Book Review – The Boots My Mother Gave Me by Brooklyn James

May 14, 2013

The Boots My Mother Gave Me Eloquently written and a definite take on the whole “coming of age” theme. It’s a lengthy journey that leads us through a teen’s eyes, and takes us well into her adult life as she is maturing, fearing and facing challenges head on. Harley’s focus is getting out of town [...]

Book Review – Promise Me Darkness by Paige Weaver

May 11, 2013

Promise Me Darkness Okay, so I see where you guys were going with the “just stick with it, it totally changes” thing. I was reading along, and even put it down for a week, ’cause I wasn’t seeing anything different yet. I wasn’t “hooked”. I was almost at 30% and it just wasn’t different enough [...]

Book Review – A Moment by Marie Hall

May 10, 2013

A Moment (Moments Series, New Adult Romance: Book 1) Labelled new adult, and has all of the characteristics of a “new adult” read (young twenty-somethings with past struggles making their way into their adulthood). And the hero was a hardened ex-military now MMA fighter (yep, that sold me and I one-clicked it on Amazon without even [...]

Book Review – Twisted Perfection by Abbi Glines

May 1, 2013

Twisted Perfection Another “sweet candy” read by an author that has delivered one of my favorite steamy sweet reads in the past (see my Fallen Too Far review). This one was quick and easy and I’d say on the heat level, absolutely the hottest Abbi Glines book yet. Apparently I had quite the face on me [...]

Book Review – Mafia Captive by Kitty Thomas

April 20, 2013

Mafia Captive I haven’t read all of Kitty Thomas’s books yet, but I’m already a HUGE fan. There’s a certain addictive quality to her writing and her dark tales that ensure I will read every single Kitty book out of her repertoire (and the sooner, the better). I just can’t get enough. Plus!! She’s one [...]

Book Review – Connected by Kim Karr

March 31, 2013

Connected (Connections) I just finished this one and while I wasn’t all-out connected to it, there was a mysterious undertone that certainly kept me reading. I had suspicions, discussed it with my husband, and sure enough… Mr. “I can correctly guess the end of every movie” had this one right, too. P.S. After ruining a [...]

Book Review – Lover At Last by J.R. Ward

March 28, 2013

Lover At Last: A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood To say I was dying to finally get to Blay and Qhuinn’s story is an understatement. I have been feeling them for a few books now, and was thrilled they (and we) were finally going to explore their potential. Their magic. After all, I was crushing [...]

Book Review – Never Too Far by Abbi Glines

March 3, 2013

Never Too Far (Fallen Too Far) The 2nd installment in Rush and Blaire’s saga was woooooohoooooo steeeeeamy!!! Whoa. I can’t exactly remember if the first one was like that (I have a feeling it was, but my Rush-crush was my main focus at that time), but at one point in this one? I just…  My [...]
