Okay today’s list is one of the hardest on me, in terms of too many awesome-looking books I want to read now. At the same time! I now have at least 4 books on here that are battling for my next read. Eeeeep!! I love when that happens. Lots of MMA guys, a few books being compared (feel-wise) to Beautiful Disaster and Thoughtless (magic words to me!), extra adamant reader-recommendations. Even one from J.R. Ward’s BDB series is on here!!!
NOTE: bargain priced when I added them, but prices can change on Amazon, so make sure to check before you finalize your order.
P.S. Let me know if Iβm missing any or if you loved any.Β

- Arsen. A broken love storyΒ by Mia Asher <— this one made my TOP 5 summer reads list, and so many LOVE the crazy angst such as Athena: “5+++++ Arsen by Mia Asher…I can’t write right now…just read it! What to do after such intensity??!!” and Jennifer: ”Β It took me a few days to get over that book!!!” and Cori: “Stayed up late last night to finish this one. Wow. I can’t stop thinking about it…” (see my review)
I Surrender (I Surrender Trilogy Book 1)Β by Monica James <— back on the reader recommendations list after I got this adamant email from Bianca (and now I’m even more antsy. Welcome to the next book in my what to read next, list): “I stayed up untilΒ 5:30amΒ this morning reading ‘I surrender’ after seeing Angela’s recommendation on yourΒ WednesdayΒ night post … Maryse you have to read it!!! I don’t even know where to start. I fell in love with Jasper and just when I thought I couldn’t fall in love with him any more he would go and say or do something else and my heart would flutter all over again!! It was an infuriating read and I wanted to slap Eva something silly. It was everything we love in a story BUT it has a cliff hanger which resulted in me crying in frustration!!! And can I say that I am not an emotional reader, well unless its ‘Heart on a chain’ or ‘Wishing for someday soon,’ but unless there is emotional or physical abuse to children I generally don not cry! This story is a combination of thoughtless, beautiful disaster and probably every other book we love. If I had a choice between Kellan, Travis or Jasper I would be absolutely torn!!” <— all I can say is O.M.G. I WANNA READ IT NOW!!!
- Unforgiven by Elizabeth Finn <— not bargain priced but I just received two adamant recommendations from Tiffany: “You need to add Unforgiven by Elizabeth Finn to your List!! New release and it is Fantastic!! Just finished and want to read it all over again!!!” and Catherine: ” if you haven’t started on Unforgiven by Elizabeth Finn yet then put it on your next tbr. It’ll absolutely shatter your heart but in a good way.” —> “Can Darren find a way to move past the pain and forgive the woman he once cared so much for before his anger consumes them both? Or will he drag them both into the hell of an unforgiven past?“
- Obsession (The Plus One Chronicles) <– book #3 was JUST released today!! Ready for more UFC type men? Lisa loves this series! “Jennifer Lyon book 3 is out Obsession (The Plus One Chronicles), it has a Tiffany Snow vibe minus a brother but Sloan makeups in being a Alpha, and he once was a UFC fighter. This is the third and final book I believe. Someone recommended a couple of weeks ago and I got hooked…“
- The Proposition (The Plus One Chronicles) <— Here is book #1 (also adamantly recommended in past lists) and
- Possession (The Plus One Chronicles) <— book #2 (tons of GREAT reviews!). I gotta get on these!

Past Imperfect by Alison Bailey has a synopsis! https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18405372-past-imperfect
Thanks!! Painted Faces by L.H. Crosway is currently free!! It’s not a recently released book but it’s a definite read, and with a price like that? Why would you not 1-click it?
I finished When It Rains yesterday too & cried my eyes out too! Sigh! So good though!
I walked around yesterday moping at work, and kept wondering why I felt so lonely… and remembered. Oh right. I cried this morning. π
I never see a weekly freebies list anymore. Are you still doing it? I enjoyed it as a introduction to authors I had not yet read.
I finished When it Rains yesterday too, I cried , cried rivers of tears… made me think about everything, think about things we take for granted. Will take very long time to forget about this book, I’m sure I will never forget. I will ‘re read it one day. This one is a very good one.
So happy I surrender made your list!!! That seriously had me going crazy for days and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did and there is a second book but it comes out on the 21st!!
I read Beneath the Burn this summer. Rock star stuff isn’t on my radar but Pam Godwin is. I loved this book. I love Pam’s writing style. This is only her second book but Wow! She is an author to watch for. This story had a lot of angst. Erotic and just a bit kinky. If you love to hate bad guys the bad guy in this story is definitely worth hating. I highly recommend this book. I gave it 5 stars. If you read this book and read her author bio you will see that she writes what she knows. 99 cents for this book is the steal of the year.
Just started Worth the Fight by Vi Keeland! So excited about it. I loved the Cole series that she did!
Ha! I’m so glad I’m not the only one who bawled over When It Rains. With books I have cried and ugly cried, but with When It Rains I FUGLY cried and was a mess! Didn’t I tell you that I felt? Yeah, THAT (among other things) was what I felt. I wasn’t expecting all of that. And now I feel like crying again…
Oh Amy I was thinking I was the only one feel like cry again.
I’m right there with ya on Worth the Fight! Woo-Hoo, Happy Friday π
I have to agree. I am loving Club Sin too!! Definitely worth the read!!
I know you read, reviewed and recommended Painted Faces by L.H. Cosway last December, just wanted to let everyone know that the Kindle edition is free on Amazon today. Happy reading π
Driven and sequel Fueled are absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!
I have to second the recommendation for Only for You by Genna Rulon. It was definitely superb for a first novel, and the story kept me intrigued.
Nope Lia, I’m right there with you, and I’m sure we’re not the only ones. π
Only For You is working out great for me so far!!
You are missing out on this book : https://www.amazon.com/Rose-of-Thorne-ebook/dp/B00FEPGGJ0/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1380062065&sr=1-1&keywords=mia+michelle

1st time (poster)/ long time (fan)! Love your blog! I just finished Unforgiven by Elizabeth Finn. Whoa, it was AMAZING! This book was steamy and spicy and gut wrenching and everything in between. 5 star read for me and I read everything I can get my hands on… Get your tissues and READ this BOOK!
Just finished Worth the Fight. AMAZING. I need to start a journal just to keep up with all my fantasy boyfriends. Nico;)))))) MMA fighter and soooo yuuuummy. Loved all the characters in this read and that doesn’t happen often. Xoxo
Thank you for the recommendation avidRDR
I’m 22% into unforgiven and I am hooked! I think I’ll be finishing this one tonight! No sleep for me! Perfect flow of writing just what I love in a book! π
Thank you so much for mentioning me π
I am deeply disappointed to see that my comment that was “waiting for moderation” was deleted.
No comment was deleted. It is still “waiting for moderation”, as we received a bunch of them, regarding the same book, from various commenters at roughly the same time.
I stand corrected. My apologies.
Happy that Moore to Lose made the list. I am crazy about the series and can’t wait to find out how it ends.
