Review: Dare You To by Katie McGarry

Review: Dare You To by Katie McGarry

January 25, 2013 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… I really didn’t know what to expect with this book. I loved the Pushing The Limits which is the first book in this series. I wasn’t a fan of Beth in the first book. I thought she was both mean and rude. Hardened if you will. But after reading her story I can understand why she acts or acted the way she did. She’s hard it rough. A hard life from the time […]

My thoughts… I loved this story. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into it, but I had a good feeling about it. The synopsis captured my attention and I was really excited to start reading it. One Week Girlfriend is a highly emotional story about college football quarterback, Drew Callahan. He’s known as the golden boy. He’s from a well to do family, doesn’t want for anything and can have any girl he choses. […]

My thoughts… I was so excited when I heard Chris was going to get his own story. Although it’s a short one (Novella), it’s a great read. I was able to read it all in one setting. I love the Edge of Honor Series. It’s chock full of tall, dark and sexy heroes. It’s a must read for all romantic suspense lovers. Chris is the glue that holds everything together. He’s more than Dare’s errand […]

STOP! This review contains spoilers regarding Perfect Chemistry, Book One. If you haven’t yet read Perfect Chemistry you may not want to continue reading. My thoughts… Rules of Attraction is the second book in the “Perfect Chemistry” series by author Simone Elkeles. While I enjoyed this story, I felt it was lacking a bit. I had a hard time getting into it at first. That’s not to say that I didn’t enjoy it because I […]

My thoughts… I Choose You is the second book in Author Bethany Lopez’s “Friends & Lovers” series. I really enjoyed reading it. I think what I enjoyed most about it is the fact that Nicole still had her innocence and it was nice to read a story that wasn’t overly sexual. I’m not saying there isn’t any sexual content because there is some but I was pleased that it wasn’t the main focus of the […]

My thoughts… Pushing the Limits is a contemporary story written by Author Katie McGarry. She’s a new author to me and I wasn’t sure what to expect when selecting this book. I have heard many good things about it and I’ve read several positive reviews so I decided to take a chance on it and I’m very happy that I did. This highly emotional realistic story will captivate you from the beginning and keep your […]

My thoughts… Have you ever read a story that draws you in from the very beginning? One where you can’t put it down because you can’t wait to find out what happens next? This is what Hopeless did for me. I literally couldn’t stop reading it. I love, love, love this story. So much! There was never a time where I lost interest or started skimming while reading it. It kept me captivated from beginning […]

My thoughts… I wasn’t really sure what to expect with this story. I had heard it was another “Twilight Fan Fiction” but I also heard it was funny and an overall great story. While I’ll agree it was funny to a certain extent, it wasn’t overly so. The premise is great. I enjoyed getting to know Caroline and her BFF’s. I could definitely relate to some of their banter. Getting to know Simon was also […]

Review: From Ashes by Molly McAdams

My thoughts… From Ashes is the second book by Author Molly McAdams. After having read Taking Chances a short time ago, I was really excited to read this one. While I enjoyed reading From Ashes, I feel it was too long and some scenes should have been omitted via editing. The premise was quite good and the characters were realistic, but I found myself skimming through quite a bit of it. Would I read it […]

My thoughts… What can I say that will make you want to read this book? I could say that it stands out from most Young Adult books I have read because it is not your typical love story. Although there is a love story found within these pages, there is in fact so much more. The Fault in Our Stars is about a young girl whose 16 years old. Her name is Hazel and she […]

Review: Renegade by Lora Leigh

Review: Renegade by Lora Leigh

December 7, 2012 1 Comment Christy

My thoughts… Let me just start out by saying this book is smoking hot. Lora Leigh is my favorite author in the erotic/romance world. Her books are amazing. I’m not sure if I have ever read one that I didn’t like. Renegade is part of the Elite Ops series. The Elite Ops agents are strong, sexy and overall good guys. They all come with baggage from their pre-Elite Ops days. Mikayla Martin is a sweet […]

My thoughts… Where to begin? I loved this book. As with all the books in the Wild Riders series it was a very good read. Teresa and AJ grew up together and were childhood sweethearts. On her 18th birthday, AJ leaves town because he’s on the road to being a criminal and doesn’t want to mess up Teresa’s life. Fast forward several years, AJ and Pax are undercover operatives for a government agency call the […]

My thoughts… When I saw this book come up for review I found myself jumping for joy. Shiloh Walker is within the top 5 of my favorite authors. Her stories are creative and draw you in from the beginning. Her characters are well developed and I find myself wanting to learn all about them. The first couple of chapters of this story go into detail of how Nicholas and Aislinn meet and fall in love. […]

My thoughts… I found What A boy Wants to be quite entertaining. Several scenes made me chuckle. It’s a relatively sweet story from the leading males POV. Sebastian has a blog where he’s known as The Hook-Up Doctor. For a fee he will help you snag a guy your interested in. Although it’s a short read I enjoyed it. I’m looking forward to reading What a Boy Needs next.

My thoughts… Just in time for the holidays comes Under The Mistletoe. This novella length story is part of The Lucky Harbor series by Ms. Shalvis. Mia and Nick share a common bond. They were both given up at birth. Mia was adopted by a wonderful couple while Nick hadn’t been so lucky. I really enjoyed these two. They have great chemistry together. As the story progressed it was refreshing to see them overcome their […]

My thoughts… Before I decided to read this book, I hadn’t heard of Annie Solomon or Two Lethal Lies. While browsing several blogs I ran across a few reviews for the book that were both positive and interesting. I decided I would take a chance on a new author since I love romantic suspense. I’m really glad I did. Two Lethal Lies is a story about Mitch Turner and his young daughter Julia. They’ve been […]

My thoughts… In one word, AMAZING! I loved everything about this book. Ms Shalvis has crafted what I would call the perfect story. The characters of the book were realistic, the plot was excellent and the story is well written. I loved Maddie Moore and her sisters. Not having spent a lot of time with her two half-sisters over the years, Maddie heads to the small town of Lucky-Harbor, Washington where she plans to claim […]
