My thoughts… One Tiny Lie was a really quick read for me. I was able to read it within one day. It held my attention from the very beginning and didn’t let go. Livie is off to college. Princeton exactly. She’s always dreamed of attending Princeton, her fathers alma mater, and becoming a doctor. I loved her in Ten Tiny Breaths. She’s the younger sister of Kacey Clearly. She’s 18 and a bit naive. She […]

My thoughts… Amazing. Brilliant. Emotional. Heart Wrenching. Shocking. Astonishing. Awe-Inspiring. Spectacular. Epic. Ten Tiny Breaths is the first story by Author K.A. Tucker that I’ve read. This story was amazing! It’s easily the best book I’ve read so far this year. Yes, I loved it that much! I loved the main and secondary characters. Kacey & Livie lost their parents in a automobile 4 years ago. Livie was sick at the time of the accident, […]

My thoughts… I loved Madison in the first book and I’m happy that she got her own story. She’s really strong and I liked her a lot. She gave up her life in New York so she could come home and take over the family business when her parents were killed in a deadly car accident. Gabriel. He is bad ass and I really liked him. He suffers from PTSD and has nightmares every night. […]

My thoughts… I’m very conflicted about this book. I rarely DNF books. I usually try to stick it out, but I just couldn’t with this one. On the one hand I really liked Eric & Ivy. They were both interesting characters. I thought they would make a good couple. On the other hand there seemed to be vital parts of this story that were missing. I’m not a fan of insta-relationships and/or insta-love. I think […]

My thoughts… Torn was an emotional roller coaster. I experienced a whirlwind of emotions while reading this one. It was a fast read for me. I finished it in less than a day. I just couldn’t seem to put it down. I really liked Chloe. The poor girl has had a hard life. Her mother had her at a young age and was mean and cruel to her. Sometimes she would leave Chloe for weeks […]

My thoughts… What a great contemporary story. I really liked this one. It goes something like this… Kyler and Sydney have been friends since childhood. Both of them are in love with each other, but neither has a clue that the other feels the same way. I loved Sydney from the beginning. Even though she’s deeply in love with Kyler, she keeps her feelings to herself because she knows he’s a player and doesn’t want […]

My thoughts… Promise Me This is a sweet new adult contemporary romance. I really enjoyed this one. The characters are rich with emotions and I loved getting to know them. I really liked Charlie. She’s a bit clumsy. In fact upon meeting Jhett she face plants. Poor girl. She’s always done as her controlling mother has wanted. She goes to a specific school and has never really “lived” life. She’s never experienced what all the […]

My thoughts… Out of Breath is the conclusion to the Breathing Series and boy what a series this has been. I absolutely loved it. I’m sort of sad that I’ve reached the end, but I can honestly say that I am very happy with the way things turned out. Ms Donovan is a new to me author. I have read so many reviews and tweets about this series that I knew I had to give […]

My thoughts… I’m so excited to share my thoughts about this book with you. *squee* I loved this one. Hard. For reals. Sam’s a single mom. She became pregnant after having a one-night stand. Said one-night stand didn’t want anything to do with her or the baby. He went as far to say that he didn’t want to be named on the birth certificate. What an asshat. You’ll find out who said asshat is within […]

My thoughts… Catching Liam is a new adult contemporary romance debut novel by Author Sophia Bleu. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this one, but the synopsis caught my attention and I decided to take a chance. I’m really glad I did. Jillian’s got a secret. One only her two best friends know about. Because of this secret she doesn’t date anymore. Instead she chooses to bring a guy home for a night […]

My thoughts… Damaged 2 is the sequel to Damaged. Although I enjoyed it I don’t think it lived up to my expectations. It started out a little confusing to me, but after reading several pages things started to clear up. As revealed in the first book both Sidney & Peter have run from the problems of their past and now it’s time for Sidney to face hers and move on with her life. This book […]

My thoughts… April Showers is a debut novel by author Karli Perrin. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this one. The synopsis sounded really good so I couldn’t wait to dive into it. It’s such a cute contemporary romance. I really enjoyed reading it. If I hadn’t started it so late in the evening I would’ve been able to get through it in one sitting. So good. The main characters are rich with […]

My thoughts… Let me tell you…5 Stars are NOT enough for this book. It is ah-freakin-mazing! For reals. When I purchased this one I wasn’t aware that there was going to be more than one book. Sometimes I’m reluctant to buy books like this because I’m such an impatient person. I need for stories to be wrapped up by the end of a book, but I realize in some cases that’s not possible. I loved […]

My thoughts… Jet is book two in the Marked Men series by Author Jay Crownover. While I enjoyed Jet & Ayden’s story, I don’t think it was quite the story Rule was. There was just something fascinating about Rule that captured my attention from the beginning. This one started out as a slow read for me, but the more I read the more enjoyable it became. Even though Jet & Ayden appear to be completely […]

My thoughts… OMG! I could not put this book down. I was drawn in from page one and it didn’t let me go until the very end. White Trash Beautiful is so emotional. I cried several times. To me it seems that books that make you cry are typically great reads. This one didn’t disappoint. I was able to read this one in one sitting. It was that good. I loved Cass Daniels from the […]

My thoughts… Omigosh this was an amazing read. I love it so! Clearly one of my favorites so far this year. This one is highly emotional. I both laughed and cried while reading it. Pax. He’s sexy and comes with a lot of baggage. He doesn’t deal with his problems. Instead he abuses drugs and alcohol to feel numb. He lost his mother when he was seven years old and instead of dealing with the […]

My thoughts… This is going to be a very short review. OMG! I knew going into this one that it was going to be highly emotional and I wasn’t wrong. By the end of Stealing Harper I was a blubbering mess. Literally. I’m still a bit emotional over it. I’m so glad that Ms McAdams wrote his story. I loved Chase. He struggled from the beginning with wanting Harper for himself and pushing her away […]

My thoughts… I really enjoyed reading this one. I loved both Rory and Tyler from the beginning. These two are completely different. Rory is pretty much a book nerd. She’s attending college to become a coroner. She’s never been in a relationship before. She’s a virgin and she’s just…different. Tyler’s a bad boy or at least that’s what he seems to be at first. He’s attending the same college but he’s in the EMT program […]

My thoughts… I loved, loved, loved No Attachments. As some of you know Author Tiffany King is one of my favorite authors. I haven’t read one of her books yet that I didn’t like. My daughter who’s 14 loves her books too. Although she won’t be reading this one since it’s more New Adult. As with most of Tiffany’s books you can always count on her taking you on an emotional journey. Her stories are […]

My thoughts… I’ve heard many things about this book. Some of my fellow readers are going wild for Remington “Riptide” Tate. There’s even a Facebook Group centered around him and the other characters within the book. My first impression of Remy was that he is cocky. I mean really cocky. When Remy and Brooke first meet things are a little bit awkward to me but for the most part was believable. I liked the connection […]

My thoughts… The first chapter of this book will leave you laughing. The way it is written was a nice surprise and cracked me up. I loved Sidney and Peter. They both have issues from the past that they are struggling with, but they just seem to fit well together. They’ve both ran away from their problems instead of dealing with them and it ends up being a big mistake for Sidney when her past […]
