Release Day and Review: Pocketful of Sand by M. Leighton

Release Day and Review: Pocketful of Sand by M. Leighton

March 15, 2015 0 Comments Christy

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

Review: The Deal by Elle Kennedy

March 12, 2015 0 Comments Christy

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: Throb by Vi Keeland

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: 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 […]

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

October 20, 2014 2 Comments Christy

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

October 7, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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 […]

October 2, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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

September 30, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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

RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: What If by Rebecca Donovan

September 16, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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

September 11, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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 […]

September 9, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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 […]

September 5, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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

RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: Let Me Know by Stina Lindenblatt

September 2, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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 […]

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

August 28, 2014 0 Comments Christy

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 […]

“You sure Evan doesn’ t mind me being here?” “He probably hates that you’ re staying the night, but he’ ll get over it.” I take a step toward him and pat him on the shoulder, marveling at the solid feel of muscle beneath my palm, beneath the thick fabric of his sweatshirt. Has he gotten taller since the last time I saw him? Broader? He’ s so big, standing next to him makes me […]

My thoughts… How far would you go to make your friend realize he’s about to make the worst mistake of his life? How far would you go to make the girl of your dreams see that you belong together? These are two questions I found myself pondering. After finishing this book I got my answers and more. I totally and completely loved this story. I have been trying to be patient for Scott and Gaby’s […]

My thoughts… Who knew Wolfe is sex on a stick. Holy wow this second part was HOT! Wolfe is growing on me. The chemistry between these two is off the charts. The sex they have is scorching! I seriously had to fan myself a couple times. The story itself is getting more and more intriguing. I’m not sure where it’s headed or where it’s going to end up. I can’t wait to see though. I’m […]

REVIEW: RED & WOLFE – PART ONE

August 8, 2014 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… I’m reading another serial as you can see. It’s a completed serial so there’s my excuse. This installment is approximately 52 pages. I was able to read it really quickly. I found both Red & Wolfe intriguing. Red has had some bad luck lately and is running out of funds. She’s getting to the point of being desperate. As hard as she tries she can’t seem to find a job for nothing. I […]

My thoughts… Wow! I really liked this book. I’ve only ever read one other book by this author and I DNF’d it because I couldn’t connect with the characters. That wasn’t the case with this book. I took a liking to Aubrey right away. She’s harboring a lot of guilt because she thinks she could have done more where her sister was concerned. She lost her sister to a drug overdose three years ago and […]
