My thoughts… First let me start off by saying that this book came highly recommended. I had heard so many great things about it. Ms Allred is a new to me author and truthfully I wasn’t sure what to expect. I can honestly say that I truly enjoyed reading it. The Sweet Gum Tree has everything I’ve ever wanted in a romance book. A beautiful and well written love story. One that touches my heart […]

My thoughts… Omigosh you guys! All the feels of this book. W-O-W! I can honestly tell you that this is one of my favorite reads of 2014. This book is an amazing. It’s a beautifully written love story with a unique storyline. Once I got started reading it I couldn’t put it down. I was able to start and finish it within a few short hours. I was completely entranced from the very first page. […]

Desire (Brightest Kind of Darkness #4) by P.T. Michelle Review & GIVEAWAY!

April 10, 2014 2 Comments Regina

You can find my review of Destiny (BKoD #3) here and a short interview I did with P.T. Michelle featured on Scriptland about self-publishing here. P.T. Michelle knows how to write romance. I have a problem with guys sprouting wings in books. It’s one of the main reasons why I didn’t get into the Fallen series by Lauren Kate. But P.T. Michelle does wings right! I LOVE the male MC, Ethan, in this series, wings and […]

REVIEW: Find You in the Dark by A. Meredith Walters

April 10, 2014 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… I’ll be honest… I sort of went into this book blindly. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into it. A couple twitter pals recommended this book so I thought I’d give it a try. Things started off great. I was enjoying the first few chapters, but then things started to change for me. Clay started acting irrational and I had a hard time accepting his behavior. I’m hoping this isn’t to spoilerish, […]

REVIEW: Falling Under by Jasinda Wilder

REVIEW: Falling Under by Jasinda Wilder

April 9, 2014 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… Falling Under was a secret project written by the fabulous Jasinda Wilder. It’s the “unexpected” third book in the Falling series. I don’t think anyone was aware of this book until right before release day. I know I wasn’t. The main characters are Oz Hyde and Kylie Calloway. Kylie is the 17 year old daughter of Colt & Nell Calloway. Book one was their story in case you’re wondering, And Oz? Well… I […]

RELEASE DAY and REVIEW: Breathe into Me by Sara Fawkes

April 8, 2014 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… This is the first book by Author Sara Fawkes that I’ve read. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this one, but the synopsis captured my attention and I couldn’t wait to get started reading it. I liked both of the main characters and some of the secondary characters. Lacey has had a rough life the last few years. After her father dies her mother packs herself, Lacey, and Lacey’s little brother […]

The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski

The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski

April 5, 2014 0 Comments Regina

If I gave this book a rating strictly based on my enjoyment of the novel it would be closer to 3 stars. Unfortunately, I think I had a bad case of The Reader’s Curse while reading The Winner’s Curse. I read TWC about a week after reading Tsarina by J.Nell Patrick. These books have the same bones. I couldn’t help myself from comparing them while reading TWC. I decided to call my conundrum The Reader’s […]

My thoughts… I could just SQUEE! I’ve been waiting for this one and it seems likes it’s taken forever for release day to get here. Finally though… It’s here!! This book was a highly emotional read for me. I teared up quite a few times while reading it. I love books like this one. Books that touch your heart. Maybe Someday did that and so much more. There are so many things I want to […]

REVIEW: Cupcakes and Ink by Helena Hunting

April 3, 2014 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… Cupcakes and Ink is a novella written as a prequel to Clipped Wings. I only discovered it after I finished reading book one. While I wouldn’t say it’s mandatory you read it before book one, it does give you some insight of how things started out between the main characters.

REVIEW: Rewarded by Jo Davis

REVIEW: Rewarded by Jo Davis

April 2, 2014 1 Comment Christy

My thoughts… Rewarded is the third and final novella in Torn Between Two Lovers series. I’m sort of sad this story is complete, but having said that I’m happy with how everything turned out. I’ve come to love the main characters and enjoyed reading their story. Rewarded offers not only a love triangle, but also a few twist and turns that will keep guessing as to what will happen next. There were a couple things […]

REVIEW: Risky by Jo Davis

REVIEW: Risky by Jo Davis

March 31, 2014 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… Risky starts up where Raw ended. If you read my review for Raw then you know it ended with a big cliffhanger. I’ve been eagerly waiting for this novella to be released. When Joaquin and Anna meet for the first time the sparks fly. There’s an instant attraction that’s very strong between the two. I’m sort of conflicted about their relationship. This series involves a love triangle. I knew this going in, but […]

My thoughts… Omigosh! I loved, loved, loved this story. It’s easily one of my favorites of 2014. The plot is different from any book that I’ve read before. I was intrigued after reading the synopsis and couldn’t wait to dive into it. Once I got started I had trouble putting it down. I think I could have easily read it in one sitting had I not started it so late in the evening. This book […]

March 28, 2014 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… I had such high hopes for this one. I really did. Sadly though it fell short. There was too much sex and little storyline. I know you’re thinking “Too much sex?” Yes, too much sex. I prefer to have a storyline in my books. One where sex is not the main focus. If I want to read sex, sex, and more sex scenes I’d read erotica for that. That’s pretty much all I […]

Excerpt Hop came out of the bathroom to see Lanie on her feet on the other side of the bed, panties on, hands twisted behind her back putting her bra on. Again. He didn’ t say a word. He prowled to her, reached out an arm the second he was close, yanked her to him and fell to his back in the bed, taking her down with him. “Hop—” she started, pushing her weight against […]

My thoughts… The perfect ending to a beautiful love story. I’m so happy that I’ve was given the opportunity to read and review this novella. I’ve been patiently waiting for it to be released. I really liked Promise Me This which is book one in this series. To say I had really high hopes for this novella would be an understatement. Initially Promise Me Forever was suppose to be a full novel, but somewhere along […]

A week before her big wedding, Mia Devine’s  fiance, Tucker,  calls off their wedding with a text from VEGAS. Which in my opinion was probably the best thing to happen to her..as he has a thing against oral sex and body fluids. Also, it seems like he was the kind of guy who is “Wham, Bam, Thank you Ma’am. I’m sorry you didn’t get off but I must go take a shower because I’m a […]

I’m like a Sofia Coppola film. I love pop music, pop culture, trendy clothes, and glittery, sparkly, never-ending-shimmery things. On sunny days you can find me driving to work with my sun roof open, jamming Britney Spears and admiring how my freshly painted nails contrast with my gold steering wheel cover. The truth is, I LOVE bubble gum pink, Chanel lipstick, and pretty things. So does Gia. Sounds superficial, right? But zoom in on the […]

Omigosh! I loved this book. I really did, but… Emily. She got on my nerves quite a few times. She really needed to grow a backbone. When it came to Dillon she just rolled with the punches. She never stood up to him and that made me not like her very much. In the end though I started to warm up to her. Dillon was a total douche canoe. To say I didn’t like him […]

One of our favorite authors, Jennifer L. Armentrout, took part of this year’s Twitter Fiction Festival (http://twitterfictionfestival.com/). With her, she brought a short story called “The Proposal” featuring one of our favorite couples… And it was tweeted 140 characters at a time. I almost missed out on reading The Proposal! Ironically, I caught the tail end of it and read the story on my iPhone sitting in the dressing room while my mother tried on dresses […]
