Enter,Jason
[image]
He is 31 and definitely the biggest jackass on earth,or at least he seems to be.He is every householders' nightmare.We can see what a prick he is from Haley's eyes.
[image]
How would you feel if your idiot neighbor destroyed your bed flower?
I dont know about you but I would have KILLED HIM!
Well in our story his action brings them closer which is good since their hate turns into friendship and then into something more.With him she comes out of her shell and she feels comfartable with a 'friend'.Surprisingly she changes him too!We can see that he acts more like his age and he is so adorable.However,he is still a baked goods-whore.
I mean it!I've never read about someone who is so obsessed with food and especially with baked goods.
His food addiction is beyond hilarious.Our cookie whore would kill anyone,including his own dad,if he touched his food.
“Hey, those look good! Can I have one?” a man she’d seen hundreds of times around Jason’s house asked, reaching out to take one. “Back the fuck off! She brought them for me, you bastard!” Jason snapped.”
[image]
The only reason I'm rating this with for stars is because during about 20% I felt like I was watching a tennis match.
[image]
You love me. No I dont. I hate you. No you dont. Blah blah blah blah.....
I started getting tired because they indeed loved each other and the WORST? That part wasnt funny!It reminded me of a usual contemporary book !
Overall,this is a light read which will make you laugh a lot.Jason is a big baby who you will adore for sure.Haley is awesome so if we overlook that irritating 20% the story deserves more than 5 stars.It is a hilarious book and exactly what I needed after Forbidden
“How dare you touch my cookies, you bastard!” Jason said in utter disgust before popping the cookie into his mouth and heading back to his house. “Damn those looked good, too,” Brad grumbled. Haley sighed. “Don’t worry I have a second plate on my counter.” The words were barely out of her mouth when Jason abruptly changed course and headed towards her house. “Well, there was,” she said, watching Jason walk into her house like he owned it. A minute later he walked out of her house, carrying both plates and the gallon of milk she had in her fridge. He headed back to his house, but not before he glared at Brad. “You cookie thieving bastard,” they heard him mutter. Brad rolled his eyes, chuckling. “And people wonder how I lost weight rooming with him in college.”

Books like this one usually dont work for me but this one was not shallow,unlike many others.Rich guys who love getting laid with every woman who acceptes their invitation annoy me to death but Jack has a different story to tell.He is your typical rich,man-whore who has no feelings about his companions.All his actions are the results of an awful and traumatized childhood.Jack is Britain's most eligible bachelor.He is famous,rich,attractive and despite his reputation he is irresistable to women.However his life is a mess,as his past cant be forgotten.
Pay-back is a bitch. Jack never understood how horrible is to bang someone and then leave without saying a word until a girl,Belle, treated him this way.At first sight Belle seems to be his female version but I must say that she was only playing him.Jack is intrigued and after a long time he finally feels.
[image]
He truly wants her but they cant be together.Obviously the attraction is not one sided so they are both determined to fight for what they have and face the consequences of their actions.
Their passion and chemistry is very strong.You will also be surprised with Belle's maturity and how she is handling the situation.She is calm and supportive.Jack is afraid that he wll screw everything up but his soul mate is always there to reassure him that everything's gonna be okay.
So far the story is so interesting and not cheesy,at all.It's hot and captivating.However,when the downhill starts unexpectable emotions will be evoked.Personally I was shocked with myself.Ending up wiping my tears at 2 a.m. wasn't on my schedule.I was devasted and heart broken.He didnt deserve what happened to him.I think fate was really unfair.
I cant wait to read the first book of this series.The prequel was so good and it lefts me wondering how awesome will Beautiful Rose be.
I would definitely recommend this book to you.Their forbidden love is something you will enjoy ( and many of you have enjoyed similar stories in the past) so I think it's a must read.

A rollercoaster pretty much depicts human's life.It is true that if your life is a straight line you don't really live.This book was a rollercoaster for me.There were moments of anger,happiness,hotness and of course redemption.
Like a Greek tragedy....
Mimesis and catharsis.
To begin with the story,Maise is an 18 year old girl,but she is not what you expect her to be.She is different cause she grew up that way.Whiny woundn't describe her,you could say that Maise is dynamic and cynical.Evan on the other hand is caring and sweet.For his own reasons he preferes to keep his profile low and I actually liked that even though I had no clue why he was acting like that.
Maise is forced to live among drugs,drug lords,drug addicts,her stupid mother,with no friends and no support from her closer environment.However,she decides after an unexpected night, that this life should stop.Everyone deserves a second chance,right? Her resolutions are simple ; make some friends,apply for college,face fears,stop using men.Evan is one of those people who will stand close to her and will help her achieve her dreams.Someone has finally belived in her and that gives a hell of a motivation to this girl.
Her passion of movies is what I loved about her.I adore passionated people and I admire those who occuppy themshelves with cinema or photography.
Not wanting to bubble any longer I have to say that I quickly judged Maise in the beggining but when I actually read a bit further and I understood why she was doing all those things I felt bad.I mean we have the same age and I would never act like her but then I think that the way we have grown up is WAAAAAYYY different...
Would I recommend this? Hell yeah!!!Not annoying teens,not unwanted drama , an interesting plot..what else?I did not rate it with five stars just because it didnt left me book hangovered but that's my issue ;)

This is my first KA book and obviously not the last.Now I understand why everyone loves her and I want to read all her books.The plot,the characters and the writing style will definitely amaze you.Truth be told,I wasn't familiar with her writing style because it's unique.It took me a while to get used to it but I ended up loving it.
Lee [image] Indy [image]
These two heros were so strong.Lee is dangerous and one of the sexiest Alpha males.His word is a vow,his kiss.... *happy sigh* Lee and Indy grew up together but he was alaways declining her efforts of being together.Indy grew up loving him.In the beginning it might have seemed like an innocent crush but years showed otherwise.
In the present,Indy is now a bookstore owner and she finds herself entangled with the mafia.It's not her fault though.Her employe,Rosie has a side job,which obvioulsy he screwed up with since the diamonds were lost.She is in a big rouble and only Lee can help her.
The story evolves beautifully and it catches your interest,especially the Lee-scenes ;)
What annoyed me:
Indy sometimes was way too stubborn and Lee was acting like a caveman.Well sometimes his cavemanish behaviour was cute but there were times where he was over reacting.
The word "YIKES"!!!
OMG I read it like a million times!! Is it a KA bad habit or it was just Indy's attitute of saying it,like a lot? [image]
Overall it was an enjoyable read and I'm looking forward to reading more!I cant wait for Eddie's book!!

I have no words!I expected this book to be awesome,amazing,a mindfuck.Oh wait... it was a mindfuck... in a bad way...It was one of those book that you read and wonder "What was the puprose of this book?"First of all,let's say that it was not as dark as it's been promoted to be.Aside from the cruel start and a few other moments the book was lightly dark or sometimes not dark at all.
Plot: Her name is Tess and she has an ostensibly good life.She seems happy as long as she ignores her parents.Her boyfriend is so sweet,caring that you will feel jealous towards her.Yet,that is not enough for her.Her body shimmers for sinful things but her boyfriend is the vanilla guy who cant fullfill her fantasies.
A casual trip to Mexico doesnt end up as it was expected to.They kidnapp her.They steal her freedom.However our MC is strong and doesnt even think that giving up is an option.
" I would never give up. I would fight until I died; I’d teach the kidnappers they stole the wrong girl if they wanted meek and broken."
I loved her so far.Her determination to live made me praise her.Never the less Tess's fate is sealed.She is the bribe of a Rushian guy to Q.
Enter Q, He is a French guy who NEEDS TO ATTEND FRENCH LESSONS.Q is supposed to be a sadistic master?!Errmm I'm not sure if he was sadistic or deranged.The one moment he was all bossy and domineering , the next one he was talkative and a normal billionaire.I couldnt connect with Q.His character confused me a lot.I'm still not sure if he was a good person or not.
Biggests turn offs: The French,oh boy the French....
[image]
LOL it's not that I'm an expert in French but it was TOO obvious that the author didnt speak a word at French.The verbs in French are NOT the same at every person like in English,they change.For those who dont speak the language it wont be a problem but heck when I was reading French part I was doing a mental editing or I was LoLing, sorry. The encouraging thing is that the author has taken action and is solving this probem so hopefully if you read the actual and final book those parts will be edited.
HUGE SPOILER AND WTF MOMENTS! (view spoiler)[She gets raped and then she spends the night with Q?I understand that the author wanted to make it up for her but it was such an urealistic moment.Usually the rape victims dont tend to have sex a few hours after their abuse.The most annoying though was that after that she becomes attached to him just because he did that to her and she's curious about his past *facepalm*And WTH was the whole Q's mental speech that he wanted to rape her?HUH?? (hide spoiler)]
Overall I didnt like it.It had a kickass start and definitely potential.The author's writing is amazing and I will read her future books but this one simply didnt work for me.Not being able to connect with the characters is one of the most awful things that can happen to a reader.

4 Love , Live , Life stars

Life is unpredictable, You are never prepared for what will happen. Life is unfair. Life may have won the battle but that I-I will win the war.
This book is the author's debut and it was really good. I loved almost everything about it except from the ending .Seriously , it's not the ending , it's me. I dont know why I hate it so much but thankfully there was an epilogue that saved me from serious frustration. Also it was a little slow in some parts but overall it was a great read. Melissa is a promising author and I'll gladly read more of her books.
The story Kennie has great friends , amazing parents and a protective brother .She shouldn't feel alone but she does. Incidents of the past are still tormenting her. The memories are haunting her and she doesn’t seem to have forgotten what happened to her .No one can reach the dark places in her mind and figure out what happened . They have no clue aside from the fact that her engagement failed. A guy broke her heart or he hurt her in other ways?
Drew is a friend from the past. He was her brother's best friend who had moved town and now after so many years he is back with his brother Jax. He has also a past that wants to hide and I have to give him the credits that he is doing a great job on this domain .Drew and Kennie used to be very close but now as adults things might be more friendly between them.
I'll help in any way to bring old Kennie back.
After all these years he can easily notice that something is off with Kennie. Those blue eyes are now lifeless , she is not the same and he is determined to bring her back.
My thoughts: Why I loved it? It's easy to answer, I could connect with Kennie. Kennie is not your ordinary girl towards whom you'll feel bad for what happened to her but you will sympathize with her. Truth to be told the final strike wasn’t what made her that way but the journey that she'd been through.
There isn’t a worst thing like psychological war.(Does it make sense to you , or is it completely Greek ;p). Most of us either have been through that sh*t or we had a friend that experienced it. I belong to the second category and trust me , it's awful to see your friend helpless knowing that you can’t do anything to help him/her. There is a point that you start feeling guilty yourself and wondering why him? Anyway, before you open your mouth you must think whether what you'll say will have an impact to the others life. Unconsciously we blurt out things without thinking because that's one of the man's characteristics but we won’t understand what it feels like being the victim if you haven’t been in that position by yourself.
How can anyone be good for me when I haven't figured out how to be good for myself?

Hmmm I saw somewhere that the next book is about Jax *grins* OMG I cant wait!! I loved this guy. Seriously? Who can resist tattoos??Apparently not me....

Hidden is a summer read since the events are taking place on Hawaii.It wasnt a mindblowing book for me as I found it a little predictable and too sugared up for my taste.It's not that I dont like sweet guys but he was trying so hard and sometimes I was bored.Maybe it's the heroine's fault because her character wasn't dynamic.She was so shy and often pathetic.
Lyndsey [image]
Nick [image]
Both of them have come to this place in order to forget their pasts and start their lives from the beginning.They have secrets that wont't let them move on.Nick used to be a soldier so you can guess that the things he had seen weren't pretty.In fact he is blaming himself for an incident that happened there and I have to agree that it was partly his fault.I only forgive him because he was young and sellfish so he was acting only with his heart and not with his mind.
Lyndsey had a difficult life.She was abandoned by everyone except from her boyfriend.As time was passing she became more and more attached to him.Sadly,her boyfriend started to change his attitude towards her and things didn't end up well.
[image]
When these two meet each other at the restaurant where Lynds is working we can see that the attraction is obvious.She is a challenge for him and he feels the urge to protect her.
I'm really not a violent guy , Lyndsey , but I'd have to kill anyone who ever hurt you.
Ummm yeah that quote was not the best choice.Dont worry he is not dangerous ;)
Ok these two have the hots for each other and Nick is trying so hard to be with her but Lynds doesnt feel good enough so she shuts him down many times.Let alone that she wont even open up while he says everything to her.
[image]
The MCs are trying hard to make a new start but Lynds is kind of messing it up.It's not her fault but after all those things that happened to her she had to tell someone and I'm mad at her because she didnt.Of course I'm not going to talk about the (view spoiler)[run away (hide spoiler)] part.I found it too childish.She is 23 years old and she shouldnt be acting like this.
The ending... [image] [image]
It wasnt necessary! Let them get their HEA and just stop it there , okay? No need for (view spoiler)[marriages (hide spoiler)] and blah blah blah....
Overall Hidden is a light summer read which in many parts is quite enjoyable.I'm rating this with three stars for the reasons that I have already stated and because I thought that something was missing(I could use more humor).There was a point where I thought "Why so many tragedies here?" but these tragedies actually made it somehow interesting.Dont expect to read only a summer romance story , it has a few twists too.Finally,I have to admit that I liked the authors writiting style.It was descriptive and thank god I didnt have to use my dictionary.
The next book is about Nick's best friend.I'm looking forward to reading his story since he was the one that made me laugh. He is the cocky character and I hope the author manages to write a good book about him.

Victor Can he be her savior? [image]
Sarai is a 23 year old girl.She's been held as a captive for 9 years.She cant stand witnessing the rapping and the abusing anymore.She has to escape.Yet her only opportunity for a ticket to freedom is an American.He is a cold blooded murderer but given the circumstances she cant be picky so she sneaks into his car threatening him and she is praying that her plan has worked.However back in the compound she left behind her best friend , Lydia , an angry slut,Izel, and a furious -let's say- boyfriend , Javier.He is brutal and dangerous but he never treated her like the rest of the girls. Sarai always had more civil in comparison to the other captives. Maybe it was because of her beauty or maybe because she wasn’t really abducted.
[image] FYI Sarai is not the innocent girl you might give her credit for.She can be dangerous when her life is being threatened but she doesn’t have the intention to hurt anyone.
Victor has a strange and cold personality but he is her only protection.I liked him a lot not because of his blue-green eyes(yeah maybe that too) but because he is smart and very cautious. I would love to know why he is helping her in first place.In that way he is risking everything and he betrays everyone. Nevertheless he is genius and his plans always work.
Well now that we all now how Sarai grew up,it has only left to wonder how she will fit into the society again.She is not normal and she will never be.She is a person that can manipulate the others and I have to tell that she is a perfect actress.
This is a story of
life
love
trust
and betrayal
Part of me was so relived with the ending.I thought that everything was over but unfortunately nothing is over yet.
I loved this book a lot.Their relationship is not your typical love story.It wasn’t even clear if it was love or not.I have to admit that the author's writing style is absolutely amazing.Everything is so detailed and beautiful written.Nothing that you can predict will happen. This is a book that I'd definitely recommend , not only to those who love captive stories but to everyone.

“Death changes everyone...... It changes the way you think, the way you feel, and the way you live your life. Sometimes it makes you thankful for what you have, but more often that not, it makes you regret the things you've lost.”
I'm not sure who I felt about this book therefore the 3 stars.Its tone was supposed to be depressing?
I wasnt feeling it.
At all
Addison is still suffering from the tragedies of the past.It is obvious that she cant move on.This happens because she has also to deal with a crappy parent who doesnt let her to forget.Her dad is always there to make things worse.Instead of taking care of her , she is the one who tries to do the best about their lives.She runs the shop , she goes to school , she pays the bills while he only destroys his life with alchohol.Best parent ever , right?
“People in your life will let you down sometimes. It’s a fact of life. What matters is how you handle it.”
In the present she is still working at her family's shop and there she mets Zander . I liked him a lot. Zander is so sweet and cute.The things he does will make you feel jealous.Yet she doesnt fall easily for him but he tries hard.Hard enough to be with her. [image]
The thing with Addison is that she needs to escape from her past and open herself to new experiences.She must pick up her pieces and start from the beginning because life is no easy and we should NEVER give up.
“Another good thing about Legos(LIFE). If it falls apart, it doesn’t mean it’s destroyed. It just means you have to pick up the pieces and start again.”
Why I wasnt feeling it??
Seriously , I have no idea . Maybe because it was too predictable? [image]
I guess I was supposed to be rocked and utterly surprised when we learned the truth about (view spoiler)[Zander? (hide spoiler)] [image]
The worst of all and one of the reasons I gave it 3 stars was the ending. [image]
Not that the ending was bad but the way the author presented it was weird. I hated the facted that we didnt get to know how they (view spoiler)[become a couple again.And what about Meg??Did she get any help? (hide spoiler)]It left me with questions.
Overall it was an average read for me.There are plently 5 star reviews for this book so you might enjoy it.

Rowen is not average teenager.She wants to be eccentric and push away all those who care for her.Her mum is so tired with her rebellious behaviour ,as Rowen used to be a trouble , and she is not willing to pay her tuitions for the university unless she spends her summer at the Walker's ranch.
The city girl has to live in the countryside for a WHOLE summer!! [image]
Yet she never thought that the Walkers would turn out to be a very interesting family. [image]
Their older son , Jesse , is a hard working boy who loves nature and his horse. [image]
We are also introduced Garth. [image] He is the jerk of the story.Garth in the beginning seems to interested in her but his only purpose is to get in her pants. However when he understnads that Rowen is not this type of girl anymore he gets disappointed and starts being an a@@hole towards her. He discourages her and hurts her feelings.
Rowen's mum is an examlpe of how awful parents can be.This woman was annoying to death.She has no faith to her daughter and she was never there when she needed a mum.
All in all this was an average read for me. This book started really well.They were both of them sarcastic and it was so funny.Unfortunately, as their relationship had its ups and downs this happy mood was lost occasionally.Also,the book wasnt mind blowing even if the author tried to convulse us . At least I wasnt shaked by the revelations.The ending was a bit confusing to me.It left me with many questions and I have to say that I expected something different. [image]

Will Best before : 19 March 2007 [image] Lou [image]
Lou has to work for Will and in the beginning things are very difficult for both of them . Given the circumstances Will is all the time cranky, rude , vile to her because his life is miserable. However, they start getting along because Lou is the only person who contradicts him and that's something intriguing for him . There are times that he is such a tease and it was nice to know that after so long he finally seems happier .
After a while we see that due to his state Lou doesnt want to leave him alone , much less quit her job . Will inevitably manages to become part of her life and her daily routine . Sadly , Will is hiding something . He is an adult and he has the right to do whatever he wants with his life but damn I dont know if I agree with his thoughts. Wouldnt it be selfish to stop him? Of course it would be but still it doesnt feel right. If I were him I might wanted to do the same but if I had someone like Lou caring for me I dont think that I would consider it like an option anymore .
Well, Lou is trying to stop him from doing anything crazy and I really admire that she is the only person that hasnt lost faith on him.
She has only six freaking months to change his life but she never thought that he would change her life as well .
I loved Will! He is one of the smartest book heros I've ever met. “You only get one life. It's actually your duty to live it as fully as possible.” I felt sorry and bad for him . The one day you have everything and the next nothing. His story will totally affect you . He is not the book hero with the fucked up past who finds release at sex. NO!This book is unique and very depressing but you'll never regret reading it.
Lou is simply wonderful!She is trying so hard , with gallant efforts to help him and she deserves a million congratulations.No one forced her to stay with him but she did. She had the right to leave him but she didnt. She's full of exuberance which affects him possitively .
This book made laugh a lot . Lou's family is so crazy! Will is also so sarcastic and Lou loves it.
I also cried a lot . I couldnt help it . FAT UGLY TEARS

Sadly Shayne had to go back to war.

This book was just WOW!I fell in love with the characters but mostly with the writing style.To be more specific , this book is written like a letter,a letter to her captor, which means that she is refering to him.This is very beautiful because the reader takes part in the story and the book is alive.
Gemma never thought that a friendly stranger could harm her.The story begins when she is in a coffee shop at the airport.There she spots a familiar face but she cant remember whether she has seen him again or not.This beautiful blond guy with those mesmerizing eyes approaches her.He is gentle and he buys her a coffee.However things didnt turn in her favor.Obviously Ty had other plans , for both of them.
The one moment she is speaking to him , the next she wakes up in a deserted place.

She completely freaks out with what happened.She cant help but wondering if this guy will kill her,rape her or gods knows what.However,Ty is not that guy.He didnt bring her with him to torture her but because (view spoiler)[he loves her (hide spoiler)] and he needs company.Living in the middle of nowhere can be a little lonely sometimes.
“How long will you keep me?" I asked. You shrugged. "Forever, of course.”
No matter what Ty does for her , she only thinks of ways to escape but she always ends up hurting herself.
"Wherever I went, you'd only catch me. I couldnt get away."
She is trapped and she feels dead.That place is not alive but Ty tries to make her see the beauty of his world and the beauty of nature. Their relationship is not easy as she cant stop thinking whether she should kill him or wait for him to kill her.It doesnt take her long though to understand that he has no intention to harm her and they start getting closer.
Dont judge me but I think that he was sick.He didnt harm her or treated her bad but his perfectly organised capture didnt take him a few months.(view spoiler)[Hell, he was setting this up for 6 years!! (hide spoiler)]This kind of behaviour is not sane.
In this story Gemma after her pointless efforts of trying to escape she finally accepts what they both agreed to.She starts understanding him and enjoys,as much as she can, the life with him .
[image] [image]
They say that you shouldnt plan your life bacause you never know what will happen.
Gemma's life changed a lot when Ty came.When I was reading this book I couldnt stop thinking that he would eventually (view spoiler)[hurt her (hide spoiler)] but I started trusting him , like Gem did.Ty is crazy and most of the times he doesnt make sense.He is fucked up and he needs someone to comfort him and ease his pain.Imagine how beautiful it would have been if he hadnt kidnapped her and they had met like a couple?He was deprived many things from life but the most important was love and that was what he was seeking.
The ending was (view spoiler)[so heart breaking (hide spoiler)].It was the right thing but still in this book it didnt feel right at all.
“And it's hard to hate someone once you understand them.”
Was she suffering from the stockholm syndrome? Was that real love?
I guess we will never know...
“Lets face it, you did steal me. But you saved my life too. And somewhere in the middle, you showed me a place so different and beautiful, I can never get it out of my mind. And I can't get you out of there either. You're stuck in my brain like my own blood vessels.”
“It happened like this.
I was stolen from an airport. Taken from everything I knew, everything I was used to. Taken to sand and heat, dirt and danger. And he expected me to love him. This is my story.
“You’re like that single wild flower that grows from the crack in the pavement: miraculous growth with no water source or fertile soil. A person walki“You’re like that single wild flower that grows from the crack in the pavement: miraculous growth with no water source or fertile soil. A person walking by would step around that flower to avoid crushing it. It’s not like the field of wild flowers you tromp through carelessly, crushing them under your feet, knowing that the next day will bring a hundred more.”
Raven
[image]
Raven is not a typical girl.She is a car mechanic and the daughter of a whore.She grew up with her mother's hate and away from her father ,who is a pimp.
Jonah
[image]
Jonah is a UFL fighter.He is a womenizer and too frivolous when it comes to a relationship.He lost his dad when he was twelve and that changed him in a bad way.He became a heckler until he discovered that he could use his anger and deal with his pain in a healthier way, by fighting.
Raven starts working for Jonah but she never expected that a guy like him would fall seriously for a girl , as Johah is famous for his one night stands.
[image]
The relationship they develop is strong,true and full of passion.
A lifetime would never be enough of Raven. I'll always hold you when you are scared. Comfort you when you are sad. Take care of you when you are sick. I'll make it a life misssion to make up for every second you were neglected.
[image]
Everything is so sweet between them until Domidick , err Dominick appears.
He is the worst father EVER! When he called her I didnt thought that it would be something important but I was left speechless. [image]
[image]
However , Jonah loves her so much that he is willing to pay any price even if that means that he has to lose a fight , thus losing reputation , disappoint his fans and all those who depend on him.
But these things mean nothing to him when it comes to Raven's safety.
I'll fight for your life as I'd fight for my own.
While I was reading the day of the fight I was so suspicious that something will go wrong.
My feelings: When Candy (a whore) approached Jonah.
All in all , I really loved this book because of the characters and the interesting plot.Jonah changed for her and felt the joy of being in love with someone.Raven is smart and funny.She never believed that he would love her so much and the whole thing between them was very beautiful.
I cannot wait to read Blake's story.I'm very curious to read his book because he is funny and chases anything with boobs , so I think his story will be interesting.

Avery
[image]
Avery is starting college but all she wants is to start a new life. Just consider how lucky she is. She is living next to a HOTTIE.
Cam [image]
They are both attending astronomy and that brings them closer.
[image]
Cam is determined to go out with her so he is asking her everyday but she is always turning him down.
"Go out with me Avery." "No". "See?She keeps turning me down." Jacob shook his head "You're an idiot Avery."
He wants to be close with her so every Sunday he sneaks into her home to make her breakfast. Ususally their breakfast is such a funny time and they are both enjoying it.
“I'm beginning to think cookies is a code word for something else."
"Maybe it is." He tugged on my bag again as he took a confident step back, forcing me down another step. "And just think about it. If cookie was a code word, whatever it symbolizes, it's been in your mouth, sweetheart.”
[image]
As you all understand she fell for him and they finally went on a date.
[image]
Cam's kisses
[image]
“Goodnight, Avery.”
And then he kissed me—kissed me like he’d had right before he’d left the night of our date. Kissed me like he was a man starving for oxygen and I was the only air he needed to breathe. The hand around my neck held me there, raised up on my elbows as his mouth devoured mine. And that was the only word I could use to accurately explained how he kissed me.
Cam devoured me.”
This book was so funny but both of them were hiding a past. A past that they wanted to forget. [image]
It was pretty obvious what happened to Avery and I was very sad because she didnt deserve it. No one does. It kind of hit me when Cam told her what he did.
[image]
Why I loved Cam : He is charming and hot. He is not your typical jerk but nice and funny.He definitely has panty dropping eyes and he is that guy that you'd be proud to bring home.
What I really loved about him? His comfidence.
" So you guys weren't more than just friends with benefits?" Cam sent me a widening glance. "We hooked up once in a while but like I told you this weekend, I haven't been with anyone since I met you." "I know. It just seemed like she wanted more." "Wouldn't you?" "Geez we really need to work on your confidence"
[image]
Why I loved Avery: She is sweet and innocent .She isn't clueless , she is smart and knows how to hide her emotions.
[image]
Cam's parents were amazing and funny people. “You listen here, woman.” “You can listen to my foot up your ass if you call me woman again.” [image]
Avery's parents were ..... "You are lying." "You are ruinning our lives."
[image]

All in all, this was a perfect read for me. This book combined both humor and real life problems.
“When you find your reason for living, hold onto it. Never let it go. Even if it means burning other bridges along the way.”

“When you find your reason for living, hold onto it. Never let it go. Even if it means burning other bridges along the way.”
This book made me a swooning mess.When we first met Rush he was an immature man who lived only to fuck around.Two books later and he has changed a lot.Now he has a girlfriend that he is willing to protect from everyone,including his family.Blaire is the girl that gave meaning to his life and now that they are both in love they have to face and outreach all the difficulties that life has saved for them. In this book you could say that their love is tested.
[image]
It's not a secret that Nan is an egocentric,spoiled b*tch.She has always been Rush's priority but she had never respected what he loved more,Blaire.In this book Nan is messing around with her dad's life and since her dad is a goner perv rockstar he cant even handle her so Rush has to take action.It's wrong that Kiro(her dad) isnt trying to improve their relationship but Nan isnt helping either.She is just b*tching up all the time.There were some parts where I could totally understand her pain but overall she was a DRAMA QUEEN She pissed me off so much. [image] [image]
There was a part of me that got bored to tears!I couldnt wait for them to stop looking after Nan!I wont argue that Rush is a great brother but he unwitingly neglected the most precious thing in his life. [image]
Luckily,he took the right decision and he focused again on his girl. From this part of the book till the end I couldnt stop swooning or smiling like an idiot.Rush is pure perfection.
“Blaire,
This teardrop represents many things. The tears I know you’ve shed over holding your mother’s piece of satin. The tears you’ve shed over each loss you’ve experienced. But it also represents the tears we’ve both shed as we’ve felt the little life inside you begin to move. The tears I’ve shed over the fact I’ve been given someone like you to love. I never imagined anyone like you Blaire. But every time I think about forever with you I’m humbled that you chose me.
This is your something blue.
I love you,
Rush”
[image]
I'm so glad these two people found the HEA that they both deserved.Their journey was a rollrcoster of emotions for us but in the end all the frustration and the tears were replaced by emotions of joy and happiness. I still believe that the author shouldnt have written this book but it was a nice one and I cant wait for Grant's book.
“I’m not ever letting your sexy ass get too far away from me again.” “How far is too far?” I asked. “It’s all too far. I want you right here beside me… forever.”
“Not everyone sees you the way you do. Sometimes our imperfections are what makes us special. - Tripp”

“I love you. I'll never leave you and I swear to you sweetheart that you will never be alone.” Woods [image]" [image]
Oh Woods *sigh*. Reading his book I fell helplessly in love with him .
Woods is the rich guy with the arranged future.He cant bare making his own decisions because of his father who controls his life in all domains.Woods must marry Angelica if he wants to run his family bussiness .
How would you feel if you had to marry the most annoying creature in the world? [image]
“Loosing you would be the only thing that could destroy me” Della [image]
Della wants to run away from her past and start a new life. The idea of starting a journey with no destination sounds appealing to her and there she meets Woods for the first time.
[image]
After a hot night they part their ways but four months later she ends up working for him.Woods cant forget what happened between them , so seeing her everyday will only f*ck his head.However this atraction between them cant be ignored but hot sex is not the answer to Della's problems.When she is with him she forgets life and she feels like an other person but she cant come between him and his fiancee.
You're engaged and Della is your employee. Draw a line and stay behind it.
[image]
It hurts him that he cant have her . Being with his fiancee is difficult and their marriage is only going to make him miserable.
All I can think is being with you again. [image]
Woods doesnt allow his father enforce him marry that shallow girl and he makes the right decision.He doesnt care anymore about the money or the bussiness .He wants to be happy and the only person that makes him happy is Della.
[image]
Della and Woods make the perfect couple.
[image] [image] [image]
Sadly no relationship is easy.
[image]
They have to deal with many things. [image]
[image]
All in all , I loved this book . Woods is a man whore and I really like the fact that he changed for a girl. Actually I never thought that he would have a sweet side but he does.Della is an amazing person.She is strong and confident . She is still dealing with her traumas but Woods is there to make her happy and help her move on. Woods' father is so nonchalant and really cold when it comes to his son's happiness.What he did made me wanna punch him . (view spoiler)[Should I be happy that he died?? (hide spoiler)]
The ending [image]
I'm starting to hate cliffhangers.
When I look at you I see life. I see joy. I see future.

The only thing that Kelsey wants is a new life. [image]
The last six years she is trying hard to escape from the place that held her darkest memories and the pain that her (view spoiler)[father (hide spoiler)] caused her.However she never believed that a guy like Kane would be interested in her.She wants to believe that she is not attracted to him because he seems to be the player type but as she states he is the epitome of sex appeal.
[image]
How not to get butterflies in stomach when someone like him is interested in you? [image]
Their relationship is very beautiful.They fit together like a piece of puzzle and Kane will definitely surprise you.
[image]
[image]
When I close my eyes to sleep ... all I see is your beautiful face.
[image]
Kane has a reputation . One that he is not proud of but now he's changed.He doesnt want to be that guy anymore and he is utterly devoted to Kelsey. (view spoiler)[Yet sometimes she had doubts about his love and I wanted to kill her. (hide spoiler)]
I loved a lot this book but I rated it with 4 starts because it was quite predictable in some points.I have to admit though that I never expected that twist during the last chapters. It left me speechless and full of emotions.
