Special Excerpt: Turtle Bay by Tiffany King
I could almost see the tension leave their shoulders. “Look at our Rainbow, all grown up,” Butch said, pretending to wipe away a tear. Unlike the reluctance Buttercup had shown, Butch was all for me getting a job. He appreciated the fact I wanted to work for what I wanted. “Aw, don’t cry, Creston,” I said, patting him on the back. “Butch,” he corrected. “Rain,” I countered. “I’ll never understand why you’d want to change […]
Release Day and Review: Pocketful of Sand by M. Leighton
The title says it all…. As I sit here my mind is working overtime trying to come up with the words to express my true feelings about this book. I literally felt so many emotions while I was reading it. I was sucked in from the very first page. This book was unlike anything I’ve read before. Sure there were a few predictable things. But the plot itself was unique, and that’s what I loved […]
Review: The Deal by Elle Kennedy
I’ve heard good things about this one. It’s gotten high ratings and the overall buzz is that it’s a really good read. You know what? I agree. My favorite character in this book is Garrett. I loved Garrett from the beginning. The captain of Briars hockey team, he’s the college hottie. Every girl wants a piece of him. A lot of them have had him. In a hook up sort of way. He doesn’t do […]
Review: Tight by Alessandra Torre
Omigosh this book is amazing and is masterfully crafted. When I read the synopsis I just knew I had to read it. It sucked me in from the very first page and had my mind working overtime trying to figure out what would happen next. The suspense in this book is unbelievable. Ms Torre did an excellent job of holding my interest until the end. Every time I thought I’d have it figured out something […]
Review: Throb by Vi Keeland
Going into this one I wasn’t quite sure how I’d feel about it considering it’s centered around two males and one female, but I think Ms Keeland did an excellent job of writing it. I’m not really a love triangle type of person. I’d prefer a hero and heroine, but I didn’t really mind it in this story. I’m a big fan of Ms Keeland’s work so I knew I had to read this book. […]
Review: Ripped by Katy Evans
While I enjoyed this book, I don’t think it was as good as the first four. I guess Remy spoiled the series for me. I mean don’t get me wrong. This was a great read, but to me it didn’t hold my attention as well as the previous books. I didn’t get that “I can’t put it down” feeling. Pandora is an odd duck. I’ve always felt she was the weird friend. It isn’t that […]
Review: The Girl in 6E by A.R. Torre
This book is a little different then any I’ve read. The synopsis caught my attention and I thought I’d give it a shot. It’s definitely different. I do believe it was self published first and then picked up by a publisher after the author rewrote some of it. I really liked it for the most part. There were a few things I found to be a little bit unrealistic, but not so much that I […]
Review: 10 Years by Bethany Lopez
I just love this series. The characters are all really interesting. And I love how they’re a tight knit group who appear in all the books. I’ve been excited about this book for a while now. The tension between Craig and Gwen has been growing. I really wanted to find out what happened to make their friendship get off track. Gwen sort of ticked me off in the last book. (Sorry Bethany) She grew really […]
RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: Nocte by Courtney Cole
My thoughts… First I’d like to thank Courtney Cole and Badass Marketing for the opportunity to read and review an advance copy of this book before release day. I truly appreciate your trust in me with this “secret” project. Well, I call it secret since not much has been released about it. Now onto my review. WOW! I’ll say it again. WOW! What an amazingly, wild, mind fucking ride. This story is intense, and gritty, […]
BLOG TOUR and REVIEW: Left Behind by Vi Keeland and Dylan Scott
My thoughts… Wow! What a great story. This book is so unlike any that Ms Keeland has written. It’s a young adult that sort of turns into a new adult at the very end. I really loved this one. Being honest, I had no idea what this story was about when I signed up for the review tour. All I knew was that it was written by Ms Keeland and Dylan Scott. That it was […]
RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: Burying Water by K.A. Tucker
My thoughts… STOP!!! – the first few lines of this review may be spoilish. Against my better judgement I’m giving this book four stars. There are a few things I consider “hard limits” when I’m selecting books to read. One of them is cheating. I don’t like it. I don’t like it when it’s not mentioned in the synopsis letting me know ahead of time. I can understand for the sake of this story (plot […]
REVIEW: Bright Side by Kim Holden
My thoughts… This has got to be one of the most beautifully written stories I have ever had the pleasure to read. I experienced so many feels while reading this book. I laughed a lot. And cried a lot. Like snotty blubbering tears. This book tore me up and spit me back out and I loved every minute of it. Bright Side is easily one of the best books I’ve read this year. I can […]
RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: The Sinner’s Bargain by Claire Contreras
My thoughts… I have been so excited about the release of this book. The Devil’ s Contract ended on such a huge cliffhanger. I mean huge. If you read the review I posted for it then you may remember that I was a bit upset with the fact that the book ended with a cliffhanger and that as a reader I had no prior knowledge of the fact that there would be a book two […]
RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: What If by Rebecca Donovan
My thoughts… Wow! What If is unlike any other book I’ve read before. It’s beautifully written and masterfully crafted. There are so many layers to this story. It is told from multiple POVs. It engages the reader to really focus on what’s happening not only in present day, but several years back when these characters were four best friends growing up. I’m finding that writing a review for this book a bit challenging. It would […]
REVIEW: Black Lies by Alessandra Torre
My thoughts… These are my honest thoughts on Black Lies. There has been so much hype behind this book. The book blogging community has sang it’s praises since release day. Some have rated it “Six Stars.” While others have stated it’s “The Best Book of 2014. While I somewhat agree with them, I wouldn’t say it’s “The Best Book of 2014” considering 2014 isn’t over yet. I’m sure I’m going to catch a lot of […]
BLOG TOUR and REVIEW: Worth Forgiving by Vi Keeland
My thoughts… Worth Forgiving is the final book in the MMA Fighter series by Vi Keeland. I love this series so much!!! I was both looking forward too and also feeling a bit melancholy about the release of this book. I’ve felt so many emotions while reading this series. I’ve come to love each and every hero. Ms Keeland has a unique writing style and her stories always draw me in from the very first […]
REVIEW: Schooling Scarlett by Clarissa Darling
My thoughts… I’ll admit I was intrigued after reading the synopsis for part one of this serial. It sounded like a interesting read and even though this is a debut serial by this author I decided to give it a try. I liked it for the most part. I had a few issues with how things happened. It was a little unrealistic at times and also it seemed a bit rushed, but considering it’s a […]
RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: Let Me Know by Stina Lindenblatt
My thoughts… Let Me Know is the continuation of Marcus and Amber’s story. First let me say that it is necessary that you read Tell Me When which is the first book before starting this one. I had so many feels while reading this book. I became emotionally attached to these characters while reading book one. That attachment only grew stronger when I started reading this one. The main plot focuses on stalking. It’s not […]
REVIEW: Me Before You by JoJo Moyes
My thoughts… Emotionally heartbreaking. Amazing brilliant. My favorite book of the year so far. Guys, I cannot begin to tell you how much this book touched my heart. It’s highly emotional. I experienced so many emotions while reading it and I’m still emotional as I sit here and write this review. The plot is unique. I’ve never read a story like this one before. The subject matter isn’t one that’s overdone. Me Before You is […]
REVIEW: Red & Wolfe – Part Three
My thoughts… I’m torn with my thoughts on this one. On one hand the sex was REALLY HOT. Although, deciding you’re gonna have anal sex with a woman that’s never had anal sex and just shove your junk in there without warning or the use of lube is a bit…. Rude? Wrong? Ridiculous? Mean? Hurtful for the love of God? I’m sure I can come up with a few more words, but I think you […]
