Ahhhhhh LOOKIT WHAT WE HAVE!!! A brand spanking new Travis Maddox super-fan. 😀 Rebaica has just discovered the wonder of Beautiful Disaster and has fallen in love with my original ultimate book boyfriend Travis (btw… he’s still MINE!!) 😉 and she’s needing more like him.

Honestly, I am surrounded by these pseudo-intellectuals who judge me for being a sappy-romantic-pining-novel lover but I read some of your reviews and now I know there are more people like me. read more

Casey is looking for this book. GASP!!!!!!! That title says it all. 😉 HOLY. MOLY. But I don’t think I’ve read it. Have you?

She asks:

I read a book about a high school aged girl who used to play piano, but quit because her father had an affair with her best friend.

Her next door neighbor was a bad boy love interest, her dad took down the basketball goal because it made too much noise.

Please help me! It’s driving me crazy, and I want to read it again. It was awesome!

Thank you! read more

By Leave a Comment

Tracey was desperately looking for a MOB BOSS one, and then she answered her own question when she found it!

That said, in case this one might interest some of you (or in case you were trying to remember it, too), I thought I’d post it.

She asked:

I’m going crazy looking for a book. I read the blurb – downloaded the sample on my kindle and then instead of buying it, I accidentally deleted the sample! Can you and your posses help me please?

The heroine is the daughter of a mob boss (?) who leads a very sheltered life. She gets sent away and ends up in New Orleans (?) and meets a tattoo artist. read more

L.A. Fiore – Beautifully Damaged Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE! EACH BOOK IN THIS SERIES IS SUPER-BARGAIN PRICED TODAY!!!

I remember back in the early “indie new adult” days how much this book was talked about. Readers were loving it, hooked on the angsty romance fighter angle, but some were struggling with the editing issues. It’s been re-edited since then and picked up by a publisher… and now it’s a series!

Shawna: I read Beautifully Damaged when it first came out and I couldn’t put it down. It was very good and boy does it have a big secret. It’s intense, stay up all night intense, and I highly recommend it! read more
