<— BREAKING NEWS UPDATE! New release to add to this list! I haven’t read this series yet, but I can’t deny the covers have me intrigued and this is book #4! Let me know if you’ve read these books so far —-> Fallen (Blood & Roses Book 4) by Callie Hart.
Hrmm… I wonder what I’m gonna read? 😉 LOL!!! OBVIOUS! —>
So yes, I *squirreled* this one right to the top (even though I was reading something else in the meantime). But, you know…. in a way, it was pre-positioned in the #1 spot on my TBR list, even before it’s release. Anything Kristen Ashley is pretty much straight to the top of my reading list.
Soooo….. what are you guys reading next? Lots to choose from, and of course, our extensive TBR lists have a ton that are calling to us, too… don’t they. I’m posting my TBR list shortly… It’s… BIG, and I have to try and “re-order” it.
And here are just a few from the list that are making my one-clicker antsy. Like Call Series Boxset (The whole series bundled at a super-bargain price!! They were once into each other, she’s now an escort, and he’s now her client!! Actually I DID one-click that one!), Allure (all sorts of crazy – including one forbidden issue in this one), Trapped (he comes back to finally be a father to their child, after having left her), The Price to Love (surrogate mother living in their home, and *issues*… eeeeep!)
P.S. Let me know if I’m missing any or if you loved any (from this list or elsewhere).
P.P.S. Don’t have a Kindle? No problem! Amazon offers various free Kindle apps and a free Kindle Cloud reader for any and ALL of us to use. You can either use the free Kindle App for your smartphone, tablet, AND your desktop computer (just like you’re using a Kindle, but right through your web browser <— No need to download anything! )
BARGAINS (NOTE: bargain priced when I added them, but prices can change on Amazon, so make sure to check before you finalize your order).
Call Series Boxset by Emma Hart <— SERIES BUNDLE ALERT!! —> Remember this one? The Call Series by Emma Hart. Yep!!!
“She’s a high class call girl. He’s taking over his father’s business.
Seven years ago, they fell in love in Paris.
They walked away at the end of the summer, never imagining they’d meet again.
Now he’s her client. ” <—- *eeeeeeep!!!* Sounds so good!!

What Andy doesn’t count on, as he tracks down the young man who fathered Gabriel, as well as Laura’s estranged parents, is that a whole host of problems are about to be unleashed.”
- Completely Wrecked by Shayne McClendon <— Jenna recommends this one for crying! 😉 “Maryse, I just finished another really good tear-jerker – Completely Wrecked by Shayne McClendon.” AND!! She asks for more tear-jerker suggestions: “I would love to know what books your followers have read that made them ball their eyes out (the type of sobbing, ugly cry that comes from bittersweet heartbreak only a good romance novel can deliver). Share!“
- Pierced (Lucian & Lia Book 1) by Sydney Landon <— ESCORT!! “Lia Adams is a college student who has suffered through years of abuse at home to get to where she is today. She has done whatever was necessary to survive, including working as an escort for Date Night to pay for her education. Her life changes forever the day that Lucian Quinn’s friend convinces him to hire an escort for an important business dinner.“
The Saint: The Original Sinners Book 5 by Tiffany Reisz <— not bargain priced, but just recently released and HIGHLY recommended by so many of our fellow readers (P.S. Here is the The Original Sinners Reading Order Guide):
Sadie: The Saint by Tiffany Reisz is my favorite book this year so far. If you guys haven’t read the Original Sinners series, or if you stopped after book 1, you must continue. It’s one of my favorite series and the Saint was 5+ stars for me.
Michelle: OMG!!! I didn’t even know book 5 was out. I LOVE Soren (who would have guessed? I absolutely hated him at first)…. thank you for posting this, I one-clicked it and will be reading like mad tonight!!! Yes, I agree, a fantastic series.
Sadie: I loved it so much Michelle! It’s technically a prequel…the first in a series called the white years. But I think it’s my favorite of anything she has written. It has a little bit of everything. It fills in so many blanks and adds to much to their story. Young Soren, Nora and Kingsley – OMG it’s a trip!
Carol: Oh yeaaah!!! LOVE doesn’t even starts to cover how i feel about it!!!
Tracie: The Original Sinners series is bar none one of the best series out there, and The Saint was just brilliant. I read it from start to finish in one sitting if I could give it 100 stars I would. The dialogue was just outstanding, Soren, King and Nora are some of the best characters ever written.
Lori: I loved the Saint, it was perfect, just perfect!! Young Soren *sigh and I was really falling for King… Cannot wait for his book!

Jenna, Broken Wings by Erica Ashby is absolutely gut-wrenching. I’ve never cried like that during a book.
Allure has definitely been placed at the top of my TBR list, and it looks like I need to move up The ‘Burg series on my list as well! After her Fantasyland series, I’m hooked on her books.
I’m trying to get through Unattainable so I can start Unbeloved. I say “trying” because I’m not enjoying being in Tegen’s head. At all. I’m almost halfway through, so I am hoping it changes. But Cage? *drool* All I can picture is Charlie Hunnam’s Jax. 😛
Add my name to the fangirls of Tiffany Reisz’s The Saint. Love her writing. Love the characters, even when “we’re not supposed to” love them. Original. Spicy. Whew, and the smut… killer! Definitely a 5 star! Cannot wait for the next installment in the series!
Just devoured The Saint, by Tiffany Reisz, it’s number 5 in the Original Sinners series. Couldn’t put it down. It’s the story of Nora and Soren, and how it all began when she was just 15. I squirmed a lot. In a good way. Just reminded me how much I loved this series. Not for the faint of heart. And now…. The Promise, by Kristen Ashley…. ONWARD! (what a great week it’s turning out to be).
Amy I thought I was the only one who thought that. I think the Tegan who left would’ve been awesome, but the girl in the book just wasn’t likeable to me. :\
I am in a funk reading wise. I recently finished The Game novels by Jessica Clark, which I loved, but now nothing sounds good. I hate when this happens. At least in a week I’ll have Book of Life, but I need something now!
Oh yeah!! Tegan and I did not mesh much, either… I remember feeling that way, too.
Cheryl…
You asked me and Amy a makeup question (or cool product question a few days ago on another post). I can’t find it. GAH!!
Bring it back here so we can indulge. 😀
Oh! I think I remember. It was about mascara right? I wear Yves St. Laurent “Effets Faux Cils” and sometimes Dior “Show” in “Blackout”… although my last batch was flaky of that one…
I’m always in for which mascara is someone’s holy grail, so let me know. I love trying news ones out. Mascara is a MUST for me and my see-through lashes.
Oh good, it’s not just me having a hard time with Tegen!
As for ugly-cry books…Maryse, what was that book that a few of us read which made us cry, and you thought it was funny until it did the same thing to you? Something about Rain…
Ooooh, makeup talk! YSL EFC mascara is wonderful, and EFC Shocking in deep black is absolutely *perfect* with smokey eyes. Those two and Urban Decay Big Fatty mascara are staples for me! (Maryse got me hooked on the YSL mascara 😉 )
I got it! When It Rains by Lisa DeJong. I couldn’t breathe through my nose after that one.
Big fatty mascara sounds like exactly what I want!!
You would love it, Maryse! No spider leg lashes. Aw man, now I want to make a Sephora run and do some shopping! I know, I’ll have a couple of summer martinis and then will have no choice but to stay home. It’s 5:00 somewhere, right?? 😉
Hell, I need the martinis just to finish with Tegen. 😛
LOL! It’s well past 5:00 now. Bring on an apple caramel martini! Yummmmmmmmmmy!
I didn’t like Tegen either….I wanted Cage to end up with someone else. I haven’t read the latest in that series, not sure I will…I just don’t really care about Dorothy, Jax and Hawk.
So excited to start The Promise…I’m scared I’ve hyped it up too much in my head, been waiting forever for this story.
I didn’t know Take was coming out today, but YAH! Loved the first book.
So many great books have come lately, I get stressed trying to pick what to read. (Total first world problem, poor me lol)
Maryse- yes my question was about mascara. Yeh- Sephora here I come; I’ll meet you there Amy!! Really needed a great mascara and can’t wait to try the one’s you both recommended. Thanks!! 😉
Allure sounds good and has great reviews, but second-guessing after reading Fabi’s comments. Also, the rec of KA’s Heaven and Hell on the KA post had me look at the blurb and it sounds really good especially when one of the reviewers said the H reminds her of Tate- loving that since I’m reading Sweet Dreams now and crushing on bad-a** Tate!! <3
Books 1 & 1.5 of the Scorpio Stinger MC by Jani Kay (book 2 out today) is bundled @ $.99.
PERKOPOLIS is a 40% coupon code at Kobo.com, I used it to buy KA’s The Promise, and Hudson, among lots of others. It can be used multiple times, you just have to do one purchase at a time.
Mmmmm, apple caramel martini… *looks at clock* 😛
OMG, Maryse! I’m reading King’s by Mimi Jean P. 😀 This book surprised me in a GOOD way. I think i’m dying of heat here. This book is soooo HOT and a total enigma 🙂 You’re going to love it!
Marit, thanks for the heads up. It’s on my TBR list so I’m going to read it next. Finishing up The Traveler now.
One clicked Pierced by Sydney Landon today and tore through it since I had the day off. Just a forewarning….ugh…cliffhanger…
Read the Callie Hart Blood & Roses series! I am enjoying them immensely.
Fast paced, interesting and hot characters, serious bad boy alpha, unpredictable twists.
Some of the scenes have not left my mind – I really enjoy her writing. No skim reading at all. In fact I think re-reading is in order…
Finishing Sweet Dreams- LOVE Tate- he is the ultimate Alpha male. I really don’t know what to read next. All of KA’s series overwhelm me; too many which makes me tempted to not stick to the series reading order or one series and read the other two you recommended and the Heaven & Hell one. OR stick to my Alpha bad*** theme and read Surviving Raine…
Maryse & Amy- Got the YSL EFC mascara. While at Sephora, Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara was rec’d by 3 workers -who said liked better than YSL. Got both since Too Faced was a reward. Also Buxom lip gloss in Mai Tai- yummy orangey summer color. Now off to compare my mascaras. 😉
Buxom’s are my FAVORITE!!!!! Tingly beautiful delicious color-gloss that stays ON! And when it finally fades, it still looks good.
I *have* to try that one – even if only for the name. 😛 I’m anxious to see how it works for you, Cheryl. Oh! Urban Decay (yep, I’m obsessed with UD) has a new mascara coming out on 7/13 called Perversion, and in the description is says, “So intense you might need a safe word.” *snicker* Ooooh, my Book Dom is gonna be jeal-ous!
Okay, I’m starting Allure now. I need a break from the MC guys before beginning Unbeloved…Tegen freaking drained me. 😉
Thank you for sharing Perfectly Normal! Your support is definitely appreciated! I love your book lists, and to be included is an honour. 🙂
