Two of my favorite books are on super-bargain sale today! “The Edge of Never” & “Collide”

By 3 Comments

A couple of our fellow reading-addicts discovered that these are on sale! (thank you Nancy & Jules!!) These are two of my absolute favorites and I couldn’t resist dedicating a post to them again. I personally LOVED and highly recommend them. Now I’m assuming the majority of you have already read these as we can’t stop raving about them, and we all usually read the each other’s favorites. 😀 But…. just in case you’re new here (WELCOME!!!) or just in case you’ve been holding off, I must remind you. Both are re-read worthy and SO emotionally investing. read more

Latest Bargain e-Books – Friday March 8th 2013

By 24 Comments

Fantastic new deals on this list (most of them recommended by our fellow book-fanatics), plus some of my own favorites that are temporarily super-bargain priced!!

Since I’m on a Karina Halle kick again (she’s got a new release coming out in a few days) I want to feature Sins & Needles (The Artists Trilogy #1) <— fantastic, fun and furious! And the prequel which is the one that will be released any day now (On Every Street)… Rocked. My. World. Whoo! Cam who? That’s right, I’m team Javier. 😉 Oh don’t scowl at me, I know what you Cam-lovers are thinking. OF COURSE he rocks, and is… you know. Amaaaaazing and all that. Yes, yes of course!!! But Javier gave me a few serious adrenaline rushes. Fear induced, and swoon-induced. Wow. Talk about intense. I LOVE being emotionally confused about the “book-bad-guy”. So fun!!!! read more

Teaser Time! Karina Halle’s “On Every Street” teaser (and a mini “pre-review”)…

By 12 Comments

<—- I LOVE THIS BOOK!!! I read this novella “prequel” (which is over 100 pages!!) this week and I must say… it is BIG on intensity and really packs a punch. Karina Halle’s “On Every Street” (prequel to her hit “Sins & Needles (The Artists Trilogy #1)“) will be out within the next few days and I highly recommend you guys JUMP ON IT!!!!

If this is the “prequel” should you read it first, or Sins & Needles first?

Hrmmm… good question. I read Sins first (since it was released first) and enjoyed it immensely. But… I had a certain feeling about a character in that book. A focus-shift. And this prequel fulfilled a need and I was thrilled that she “went there”! I loved Sins and Needles, but this one… it made me desperate for more.

I even told Karina:

I’m jealous of those that get read this one first, and then get into Sins & Needles anticipating more… after this major revelation.

What a character revelation on both parts! If you decide to read the prequel before Sins & Needles, I don’t think it will hurt at all. You’ll just experience “Sins” a bit differently than those of us that read Sins first. Let’s just say… you might be team someone else… and going into Sins, you *may* have a different focus. I’m a sucker for the underdog. The anti-hero. The bad guy. *shrug* 😉

So yeah… it’s not out yet, but when it does come out, grab it and enjoy a few intense hours of passionate, borderline-crazy love. So good! But then again, if you haven’t read Sins yet… what are you waiting for!!??

Oh and here’s the teaser (below – it’s a substantial teaser) from the prequel and there are NO spoilers here. Everyone can read it.
