Canvas (QUAKE Book 5) Kindle Edition

Book 5 of 5: QUAKE

See all formats and editions

Joshua Dawson is my best friend's ex-boyfriend. That alone should be reason enough for me to keep my distance. Add in that he's a well mannered, loyal, hardworking artist and I should be running in the other direction.

He's damn near perfect, and I prefer my men hard to love and easy to leave. Josh's only flaw is he wants forever, and for the first time I might want the same. But loving someone doesn’t mean you deserve them.

He's all I want and everything I can't have.

This is a full length standalone friends to lovers romance.

Loved Canvas

Reviewed in Australia on 22 September 2017

I LOVED everything about Canvas
Jacob Chance has a knack of writing with such emotion, it is both beautiful and a heartfelt read.

Canvas follows the story of both Elle & Josh who you meet in Quake and Quiver. These 2 characters bring the angst and a whole lot of Sexual
Chemistry. Josh is the perfect man, Caring, Sexy and an Alpha where it counts. He just needs to make Elle see that he's worth the risk.

I love Elle's vulnerability, and I love that later we find out why she feels the way she feels. I just wanted to keep reading about these two, I didn't want Canvas to end. The detail, the emotion that went into Canvas is fantastic, I love a book written in Dual perspective and Jacob you nailed both of them. I had so many favourite parts throughout this book and I had a a real punch to the heart at one point when I felt for Elle but I'm not giving anything away you will have to read it and see for yourself.

Thoroughly recommend Canvas, this book will give you all the feels.

Josh and Elle for the win....

Reviewed in Australia on 22 October 2017

This was the my latest read from this author and yet again he impressed me.. His characters are easily relatable and his words flow effortlessly across the page.. From the cover to the contents you truly are moved into the world that is Josh and Elle... It took me a few chapters this time around to find my side that l usually take when heading into a new story... Elle was the one that l actually gravitated towards first, before the ever loving good guy Josh found a place in my heart... Having read Jacobs previous books where we see the connections with the other characters l found myself being more objective than normal trying to figure Elle out and also questioning what made Josh so bloody perfect..

Joshs easy nature and lack of complication makes you fall for him HARD.... He is steadfast in what he wants and has not only a deep sense of self but the added quality of being passionate about not only his art but also the people who mean something to him... He is determined and relentless,
and with a goal to have the girl that he loves it makes the read that much more enjoyable... Elle through her own admissions shows us a new side to her and as we understand her past you easily want to champion this head strong woman...As Elle opens herself up to not only Josh but the want to be with Josh you see a mutual vulnerability in both of them....

With the added twist of family plots and characters that ground them both this story makes you route for them to find a way to be together... The chemistry while always present really sizzles when both drop their guard and confide honestly their feelings for each other... The added few twists and turns made this a must read for me... As always Jacob Chance delivered..

This book blew me away with its mixture of sweet and sexy as sin tales

Reviewed in Australia on 21 September 2017

Hot off the press... This is my first ever read by Jacob Chance and I'm kicking myself that I've never introduced myself sooner. This book blew me away with its mixture of sweet and sexy as sin tales, thrown in with a mixture of suspense.

Josh and Elle are a perfect cocktail of high charge sexual tension and animosity. This blend leaves you panting for more, especially with Josh's delicious dirty mouth and Elle's reluctance to be with him. The chemistry was utter perfection and any lady will swoon over the kindness that Josh shows.

Reaching the happy ever after bit of the story will test their limits but it's so worth the slow burn wait. Hard choices need to made as their past collide which sets the scene of angst. Will Love prevail??? . I guess you have to get this and read it. I promise you won't be disappointed.

A blank canvas, a new beginning.

Reviewed in Australia on 21 September 2017

Canvas...the cover! Ooh my, it's perfectly fitting to a story dedicated to Joshua Dawson and Elle Johnson whom we met on several occasions in previous workings and includes some other favourite characters, especially a glimpse of my book boyfriend Kyle McKenzie that had me swooning all over again. That being said, I so have a secret soft spot for Josh.

Sweet dependable Josh has been harbouring some feelings for Elle for some time, but they seem to rub each other up the wrong way when they're in one another's presence. Joshua met Elle via his best friend Janny who he had a brief fling with, but she's now happily married to Kyle and he knows that it was never meant to be. Josh is a very talented artist and is busy getting his tattoo parlour business off the ground. Everything in his life seems to be falling into place except for the one thing or rather... the one girl he wants, Elle. Josh is a really good guy, but I detected some hidden depths within him and was intrigued to learn about his background considering the kind of gentle soul he is.

Elle Johnson. Wow, this young lady certainly thinks so little of herself! She has equally deep feelings for Josh but is afraid that she's not worthy of him; like she doesn’t deserve some happiness. Elle sells herself short and I think that is why she's previously just hooked up with guys. But josh is different. He sees her and that scares Elle. She does nothing but try to push him away. Elle is hard-working, beautiful and sassy and wants Josh despite of her inner turmoil.

Will these two finally give in to their feelings and decide to give it ago? I really hoped so because the abundance of chemistry and the deep connection they have enthralled me. And I most certainly couldn't argue that they'd make a steamy duo if they were able to pull it off. Theirs is a story overflowing with suspense and the edge of your seat curveball thrown my way simply made me think nothing about it was cut and dry. I always wondered why Elle was lacking in self-confidence; however, I got to discover the reasons when the past catches up.

Yet again, I was treated to a well-written flawless story full of romance, mystery and the steaminess in it literally bowled me over. This book isn’t just about hot scenes though. It's so much more, giving the reader a bigger insight into the lives of Josh and Elle. The dual narrative couldn't have been better as I like to know what each and everyone is thinking and in this story, there's never a dull moment. The angst in Canvas is as such that at times all I wanted to do was bang their heads together; nonetheless, I had endless faith in their creator. Would the author be able to make things right in my anticipation to find out what was in store for his protagonists? Mentioned earlier, we get a to meet up with characters from other books where Elle and josh appeared briefly. Canvas can be read a standalone as it gives us a whole lot more. Mr Chance is one of my favourite authors as he manages to entertain, captivate and one thing is for sure, his storytelling got me flipping the pages!

Was a different read for me from Jacob, his writing had definitely developed well over the years.

I really enjoy reading Elle and Josh story. I did get a bit frustrated by Elle at some point but at some point understood what’s causing her behavior. Josh is a deeper character as you might have suspected from the previous quake books. It’s a great story and I love seeing some of the characters from earlier books of the series.

This is just my second book by Jacob Chance, after reading "Penalty", a sports-related story earlier this year. Two books so different from each other – yet I found similarities in the writing. If I must rate, CANVAS wins the prize — only because it carries a deeper theme. Speaking of prizes, this cover is award-winning! While we’re on the subject, there is one particular part of the story that is reflected in the cover that makes it even more meaningful and relevant. Mr. Chance is on the fast track to becoming a favorite.

The Prologue begins the story five years in the past, where readers get a quick peek into an incident that marks and connects it to the present-day plot. When histories collide, any hope for a happily-ever-after may be in jeopardy.

He loves her — she doesn’t want to love him.

I suffered a bit from loving to hate Elle Johnson until I became a little more invested in her story. She is beautiful but bitchy — and she directs that bitchiness straight at Joshua Dawson. As Elle’s story unfolds, my heart broke for her. Not long after, I was in her corner cheering with all my might for her happiness. A victim of a disturbing past, Elle’s upbringing has left her cynical and secretive. Elle is somewhat of a man-eater. She sexes ‘em and leaves ‘em! No permanent ties for her. Sadly, she has built a wall around her heart. And it’s not only to protect herself, but Josh as well. She feels unworthy of his love and cares too deeply to involve him in her sordid past. When her past raises its ugly head once again, Elle’s nightmares arrive with a vengeance, and she does the only thing she knows how to do — she takes a powder.

Of course, Josh made it easy to fall head-over-heels in love with him at the first meet and greet. An artist by trade, he’s an all-around good guy – for real – the boy scout variety who dines with his grandma regularly. And he’s looking for the real deal – a happy home with a white-fence wrapped around it and, at the center, the woman of his dreams. But don’t be fooled by this description alone, because underneath lies another layer to Josh — a dominant side and he definitely knows how to use it. He has had struggles of his own in the past. His dad and older brother are members of a gang called the Bastards. With the help of his grandma, Josh has stayed clear of that lifestyle — even while sharing a relationship with both father and brother.

CANVAS is a standalone frenemies-to-lovers trope that is extremely well-written. Although characters from previous books appear here, the author does a phenomenal job of presenting these characters who share friendship and family ties. I assure you they won’t cause the slightest ripple in your comfort zone.

This book has so many elements – enemies to lovers, ghosts of the past, finding oneself — just to name a few — and each element is woven together perfectly. Everything links back to a gripping story, told through wonderful characters. It’s such an incredible love story! Jacob Chance did a masterful job with all the characters, especially Elle and Josh. There is so much emotion in these characters. The story is a creative piece of art with a natural ebb and flow in the writing.

Jacob Chance is a creative genius at writing sexual tension. The heat is palatable. The passion is scorching. The connection is tangible. This is a book that covers multiple layers of life and romance. Interesting, intriguing, and enjoyable to the end, the story has enough grit, plenty of raw emotion and passion to satisfy the romance lover in anyone. An emotionally charged novel that you can lose yourself in — with a surprising twist of suspense — and one that will not be forgotten.

Both author and book get a strong recommendation from me.

An Alpha you didn't see coming!

Reviewed on behalf of Reading Through Her Eyes blog

This book is a standalone however, you do see characters from previous books (Quake, Quiver, Delve, Tied and Delude) as supporting characters. In this book we get to see more of Josh and Elle, who have a love-hate relationship. Elle who is always full of Snark, Josh is an Alpha when he needs to be and where it counts. Joshua Dawson makes you fall in love with him, you just can't help it.

Overall Thoughts: This book has exceeded my expectations and Jacob Chance has blown his previous work out of the water with this one. It is well worth the waiting and the teasing of this one! Mr. Chance knows how to write sexual tension better than anyone else and his books are filled with them, this book is no different. It's written in a way to keep you turning the page to keep reading with the right amount of sexiness, sweetness and suspenseful. If I could give it more than a 5 star rating I would, and I highly recommend this book!

Beautiful cover design~more than just a friends to lovers tale!

*REVIEWING FOR ROCK HARD ROMANCE*

Firstly,what a beautiful cover design for this story!

Canvas can easily be read as a Standalone,and for those of us who have read the previous books where Josh and Elle feature,it is one that we knew was coming, were all excited to see where their story would go.
From the Prologue,to the Epilogue,we are given so much more than just a friends to lovers tale~told in DUAL POV's ~yes the HOT scenes between Josh and Elle are that -the obvious attraction between both comes across,and with how she reacts to him,at times,I must admit,did annoy me (tho as the story unfolds,reasons for why are revealed) It was great to see Kyle/Janny Derek/Kenna (who we've seen before) giving a slight insight to what was going on with them.
Josh with his art and his desire to be a Tattooist/owning his own studio,also brought in a series of new characters,and his family~Dad and Older brother with an MC /younger brother who,like him,is not in that life~All of whom could be potential story-lines for future works?? (no pressure Jacob!)
As I've said~it is more than just the friends to lovers, there was a lot going on in the story,and I haven't gone into detail because,it would be better to read it for yourselves!
