Reading Order Guide:

V.C. Andrews – Dollanganger Series Reading Order

By 20 Comments

<— SUPER-SALE ALERT!!! And HOLY MOLY YOU GUYS!! Remember THIS one? I think it kick-started SO many of our reading addictions. This was certainly one of my “firsts”. And a ton of us read it when we were way too young. LOL! Kids… teens?

I think I was 13 or maybe 12. Completely inappropriate but OMG I LOVED this book like crazy. It totally marked me. There were so many facets of this book to keep me hooked me and I couldn’t out it down. The abuse, the horrific living conditions, the need to connect and to love and the subsequent results of those needs. GAH!! Taboo, and gut-wrenching and so confusing and SOOOOOO GOOD! read more

Charlotte Stein – Under the Skin Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

I’m a HUGE fan of another one of this author’s books (Sheltered blew my mind!!), so I’m highly intrigued if these have that same *oomph* factor! *waggles eyebrows* I swear in that one shortish book, she had me titillated, nervous, super-steamed up, and terrified. All of the “forbidden” fun and fear-factor, and SO intense, my friends.

Jean: I got Forbidden AND Intrusion by Charlotte Stein because I just read a short book of hers…..Sheltered…. and really loved it! OK, I’m done now! read more

So far, both books #1 & #2 are making many of our fellow readers crazy-in-love! It’s a bit of a circus. 😉 Sexy magicians, fire breathing bad-asses, and the girls that fall in love with them… (I’m currently reading book #2)…

Ro: Maryse!!! You have got to put Six of Hearts at the top of your to-read list stat. Spent the whole night reading it anddddd I’ll guarantee you might love it even more than painted faces. So so so good. Finally, a story I don’t mind re-reading again. All-time fave for 2014. Ok I don’t want to hype it up too much LOL. read more

Georgia Cates – The Sin Trilogy Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

Book #3 was JUST RELEASED and this series is now complete! I know we have a bunch of Georgia Cates fans here with her “Beauty” series, and this one sounds so good, too!

Brenda is loving it!

“One last Sin, Georgia Cates. Loving it!!!!! It has everything I love.”

About book #1:

Bleu MacAllister is consumed. A horrific childhood incident has caused every decision in her life to revolve around bringing a monster to justice. With years spent studying The Fellowship, a Scottish organized crime brotherhood of liars, thieves, and killers, Bleu will rely on her skills as a special agent to cut Thane Breckenridge off at the knees. But walking hand in hand with retribution means risking collateral damage, in the form of Breckenridge’s son Sinclair—until Sin becomes so much more than Bleu bargained for. She’s always known this undertaking would place her life in danger—she never imagined her heart would be as well. read more
