriously guys, forgive me if this review makes zero freakin' sense. I have at least a hundred different emotions swirling around in my head, fighting to break free, and I have no idea where to start.

    If you're reading/read or considering buying Marcus then chances are you've already read Natexus? Maybe even All The Way?

    If not, why?

    Anyway, I'm going to take it as you've already read Natexus, therefore you know what happened and your memory of said book it still very much vivid. The feels? The ugly tears? The sleepless nights you endured after flipping over that final page? It's there, right? All of it.

    Don't worry, I get it. I sooooooooo, get it!

    But let me tell you something. If you thought you would get off lightly with this one then you are dead wrong.

    I adore this author. She's crazily talented and knows all the right words that are capable of hitting you right in your poor, defenceless heart.

    She's brutal—in a good way, of course.

    In Marcus, there are no feels that go unnoticed. The pain? You feel it. Right where it hurts the most. The love? You can't hide from it. It's there. Strong, passionate and unlikely. The tears? Inevitable. Always, inevitable.

    Did I mention that he's mine?

    Well he is.

    Marcus is mine.

    Yeah, I totally called dibs on him way back when and there isn't a chance in hell I'm giving him up. (Na Na Na Na Na)

    I had a massive soft spot for Marcus in Natexus. I wanted him to be happy. I wanted someone to love him with the kind of intense love that he gave. But I had no idea what was in store for him next and I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't freakin' scared going into this one.

    I was.

    I really was.

    Victoria L. James ripped my heart out yet again, stomping on it with her tiny little feet when it was at it most weakest. She very beautifully placed it back where it belonged, though, only to shatter it into a gazillion pieces all over again.

    I was on a never ending, emotional train ride. Not even a smooth, slightly bendy, train ride, but one of those loop da bloody loop Thomas the Tank Engine tracks that my 5 year old has. Not excluding the sheer drop that assaulted my heart to the point of no return.

    With that being said, the journey was one that I won't be forgetting in a hurry.

    Victoria's words are something of a beauty that is extremely rare to come across. Compelling. Gut-wrenching. But absolutely stunning.

    Did Marcus get his happily ever after?

    You'll have to see for yourselves.

    A beautiful and emotional story that shouldn't be ignore.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An exceptional story of extrondinary love. Marcus stole my heart .
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 5, 2017

    Damn. Damn, damn, damn, damn. I didn’t want to love Marcus with as much passion as I loved Alex, but gawd I just couldn’t bloody help it. This man, this journey, this love, reached into my chest & squeezed my heart so tight, I wasn’t quite sure if I would survive.

    Marcus has a heart as deep & as giving as the universe. He has a beautiful soul, a gorgeous spirit & enough love to give in 10 life times & then some. I hated how his past had him convinced that he was destined to be second best, that his happiness was secondary & loving someone so completely was too much, because seriously, this man could love the bones outta me & I would never EVER get sick of it.

    Then we have Danni, now this is a girl with fire in her soul & passion in her veins & quite simply, she rocked my world. Spirited, sexy, sassy & spunky, I seriously grinned right along with her so many times, that my cheeks actually ached. I loved how focused & driven she was, yet equally how self aware & soft her soul was. She shines & sparkles with her entire essence & I was so glad, her love & passion was enough to rival that of Marcus, because they both deserved an extraordinary life full of extraordinary love.

    I didn’t think Victoria could beat Natexus, I mean, that book, Alex & Nat, it was epic on every frickin level, so I went into this story never once expecting the sucker punch that this one delivered. But absolute credit to the phenomenal writing, exceptional character portrayal & development & the stunning way every ounce of emotion that was poured into these pages, could be inhaled, touched & lived. My tears flowed, my breath caught, my heart broke, but some how I smiled, against all the odds I laughed & then as this pair stole half my heart, I was slowly put back together again, albeit not quite complete. All was right in my world, location ~ somewhere in Leeds Uk, where these people have fast become my people in every single way.

    An extraordinary story of love from an author who has undoubtedly secured her place as one of my unicorns.

    Aaaaand she has smashed it...again! What a fantastic read.

    I was super excited for this story, I loved Marcus in the Natexus book.
    I'm not gonna lie I was a teeny tiny bit apprehensive going in just in case he turned out to be nothing like I expected...I needn't have worried a bit. He has exceeded my expectations, Marcus is a bloody diamond.

    Victoria L James weaves a tale so brilliant that as a reader you cannot help but be sucked from your favourite reading nook and plonked slap bang into the middle of her world.
    This story takes you on a journey that you have no clue where it will lead but you are desperate to follow.

    I can't say too much about the story without giving away the plot but I will say that this book is packed full of all kinds moments. It's got sweet moments, there's laugh out loud moments, it has 'oh no!! Please, God, Noooooo!!' moments ( I may have had to put it in the freezer a la Joey, but couldn't resist and took it back out almost immediately) there's also some swoony & be still my lil' black heart moments. Each and every moment is beautifully encapsulated in this incredibly talented ladys gorgeous words.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again and again and again I truly adore Ms James' work. I always become immersed in and consumed by her every word and they only keep getting better. I would read anything and everything she writes, her to do list, her shopping list, whatever! I just know it'll be EPIC... End. Of!
