Shadow's Seduction by Kresley Cole
Dear Agony by Georgia CatesWhat does a woman do when the man she loves is planning his own demise?I couldn't put this book down. It just grabbed me..........Rose and Bastien's story is bittersweet and gut-wrenching. It's filled with love. Pain. Hope. And never giving up. The pull at my heart-strings had me almost in tears near the end of the story.
She gives him something to live for.
The plot is incredible......not going to give out any spoilers...I think that the cover blurb tell it all. Just that it's brilliantly written ....The author's words are sheer poetry......
Dying and Falling in LoveI loved the way Bastien and Rose's characters are developed. We get to see the growth of their relationship, the deep love that surrounds them.............
The Two Just Don't Go Together
I see the conflict in his eyes but it's unnecessary.I hope that there's going to be a follow-up to this book. Would love to see what happens next to Bastien, Rose and their kids and also how about a book for Rose's boss! Now there's a mysterious woman!!!!
Healthy....Sick....I don't care.
I want him exactly how he is.
Wardrobe Malfunction by Samantha Towle“Where do you want me?”Their first meeting has to be one of the most memorable of all time - Charly's first assignment is a fitting with Vaughn.....
Is that a trick question? I cough. “Just over here, please.” He walks toward me, and my vagina thuds in time with his footsteps"
"I'm on my knees in front of Vaugn West. Sure, I'm only pining his pants, but still...................Nothing to difficult...right!!! What could possibly go wrong??? It was the most hysterical and funny scenes ever.....
“ “I just stabbed Vaughn West in the cock with a pin.But wait....even funnier is what Charly does for Vaughn to make sure that his "family jewels" are "looked" after...
I just stabbed the world’s biggest movie star. With a pin. In his cock.”
“ “This woman, whom I’ve known for less than a day, who stabbed me in the ball sack, has made me a cock warmer.”
“I know this is how it’s always going to be with Charly and me. And I like it. I like the challenge she gives me.”I adored these two together. Loved their banter, their interaction and also that this wasn't an insta-love kind of story!!! You get to see the friendship and attraction develop and grow into something more.
“ “And the King of Hollywood spends the next thirty minutes making me come with his mouth and then fucking me from behind like I’m a whore, but the whole time, he still manages to make me feel like a queen.”There were some great secondary characters but my favorite one was definitely Vaughn's grandmother! I absolutely loved her!!!
I have a trip to make....
...yes, La La Land...and no, I am not going to meet Vaughn West....I know, I know, he's gorgeous....
..but I'll leave him for Charly!!!
Black Hearts by Karina Halle
The Butterfly Project by Emma ScottAn unique, powerful and emotional story of love, friendship, redemption, heartache, family, forgiveness, salvation, pain, kindness and humanity.
“Every day it feels less like something I shouldn’t be allowed to have, and more like something precious I can’t throw away.”A beautifully written, inspirational, captivating, gut-wrenching, heart-warming and moving story about two broken people who find love and the power to heal each other.
“…there’s so much that’s shitty in this world, when you find something that shines against all the dirt and darkness, you gravitate toward it.”The two main characters, Zelda and Beckett are beautifully written. Both flawed and with tragic pasts and both trying to do something good and better with their lives.
“Lessening the misery of the past will lead to a brighter future.”This is a book that will stay with me for a long time - not only for all of the above but the message it left for me...........that even when things are dark and feel hopeless in your life, there is always a light somewhere and all you need to do is believe that it is possible.
Dirty Promises by Karina HalleThe violence......after a while I gave up on how many rapes there were in this story.
King of Wall Street by Louise BayNo way could Harper Jayne ever resist him for long!!!!
If you love romance, great characters and a HEA................this is one book I can so recommend.
I am definitely going to be reading more from this author and I can't wait for Grace, Harper's BFF's book, which I am going to start right away!!!
Into the Fire by Jeaniene Frost"Ah, Leotie, my beauteous poppet, I take back everything I said about you being an uppity crone. Take me to your bed, I promise endless delights. I'll even limit myself to tongues only. Always happy to accommodate a preference."
"Grand," Ian said in a tone that implied he felt the opposite. "Does anyone else feel the sudden need for a shag?"And....it just continues..................
"My jaw dropped. "You'd seriously bang a dragon?"This series started off well for me but as it progressed, I kind of felt a bit let down. I missed the romance and love that comes across in the Night Huntress Series - Cat & Bones....who never make an appearance in this book and which I really missed!!!!
"Oh, for days," he responded at once. "Can you imagine the Internet videos? I'd be a bloody legend.”
Bound by Flames by Jeaniene Frost
Wildfire by Anne StuartThing speeded up in the last part of the book....but at times I had a bit of "roll my eyes" moments....
............. these spies sure do the most unbelievable things ever!!!!
Royally Matched by Emma Chasemeets up again (she and the Henry met albeit very briefly in the first book)with the wickedly charming and handsome and carefree fun, lovable and gorgeous Prince........
What a strange pair we are. The sad boy and the frightened girl.What I loved -
“I think you might be a bully, Prince Henry.”The build-up of Henry and Sarah's love story. There were so many sweet and funny moments ...too many to note them down here.....
“Well, in grade school I did enjoy pulling on the girls’ braids. But these days I only tug on a woman’s hair in a very specific situation.” His voice drops lower. “Let me know if you’re like a demonstration.”
The secondary characters were just as engaging........
A funny, sexy, sweet and totally addictive story.
“You shouldn’t be afraid of dying, Sarah—everyone does it. The only thing to be scared of is not living before you do.”
Phantom Kiss by Chloe Neillone of my favorite vampire characters from Chloe Neill's fabulous Chicagoland Vampires Series, are back in a short novella and book #12,5 in the series.
Managed by Kristen CallihanIf you liked Idol, book #1 in Kristen Callihan's Rockstar Series...you're are going to LOVE LOVE the 2nd book, MANAGED. I AM OVER THE MOON........it's Gabriel Scott, the band's manager, who gets his very own book!!! I was absolutely ...hell, let me think what I felt meeting him from the 1st moment...
I flipping LOVED Gabriel Scott & Sophie Darling - is that a fabulicious name or not!!!! The perfect pair! The total opposites! That was made their chemistry off the charts!!! Right from the very beginning when they meet on the plane that is taking Sophie for a job interview and him to sort out some band matter in London.
The first chapters which are set on the flight to London are an FRICKING treat! The dialogue is out of this world....
“ “Oh, I bet you’d find that marvellous; all of us helpless women just smiling and nodding. Though I’m afraid it would never work on me.” “Of course not,” he deadpans. “I’m stuck next to the one afflicted with an apparently incurable case of verbal diarrhoea.” “Says the man who is socially constipated.”
“ “Oh, I bet you’d find that marvelous; all of us helpless women just smiling and nodding. Though I’m afraid it would never work on me.” “Of course not,” he deadpans. “I’m stuck next to the one afflicted with an apparently incurable case of verbal diarrhoea.” “Says the man who is socially constipated.”Sunshine aka Gabriel and Chatty Girl aka Sophie are on a roll and neither is prepared to give in inch, when it's discovered that a) Sophie's interview is for a job with Kill John and b) Gabriel is the band's manager!!! What a pickle!!!
Sophie gets the job...ooh I want her job!!! Taking care of the band's media profile!!! My kind of job and I get to see Gabriel every day! Hell, Sophie...you are a lucky girl!!
The attraction is total mutual....Gabriel suggests that they become friends "with benefits"......“You’ve told me repeatedly now that you find me blindingly attractive.” “That doesn’t mean I like you. Besides, your brand of pretty is like a weapon. You reel victims in with it, just like a vampire does. I wouldn’t be surprised if you sparkle in the sun.” “I cannot believe I’m arguing with a woman who references Twilight.” “The fact that you know I’m referencing Twilight betrays you as a secret Edward-loving fanboy.” His snort is loud and scathing. “Team Jacob all the way.” I can’t help it, my eyes fly open, and I lift a corner of my mask to glare at him. “That’s it. We can never be friends.”Don't u just love the Twilight connection??? Sophie Darling unique and beyond refreshing!!But, really would anyone be able to resist this kind of man wanting to do things to and with you???Not me and certainly not Sophie!! Giving in....of course she does!!! And that is not a spoiler...really!!! It's a given that these two will definitely get together......despite their back and forward denials...“Jesus,” I blurt out, lifting my hand as if to shield my eyes. “It’s like looking into the sun.” “What?” he snaps, those laser-bright eyes narrowing. Oh, this will be fun. “Just stop, will you?” I squint at him. “You’re too hot. It’s too much to take.” This is true, though I’d never have the guts to say so in normal circumstances. “Are you quite well?” he intones, as if he thinks the opposite. “No, you’ve nearly rendered me blind.” I flap a hand. “Do you have an off switch? Maybe put it on low?”These two bring out the best in each other. But before they can continue, both will have to deal with the secrets they both are keeping from each other.........
I loved meeting up with the band members from Idol.....their banter - witty and so much fun - and connection between each other is pretty awesome:“What did I say about speculating?” I warn. “One more word and I’ll have you all doing a music video with synchronized dancing faster than you can say Backstreet Boys.” Whip lifts up a hand. “Okay, geesh. Got it. You two are an impenetrable wall that no one shall gaze upon. No need to go all Simon Cowell on us.”This was an incredible and fabulous reading experience.
“Is he drunk?” Whip asks with some concern. “Naw,” Killian drawls. “All I see are empty water bottles.” “Drowning his sorrows in bottled water. At least he’s not cliché,” Rye murmurs before sitting next to me.”
Loved the epilogue!!! And can't wait for the next book in this series.
If you love a love story filled with romance, with unforgettable characters and following the lives of rockstars...this is a series for you!!I can't recommend reading the series enough!!
And yes....when I turned over to the page.....THE END...........I was still dancing!!!
The Naked Eye: A Novel by Iris Johansen
For All Eternity by Linda Lael Miller
Bought to Carry His Heir by Jane PorterI absolutely hated this story.....Nikos Panos, the Greek billionaire, hires Georgia Nielson to be a surrogate for his child....now, that doesn't sound too bad, right!!! Wrong!!! Guess why he chose Georgia? Because she's smart...yes....because she's healthy.....I guess so....what we do know for sure is that he chose her because she looks EXACTLY like his dead wife!!!!
Seriously!!! I kid you not!!! How weird is that!!!!!
