OH MY!!! Meghan March just announced her new series and THAT fabulous cover reveal, and all three books (it’s a trilogy) are already up for preorder (one coming out per month starting THIS month, so not too long to wait!!), and any series called “Anti-Heroes” has me excited!!!!

About book #1:

New Orleans belongs to me.
You don’t know my name, but I control everything you see—and all the things you don’t.
My reach knows no bounds, and my demands are always met.
I didn’t need to loan money to a failing family distillery, but it amuses me to have them in my debt.
To have her in my debt.
She doesn’t know she caught my attention.
She should’ve been more careful.
I’m going to own her. Consume her. Maybe even keep her.
It’s time to collect what I’m owed.
Keira Kilgore, you’re now the property of Lachlan Mount.

Book Review – Bad Romance by Heather Demetrios

Bad Romance
*ooooooof!* 4.5 stars. I pretty much highlighted this WHOLE book. It’s eloquent, existential and I am hurting… but it’s Tasha’s hurt that hooked me into this one.

And now I have my own pain to deal with.

Tasha: Bad Romance- really, really good. Definitely heavy triggers for me as I’ve been there before. The beginning and on, I really could see the falling and love and how easy it was to fall into the trap. I’m halfway now and the fighting has really started and because I’m older and wiser and this one scene is so obvious to anyone how unhealthy it is- read more

Reader Confession – I love thrillers but prefer those that are from the victim’s or the villain’s POV…

TODAY’S QUICK HURRICANE IRMA AFTERMATH UPDATE: YAY!!! The electricity is back, and I’m so happy!!!! 😀

Y’all know I LOVE scary stories (especially psych-thrillers). I’ve got quite a few awesome recommendations , and a bunch of new ones on my TBR list that I can’t wait to devour. YAY ME!! But chatting with my book buds, I realized something.

I’m not really into the “cop/detective” perspectives in this genre (mind you… I love a good officer-in-uniform romance. Tee hee!!) 😉 But when it comes to mysteries and thrillers and jaw-dropping, twisty stories, I’m really only drawn to those that are completely told (or play out) from a victim’s perspective. And yep. Even the villain’s perspective. *shivers* Ooooooh how I LOVE THOSE, because they’re just so raw and gritty and terrifying, no matter who’s head your in! read more

Book Review – Too Late by C. Hoover

By 6 Comments

Too Late
HOLY MOLY that was stressful!!! The entire book… from start to finish had me on the edge of my seat, my stomach churning with nerves, and adrenaline coursing through my body, as I lived the slowly building nightmare with Sloan. A panic attack inducer for sure. Yet another one from Colleen Hoover that had me pacing and trying to catch my breath at 2am.

Pia: Asa, the hero, is just so bad – I mean really really bad in a bad way. I cannot say it often enough – read it read it read it :-) read more
