The quote I chose for Zen is: “If I’d known that this was the way I’d meet the swim star I’d admired since I was a teenager, I would’ve worn some perfume or at least a little more makeup. I never expected it to be this intimate.”
Sebastian, aka Seb, is a known Olympic Swimmer. He’s going back to his hometown after being away for years. This is the place where he learned to swim. The quote I chose for Seb is: “I’m serious, Zenia. I’m not throwing out empty compliments to win you over, I swear. I really mean it. I see how you talk to people, even with your family, your sister. It’s within you, this force of support and motivation. Your sweet, genuine nature makes it easier for people to believe when you tell them they can achieve anything, that their dreams are attainable. I saw it yesterday when you were talking to new clients. You honestly want to help them triumph in whatever goals they set for themselves. It’s really admirable and much more selfless than what goes on in my world of glitzy functions and media exploits.”
This is a fantastic book and I highly recommend it for you!

This is a very good book. As the first I’ve read by the author I can say Jacks has a new follower. She knows how to create characters you wish you could join.
Kara, a college student, finds that her summer is going to be boring without her best friend. She decides to join him on his adventure, but she’ll be getting one of her own. The quote I chose for Kara is: “Don’t worry, I won’t get any romantic feelings towards you. I don’t want your head getting any bigger.”
Julian, Bear, is the heir of Blue Oaks Theme Park. He loves skateboarding and wants to make a summer out of it. When Kara shows up it reminds him of what he can’t do. The quote I chose for Bear is: “I’m just messing with you. You’re cute when you’re flustered.”
If you want romance then this is for you. Highly recommended for anyone!
I have read a few books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. This has been one of my favorite series of this year. I can see this turning into a television series or movies. These characters suck you into their world like you never left. This is the collection of books four through six. The names of these books are Depression, Acceptance, and Hero. You do need to read the first three books to understand what is going on. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately and I read it all the way through. It only took me a few hours to devour this addictive book.
Friday is still learning how to be a great superhero. She loves going to her school but the crime is getting worse and she doesn’t know why. Friday gets an unexpected visit from a well known villain and he tells her some top secret information that changes everything in her new life. She also is now on a new team and she meets Luke which is a nice guy but even though Ashley is a villain she still cares for him. Will Friday find out why the crime is increasing or is danger lurking right in front of her?

Hero High:: Heartbreak Rebellion (Hero High Collections Book 2) by Mina Chara
Chara has done it again! Hero High is an amazing series and I hope there’s more. If I could give this more than 5 stars then I would. If you like Fantasy this is the book for you.
Friday, Fitz, is left with the fact that Ashley is no longer at Hero High. Then things change. Villains aren’t villains? Things aren’t what they seem. The quote I chose for Friday is: “And how’s that supposed to work? That’s not a conclusion! Fine me all you want, I’m not finishing your show!”
Ashley, Dr. Dangerous, is moved to the villain school. His mother is back in the picture, but she’s not exactly what you can call nice. His mother starts controlling people including him. The quote I chose for Ashley is: “Even if I wanted to help, Friday, I can’t. I’m surprised you’re even talking to me.”
