Hostage by N.S. Moore – expected release date September 10th 2014 <—- Okay admittedly, so I don’t know this author, or the story (or past work) or anything. I just heard of this one today, and you know me… the blurb, the cover and that title have my attention! 
“Before Code. And after him. I didn’t know then what he would be to me. I didn’t know how he would transform the fabric of my existence. I didn’t know he would move me, reshape me, mold me into someone else, someone I wanted to be. Afterwards, he would become my lover, my savior, my hope, and my strength. But, before that, he was my hostage-taker.” <— Eeeeep! 
I am happily addicted to reading but I need to expend my book energy (especially when one puts me in an emotional frenzy - SO fun!). So, I release my feelings about the stories, by writing them down here. It's my book therapy.

I’ve been patiently waiting for Happenstance 2. Yeaa me, it’s out. There are a couple of others coming out that I think are continuations for me too. Can’t wait! Thanks so much for all the updates.
Finally a release date for Captivated by You. I’ll have to re-read because it’s been so long since book #3. Wish it was the last book in the series, because it is taking SOOO long for books to be released!
Pre-ordered Rock Addiction and now getting ready to start it.
I know I was waiting to read Push until next book came out. I’m like Amy I HATE cliffhangers!! Does the story conclude in #2 or will there be a #3??
Thanks for the update Maryse!!
