A Tendency Dark and Dangerous by Emmalyn Danvers

5 Stars

Sitting here wondering what in the world I just read…… Not even sure where to start with this review.

I have never read a book that was in the free-verse format and when I read the synopsis and it stated this it had me totally curious…Can I just say Holy Mackerel I loved this…I read it in a little over an hour, that was with a break and just focussing on the style I was completely impressed. It read so easy and so smooth and there were no little details that didn’t need to be there, I loved how it moved and I hope to read many more books like this.

Now onto the story itself…Ummmm ok, that didn’t go anywhere near like I thought it would, my jaw was on the floor and i sat just staring trying to wrap my head around it. I wanted to scream at Evangeline and I wanted to completely beat another character and shake another one and then I was laughing at others, this just had me a complete hot mess, but I wanted more when I finished. This was an awesome story and had me guessing till the very end.

Don’t let the free-verse turn you away from this book, it worked in every way it was supposed to in my opinion and I have already looked to see if this author has anything else available and I don’t see anything, so I’ll keep watching and hoping that she writes more because this was completely and sincerely Amazing!

Best Foot Forward (The Liberty Lawrence Series Book 1) by Bea Stevens

5 Stars

I read the second book first in this series and when I was finished all I could think of is I have to read the first. I love love love Libby in these books…I can relate to her because Im nothing like her, well not completely but she is someone I would love to be friends with.

I knew going in that I was going to love this book. I was so happy to be able to read about how her and Jack came to be or not to be as the case may be sometimes lol. This story made me laugh out loud on a few occasions but I smiled literally all the way through. I loved Mrs Merrington-Smythe..Next to Libby she was my favorite part of this book well and of course Popsie 🙂

I can seriously see these books being made into a movie and I know I would absolutely love that, they are so much fun and full of fun little twists and turns. I read this one in one sitting and now want to go read the second one again and wait not so patiently for the next.

Loved It!!

4 Stars

After reading the first in this series I was hooked enough to read the second and here I am, I again as I said in my first review am not a fan of this genre but the first one grabbed me enough that I had to read this one and follow Dahlia on her continued journey. I might have liked this one even more than the first and although Im still not sold on this genre I have become a fan of this author and how she weaves her words and tells a story.

There was a lot of action in this book, but I found it very easy to follow and did like Dahlia a whole lot more than I did in the first. I like that these characters are flawed and don’t pretend to be these perfect characters in a fairy tale and this is definitely not a fairy tale and it was full of twists and surprising turns that had me on the edge of my seat the whole way.

I highly recommend this author to everyone and this book as well as the first especially if this is a chosen genre of yours.

This is my second read by this author and in this case, the second time is the charm, I just finished my reread of this book. The first time I read it I had so much going on I could not give it the attention it deserved so had to give it another try. I had planned to give this book 4 stars after my first read through but after reading it again, laughing out loud more than once and sincerely enjoying the journey to an ending I had kind of figured out early on I had to give this book and this author 5 stars. Predictable early on yes, but predicting how they would get there..No and I so loved this story.

Elliot and Fe were a lot of fun and I loved their interaction and their friendship..I also totally enjoyed all of the other characters and how they were written in this story.

All in all I really and truthfully enjoyed reading this and I love the writing style, it makes for a really easy flowing read and I can’t wait to read more from this author.

I highly recommend this book and this author. I will be going back and looking at what else she has available and watching for whatever she has in store for the future.

Loved it!!

She won me over with The Prestian Series, and now the first book of Torzial already has me totally hooked. I couldn’t wait for Jenny’s story and I’m so glad she gets not only 1 book but her own series, and I love that Kate and Chase are still right there in the mix.

I love the way this author tells a story, and how easy her books are to read and fall for. There’s always a lot going on and for me that’s always a plus if its easy to keep up with and follow, which always is with this author.

Jennys had some bad things happen to her and by someone she truly trusted and when she finds herself unable to turn away from Brian whose lifestyle should totally scare her away she finds herself battling demons from her past that are still in her life and trying to learn to trust again.

I can not wait to jump into the next part of Jenny and Brian’s story…this is already proving to be another series I get hooked on and totally immersed in. You could start right here with Jenny’s story I suppose, but my extremely high recommendation is to read The Prestian Series first, this is where you will meet Jenny and also get Katarina and Chase’s story.

Loved it!!

After reading the synopsis for this book I knew I had to read it, I’ve never read anything by this author before so that was another reason I had to try it and am I glad I did. This story just flowed so beautifully and I had a hard time putting it down.

I really liked the storyline and although I kind of knew how it would end I had no idea how they would get to the end and that was the part I enjoyed…The building of a relationship and learning to trust after heart ache and hurt from the past was done in an awesome way. I loved both of these characters, although Sacha took a bit longer to win me over, once she did I couldnt help but pull for these two people. I loved the secondary characters in the story as well, Sachas best friend Melanie was awesome and knowing she gets the next book will make it that much harder to wait. I loved the family part of this story as well, but I think my favorite person aside from Gibson and Sacha was Marvil, he made me smile and also broke my heart.

I love a book that makes me feel the emotions I’m reading and this one did that and I can not wait for Melanie’s story and to get to know more about Spencer in the next book.

I’m so glad I picked this book up and will be looking at what else this author has available while I wait for book 2.

Loved it!!

OMG I love these books and this author…It was also fun with this book running along side Eye of The Storm, I’ve not read many books that have done this and it was kind of fun…well fun in that they are at the same time but not so fun in the storyline. WOW…this one was awesome…I love all of them and can not pick a favorite but this one knocked my socks off…I was so looking forward to more about Hannah after reading Eye of The Storm and I absolutely got what I wanted in this book. I usually do not like flashbacks but the way this author handled them in this story first off made them mandatory and the way it was handled flowed perfectly.

I love how these books take the twists and turns to a new level and there is always a lot of them…I love this, and I Loved the way this storyline played out. Jack standing by refusing to leave Hannah behind even when all the evidence pointed straight at her as being guilty.

Not going into any more of the storyline, I just know that my heart broke many times as stories came out about Hannah’s past and I had so much respect for Jack in this story.

Im praying there is a lot more to come for the Gray Ghost team and I also know that I’ll be rereading this series many times 🙂

Loved It!!

Pandora’s Poison (Hart & Cole Book 2) by Sacha T. Y. Fortuné

5+++++++ Stars

**Sigh**

Climbing the Walls was absolutely one of my favorite books of 2018 and this…Part 2 I can promise when 2019 ends Pandora’s Poison will be still one of my favorites for the year and I haven’t even gotten to part 3 yet….

This author has a way with her writing and the word that comes to mind first is hypnotizing, mesmerizing…I don’t know how she does it but every word draws me in and I just can not put it down. My first warning to you is…Do not even try picking this book up without first reading Climbing The Walls…It wont work, you don’t have the whole story and won’t be able to form a complete picture of what Darren and Luisa’s story is all about.

I loved this…I loved getting inside Darren and Luisa’s minds, and I’m so thankful this author gave us that opportunity instead of just getting one of them. Everything felt so so real, it isn’t a storybook it is a real life book where no matter what you have experienced in your life you can actually feel the emotions seeping in, and that is what I’ve come to realize with this author, when I pick her books up I need to be prepared to face reality and feel the emotions because that’s what she gives me.

Im completely invested in these people, all of them and can not even predict what is going to happen in Book 3, I have a feeling there will be a couple more POV’s involved and Im praying that some things Im worried about do not happen…I finish these books a complete mess and having books touch me in that way make for some of my favorites to date…I said this after reading Climbing The Walls and my thoughts haven’t changed…I will have this series sitting on my bookshelf and know that I will be reading them over and over again….

I don’t have to say how much I’m looking forward to reading Pandora’s Price even if the title scares me a bit I will be the first in line to open this book.

By Gwyn McNamee

5 +++++++ Stars

So I have done a bit of binge reading…I had only read Savage Collision before this book was released so could not read this one till I completed the other two and now I have a bonafide Hawke Family hangover and am so so sad that I don’t have another to move on to. I love this family and all those that have come along and joined it. Each story is unique and has something different to offer but the one constant throughout is the family ties which is one of my favorite things in my books. Then of course there’s the way this author twists these stories and you just sit there not knowing what is going to happen or when it’s going to happen. This one had me lost on the impending twist, I usually have some idea of what might happen but this one threw me and for some reason I didn’t see it coming till it was obvious.

My heart was broken in two at the end of Stone Sober and it didn’t mend till quite a ways into this one. That’s one of the reasons I love this author so so much, when I read her books I just know I’m in for an emotional ride and when that ride ends it always leaves me wanting so much more. I know this can’t be it…There’s more story to tell for this family especially with characters that have appeared back and you just know there’s more drama ahead and I for one CAN NOT WAIT!!

Do not even attempt to read these books out of order…It will not work and besides this author is brilliant and you don’t want to miss a single word 🙂

OMG..These book are killing me….I knew when I opened this one it was going to be an emotional one and I was so right….So much going on I don’t even know where to start.

I knew when reading Books 1 & 2 that somewhere along the way Stone would get his story and I knew there had to be a lot more to him than what I was seeing previously. As unsure of him as I was it did not take long to fall head over heels for this guy. As his story unfolds everything about him starts making sense and the way he felt about Nora…sigh…He tried to do the right thing and stay away from her but he just couldn’t help it. Nora is Dani’s sister and the sole reason that Dani met Savage when she did. I loved Nora…her cute ways of trying not to swear made me smile. She wasn’t all innocent and pure but was definitely not the type of woman that would stir Stone normally. Dani also tried to stay away from him but the draw was too strong and watching her struggle with how much she found herself loving all that Stone was and had to offer made complete sense.

It was the rest of the story that had me all messed up…So many things that came out of left field and made my jaw drop…This had my feelings all over the place, I went from being totally angry to completely heartbroken many times and I could not predict how this one was going to end, at one point I thought omg there’s not enough time for some of this to be dealt with but once again this author had everything under control and my love for her writing just gets stronger the more I read. So many things still to come and I’ve already got the next ready to go and can not wait to jump back in to this amazing family…

Trust me…Start from the beginning, do not read these out of order…

On to Book 4…..

5+++++ Stars

It has been awhile since I read Savage Collision and I’ll admit I kinda forgot just how much I love this author and her books, and how I absolutely couldn’t wait for the next in the Hawke Series. I loved Skyes story and everything that went with it. This author knows how to hook you on page 1 and literally won’t let you go even after you finish and that’s because she lets you in just a bit on what is coming next and thankfully I have the next sitting here waiting for me to start.

I love this family and those that are part of it even if they aren’t, like Gabe, who has been a part of the family for over 20 years and Savage’s best friend, which is why wanting Savage’s little sister is such a bad idea, especially when he is dealing with so many ghosts haunting him from his past.

Skye Hawke, Savage’s little sister who has tried very hard to push everyone away and cant seem to get over the loss of her twin sister. She threw herself at Gabe at Savage and Dani’s wedding and was rejected and knows that pursuing him will do nothing but cause problems within the family, but can she help herself?

I loved this story, and this family…I have become emotionally invested in all of them and love how this author can throw in some twists that you don’t see coming. This was an off the charts hot yet emotional read and I can not wait to dive in to Stone’s story.

Highly recommend, but don’t read these out of order, they all tie together and you really need all the pieces to fit!

Loved It!!

This is my first book by this author and I really enjoyed it. I loved the writing and the style of writing and the way it flowed. I read it in 2 sittings and really want to look at what else this author has available.

The only problem I had with the whole book was the character of Amy…I just could not connect with her no matter how hard I tried, and that is not the authors fault that is all on me. I didn’t hate her I just never could find a way to understand her. On the other hand Richie was amazing and he is what had me hooked on this story, and the ending was perfect. I also loved the little bit of Christmas I was able to hang on to for just a bit longer this year.

I can not wait to look at what else this author has available because as I said the writing style was spot on for me.

This is my second book in this series and also by this author, I loved book 4 and was happy to revisit Josie’s bookstore.

This story had me hooked from page 1, I love how the author took a real life issue and turned it into part of who Lily was and it was written beautifully. Then tackling another real life problem with Webb. I loved everything about this story. I started it thinking i’ll just get it started and read it throughout my day but that didn’t work, I ended up reading it in one sitting. The words flowed too perfect to put down and my interest stayed glued to my kindle the whole book.

I still have to download and read the first 3 of this series and will as soon as i can, but rest assured this can be read as a stand alone. I just can’t wait to put the whole series together and read them all one right after the other..Its that good!

Can’t wait to see if there is more to come.

Loved it.

I’ve lost track of how many of this authors books I have read, I absolutely love all that she writes and will continue reading everything she comes out with.

I loved this story, second chances are always a winner for me and I loved the little bit of drama that went with it..The ending was my favorite of all of her endings and I could close my eyes and actually feel like I was right there watching it all happen. I think I could have actually done without the character of Slater in this story, or most of his part anyway and it actually scared me a bit that this story was going to end a totally different way and I’m so thankful it did not.

Even though this story is #3 in the Night Moves Series it can absolutely be read as a stand alone but the other two were completely amazing so pick them up as well, you won’t be sorry.

Can’t wait to see what this author comes up with next, but rest assured I’ll be one of the first in line for whatever that might be.

This is my first book by this author and it’s a genre I don’t normally read but the synopsis had me completely curious and I’m glad I took the chance. This was a great book and the storyline was unique and felt real enough that I almost could believe that Dahlia and her kind really do exist.

The beginning had me a bit confused but it didn’t take long to fall into a rhythm with the story. I started out not liking the character of Dahlia, the beginning made it very hard to find any sympathy for her. When she was forced to run away from her own world and found herself hiding in the human world I started looking at her differently and by the end of this first book she had grown on me.

While I am still not completely in love with this genre I found that the writing was simply amazing and it was a very smooth flowing and it was enough that I absolutely must read the next in the series.

I spent a little bit of this book totally confused as to what was going on…when it finally sunk in I was totally hooked. I love this author and her creative storylines. After reading her Ash Park series I was already a forever fan and this one just strengthened that. One of the reasons I love this author so much is because she has taken a genre that I do not read and made me read it and look forward to reading more.

This one creeped me out a bit but I could not put it down, and as always I try to figure it out as I go…well I should have already known that wouldn’t work with this authors writing. The ending totally twisted me up and all the way through i would think aha I got it..just to say in the next few pages…no i don’t LOL

Not going to go into the details of this story..Read it, and if you feel a little confused at some points..Stick with it, it’ll all make sense I promise.

Loved it and can’t wait for more from this amazingly talented author!

Oh My Goodness I love this series, my only negative about this series right now is that there isn’t another one I can jump right in to! LOL

I love the whole MC being completely different than I’ve ever read and I’ve said it before, Ill always love my MC books but this one is such a refreshing change in how an MC runs.

There is a lot going on in this story and a lot of people and normally this would get confusing but this author has a way of it all making sense and i never got confused. I loved Winter and Eagle and I was literally feeling the same emotions that were being written and that is what makes books work for me the most is the writing turning all these emotions into reality. I sincerely love this author and even though there’s an answer I have to wait for the next book to receive Im ok with that because it was just that good!

You truly must read the first book before starting this one so that you get the full effect of this cast of characters.

This whole collection is one that I will reread every year around Christmas. Many of the authors in this anthology are ones that I already follow on a regular basis but there were quite a few that this was my first read by them and this is what I love about anthologies like this, You come because of authors you know, but you stay because the others also draw you in and won’t let go.

I believe Id give 4 or 5 stars to every story in this collection and can’t wait to check out more from all of these authors.

If I were to pull out just a couple stories it would be Allyson R Abbott and Tamara Ferguson and this is not easy because there were so many I loved, but these two are absolute go to’s for me when I need a comforting read. Miss Abbotts was a bit different than I’m used to from her and I was impressed at how she handled it, and Miss Ferguson gave me the sweetness I love reading during the holidays.

I can not recommend this whole collection enough, it has everything and there’s no way it won’t satisfy everyone who loves to read in one way or the other.

Loved It!

WOW!! This is my 3rd read by this author…Its been awhile since I have picked up the other 2 books and I totally forgot just how much I love this author. This book had me completely hooked and as I was reading I found myself going back to make sure I had every single detail correct. When I finished I had to go back and look at my reviews for the other 2 and was not surprised that those 2 books completely blew me away as well.

This story was outstanding and I went in knowing it was an MC story but so impressed at how different this author treated this MC, it’s not like any other I have ever read, and although I will always love my MC books I also love the direction this author went. A few scenes were hard to read and I found myself flinching and would have definitely closed my eyes had I been watching these scenes on TV, but I fell head over heels for these characters and Kits story about broke me and Lee listening to it was so emotional, I had tears more than once and there was a twist to this book that came right out of left field, had no clue and was absolutely not expecting it.

I’m not going into any more details about the story itself, it needs to be read to fully appreciate it and I can not wait to dive in to book 2. Take my advice and read this story, better yet read all of this author’s stories…They are amazing and although I can’t put into words what it is about the style of writing I can say I love love love it!!

Now..onto book 2…..

This is my second book by this author and I enjoyed it as much as the first one. I enjoy the writing style and her characters always seem to grab me right from the start, this one had me thinking I had things figured out only to be totally wrong and sitting on the edge of my seat.

This one was a bit more emotional than the first one I read and had me a hot mess through most of the book. Two completely broken people who seem to have too many differences to make it work seem to find a way to fit perfectly. I loved how strong Perrin was and with her attitude and living life loving adventures and taking chances it made me want to be her friend and her loyalty to friends and family was awesome. Im impressed by how this author handled Emil and how she tackled his PTSD it was written beautifully and had my emotions all over the place. I loved the inner dialogues that were portrayed by these characters.

I absolutely loved this story and have already added this author to my one click list, I can’t recommend it enough and also can’t wait for more from this author. I also want to learn Bachata dancing, I googled it and love it!

Amazing!

5+++++ Stars

I have read many of this authors books, all of them The Satan’s Devils Tucson chapter and I love every one that I have read..I have become emotionally invested in all of these people but I have to say and this isn’t easy because each one is perfection…This one is my favorite as of right now. I don’t really know why but many aspects of this story had me so hooked and I sincerely did not want this book to end. Miss Mellett has absolutely positively outdone herself with this new Colorado chapter of the Satan’s Devils MC.

I’ll be honest I was worried about the change of location, the change of members, and most of all leaving behind those that I had grown to love but the way this was handled was perfectly brilliant in my opinion. Reading the different POV’s and never wondering or getting confused about what was going on made this transition for me very simple. Moira’s story was probably the most real story I’ve read in a long time…her thoughts, her fears everything was written and described in a way that would have any woman even nearing “that time” appreciating how real this story was and omg Hellfire..one of my favorite characters EVER..again with the real life stuff and just his character is unlike many other stories I’ve read.

Then..I haven’t even mentioned Pal and Jay who were the ones in the story I could relate to because they were the ones forced to make all the changes with location and learning all over again who you could and couldn’t trust.

I literally could probably write a 4 page review about this book, I have to stop because there are too many things I want to say. There is a lot going on in this book and it has me wanting the next like right now! I can’t wait for Demons story in Colorado and then Thankfully I get to go back to Tucson for Blades story…

LOVE LOVE LOVE this author, this series and knowing what is still to come.

(This can absolutely be read without reading the books before but i DO NOT recommend this…You would be missing out on so so much if you don’t read them all!)

I actually found myself crying through many parts of this story, and it was written so beautifully and felt so very real. There was 2 or even maybe 3 stories going on in this one book in my opinion and they were all Elena’s. I love how the author weaved them all into one and I’ll be honest I didn’t want the book to end. I can’t really explain it without going into too much detail and ruining it for someone else. I’m not normally a fan of flashing back in time but the way this was done in this book was spot on and very much needed to get the full impact of where Elena was in her life and how she got there, and then there was West! I could gush about him for the rest of this review but I’m not going to…

I can’t recommend this story enough, I can see this story touching different people in different ways but I know how it touched me and it is a definite reread for me somewhere in the near future.

I absolutely Loved it!!!

This was my second book by this author and I sincerely enjoyed it. For some reason it turned out to be totally different than I thought it would and this pleased me. It was actually a fun read and I enjoyed the bantering back and forth between Vir and Soumya, and I especially liked the storyline..It was different and refreshing.

This author won me over in my first read and this one just strengthened that…I love the style of writing and how easy her stories are to read. I can not wait to read more and will be checking out whatever else she has available and whatever else becomes available.

I highly recommend this story!

(I can’t forget to mention that the cover is absolutely beautiful)

I finished this book yesterday and had to let my mind process what I read before I wrote this review. This is my second book by this author and I think I have some of the same feelings as after finishing the first one I read. Definitely a great mystery involving some of the characters in this story and even though it had a whirlwind romance involved, the way it was written made it feel very real, not forced.

I lost my mother-in-law a few years back and our relationship was never the greatest since I took her youngest of 7 sons, it still made me wish I could hug her by the time I finished reading this story. I guess the only seriously confusing part was, why in the heck did it take Victoria so long to make the decisions she made. I wouldn’t have lasted a day!

I’m not going to go into any detail regarding this story..You have to read it to truly appreciate it, and I can absolutely see this book becoming a made for TV movie. The ending had me wanting to scream, throw my kindle, and cry all at the same time.

This author has become someone I look forward to reading. She messes with your mind and you don’t even realize it is happening while your reading. I Love That.

Can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next!

This was a one sitting read for me…Loved It!!

I can not believe this series is over 🙁 This story had me a hot mess and started right in on page 1 and never let go till the end and then it stayed with me for a bit after.

There was a lot going on in this story, we met a lot of new people and visited many new places..I loved this part and I felt as if I was right there with Wren as she was making quick decisions and having a lot of inner battles…I found myself trying to help her and felt like I was feeling everything she was. This character has grown so much through these books and I have totally fallen in love with her, and poor Hale…I miss what feels like the old days with Hale and now there he is regretting so many things, this made me sad.

I’m not going into any more than that. You have to read this, the twists and turns had me on the edge of my seat the whole book. This author has done an amazing job with this series. I’ve loved every word and every page of all of these books. I absolutely can not wait to read them all again!! She ended this series beautifully and in my humble opinion sets the bar high for any other books in this genre.

Brilliant and I can’t wait to read what is to come from this author!! This is one of those books/series that deserves so much more than 5 stars.

I have read so many of this authors books and I think all of these in this series…I love them all..when I saw this one it was a no brainer….and it just might be my favorite of all of them…Well for today it is, I think in a small way each one holds that title.

Brett was awesome, so sweet and carried the friend zone title well, until he didn’t LOL Liv I think is my favorite kind of female lead..She had me cracking up and these people made me want to know them.

I love this author and her writing always grabs me at page 1 and I don’t want to put the book down and this one was no different, I read it in one sitting and actually tried to slow my reading so it wouldn’t end. I really want to go back and read all of these again back to back. I can’t recommend this book and this series and this author enough.

I will be the first in line for the next one.

Awesome!!

I loved this so much! This was a fast paced, quick read in one sitting kind of story. I truly enjoyed the storyline and love how this author has set up the beginning of this series.

This is my first read by this author and I found the flow to be smooth and absolutely can not wait to read more. Well let me rephrase that, I MUST read more after that ending.

I loved the characters and I especially loved how different the story involving vampires was. I have read a lot of vampire stories in the past and was pleasantly surprised at how this one was told.

I highly recommend this story, I’m not going into any details, I went in to this completely blind and this is one of those books I am so glad I did.

Can’t wait for the next in this series.

This is my first read by this author and I am in love..This book touched every emotion and the flow of the words were simply perfection. The only negative I have about this book was that it ended, I could have read this story for so many more pages. So I will absolutely be checking out everything else available. It only took a couple pages for me to fall completely for these characters…My heart broke when he received the letter and can’t imagine how he felt knowing he had to tell his girl, and then I try to imagine how she felt when she found out he was leaving.

I cried more than once while reading this story and just love how this author made me feel like I was living in 1952 and everything just felt so real and I’m sure that this story would hit hard many that lived through and experienced these exact times. I was a complete mess throughout.

I can’t recommend this story enough it’s an awesome story written perfectly!

I totally absolutely no doubt about it love this author and anything she writes. This one right here might just be one of my favorites, which is saying a lot because everyone of them are out of this world amazing!

I loved this storyline and the character building was awesome. I was an absolute mess through most of this book…I was either laughing uncontrollably, or my heart was breaking, or through most of it I was swooning over the sweetness of Theo and Hadley together, and the way Hadley’s family was with them. One of my favorite lines was “ Your dad put me in time out” LOL

This book was exactly what I needed after some of the heavier books I’ve been reading lately and I already can’t wait to read it again.

This is one of those stories that deserve more than 5 stars 🙂

🙁 It’s over…I don’t want it to be over! This last part of this series was just as fresh and exciting as the first one, I never lost interest or got bored at any point during my reading of this series. I’m quite content with how it ended as far as the storyline and how this author wrapped things up, I’m just so very sad that it’s done.

I have sincerely enjoyed Katarina and Chase’s journey, it was definitely a bumpy ride and wasn’t always sunshine and rainbows. Through all the other things going on in the stories you could actually feel how their relationship was building and progressing and the push and pull just made them stronger.

This author has definitely become a favorite of mine and I was so happy to see that Jenny is getting her own story and that our possibilities of seeing Chase and Katarina again are quite high.

You truly must read this series but don’t do it out of order, trust me you need the whole story!

Loved Loved Loved it and can’t wait to re-read this in the future.
