Mallory and Oz brought good depth to this book. It's a full length novel from this duo and it was done really well. Smutty like usual, and who would complain about that?! No one I hope! It's just more than their usual. It's what I wanted. More story. Stalkerish at times but I'm ok with it as long as it is Oz!! It had a couple of twist that I hadn't expected! I also enjoyed the secondary characters and I can't wait for more!

Whoa, Alexa Riley has release a new book, Everything For Her, and it is HOT! Every reader will need to read it cause it is a fantastic romance story plus there are some hot steamy sex scenes too.
Everything for Her is the first book in the series. It will tell Mallory and Oz love story. Mallory is starting off new in a new city and a new job since she graduated from college. While she is settling, she meets sexy man named Oz. And they definitely hit it off. They have hot and insane chemistry between each other that it will make you hot and bothered. But Oz is hiding something from her.
Oz is a nickname for Miles who owns the company that Mallory starting to work for. What Mallory does not know is Miles is obsessed with her. He is completely in love with her that he helped her receive help from the beginning. It may be little (or alot) crazy to do for someone. But Miles loves her so much that he will help her in anyway possible and make her realize that they are meant to be.
Everyone knows not all plans plan out which includes Miles plans for Mallory. They are going to face some rough patch but true love always conqueror. They will definitely work their things out but it will take a lot of communication and trust to do so.
Miles and Mallory are going to face challenges but they are definitely meant to be since they have the hots for each other. They have insane attraction that their scenes together are very hot and steamy that it will make blush.
Everything for Her is a fantastic romance read that you will want to read all day since it has funny moments and sweet heartwarming moments too. Five Stars!

EVERYTHING FOR HER was my first Alexa Riley book and I was excited to dive in to see what everyone was raving about. Unfortunately, the writing didn't grab me from the very beginning which made it hard to keep focused on the story. Aside from that, I didn't get a good feeling about the hero from the get-go and he turned me off real quick which made it difficult to want to keep reading. This book didn't work for me, but I'm sure it'll work for others.
Shannon C’s review of Everything for Her by Alexa Riley
Contemporary romance published by Carina Press on 27 Dec 16
I should have known better. A few weeks back on Twitter, I asked Sybil to recommend Harlequin lines I should be reading. Somewhere in that Twitter exchange, she said, “Well, duh, of course I’m not going to rec you any Harlequin Presents. You won’t like them.” She’s right, of course. And I’m sure that, if she’d looked at the blurb for this book, she’d have said, “Don’t do it, Shannon. You won’t like it.” And, again, she would have been right. Because I sure didn’t.
Alexa Riley is the writing pen name for a couple of women who are hilarious and awesome to follow on Twitter. Their specialty is over-the-top insta love and alpha males. Some of their novellas have worked really well for me, and some of them haven’t, so I was curious about what would happen if I read their first attempt at a novel.
When Miles, our hero, spots Mallory, she’s seventeen and kicking ass at a high school math competition. He falls hard for her and decides she will be his. For the next five years, he basically orchestrates every aspect of her life so that eventually she will meet him and he can claim her.
Miles–or Oz, as Mallory calls him after their first meeting–is a sociopath. I hated him. In a novella-length story, there wouldn’t be enough page time to question why he was super obsessed with this girl he saw for like five minutes. But this is a full-length novel, and much of what I read was from Mallory’s perspective. Mallory, poor lamb, may be super book smart, but as far as real life goes, she’s dumb as a post. She’s charmed that Miles is into her so much, but the reader is well aware of his machinations. Occasionally she would question things like why the cafeteria would suddenly have better food after she complained to Oz about it, or why he had known that she didn’t set her alarm one morning. Every time she did, I got the feeling I always get when watching horror movies… the one where I just know the heroine is going to go down into the basement with the serial killer and all the shouting in the world won’t keep it from happening.
At one point, when even her best friend starts acting weird, I had to skim for spoilers, and I realized that Oz had engineered that friendship, too. Mallory basically had nowhere safe to be where some lackey of his wasn’t spying for him. I kept thinking, “This isn’t romantic. This is domestic abuse.” And I eventually gave up about halfway through.
I realize the over-the-top possessive alpha is a legit fantasy for many readers, and it’s certainly worked for me in other Alexa Riley reads, but those were novellas. This was a longer story, and so it was all super gross. I hated it, and wouldn’t recommend.
Grade: DNF
This long awaited full-length book from AR was definitely worth the wait. They smashed it!
AR are the best when it comes to full on ALPHA'S and again they don't disappoint. We have Oz the guy who has been looking out for Mallory for a long while. This book was sugar sweet which was exactly what we come to expect from our favourite duo.
It's a fairytale, Oz see's Mallory from afar when she is only 17 and hello insta-love, he then decides to become her fairy godfather and basically looks out for her until the time is right. Meanwhile Mallory has no clue. There is some drama to overcome as is needed in this type of book and Mallory needs to get over a few issues when she finds out the depth of who Oz is.
i'm looking forward to more of Paige, Mallory's best friend.
The day has finally come! A full length novel by Alexa Riley. Hallelujah.
Alpha male ✔
Over the top possessive ✔
Dude just might be a stalker ✔
I loved Oz. I loved how the moment he met Mallory he knew that she was the one.
I liked that she was pretty much his world. But at time I felt like he was taking it a little too far, but at the same time I liked it.
Mallory was so sweet and such a sweetheart. I liked that she actually had a personality and made decisions for herself. And with this book being a full length novel you actually go a read on the character.
Of course this book actually has a plot and isn't all smut. Mallory might be endanger and Oz needs to save her.
Overall, this is my favorite AR book to date. I'm excited for the next book in the series, which is Mallory's best friends book. I can't wait to get more on her character.
This book checked all of my requirements I want in my hero.

5 Stars!
I was pulled right into this story. They have laughs, lust, love and forever.
This is Mallory and Miles's story. Mallory has worked hard to get where she is. She believes she has everything she ever wanted. Miles has made sure he set everything up so she would be his. He knows everything about her and everything he does is to pull her in and get her to fall for him. But what if he is pushing to far or seems just a little bit crazy about things he knows. Can she handle that? Can she handle is obsessive nature that boarders on stalker/creeper? Can Miles let up a little in order to keep Mallory or will he lose her?
I recommend this book and anything by this author.
4.5 stars
Everything for Her was everything I was hoping for and more.
The writing was well done, the characters Mallory and Miles/Oz captured my interest and had me turning the pages late into the night. It was one of those reads you just couldn't put down, I couldn't wait to see how things would unfold.
Was Oz going to get his girl??
From the first few pages I knew I was going to have a love/hate well not hate exactly, maybe conflicting relationship with Miles/Oz character.
I loved how passionate, caring, loving and determined he was about Mallory. He had everything I love in an alpha male and totally won me over.
Then there were times it was just a little too much and borderline stalkerish.
BUT I didn't let my brain overanalyze it and just went with it, he had convinced me of his love and determination to be in Mallory's life.
She was his everything and he was going to do anything and everything to make sure of this.
Watching their relationship unfold brought out all the feels, I loved their late night conversations and all day text messages, it warmed my heart watching them connect and fall in love.
And did I mention how hot these two were?
No? well their chemistry was off the charts!!
Overall, Everything for Her was a captivating, sexy and entertaining read with strong characters that will take you on an emotional roller coaster and leave you with a smile on your face.
I also loved/enjoyed the secondary characters, they added to my overall enjoyment of Everything for Her.
I have a serious girl crush on Paige, Mallory's BFF. Loved that girl and can't wait to read her and Ryan's aka Captain's book next in His Alone coming in March 2017.
In closing, if your in the mood for a hot and steamy read then I highly recommend Everything for Her by Alexa and Riley.

Alexa Riley is back and hotter than ever with their brand spanking new, standalone, first full length novel with their most obsessed alpha to date. I was expecting big things for those book since they are known for quick, dirty and over the top. I am happy to say that these two ladies... DELIVERED.
Captivating and addicting, AR have me romance that topped my top list of the year. Everything for Her was a sexy, sweet, intense, passionate, and ridiculously over the top romance that made my toes curl and my heart beat a little bit faster. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time i devoured this book. I couldn't get the pages to turn any faster... as this book consumed me from cover to cover.
Oz/Miles.... sweet and crazy obsessed Miles. I loved every part of this man. He intrigued me the start and I instantly knew i would root for him... and Mallory. Together they were electric, magnetic, and hypnotizing.
Their story was spellbinding. It was EVERYTHING. Get ready for a classic AR journey with a twist or two along the way.
I highly recommend this book.
In this full length novel, Alexa Riley delivered a hot, intriguing and passionate story that you will not be able to put down. The choice of city, the characters- everything was well thought to once again provide the readers with a hot, steamy story . with a hot billionaire.
"I’ve wanted to care for and protect her since the first moment I saw her. I’ve constructed everything in our lives so that at the perfect moment, I could have her, could give her the life she deserves."
Miles and Mallory are meant to be and Miles is going to do everything for it to happen.
Instalove! HEA guaranteed!
